There's, uh, probably a lot of things you didn't know about lindens. Another, another interesting, uh, lindenism, uh, there are only three jobs available to a linden. The first is making shoes at night while, you know, while the old cobbler sleeps.You can bake cookies in a tree. But the third job, some call it, uh, "the show" or "the big dance," it's the profession that every linden aspires to.

A bit WoW meets Halo. I guess the militaristic bit is unavoidable in this day and age. Nice graphics.

Looks like this could be a great movie. I wish they'd left the Marines out of it though. What I was seeing I'd probably enjoy more without the mechs. Of course that's just one man's opinion though.

I don't see this helping SL at all. There is no tie-in to Second Life. It will however help them to sell lots of Mattel (tm) toys and the game by UBISOFT (tm) based on the movie.
I can't get the trailer to play for some reason, so I went to the website for the movie. I'm always very suspicious about movies that harp heavily on the director, and the technology, but refuse to show any screenshots or clips, and won't give any details about the story. It usually indicates they are hiding a bad movie. But time will tell. _____________________

I don't see the connection to SL or virtual worlds either. It looked like a bunch of people riding around on leftover props from Terminator 3 shooting at each other in a jungle.

*Yawns* We have a channel on cable where you can watch shooter games being played..why anybody would want to is beyond me. That reminded me of the same thing.

This trailer is like you see in movie theatres. http://www.apple.com/trailers/fox/avatar/ yes, when I get home from work i'll try the trailer again. Won't play here at work, likely because our internet royally sucks here. (I'm spoiled by Broadband )_____________________

Looks rather meh to me. Of course, with stupid quickslime hitching and lagging all over the place, it's kinda hard to tell.
When will people get that stupid proprietary formats just aren't the way to go for wide distribution? |

I don't know about this one. To me it was confusing; couldn't figure out if I was suppose to be watching a sci-fi, action/war or a love story as it's premise. Although I do agree, beautiful special effects.

Ok, watched the trailer now. Nice special effects. I still feel not enough is being told about the story, which usually indicates a flimsy script.
And I finally see the connection to SL, Naked Cat Girls. _____________________
