No matter when it comes out this year it will likely be released again in 3D. Unless they can find a way to fit the 3D data onto the disc (maybe it's really simple) we'll see another release of this movie and likely every other 3D film already released or coming (Tron Legacy, Shrek 4, Toy Story 3, Alice in Wonderland, etc).
As for the film itself, I thought it was brilliant. I think the haters just love to hate on it but at $1.6 billion (and counting) in 30 days means the haters are an exclusive crowd indeed.
@incredibilistic Personally, I won't be buying the first non-3d bluray. I'll wait patiently for the proper 3d release. I'm also waiting for affordable polarized projectors, so even then, I may not be able to watch the movie for a couple years. Which is why I've gone 3 times to the theater to see the 3d (and may go one more) because it may well be two years before I can watch it again.
I WILL NOT watch Avatar in 2d. Ever. 3d=OAR for movies like Avatar and Coraline
3D blu-rays will be compatible with 2D blu ray players, they will have both versions of the move on the disk, the question is will the first release contain the 3D version. I think the earliest announced 3D blu ray is The Christmas Carol.
