Avatar premiere photos are an incredible 2009 throwback

It’s been 13 years since James Cameron’s original Avatar And, most importantly, what has changed? [checks notes]Ok, so maybe it’s a Few things, but I should be specific about the important inflection points I’m thinking about here: Has anything changed about how celebrities roll into the premieres of blockbuster movies?

Polygon loves a good reason to travel in the past through the power and beauty of press line photography. We can imagine walking on the red carpets for our favourite movies of the 2000s, realizing that it was a very different time. Lord of the Rings’ cast has really grown since the original premiere. Fellowship of the Ring. It was the premiere Pirates of the CaribbeanWas… for a moment. On the occasion The Way of Water: AvatarIt was time to get back… we needed to return to Pandora.

But here’s the twist: The lineup at the 2009 Avatar premiere doesn’t look that different from a 2022 gala. We are in pretty good shape after thirteen years of monoculture. There have been a few subtle differences. Some celebrities have moved on from the spotlight. Other stars are still here. While styles may have evolved, no one is the same. AvatarKeira Knightley was the star of premiere

This is the main takeaway. Danny DeVito had a great time at the Avatar premiere.

Rhea Perlman was DeVito’s wife and Lucy DeVito were there to witness a breakthrough. An odd commonality between the premieres for many now-classic movies are that most of the people don’t seem to know what they’re in for. It is rare for big stars to appear outside of the main cast. The lower-tier celebs often seem like they’re just shopping at the local supermarket.

It was Avatar! A decade-plus-in-the-making technological marvel that would go on to be the highest-grossing movie of all time! Danny DeVito is the only one who gives a damn!!

These guys get it. They got it. Sigourney, thriving in her comeback to major sci-fi films. Cameron looks like he has just completed 18 victorie laps. Sam Worthington is really pleased to be there. Michelle Rodriguez, hell yes. Only one who can match Danny DeVito’s on the Avatar carpet. Beaming. You are killing it. She ruined the company pink by putting everyone in neutrals. Why wasn’t she in The Way of Water: Avatar? I blame Vin Diesel. Call Capt. Trudy Chacón back to Pandora.

Zoe Saldaña also appears to have had a blast at the Avatar premiere, likely because half the people watching the movie wouldn’t know it was her under all that CG Neytiri makeup. Some red carpet motion capture.

Brendan Fraser had just reached the end of his career in action movies. Avatar Although he premiered his work in 2009, he is easily the most well-known person to have paid tribute to Cameron. His necklace is definitely something you’d see on Pandora. His enthusiasm is not as high as DeVito’s, but he has a great spirit. Amazingly, he’s now in the Oscar conversation for his work on The WhaleAs much as Water is the WayIn theaters Fraser endured.

Masi Oka is available starting at when HeroesThe blue carpet was graced by her presence. That wasn’t even a Fox show. According to our knowledge, the man did not have a professional obligation. This man wanted to just see. Avatar! If he had brought his own snacks, he’d rival DeVito.

And here’s astronaut Buzz Aldrin with then-wife Lois Driggs Cannon. Can you imagine Buzz Aldrin’s thoughts? Avatar.

Danny DeVito: How difficult was it? Avatar? There are many steps-and-repeat instances of this actor in the archives LivingBut he then goes back to the red carpet and takes pictures of the cast. It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia. “The Gang Watches Avatar” (likely because Fox invited anyone on a popular FX show, but hey, they made the time). Some fun trivia: Always SunnyIt’s been so popular that season 5 was just a few months ago. Avatar hit theaters, and it’s still on today. James Cameron, take that!

Maybe Jason Alexander loves movie premieres. He might have a lot to spare because of the internet. Seinfeld residuals. The man, however, was there ShrekPremiere and The Avatar premiere a near-decade apart rocking the same casual wear and it’s standing out to me. Yet, Danny DeVito looks just as happy to be there.

Fox Synergy is the power: Invite three young actors to attend your major movie premiere to soft-promote their movie. Logan Lerman, Brandon T. Jackson, and Alexandra Daddario look like they could not give less of a shit to see Jake Sully embark on the Iknimaya challenge in the Hallelujah Mountains later on that evening but, if they’re gonna sell Percy Jackson & The Olympians: The Lightning ThiefFaces must be made!

Summer Mann, Michael Mann’s wife, arrived and they are actually thrilled. It wasn’t DeVito hype at all, but just happy to get out and watch a fine film from a master.

Cuba Gooding Jr., an actor that was consistently on the premiere circuit between 2000 and 2010, walked in the Avatar Blue-carpet with his boys. Fun Fact: Mason Gooding was a very talented actor/nepo infant and is now full-time. The Scream 2022!

Tom Arnold experiences real life 3D as he attends the Avatar premiere. DeVito competitor but not as grounded.

Danny DeVito is the best at the Avatar premiere. The highs continued into the evening…

What was the love of Danny DeVito for The? Avatar premiere? Why is he returning to the premiere this month? The Way of Water: Avatar. The righteous man would defend the tulkuns.
