The humans come back and bomb the planets surface from orbit until everything is dead and barren, then they start mining. The movie will be15 minutes long.

It will be 25 minutes long: the first 5 will be an accountant analyzing the cost-benefit of bombing for unobtanium, and the second 5 minutes will be a meeting to discuss the cost-benefit analysis of bombing for unobtanium .



These scenes are already included in the 15 minutes. You must be talking about the special extended edition where we see them packing for the trip.





“It appeared that there had even been demonstrations to thank Big Brother for raising the chocolate ration to twenty grams a week. And only yesterday, he reflected, it had been announced that the ration was to be reduced to twenty grams a week. Was it possible that they could swallow that, after only twenty-four hours? Yes, they swallowed it.”

- George Orwell, ‘1984’

OK I have a question to ask the STAR WARS fans. I've never watched one but I know ill love them as I live sci Fi. Im going to watch them but I want to know what's the best order to watch them? I know they came out with episodes 4-5-6 first then 1-2-3. Which way would be best to watch them?

Just watch them in order. Since you have no nostalgic attachment to the OG Trilogy you'll probably enjoy the prequels a lot more than fans who grew up watching the originals first. I grew up watching them [nearly] in order so I have nostalgia for all of them equally XD

I the theatrical release, the first part is whittled down to Giovanni Ribisi saying, "Bombing is the new 'in the black,'" and the second part is, "Gentlemen, were going back."

Closest thing to Final Fantasy? visually sure (still a boring world), but there's nothing memorable about the plot or characters, unlike FF. How many people actually remembers the name of the main characters in Avatar? I bet not too many.

What's next, 8 is the best in the series? lol

OT: Thanks for keeping this updated, for some reason I can't access mojo on my phone. It's looking like a given that FA will top Titanic and even if it can't reach Avatar it will get somewhat close
