It's been over a decade since James Cameron thrilled the world with his epic film Titanic. After producing several documentary films, the director of The Terminator and Aliens returns to science fiction with Avatar, a photorealistic CGI film in 3-D.
Except for the rumors of ground-breaking technological advancements in filmmaking, a few images and a short synopsis about a wounded ex-marine and a struggle to exploit an alien world, there is little known about Avatar. However, if director Steven Soderbergh (Solaris) is to be believed, Cameron's fans haven't waited in vain. In a recent interview, Soderbergh said:
I've seen some stuff and holy $#@%. It's the craziest $#@% ever.
