So this movie is supposed to change the way movies are made.
Cameron has been saying for years that he had to invent new technology to bring this story to the screen, blah, blah, blah.

I'm sure it will be an event, but this is a rather unimpressive design (IMO). It looks like Geiger's "Species" creatures.

Thoughts?

A red 'x' does seem somewhat derivative.

Well, I didn't see SPECIES, so I have no idea how close the design is - but I am curious about the 'redefinition of how films are made'. Redefined in what way? Has he offered no other comments?

It shows for me, but I don't know what to say. She kinda looks like a humanized ALIEN creature, if you get my drift.

I'm not much of a sci-fi fan, but it doesn't look too impressive.

I don't really know what to think of it. It just looks... weird.

Yea, he's talked about it a lot Q.
He developed the new 3-D that is all the rage now for this movie.
Also it's being filmed in some kind of new digital fashion that is supposed to be 100% photo-realistic.
