Scifi, James Cameron's Avatar | featured news

Hundreds of millions of dollars is a lot to spend on a film featuring a bunch of blue aliens -- but that's exactly what Fox Features has done with new 3D sci-fi "Avatar," which the movie studio says is the most expensive production it has ever made.

Take a look at this latest video that aired during last night's Glee.

20th Century Fox has aired a third TV spot for James Cameron's Avatar that includes new footage never seen before. You can watch the TV spot using the player below!

Take a look at the latest viral marketing from James Cameron's film.

James Cameron himself wasn’t happy that the Avatar online trailer preceded the Avatar Day IMAX 3-D screenings on Friday. The reason that happened, according to Fox, is that the trailer went out at the same time as the first 10 AM screenings in New Zealand on the other side of the world. It was a synchronous global release. The Apple site was so overwhelmed with clicks that it crashed at first.

Earlier this morning, we discussed how Twitter (Twitter) can either sink a movie or make it a success. James Cameron’s newest creation, Avatar, isn’t due out until December, but the release of its trailer this morning on Apple’s website (and announced on Twitter) seems likely to make it perhaps the most discussed movie-not-due-out-for-4-months we’ve ever seen.

Avatar Day's main attraction gets moved ahead a day to appease eager fans.

When James Cameron directed his first 3-D film, “Terminator 2: 3-D,” for Universal Studios theme parks more than a decade ago, the bulky camera equipment made some shots awkward or impossible.

James Cameron unveiled the first publicly shown clips from his $300 million 3-D sci-fi actioner "Avatar" on Tuesday at Cinema Expo.
