OBS PRESENTS: MOVIE RELEASES FOR DECEMBER 18TH

Woot Avatar is finally here. That’s all that really needs to be said this week, but the other movie looks pretty interesting too… too bad it’s not a nationwide release (jerks).

Avatar (Nationwide)

Action, Adventure, Sci-Fi (PG-13)

(From Comingsoon.net) The story’s hero is Jake Sully, a former Marine confined to a wheelchair. Bitter and disillusioned, he’s still a warrior at heart. All Jake ever wanted was something worth fighting for, and he finds it in the place he least expected: on a distant world. Jake has been recruited to join an expedition to the moon Pandora, which corporate interests are strip-mining for a mineral worth $20 million per kilogram on Earth. To facilitate their work, the humans use a link system that projects a person’s consciousness into a hybrid of humans and Pandora’s indigenous humanoids, the Na’vi. This human-Na’vi hybrid – a fully living, breathing body that resembles the Na’vi but possesses the individual human’s thoughts, feelings and personality – is known as an “avatar.”

The New Daughter (Limited)

NO POSTER AVAILABLE
Thriller (NA)

(From Comingsoon.net) Kevin Costner plays John James, a single father who moves to a farm with his two kids after a painful divorce. Soon, his daughter (Ivana Baquero of “Pan’s Labyrinth”) starts behaving ominously, and Dad begins to suspect that the burial mound in a nearby field might have something to do with it.

I’m really sad that there is so little information on The New Daughter and that it’s a limited release, but Avatar really makes up for that. I am definitely going to see Avatar tomorrow.

Are you going to see Avatar and what have you heard about it?
