More production stills from James Cameron’s highly-anticipated film, Avatar, have surfaced and they really do look pretty freakin’ cool. I will admit to not being totally on-board with the whole furor over this flick but the more I learn about it, the better it looks.
The 3-D film is set to hit theaters and IMAX on December 18, 2009. Up close and on their own, the CGI figures don’t look so realistic but that one shot of the female in a “real” environment (shown in a crouching position below) looks pretty believable.
In the film, “a band of humans are pitted in a battle against a distant planet’s indigenous population.” From the pics, I’m guessing the original Alien slayer, Sigourney Weaver, Michelle Rodriguez and Giovanni Ribisi are part of the group of humans who are trying to save humanity.
I’ll have to see a more extended trailer to really get a feel for whether I like this storyline but, in the meantime, check out these production stills and tell me what you think!

The characters, environments and effects look amazing. If you look at the full HD still of these images, the details show just how much the production was pushed for it and the effort they put in (and budget).
Excited to see how this will turn out and even if the story/genre might not be to some liking, I think there will be people who will watch it just for its graphics. =)
