The Avatar trailer looks pretty intense. James Cameron is directing, so it should be worth checking out.

Cameron's Avatar. The trailer looked good but it wasnt groundbreaking like the articles made it out to be. Still, the story is very similiar to District 9 so it should be interestin

I guess I'm in the minority on Cameron's trailer. I saw it on the big screen tonight and didn't like the look of the film. I'm sure I'll probably see it, and maybe it'll be something spectacular when viewed in 3-D, but I had higher expectations based on what I've heard about it over the years.

I haven't liked a Shyamnalan movie since Unbreakable and haven't seen one since The Village, so I'll probably pass on Airbender completely.

Did you see that trailer in an Imax theater because from that statement it looked like they were showing the trailer in regular theaters?

They both look like crap.

I swear with all the "secrecy" surrounding Cameron's Avatar, and this "revolutionary new 3D film-making technique" that I heard about it could be the most over-hyped movie ever. I saw that trailer and wasn't even remotely interested. You know what it looks like? A video game, a bad one at that.

The Shyamalan one is based off an anime. It also doesn't look that interesting. This is the first time Shyamalan has ever adapted something from another source (to my knowledge) so it shouldn't be like everything else he's done.

Like I said I don't intend to see either of them, but I guess if I had to pick between the two I'd pick Airbender.
