How fast you think the sperm donor nixes that idea? Hope the sperm donor has nothing to say about the possibility of making a movie. Might be the best thing for her career. I was just talking about this with my sister, she says that they sould wait some years and have August and Honor play Logan and Max.

That's a great idea Michele. The age difference is about right and they are both cutie patooties.
Hmmmm, how old will Jim Cameron be in 17 years. Oh well, he could sit in his wheelchair and use a laser weapon to make the actors emote his version of DA.
Sorry, emote is the word of the day on my calendar. ;D

Inside James Cameron's Highly Anticipated Film 'Avatar' Saturday, July 25, 2009 By George Christy, Beverly Hills Courier Sigourney Weaver is one of the stars of James Cameron's new film "Avatar." "Like nothing you’ve ever seen ... 'Avatar’s' a fantastic adventure, destined to change the way movies are made," reports Jeffrey Godsick, executive vice president of Fox. "We screened 24 minutes of selected scenes this month in Amsterdam for 2,000 exhibitors, and for 200 more at Grauman’s Chinese Theatre. All were blown away. We’ll screen scenes this weekend at Comic-Con in San Diego, and expect the same overwhelming reaction." Written and directed by James Cameron with a budget of $200 million-plus, four years in the making and filmed locally on a soundstage in Playa Vista, "Avatar" remains the year’s most anticipated sci-fi action thriller. It will open on December 19th in 3-D and 2-D. Jim claims he waited these ten years between "Titanic" and "Avatar" for the 3-D technological effects to catch up with his vision. "Avatar" begins with a paraplegic Marine veteran finding himself on the planet Pandora that circles the Moon, an exotic land of humanoids with their own language and culture, where the Marine’s given a second chance at life. Pandora has its own culture, beautiful and fierce animals, moving mountains, sky-high foliage, an eerie and beguiling world of its own. Again, Jim’s imagination is without bounds. “As we know from 'Titanic,' 'Aliens' and 'Terminator,' Jim’s an epic storyteller, with character-driven action loaded with emotion,” adds Jeffrey. Word is that the war in "Avatar" between humans and humanoids is “the mother of all battles, with futuristic weaponry and never-before-seen special effects.” Then, there’s the mounting suspense as to whether Jake will cross over “to the other side.” Sam Worthington stars as Jake Sully, and after seeing hundreds of actors, known and unknown, Jim Cameron admits, “Sam’s audition tape got to me. He’s in the film from start to finish, and I knew he could carry the story. He’s one tough guy.” Thirty-something Sam’s a onetime Australian bricklayer, who studied theatre at Australia’s National Institute of Dramatic Art, and was a finalist to star as James Bond in Casino Royale before Daniel Craig. He co-starred in this year’s "Terminator Salvation." Sigourney Weaver plays Sam’s mentor, and Zoe Saldana is a Na'vi, who inhabits the planet Pandora. In the cast are Michelle Rodriguez, CCH Pounder, Giovanni Ribisi. “Phenomenal” commented previewers about the cinematography by Mauro Fiore ("The Kingdom"). Production designers are Rick Carter and Robert Stromberg, and how many films out there boast 14 art directors? Here's the link, www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,534764,00.html

Thought this movie sounded like it could be sort of DA like and it's being directed by Dj Caruso who directed MEOWwww.comingsoon.net/news/movienews.php?id=62516D.J. Caruso to Direct I Am Number Four Source:Heat Vision January 20, 2010 Heat Vision is reporting that D.J. Caruso (Eagle Eye, Disturbia) has signed on to direct the adaptation of James Frey and Jobie Hughes' sci-fi book I Am Number Four. The book is about a group of nine earthbound alien teens who escaped their planet just before it was destroyed by a hostile species. While the high school-aged kids assimilate, the title character discovers that he is being hunted by the enemy that blew up his planet. HarperCollins Children's Books is publishing the book, which would be the first in a series of six, this fall. Al Gough and Miles Millar wrote the screenplay. Michael Bay will produce algon with Benderspink for DreamWorks Pictures.

The comparison they made on the AICN article regarding this was to the, CW or whatever network it was, show Roswell. Not sure where you see the DA connection aside from the fact that its non-human kids being chased.
As soon as I saw that it was DJ Caruso I couldn't help but wonder where hes going to cast Shia Lebouf.

Not sure where you see the DA connection aside from the fact that its non-human kids being chased. I was thinking of the group of kids being like the X-5s. I'd forgotten about Roswell and now that I am reminded of it am much less interested in this movie.

From Smithsonian Magazine's August 2010 Issue. 40th Anniversary James Cameron on the Future of Cinema The director of Avatar and Terminator talks about future sequels, 3-D television and Hollywood in 2050 By Lorenza Muñoz Smithsonian Magazine, August 2010 Many believe that Avatar, the largely computer-generated, 3-D film by James Cameron—and the top-.movie in history, earning nearly $3 billion worldwide—has changed the moviegoing experience. Like Avatar, Cameron’s 1984 thriller Terminator, about an indestructible human-machine cyborg, and 1997’s Titanic, with its hyper-realistic feel for the “unsinkable” ship’s disastrous end, are morality tales about technology’s risks—created with the most advanced technology. The director spoke with reporter Lorenza Muñoz. How has technology evolved since your first foray into film? Terminator was my first real film, and you can directly contrast 1984 to 2010. No single technique we used then was used today. We shot Terminator on film, and we don’t shoot on film today. All of the visual effects are digital now. Back then we used glass paintings, foreground miniatures and stop-motion animation. We thought we were being tremendously innovative—and we were. The technology has changed but the basics of the job haven’t. It is still about storytelling, about juxtaposing images, about creating a feeling with images and music. Only the technical details have changed. How do you see technology changing for the Avatar sequel? We always planned to make this as a series of two or three movies. The appeal of going into the second film is that we can continue with the system we created. Now we will just speed it up, refine and make it more intuitive for the artists working on the film. The next movies will be more about details but not fundamentally different. In 40 years, will people see movies in theaters, or will everyone be watching from home on computers with 3-D capacity? I think there will be movie theaters in 1,000 years. People want the group experience, the sense of going out and participating in a film together. People have been predicting the demise of movie theaters since I started in the business. Why doesn’t the Avatar DVD have 3-D? We have to wait until the technology is available in every home. I think it will be standard in 4 years, not 40. We will have a glasses-free technology in five years at home and three years for laptops. The limiting factor is going to be content. You can’t rely on a few films a year for this. It is going to have to be 3-D broadcast sports, scripted television, non-scripted television and reality television. Will Hollywood still be the filmmaking capital of the world in 40 years? It will always be a filmmaking center. Filmmakers from China and Japan and Germany come to Hollywood to have meetings with studio executives and to get money for their movies. It is a central switching station for global entertainment. Hollywood is also the place for filmmakers who want to make movies for a global market. China and Russia make films for their own markets, but I don’t see the likelihood of those places replacing Hollywood. India has a huge film industry that supplies hundreds of films a year, but it is very much about that market. Will you be making movies in 40 years? If I’m alive. I will be 96, so I will be making films very, very slowly. Here's the link, www.smithsonianmag.com/specialsections/40th-anniversary/James-Cameron-on-the-Future-of-Cinema.html

The dude that played Bruno showed up in last nights Human Target, pretty much the same role as he had in DA, except this time he traded the Canadian accent for a really lousy Russian one.

Okay, the show is really, really awful for several reasons, but on tonight's episode of "Fairly Legal," Hannah Whats-her-name and Sam Carr played husband & wife.
