The news blowing around the internet today is that someone scored a crew t-shirt from James Cameron's latest film Avatar. No, nothing to do with Aang and his gang of benders but rather a feature film with the story "...of a wounded ex-marine, thrust unwillingly into an effort to settle and exploit an exotic planet rich in bio-diversity, who eventually crosses over to lead the indigenous race in a battle for survival."I'm not going to go into an over excited ramble on what the image MIGHT tell us (yes, the Na'vi female-like character is holding a bow and arrow, appears to have a tail and ears and only 3 toes) but I'd just like to point out that this film is Cameron's first "proper" film since 1997's Titanic. He's been bumming around directing exploration documentaries (oh, and a short stint on Entourage) for a while so it's good to see one of the industry's best back at what he does best. Remember, this is the guy who brought us Aliens and The Terminator so sci fi is no stranger to him.
The film opens in the US on May 22nd, 2009.
