So, it’s out, Avatar’s trailer, the best place to see it is on the Apple site in HD, here. Does it look impressive? Yes. Do the CGI characters move well and have emotion in their eyes? Yes.
Do they still look like CGI? Yes.
Does it look a bit like WoW the movie? Yes.
Small screen never helps as that makes the CGI look more obvious. Having said that I liked the first Final Fantasy film so will probably watch this one.
As ever the detractors will be comparing it to live action while failing to ackowledge that they don’t mind the shoddy blue screens in older films or the special effects in Metropolis.
