Cameron's Avatar Trailer Posted

graviplana was one of several people to submit that Avatar, James Cameron's 3D Sci-Fi epic has released a trailer to whet your appetite. There's a lot of very cool visual elements in there but no indication of any actual story. Here's hoping there is one.

    The correct word is "whet."

    Maybe it's a deliberately bad trailer, designed to dampen people's appetites.

    They are all actually dead the whole time, being killed by the plants that live in the forest around the village.

    Oh... and the "mentor-character" is actually the main bad-guy, who is stumped by closed doors and is allergic to water.

    Here's the thing I hate about sci-fi plots. Humans have the ability to fly half way across the galaxy, can engineer biological hybrids, can link those hybrids to a humans mind, but the simple act of reconnecting a spinal cord back together in order to cure paralysis is still beyond their reach?

    I guess Health Care Reform didn't work in this sci-fi.
