到底加長片段有多長還很難說，以下轉貼本人3月12日在HD Club的發言內容。

阿凡達可能會在夏末或秋初時再度在美國重新上片，而這一次的版本可能會是加長版，但不確定是否是導演版。

Hollywood Reporter獨家報導，指稱詹姆斯柯麥隆正在和福斯公司討論重新上映(Re-release)阿凡達的相關事宜，這一次的重新上片將以3D戲院為主，重新上片日期預定在夏末，並且會是加長版，加入的是為了趕上去年12月18日(美國的正式上片日期)檔期，而剪掉的片段(James Cameron and Fox are in discussions about rereleasing "Avatar," primarily in 3D theaters, in late summer -- and, tantalizingly, with additional scenes that had been left on the cutting-room floor in the rush to ready the epic for its Dec. 18 release.)。

加長版到底會加入多長的片段？目前有兩個說法，第一個說法是柯麥隆先生曾經說過，有10到12分鐘的片段可以很快的完成後製，準備加入可能重新上片的所謂導演版，或是作為DVD特別收錄中的刪剪片段(Cameron had said that he had 10-12 minutes of extra scenes that he cut and could quickly put through postproduction and have ready to add to a director's cut for a theatrical reissue or as an extra on the DVD release.)。

第二個說法是，IMAX的執行長(CEO)Richard Gelfond在Gabelli & Co.的投資人於紐約召開的會議中轉述，柯麥隆說有差不多40分鐘的刪剪片段沒有放入戲院版，Gelfond並預測重新上片的時間可能在秋天(the guessing began early Thursday when Imax CEO Richard Gelfond said during a Gabelli & Co. investor conference in New York that Cameron had about 40 minutes of additional material that didn't make the theatrical cut. He also predicted a rerelease, which he said probably would occur in the fall.)。

還有第三個情況，那就是IMAX的類比戲院(analog Imax theaters，這裡我想是指相對於數位版，也就是像美麗華IMAX廳放映的膠卷版)有170分鐘的放映極限(The maximum length a movie can be released in analog Imax theaters is 170 minutes)，而柯麥隆也知道IMAX的這個問題，所以他可能會在160分鐘的戲院版之外，只多加入10分鐘的刪剪片段。
