Wow. New details from Cameron himself about the SE coming in November.

Apparently you'll be able to choose between watching the theatrical cut, an extended version (only six minutes longer), or a WIP-style super extended version with 35 minutes of extra scenes. Apparently the WIP cut will feature mostly unfinished scenes due to it not representing Cameron's final vision of the story but it's being included so fans can see where the movie might have gone.

And IN ADDITION to those THREE versions of the movie, you'll have the option to watch the entire film with only reference footage of the actors and animals and NO motion-captured CGI. :horror Cameron says its a total trip but the essence of the movie is still there. An absolute MUST OWN set in the making!

Now, that does sound pretty cool. I'm still going to pick this up today, and I'm sure I'll grab it again in November.
 
On a serious not though. I am rather excited to check this out on blueray. I bet it looks fantastic. The 3D was neat but to me it still wasn't as colorful as it could have been. I bet it looks sharp in 1080P! :rock
 
Has anyone seen it in 2d? Is it even worth seeing?

Absolutely! As Badmoon said the 2D version is actually more vibrant and colorful. I saw it both ways in the theater and while the 3D effects are spectacular the dark glasses did indeed mute the colors. It should look fantastic on 2D Blu-ray. And I'll know first hand in just a couple of hours. :)
