Anyone seen the trailer yet? It seems apple couldn't cope with the amount of people going there to view it.

lol, how are Apple idiots?
why should they spend money on buying servers and bandwidth to deal with promoting James Cameron's latest film?
i'm not pleased that he's gone down the 3D route anyway - as a person who needs to wear spectacles, i find it difficult to watch these 3D films because i have to wear a pair of glasses over the top of my existing glasses. it causes image distortion and fucks up the 3D-ness, and is also uncomfortable.
patience and you'll see it. it'll be up on youtube, no doubt

from what i've read and i'm not a huge macaroon fan, is that its a very subtle 3d film and he say's he's using it on a subconscious level and he states he doesn't like the full on 3d experience so maybe it'll be a smarter approach to the technique, but i'll guess we'll have to wait see

first of all apple were making a big thing about showing the preview today at a specific time, the least they could have done is had it working for that time.
also the 3D glasses, i don't know if you have used the latest ones but I wear glasses and these ones fit right over without any problem and i didn't notice anything wrong with the 3D. This was at the Coraline screening.
on one hand Avatar looks fantastic... but its not quite photo realistic like I thought it would be.

"Now the technology is good enough that it can be used to enhance any film, just as another step forward in realism. This is just like how 3D rendering tech eventually replaced animatronics."
In my opinion, CGI that is good enough to blend seamlessly with live action film is exceedingly rare. 99.9% of the time, I find myself being pulled out of the action because of how glossy and fake it looks. Maybe if you're comparing animatronics from the early 80's to top-budget CG from today, the CGI will look better, but watch a film from the prime animatronics days just before CG took over (Jurassic Park, for example) and then watch any cgi film, and tell me which one looks more real. I will say that pre-rendered CGI backdrops usually look pretty good, but CGI characters have a way to go before they're actually an improvement over animatronics, IMO. A classic example is the comparison between the original star wars films and the prequels. Despite the aging special effects in the original films, they still look 10x more realistic than the new films, which are essentially just human actors standing in front of a green screen for 2 hours.

Agreed. Hardly the 'game changer' Cameron claimed it to be. Will reserve my judgement until seeing it though. It's obvious he has a great love of 3D and his belief in setting the depth to go further back from the screen rather than having stuff 'jumping out' at you (like looking through a window) could create some incredible work.
We'll see.

It is a piss poor trailer and my expectations have lowered quite a bit, however I do think the film itself, in 3D will be a much better but we'll see.

Another promising movie ruined by CGI. There might be a good story underneath all of the vertices and polygons, but I can't take a film which posits real people alongside fucking cartoons seriously anymore. Give me live action or give me death.

I think the whole 3D thing is major cheese. Every 3D movie I've seen uses the technique in really obvious/flamboyant ways that make me feel like a dog getting sprayed in the face by a waterhose
