I think since this is a film blog, I'm contractually obligated to post something about the trailer for Avatar, James Cameron's first non-underwater film in, what, 15 or 20 years or something? I've watched the mostly wordless, two-minute clip twice, and... what? It's fine. Totally fine, I guess. I just don't have a strong geek impulse. But it works, beat by beat: eyes opening, some cool/bad-ass facial scarring, gun-toting robots, a solid musical selection, grand-scale action stuff. I just don't know about the rastafarian, Manute Bol-esque Smurf elves. We'll see: the jury is still out with regards to movement and emoting. But please, stop with all the Delgo comparisons. There have been more of those made than people who actually saw Delgo, which grossed under $512,000 on 2,160 screens in its first weekend of release.
