Synopsis:
A paraplegic ex-marine war veteran is unwillingly sent to establish a human settlement on the distant planet of Pandora, only to find himself battling humankind alongside the planet’s indigenous Na’vi race in this ambitious digital 3-D sci-fi epic from Academy Award-winning Titanic director James Cameron. The film, which marks Cameron’s first dramatic feature since 1997’s Titanic, will be shot on the proprietary FUSION digital 3-D cameras developed by Cameron in collaboration with Vince Pace, and will offer a groundbreaking mix of live-action dramatic performances and computer-generated effects. Australian actor Sam Worthington stars as the reluctant human settler, Jake Sully, with actress Zoe Saldana signing on to portray the local woman who enters into a romantic affair with the hero. The revolutionary motion-capture system created for the film allows the facial expressions of actors to be captured as a virtual camera system enables them to see what their computer-generated counterparts will be seeing in the film, and Peter Jackson’s Oscar-winning Weta Digital visual-effects house has been hired to supervise Avatar’s complex visual effects. Joel Moore, Sigourney Weaver, Stephen Lang, and Michelle Rodriguez round out the cast. ~ Jason Buchanan, All Movie Guide

I'll give you three reasons why I want to see this movie:
3D
James Cameron
Sigourney Weaver
This is going to be a great movie!
It's Jimmy Cameron. How could I not want to see this? Also, I'd like to see Sam Worthington in action again.
Three reasons 1) cameron's writing
is on a par with the late great
Philip K. Dick , 2)Zoe Saldana
and 3) I've forgiven Cameron for
Rambo First Blood Part 2.
I've got a flight to Pandora the week after Christmas and I really wanted to be prepared for the trip.
i can't wait to see the follow up to titanic!
I would kill my brother to see this movie...not really. But I am very excited and can't wait mainly because I want to see if Sam Worthington is gonna be this star that Hollywood wants him to be.
I want to see this movie, because I feel it will be more of an event than a movie. This should be the movie event of the year. James Cameron let to do whatever he wants? How could this be wrong?
James Cameren doing what he does best. Can't wait to see it.
James Cameron was written, directed, and produced some good movies in the past years and this one looks be a winner too.
This movie looks so cool and I really want to see it. I love the technology and I'm looking forward to seeing if it is as good as everyone says its going to be.
