‘Avatar: Special Edition’ Coming to Theaters

Eight minutes added to epic, re-releasing August 27 in limited engagement

Whether you loved it, hated it, or thought it the most satanic film of all time, James Cameron’s epic film Avatar, the highest grossing movie of all time, is comin’ back at ya.

With more than eight minutes of never-before-seen footage, the expanded version – brilliantly titled Avatar: Special Edition – will release to a limited number of 3D theaters on August 27. A press release from 20th Century Fox notes that the number of digital 3D screens has “exploded” since the film originally released last December, and this re-release will give more fans an opportunity to see it in that extra dimension.

Here’s a 15-second video promo for the re-release:
