What's It About?
You should know, but paralyzed ex-Marine Jake Sully travels to the alien planet Pandora in an Avatar body on a mission, and unexpectedly falls in love with the exotic, blue princess Neytiri he meets.

Why See It?
-If you saw it via DVD instead of in theatres.
-If you saw it in 2D via theatres instead of 3D.
-The re-release includes 9 additional minutes of new footage plus new characters: the Sturmbeest.

Why Skip It?
You weren't interested in the world of Pandora in 2009.
