the G-man the G-man Lawyers Guns & Money Registered: Fri May 16 2003 Posts: 35833 Loc: the right	Boom in 'Avatar' Names for Kids MOVIE fans are rushing to name their babies after characters in sci-fi smash Avatar. Choices include Neytiri - after the film's Na'vi warrior-princess - and giant flying creature Toruk. Another favourite is Pandora, name of the blockbuster flick's fictional planet. Pandora is tipped as top choice among US fans, with UK parents set to follow. "There's gonna come a time when she's gonna have to go"

It looks like James Cameron has developed perfect hypnotherapy through subliminal "3-D" technology. We have to shut this film down, before it's too late for the human race. DAMN YOU JAMES CAMERON!!!

the G-man the G-man Lawyers Guns & Money Registered: Fri May 16 2003 Posts: 35833 Loc: the right	Did Avatar Completely Rip Off An Obscure British Comic Called Firekind? It's a classic tale - boy goes to a lush planet with toxic atmosphere, floating rocks and dragons, going native with the blue skinned natives, resisting marauding colonialists and rallying the nature god of the planet to go forth and destroy. Unfortunately, it was the plot to Firekind, a comic book series published in British sci-fi anthology 2000ad (home to Judge Dredd) in 1993. Oops! If only ceators John Smith and Paul Marshall had told their tale in glorious stereoscopic 3D (and toned down the intensely hallucinogenic and psychosexual elements of Firekind), they could have had a sure-fire hit! At one point Firekind's dreamy lead notes "the whole planet's wired into one massive circuitboard", a fair description of Avatar's neural net hoo-ha. Cameron previously settled out of court Harlan Ellison over elements of Terminator said to be "inspired" by Ellison's work, and is buddies with Judge Dredd screenwriter William Wisher Jr, so it's not even a tiny stretch to suggest he'd be familiar with 2000ad. 2000ad is owned by Rebellion Developments, currently working on a reboot for the Dredd movie franchise and now very much unable to exploit Firekind on the big screen. Firekind dropped in 1993, with James Cameron completeting his early "scriptment" for Avatar in just two weeks a year later. Check out a side-by-side comparison of the two here.
