i watched the gameplay video and almost puked, just searched for this game so i could warn you ... this game looks like a total fail, its like they rushed making it .. also it looks like its gonna fail like the eragon video game, which sucked arse, more than the movie even.
just saying, Star wars sucked, Star Trek sucked... the only good part about star wars was the police force of the galaxy :P the rest of it was shitty sword fighting and politics, if I wanted diplomatic resolution I'd be watching the news, fags!!!
Wow, this is just awesome movie I watched + downloaded full movie in fantastic High Quality at movies\999\.\com (remove slashes) for free.......... good quality too..
The animation? and effects in this film are what makes it so fantastic and a must see! i was just glued to the screen lol such a great movie, you can see it where i did at : NEW/MOVIEZ/./INFO (remove slashes)
You may be able to watch this incredible video at all these free spamware sites but watching such an epic movie on a little computer screen while the site installs some macros onto your computer is stupid. Spend the money- see it in Imax 3d- It's worth it
how fucked would it be to play a game with 3d glasses!?!?!!? especially if its a thriller were things jump out at u, hot damn i just exploded in my pants!!!
Oh and for all those who think James Cameron was unoriginal in his movie, he made the movie up 10 years before he even started to direct it, so any movies that came out between that time don't count.
@cod5ki11er fallout 3 was bethesda... and most games made by ubisoft are pretty linear. Tomclancy, prince of persia, the only exception i can think of is assassins creed. But yes, my testicles are tingling at the thought of this game too.
yeh ikno all they seem tobe doing is concentrating on halo and halo suks but i used to love it bak in its day but they just need to end dat shit cuz its just getting boring (been ther done that) but still bungie shud bring new games. peace
1:43 through 1:52 is right on. truthfully i thinks it safe to say that, thats one or even the only reason gamers and movie watchers all over the world play games and watch movies not only for the entertainment but also for the feeling of being able to escape to a world that you can control.... well you know, as far as the story goes.
it looks like its taken from every game you could even say teh choppers from halo 3 which was released earlier than time shift and even the helis from terminator which the movie director directed...
he is talking about that the game world story is not the same as the one in the movie, not about being pioneers in creating mithical worlds...heh..and Ubisoft is just amazing...
" what makes Avatar so exicting is that we've created a whole new world". What? So we've never seen movies set in another world before? Star Wars, Lord of the Rings, Narnia etc. don't count?
true. but I still don't see how it makes Avatar so special. I mean, it still looks epic! but James Cameron hasen't done anything to new for the story or setting.
@MythicDude I think he doesn't mean that Cameron created the world of the movie for the very first time, he just means that he made it.... of here is a part of advertising and promotion but it's not lye...
He wrote the story 14 years ago. The conceptual work was done by two teams, one from Ubisoft, and one from whatever vendor or personal crew James is using. A lot of the conceptual work for the movie came from James' own ideas, so any similarities in that respect are likely coincidental. The Navi' possess distinct differences from the night elves of warcraft lore, in that they resemble felines and other animalia...although his scifi universe is VERY similar to many that already exist.
Will HAL be there? What about Frodo. Will there be dwarfs and trolls fighting star ship troopers. I just feel this has the design sense of Peter Griffin directing his "chick movie". One thing I didnt see were Transformers and sense they put everything else in this gumbo why didn't they go all out. I hope Predator shows up and maybe Raptors its been about two weeks sense we have seen any Raptors besides T-Rex needs a break he was in like 5 movies last year and is risking overexpose.
I am one who is easily impressed but I find what I see from this movie hard not to pick apart. Also I think the game producer is jumping the gun with the star wars comparison. Not saying it wont be a good movie I just know when I watch it I will feel like I'm watching actions scenes spliced together from everything else from sci fi and fantasy.

