from GeekChicDaily:
James Cameron really, really likes things that are long and blue. And by “things” we mean movies. (What did you think we meant?) Avatar, which extended Cameron’s cerulean obsession by starring giant Smurfin’ cat-people, already saw a theatrical re-release with 8 new minutes. The new DVD and Blu-ray sets feature the extended and theatrical cuts, plus a newer version that’s 8 minutes longer – just the thing to keep you up all night. Want’em all? Sign up to win your own Avatar Blu-ray or DVD 3-disc set from GCD!
Additional scenes include a new prologue on an overcrowded Earth, and a subplot about Neytiri’s sister (which prompts Jake to make a threesome joke not unlike the one you just made in your head). Not enough new stuff? There’s also 45 minutes of justifiably deleted scenes: Jake takes a psychedelic trip! Norm and Trudy get busy! Metaphors get overly explained! (In the spirit of extended cuts see GCD’s extended Avatar 3-disc set review.)
A documentary goes into every detail you want to know about the movie, while another follows Cameron’s journey to the Amazon to protest a rainforest dam (kind of a bummer, that one). The Blu-Ray set has even more features, from the original “scriptment” to a full-on English-Na’vi dictionary. All that’s missing is 3-D… but smack yourself in the face hard enough, and you might be able to approximate that too. Remember, we’re giving these away (DVDs, not smacks to the head) so click here for your chance to Sully your hands!
