For better or worse, it looks like that character will influence the path that his career takes from here on in. After...
The new trailer for James Cameron’s Avatar has been out in theatres for a week or so now, but it has finally debuted online today in HD over at Yahoo!. This comes hot on the heels of recent accusations against James Cameron that he may have stolen some of the ideas for Avatar from a 1957 short story by Poul Anderson entitled Call Me Joe.