if you dont believe me just read the epic of gilgamesh or the mahabarata. or just read the book of urantia. or just read or watch some research from zecharia sitchin.
sitchin's theory on creation is actually quite interesting. i heard it was fake and the sumerian tablets he based his research off of were hoaxes though.
well i saw the trailor and it looks good. all of the videogames followed the events of the movie. this one doesnt, they can do whatever they want without worrying of trailin 'off topic'
eh most movie games dont follow the exact story line of the movies otherwise theyd be an hour long. Superman returns video game had bizarro, metallo, etc etc. same with the hulk game, batman begins game.
You Idiots. You can't just choose whatever game company you want to make your game. "Oh why didn't they choose crytek or bethesda" WTF you can't touch crytek or bethesda. they have bigger and better plans than this shit...
well assians creed was good by ubisoft ....but there new stuff is look like shit they need to put more time in to games.... like assians creed.. i dont agree with the game idea its a waste of your money ... now call duty modern warfare 2 is worth your money
UbiSoft sucks big time. You got a problem with a game by them, just try and get help. You have a suggestion or complaint, you can't contact them worth a crap. Worst game company customer relations there is. You can bet, I'm not buying it no matter how good it looks. Just 'cause it's by UbiSoft. They should have gone with Bethesda (Fallout 3, ES: Oblivion) or Ascalon from Germany (Sacred 2). They are right there if you have problem. UbiSoft sucks!!!!
From all the game development studios out there they chose Ubioft. Motherfucking Ubisoft. Why not the awesome CryTek from Germany or Capcom? I do not understand it.
by what i said about them being crap meen all they can do are arcade type games were you get a letter grade after beating a mission and getting points
I hate this jiggly fat fuck Jon Landau. He has skewered the potential of so many possibly great movies in his career, in fact that list is longer than the ones he's produced. I find it a miracle that the Avatar film even got made with this bumbling fucking idiot controlling the money. But that's probably thanks to the creative inertia that Jim Cameron commands. Anyway, back to my story: FUCK JON LANDAU, FUCK THAT FAT FUCKING WORTHLESS HOLLYWOOD DOLT, FUCK HIM FUCK HIM FUCK HIM. K, I feel better.
I saw the 15 minute trailer at my local Imax. I've also read "Call Me Joe". There is a vaguely passing resemblance in the broad concept, but that's about it. I think the same issue came up when "Independence Day" was accused of using the viral upload idea from 3001:Final Odyssey.
Long story short, Avatar is a unique story. The trailers on the net are 1/100th the effect of seeing it on Imax. I think one day people are going to look at it as milestone movie like Star Wars and Matrix are now.
one of the trailers i watched looked to much like halo like those hover craft (Hornets/Hawks) and the bigger ones could be pelicans/vultures and those walking things are cyclops if you ever played halo wars dude can be creative and make his own stuff Bungie would be pissed knowing the might make a halo movie.
There's no such thing as "American anime". America rips off of Japan for their anime and dub it (majority of the dubs are just terrible). Avatar is a very well developed american cartoon using Chinese art of fighting, not an anime.
We're talking about dubs you retard. No one said anything about Teen Titans being better than Avatar. alston2real is agreeing with me that dubs are terrible.
wow need to read better i wasnt even talking about that and i know avatar is going to be better i'm talking about dubs lmao but its alright everyone makes mistakes
Teen Titans is not an anime, so it's not really dubbed. They're just sponsored by those two japanese singers (forgot their names...). The reason why dubs sounds terrible is because the Japanese made their series to fit their language. English can't express some things like Japanese can and same the other way around. I think that's why dubs are just terrible.
it usses the western style of drawing and it was drawn in japan before it was sent to america to be colored and edited and even though english languages sound better (i.e. dragonball Z ) they just couldnlt get the feel of it as the japan version lol
Some of you shitheads should actually watch the Last Airbender cartoon before writing it off as gaty or crap. It's far superior to most western animations, from movie to television.
