THE book? I am interested. What book and how much? Hopefully Alan Dean Foster didn’t do a novelization. I hate his movie novels.
They still have organs between their bones guys.
It’s just a little guide book. Not a novel. http://www.amazon.com/Avatar-Confidential-Biological-History-Camerons/dp/0061896756/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1262468415&sr=1-2 And it’s only $10 and some change. It’s a fun little read & look if you want to know more.

got the book for christmas and its really cool. really makes you realize this movie could have easily been 2 or 3. theres so much information they didn’t directly include but sort of hint at or mention. like when jake is talking to eywa “theres no green where they come from” you understand plant life on earth is non existant. then you read the book and it shows the extent of the damage.
I’d been trying to see this movie for like two weeks. Everytime me and my friends went to check it out it was sold out, and we ended up in a titty bar or something…it got to the point where we actually began to hope the shit was sold out just to have an excuse to go to the bars with the money we’d planned to spend at the theater…then I saw it last night…good shit.
I watched about 30 minutes of it today before I got sick. I’ve never gotten sick in a movie before.
Sad thing was, it wasn’t even the 3D version. Gonna try again tomorrow.
Cameron had to cut a few scenes, since the movie was already 2 and a half hours long in the edited version. If you really wanna see Na’vi have sex, you will be able to see it on the DVD.
Also, there were some interesting changes from the original script outline, which you can read about here:

Spoiler
While Avatar has Jake running from a couple of monsters, Project 880 is way more involved. First, Josh is snatched by a Medusa, a huge flying jellyfish, which takes him off the floating mountain on which the team is working. As Josh tries to get free the team follows in their chopper, which gets crashed by a leonoptyrx (the huge dragon that Jake rides at the end of the movie). Josh kills the Medusa, but ends up in a tree made of snake heads. Then he ends up meeting the animals that Jake meets in Avatar, but he has less of a chase with the Manticore (that’s 880’s version of the Thanator).

sex part

I figured when I saw that scene that the mating would involve the hair link anyways. All the other stuff was just extra :wonder:
Watched it. It was decent. Predictable as hell though. Jake was getting on my fucking nerves at first. He was just doing or saying stupid shit.
Come on, now…like you don’t know any white guys that don’t have that problem. Everybody knows at least one.

Sorry only read this page, so I don’t know if its been posted, but its finally taken its place amongst the top 4 grossing movies EVAH.
- :bluu:
looking forward to that.
lol @ the original script idea. I’m glad they changed the rainforest from “Jumanji” to “Fern Gully”
I also snickered at the possibility of Na’vi having USB genitalia.
Actually I don’t.
I like “truly weird” in Alien movies, because it’s much more realistic than “a rhinoceros with a hammerhead shark head”. That’s not weird, that’s just a combination of two animals we know. Shit like throwing your head at enemies, which is actually its young… that’s outside the realm of human experience, and much more likely. I was really disappointed that the alien animals were just basically bigger versions of earth creatures with more eyes.
Beautiful looking movie, but predictable. I enjoyed it a lot though.
I was holding in my laughter when Sully was riding in on that HUGE DINOSAUR BIRD
All of the Na’vi were like “LOOK AT THE SIZE OF HIS HUGE PENIS!!!”
I enjoyed it
Holy crap…I never thought of it like that. A lot of the females and smaller males were all flocking to touch him when he got off his new ride…
