Avatar re released already???!!!

[DL 44 Blaster]

I haven't seen it yet and just picked up the DVD at our local ACME today, 'cause it came with a box of Pop Secret and box-of-choice-candy and $4 off. The cashier, a young college aged girl, went absolutely bat-****-crazy over this movie. She picked up the DVD off the counter and said loudly: "BEST MOVIE EVAR!!" and proceeded to go on and on and on and ON about how great it was, that it was being re-released in 3d and how once we see it we'll not want to leave their world:wacko blah, blah, blah.....

Well I about died laughing on the inside. I am a self professed Star Wars geek, but to go nuts to total strangers on a 10 minute monologue is a little eccentric to say the least. My wife, who is the most non-science-fiction person I know had to be the one the cashier was directing her monologue towards, which only fueled my laughter.

So, in closing, I do hope that this movie lives up to the long list of expectations I have of it.

Cameron said that it would be 25 minutes of extra footage.
Also, he said that they had to pull the movie out of most theaters, not because it wasn't still making money but they had to make room for new releases so the studio potentially lost out on many many millions of dollars which could have been made if the film had been left in the theaters.
Hence the decision to re-release.
They can do whatever they want with it, it'll still be a heap of rubbish.
