After committing 2,000 words to the impact and legacy of “Avatar,” I’m sure everyone is wondering if I already have my copy.
The answer is no, and I don’t plan to buy it. At least not this edition. I’m not the kind of person who will buy a DVD and then wait a while to buy a more loaded version.
James Cameron has said that the version being released today is literally just the movie. Deleted scenes and more extras are coming later, along with 3D. I’m expecting something to trump the three hour making-of documentary on the Criterion Collection DVD of “The Curious Case of Benjamin Button.”
By the way, he also mentioned in the article that I linked above that he is planning a re-release sometime later this year. I might actually go back and see it again; it will be worth the money where so many movies I see this summer won’t.
