Fox is doing a fantastic job building interest in James Cameron’s Avatar if my rapidly increasing curiosity is any indication. My eyes are glued to the television with each new TV spot in anticipation of peeking some new footage.
Then something like this new featurette comes along that should seal the deal for anyone on the fence about seeing Avatar theatrically. Narrated by Sigourney Weaver in a deliberate nod to her work with BBC’s Planet Earth series drawing parallels between our world and the film’s, the nearly four-minute long look at Pandora’s landscape, inhabitants and ecology blows the door open on how majestic the alien world James Cameron has concocted is. And we’re not even seeing it in 3D yet.
The featurette is viewable at Canal Plus (via AICN), a French website. But don’t worry; the narration is in English. Go see it now.
