Avatar Trailer

[Angrist]

A few weeks ago a friend and I went to the theaters. We saw the trailer for Avatar.

Now my friend later says to me: 'That was weird, it started with live action, and then it turned into computer-animation.'

Which made me realize how bad the CGI graphics are.
Another realization came when I saw Star Wars: Episode 1. The CGI-created creatures look so real that you don't notice it's CGI. Even in Jurassic Park you didn't notice it. Those movies are 10 and 16 years old.

HOW IN THE WORLD can Avatar look worse than those??? Somebody please explain.

(I have my own explanation: they purposely made the trailer look bad. Now when the movie launches, it will look much better. People will be so excited about how good it looks... forgetting that it looks the same as technology from 10 years ago.)