It might be a pretty good movie. But if you have ever read a story called "Call me Joe" by Poul Anderson, you might agree that perhaps James Cameron has read it too. I am sure Cameron wouldn't admit to ripping off Anderson's story...but there are a couple of MAJOR plot devices that are the same. Perhaps Cameron would say "I "riffed off" the story". It wouldn't be the first time Cameron has "riffed off" another writer. Harlan Ellison raised the bullshit flag on "The Terminator".
maybe but he was talking about in a conference that he had this story for about 10-15 years and wanted to create it in an earlier time he just couldn't get the technology so he had it held for quite some time and everyone get inspiration from different stories and stuff i got a lot of inspiration from my game called Xiyon i'm creating but i can see some of the plots you mean
No matter what you write, it will remind someone of something they read before. For two reasons:
1: Stories are universal. All fiction follows the same principles, from the oldest tribal myth to the latest Hollywood movie, stories are allegories of human life. If people cannot relate to a story they will not like it.
2: The human brain is wired to look for similarities in things. That's why you see familiar shapes in the clouds, and say "This movie is like (insert)"
In Anderson's story, from 1957, the main character is Anglesey, a paraplegic living on a space station orbiting Jupiter. His job is to interface with a computer that enhances his ability to establish a telepathic connection with "Joe" , a creature designed to survive on Jupiter. Anglesey, controls "Joe" and is, essentially, inhabiting the creature's body. Anglesey, slowly BECOMES "Joe", refusing to return his conciousness to his crippled body in favor of Joe's healthy one.
True, immitation can be the sincerest form of flattery, but if credit isn't given where it's due, it could be the sincerest form of plagiarism. Some ideas and concepts are NOT so universal. I am not saying that Cameron couldn't have come up with that important plot device on his own. Maybe he did. Anyway, I am sure that "Avatar" will be very different from "Call Me Joe", but I am saying that Cameron may have been inspired by Anderson's story and if so, should credit him for inspiring him.
Maybe he came up with the idea all on his own cause he's never even heard/seen Anderson's work. Ever think about that? Hell, I've written short stories that followed a plot line I hadn't even seen/heard of until AFTER the first hundred pages were written. Hell, Lord of the Rings was a knock off OF a knock off; for fuck sake people. NO idea at this point in human history is truely original, get over it!
Cameron said he got the idea for Avatar from "every single science fiction book I read as a kid"...it would be silly for you to believe he had never heard of Anderson's work.
Cameron had certainly heard of Harlan Ellison's work when he made "The Terminator"...Harlan raised the bullshit flag and the end credits were CHANGED to acknowledge his work.
Cameron is a good director, but some of his screenplays are suspect.
ROFL, fanboy... can't say I've ever been called that before. As far as *Cameron said he got the idea for Avatar from "every single science fiction book I read as a kid"...* is, who's to say he WON'T have acknowledgements in the credits. It ain't even out yet brah, so chill out. 'Sides, what's it to you personally? You lose NOTHING, so you have, in -my- opinion, no right to throw a bitch fit. Deal... with... it.
I never pitched a bitch-fit. I merely said it's possible that Cameron lifted an idea or two from an old story from Poul Anderson. Did he? How the hell would I know? When I read the about Avatar's basic plot, my first thought was "Call Me Joe". You see, the protagonists from both stories are crippled due to occupational injuries, use a scientifically created life-form as an "avatar" to explore another planet and then have to choose between the "avatar" or returning to their crippled bodies.
Those similarities are pretty unique. I am sure there have been plenty of stories that depict the idea of the living, physical avatar but I can only name one other than Cameron's story (but I am sure someone will enlighten me). I am sure there are other depictions, but I am sure none will be so alike as the two stories we are discussing. Mostly, the idea has been used a lot to depict a person in the physical world immersing themselves in a virtual world...
