Interesting little tidbit...

that I ran accross at HSX.com, http://movies.hsx.com/servlet/SecurityDetail?symbol=AVATR.

"Avatar aka Project 880"

""In the future, Jake, a paraplegic war veteran is brought to another planet, Pandora, which is inhabited by the Na'vi, a humanoid race with their own language and culture. Those from Earth find themselves at odds with each other and the local culture." The secretive Project 880 is a retooled version of James Cameron's long-dormant Avatar, which was going to be the first feature film using a cast of CGI actors. Technology has finally caught up for Cameron to realize his dream. Cameron first wants to create a multi-player online game, then shoot the theatrical film in that universe."
