One of this year's most anticipated films, AVATAR is the brainchild of one of today's most visionary filmmakers, James Cameron. AVATAR takes place on a distant world where a reluctant hero embarks on a journey of redemption and discovery as he leads a heroic battle to save a civilization. Consistent with Mr. Cameron's previous movies, AVATAR will showcase the most impressive graphics ever rendered on film, combining live action and real environments with CG-animated 3D characters to transform the cinema screen into a strange new world. The film is expected to set new standards in fantasy filmmaking.