I heard Cameron even based some parts of the plot on Edgar Rise Boroughs' book about John Carter. And it may be true as it has vague allusions to his books. However these are very vague. So I think the movie will for the most part have an original plot.
and not only that, there are MAJOR plot similarities. I am not talking about broad generalizations or concepts. I am talking about specific plot devices and situations. If Anderson were still alive, he might have a pretty strong legal case.
Read the story. Have you done that? If not, maybe you ought to read it before you dismiss the possibility that Cameron has also read it and lifted some important elements from it. And don't just google the plot. Read the actual story.
PS, I'll probably get around to it, seeing as I don't even watch the Idiot Box(IE TV) I've read somewhere in the neighorhood of 100,000 pages of manuscript in the last couple years alone. A book a day for me isn't odd at all. Hell, I forgo SLEEP so I can read more.
As for dismissing the possibility he took the idea, I NEVER DID! I merely threw out the POSSABILTY that he did in fact come up with a plotline paralleling another book.
Goddammit, it's NOT a movie version of "Call Me Joe"? That's disgusting.
I've just started paying attention to "Avatar" in the past few days since the trailer came out, and I automatically assumed it was based directly on the classic story.
Cameron may be a great director but he's got serious ethical problems.
I bet it will be a pretty good movie. But I think it's primarily going to be a vehicle for the new technology Cameron has been working on. And that's okay.
Were you really hoping it would be a film version of "Call Me Joe"? or were you thinking of another story from Poul Anderson written in 1978 called "The Avatar"?
No I was serious. The basic plot is too similar for it to be accidental. Cameron should just admit it and move on. If the fool had bought the movie rights properly, he probably could have got them quite cheaply since it was an old story. Now there may be a lawsuit....
"were you thinking of another story from Poul Anderson written in 1978 called "The Avatar"?"
I don't remember that one although I may still have read it. I read a lot of PoulA back in the 70s...
I remember cover (one of the papberbacks editions) for Anderson's "The Avatar" reminded me of "Star Wars"...I've not read it though ...I have only read a handful of Anderson's stories. But I just read "Call Me Joe" a few months ago and yeah, the similarities between it and Cameron's story are hard to miss. But the movie hasn't come out yet...wait and see.
I am just glad to hear that I am not the only one to see a the similarities.
if people had to credit everyone or everything that inspired them the credits would be longer than the movie itself. Unless he directly copied specific ideas, i see no need.
I saw these really awesome specialized home theater 3d hdtvs and glasses by mitsubishi electronics the other day. It was showing commercials for movies and clips. I thought, why don't they make video games in 3d!? That would kick ass! Well here it is.
the vehicles reminded me sort of halo, not saying they are or that its making me all pissy or anything, i think the game looks super sexy awesome. am i right?
WAHAHAHAHAHHAHA It has nothing to do with the ''occidental animation'' (its fully american produced writed and animated exept for some voices) that you call anime, This is about a new world that humanity has found and it has its own native life form that is being killed by the ''humanity'' suddenly apears a hybrid form of a human an a humanoid native that can change the way the humans see the natives ...
right people who think this is based on the anime its NOT its about an ex military officer who looses his legs or unable to move them and gets put into a virtual world and he is controlling an "AVATAR" thats where the name of the film comes from because its basicaly about an avatar: a virtual you
this isnt the freakin anime avatar its based on a movie coming out and i think it was a book or something, and i dont mean the live action avatar. thats called like last wind bender or some sh t. it just called avatar
from what I've heard about Avatar so far, it doesn't sound like an escape from the "world we live in today" but rather like an eye-candied recapturing of humans most terrifyingly stupid preconceptions.
i watched the gameplay video and almost puked, just searched for this game so i could warn you ... this game looks like a total fail, its like they rushed making it .. also it looks like its gonna fail like the eragon video game, which sucked arse, more than the movie even.

