Welcome to Salty Popcorn - my site dedicated to expressing my opinion on films. Most of the reviews I read in the paper make me angry that they are either all so negative or I completely disagree with them. So now it's my turn. I hope you enjoy it and if you do sign up for updates on the left hand side. Thanks for stopping in!! PLEASE NOTE: My scoring of films is now based on an "Out of 10" score. The meeting of two personalities is like the contact of two chemical substances: if there is any reaction, both are transformed. Carl Jung (1875 - 1961)

Avatar is Returning to Cinemas


Twentieth Century Fox and James Cameron announced on July 8th that AVATAR: SPECIAL EDITION will be released in cinemas on August 26, in a limited engagement and exclusively in Digital 3D and IMAX 3D.

This version of Cameron's history-making and groundbreaking epic will include more than eight minutes of new footage. Since - and largely as of result of -- AVATAR'S release last December, the number of available digital 3D screens has exploded, and moviegoers who missed experiencing the film in 3D will now have that opportunity.

Commented James Cameron: "Audiences repeatedly told me they wanted more of Pandora, and wished they could have stayed there longer. So we're making that possible. AVATAR: SPECIAL EDITION will be exclusively in 3D, and will have eight minutes of never before seen footage, including new creatures and action scenes. Whether you already love the movie, or you've never seen it, with this Special Edition, you'll be seeing it like never before."

Commented Fox Filmed Entertainment chairmen and CEOs, Jim Gianopulos and Tom Rothman: "AVATAR: SPECIAL EDITION is especially gratifying, because not only has AVATAR become one of the most beloved films in history, but after its initial theatrical release, we have been inundated with requests to re-release the film in theaters in 3D. Equally important, we're thrilled that Jim Cameron is able to give audiences even more of what they loved about AVATAR."

The Oscar and Golden winning epic is the highest grossing film of all time, taking in over $2.7 billion in worldwide box office, with this re-release it is sure to break 3 BILLION. It is also the top-selling Blu-ray disc of all time. Director James Cameron takes audiences to a spectacular world beyond imagination, where a reluctant hero embarks on a journey of redemption and discovery as he leads a heroic battle to save a civilization. AVATAR delivers a fully immersive cinematic experience of a new kind, where the revolutionary technology invented to make the film disappears into the emotion of the characters and the epic nature of the story.

Cool, my wife and I had planned to see it a third time at the Darling Harbour IMAX ... so now we can!
(Forget the IMAX at Entertainment Quarter, it's very disappointing.)

I actually prefer the one at Entertainment Quarter - screen is not too big and I love the sound. But I haven't seen it at Darling Harbour - will have to go and give it a viewing there. You are going to see it a 3rd time???? Didn't you loathe this one?

Precisely my gripe, it's not very big, in fact it's barely bigger than a V-max screening ... and you're paying a pretty penny for it too. I can't wait to get the back middle seat (best seats in the house) at IMAX Darling Harbour, for total immersion!!!!
For the record, I love the cinema ride of the movie, but as far as a story and characters go, it's pedestrian and deeply derivative at best.

(btw, urls for Loved Ones and Candwich weren't working)

I had to change both those posts - and repost - probably why originals not working - had comments on both so def up - probably access from homepage or sidebar.

Will def suss DH Imax for the rerelease. I prefer smaller screens - most of the extremely large ones lose their colour strenghth