UbiSoft sucks big time. You got a problem with a game by them, just try and get help. You have a suggestion or complaint, you can't contact them worth a crap. Worst game company customer relations there is. You can bet, I'm not buying it no matter how good it looks. Just 'cause it's by UbiSoft. They should have gone with Bethesda (Fallout 3, ES: Oblivion) or Ascalon from Germany (Sacred 2). They are right there if you have problem. UbiSoft sucks!!!!

I hate this jiggly fat fuck Jon Landau. He has skewered the potential of so many possibly great movies in his career, in fact that list is longer than the ones he's produced. I find it a miracle that the Avatar film even got made with this bumbling fucking idiot controlling the money. But that's probably thanks to the creative inertia that Jim Cameron commands. Anyway, back to my story: FUCK JON LANDAU, FUCK THAT FAT FUCKING WORTHLESS HOLLYWOOD DOLT, FUCK HIM FUCK HIM FUCK HIM. K, I feel better.

I saw the 15 minute trailer at my local Imax. I've also read "Call Me Joe". There is a vaguely passing resemblance in the broad concept, but that's about it. I think the same issue came up when "Independence Day" was accused of using the viral upload idea from 3001:Final Odyssey.
Long story short, Avatar is a unique story. The trailers on the net are 1/100th the effect of seeing it on Imax. I think one day people are going to look at it as milestone movie like Star Wars and Matrix are now.

There's no such thing as "American anime". America rips off of Japan for their anime and dub it (majority of the dubs are just terrible). Avatar is a very well developed american cartoon using Chinese art of fighting, not an anime.

alston2reel 2 years ago
Teen Titans is not an anime, so it's not really dubbed. They're just sponsored by those two japanese singers (forgot their names...). The reason why dubs sounds terrible is because the Japanese made their series to fit their language. English can't express some things like Japanese can and same the other way around. I think that's why dubs are just terrible.

It might be a pretty good movie. But if you have ever read a story called "Call me Joe" by Poul Anderson, you might agree that perhaps James Cameron has read it too. I am sure Cameron wouldn't admit to ripping off Anderson's story...but there are a couple of MAJOR plot devices that are the same. Perhaps Cameron would say "I "riffed off" the story". It wouldn't be the first time Cameron has "riffed off" another writer. Harlan Ellison raised the bullshit flag on "The Terminator".
soulcheck4all 2 years ago
maybe but he was talking about in a conference that he had this story for about 10-15 years and wanted to create it in an earlier time he just couldn't get the technology so he had it held for quite some time and everyone get inspiration from different stories and stuff i got a lot of inspiration from my game called Xiyon i'm creating but i can see some of the plots you mean
alston2reel 2 years ago
No matter what you write, it will remind someone of something they read before. For two reasons:
1: Stories are universal. All fiction follows the same principles, from the oldest tribal myth to the latest Hollywood movie, stories are allegories of human life. If people cannot relate to a story they will not like it.
2: The human brain is wired to look for similarities in things. That's why you see familiar shapes in the clouds, and say "This movie is like (insert)"
bongolongo 2 years ago
In Anderson's story, from 1957, the main character is Anglesey, a paraplegic living on a space station orbiting Jupiter. His job is to interface with a computer that enhances his ability to establish a telepathic connection with "Joe" , a creature designed to survive on Jupiter. Anglesey, controls "Joe" and is, essentially, inhabiting the creature's body. Anglesey, slowly BECOMES "Joe", refusing to return his conciousness to his crippled body in favor of Joe's healthy one.
soulcheck4all 2 years ago
True, immitation can be the sincerest form of flattery, but if credit isn't given where it's due, it could be the sincerest form of plagiarism. Some ideas and concepts are NOT so universal. I am not saying that Cameron couldn't have come up with that important plot device on his own. Maybe he did. Anyway, I am sure that "Avatar" will be very different from "Call Me Joe", but I am saying that Cameron may have been inspired by Anderson's story and if so, should credit him for inspiring him.
soulcheck4all 2 years ago
Maybe he came up with the idea all on his own cause he's never even heard/seen Anderson's work. Ever think about that? Hell, I've written short stories that followed a plot line I hadn't even seen/heard of until AFTER the first hundred pages were written. Hell, Lord of the Rings was a knock off OF a knock off; for fuck sake people. NO idea at this point in human history is truely original, get over it!

avendanopaciorek 2 years ago
Do you even know what I am talking about?
Cameron said he got the idea for Avatar from "every single science fiction book I read as a kid"...it would be silly for you to believe he had never heard of Anderson's work.
Cameron had certainly heard of Harlan Ellison's work when he made "The Terminator"...Harlan raised the bullshit flag and the end credits were CHANGED to acknowledge his work.
Cameron is a good director, but some of his screenplays are suspect.
Get over THAT, fanboy.
soulcheck4all 2 years ago
ROFL, fanboy... can't say I've ever been called that before. As far as *Cameron said he got the idea for Avatar from "every single science fiction book I read as a kid"...* is, who's to say he WON'T have acknowledgements in the credits. It ain't even out yet brah, so chill out. 'Sides, what's it to you personally? You lose NOTHING, so you have, in -my- opinion, no right to throw a bitch fit. Deal... with... it.
imthejman85 2 years ago
I never pitched a bitch-fit. I merely said it's possible that Cameron lifted an idea or two from an old story from Poul Anderson. Did he? How the hell would I know? When I read the about Avatar's basic plot, my first thought was "Call Me Joe". You see, the protagonists from both stories are crippled due to occupational injuries, use a scientifically created life-form as an "avatar" to explore another planet and then have to choose between the "avatar" or returning to their crippled bodies.
soulcheck4all 2 years ago
Those similarities are pretty unique. I am sure there have been plenty of stories that depict the idea of the living, physical avatar but I can only name one other than Cameron's story (but I am sure someone will enlighten me). I am sure there are other depictions, but I am sure none will be so alike as the two stories we are discussing. Mostly, the idea has been used a lot to depict a person in the physical world immersing themselves in a virtual world...
What does it all mean? ...Nothing.
soulcheck4all 2 years ago
I heard Cameron even based some parts of the plot on Edgar Rise Boroughs' book about John Carter. And it may be true as it has vague allusions to his books. However these are very vague. So I think the movie will for the most part have an original plot.
MutatedIguana 2 years ago

Rocky1990 2 years ago
and not only that, there are MAJOR plot similarities. I am not talking about broad generalizations or concepts. I am talking about specific plot devices and situations. If Anderson were still alive, he might have a pretty strong legal case.
Read the story. Have you done that? If not, maybe you ought to read it before you dismiss the possibility that Cameron has also read it and lifted some important elements from it. And don't just google the plot. Read the actual story.
soulcheck4all 2 years ago
PS, I'll probably get around to it, seeing as I don't even watch the Idiot Box(IE TV) I've read somewhere in the neighorhood of 100,000 pages of manuscript in the last couple years alone. A book a day for me isn't odd at all. Hell, I forgo SLEEP so I can read more.
As for dismissing the possibility he took the idea, I NEVER DID! I merely threw out the POSSABILTY that he did in fact come up with a plotline paralleling another book.
imthejman85 2 years ago
Goddammit, it's NOT a movie version of "Call Me Joe"? That's disgusting.
I've just started paying attention to "Avatar" in the past few days since the trailer came out, and I automatically assumed it was based directly on the classic story.
Cameron may be a great director but he's got serious ethical problems.

Are you kidding with me?
I bet it will be a pretty good movie. But I think it's primarily going to be a vehicle for the new technology Cameron has been working on. And that's okay.
Were you really hoping it would be a film version of "Call Me Joe"? or were you thinking of another story from Poul Anderson written in 1978 called "The Avatar"?
soulcheck4all 2 years ago
"Are you kidding with me?"
No I was serious. The basic plot is too similar for it to be accidental. Cameron should just admit it and move on. If the fool had bought the movie rights properly, he probably could have got them quite cheaply since it was an old story. Now there may be a lawsuit....
"were you thinking of another story from Poul Anderson written in 1978 called "The Avatar"?"
I don't remember that one although I may still have read it. I read a lot of PoulA back in the 70s...

I remember cover (one of the papberbacks editions) for Anderson's "The Avatar" reminded me of "Star Wars"...I've not read it though ...I have only read a handful of Anderson's stories.

I am just glad to hear that I am not the only one to see a the similarities.
