Avengers would be extremely lucky if it managed to beat Titanic's record. I think it's almost impossible for it to beat Avatar, considering all the movies that are about to be released this summer.

		+	Jake Sully was on his first mission out on Pandora in his Avatar body and [[Grace Augustine]] was in radio contact with him. While marking any [[Unobtanium\|unobtanium]] deposits, Jake noticed [[Neytiri]] running, and asked Grace what he should do. Grace encouraged him to stay in contact with the Na'vi. Jake followed Neytiri, and when he finally caught up with her, he fell unconscious. Jake awoke in his dream-hunt and a spirit came to him speaking in Na'vi, Jake didn't understand and followed the spirit. The spirit then showed him Pandora burning and asked Jake, who now understood the spirit, to help the Na'vi and stop the humans who are burning the forest. Jake did as he was asked and the dream hunt ended. Naytiri noticed a totem on Jake's hand that had appeared there and knew where she should be and ran off again. Jake followed her with his [[Mountain Banshee\|banshee]], but some humans tried to stop him and he crashed. Grace then contacted Jake and said that the humans have placed some explosives in the area to destroy Na'vi villages who opposed them. Since Jake was in the area, he decided to disarm the explosives on his way to the mining complex. At the unobtanium mine Jake again contacted Grace to find out where the Na'vi prisoners were held. Grace did so and found out that Neytiri was also captured. Jake hurried to Neytiri and [[Tse'huk]], who was the leader of the [[Ni'awve Clan\|Ni'awve clan]] and managed to save them. Tse'huk then asked Jake to go to the [[Tree of Souls]] of the Ni'awve, because humans were on route there to destroy it. Jake again took off with his banshee and flew to the [[Hallelujah Mountains]]. He encountered heavy resistance on the way and managed to down a [[Dragon Assault Ship]]. He landed his injured banshee and climbed the remaining way up to the Tree of Souls. Jake fought several humans who tried to stop him, and then he awoke the Sacred Soul of Pandora. Grace then contacted Jake that she had to move his human body, since [[Miles Quaritch\|Quaritch]] wanted to shoot him. She begged him to disconnect, but Jake refused and broke contact with her saying to keep his human body safe.

I know that this isn't related to Avatar at all I just wanted to post this in case some you haven't noticed. I was just on imdB (Internet Movie Database) and Marvel's new film 'The Avengers' has been out just 2 weeks arund the world and it is on its on its way to beating both JC's Avatar and Titanic. For Titanic, it took a year for it to reach 1.7 Billion Dollars while Avatar took just 7 weeks to beat it by $1 Billion. Which raises the question: will it take just 3 weeks for the Avengers to beat two of our favourite films? I think it will. I know that its been 3 years since Avatar's release but I was really hoping that the record would remain Avatar's until the release of Avatar 2 in 2015/16. What do you guys think?

Another thought just came across my mind, I hope Avatar2 isn't a cliffhanger type of thing. Since 2 and 3 are supposed to be shot back to back it makes me wonder a bit( since the movies are only supposed to be a year apart it wouldn't be too bad, but I would still rather have A2 have an "ending".

		+	Throughout most of their relationship, Tsu'tey treated Jake with disdain, sneering at him when he made mistakes and appeared to enjoy mocking and embarrassing him. He was jealous of Jake's relationship with Neytiri and when he discovered that they had mated, he was outraged and tried to kill Jake. Tsu'tey also appeared smug when Jake admitted to the clan that he had been sent by the RDA to spy on them, possibly because he had suspected that Jake was a traitor as soon as he laid eyes on him.
		+
		+	However, when Jake returned to the clan after becoming the sixth Toruk Makto and swore his loyalty to them, an amazed Tsu'tey forgave him for everything and came to respect him. He accepted Jake back into the clan and fought alongside him in the battle for the Tree of Souls. As Tsu'tey lay dying, he handed the title of Olo'eyktan on to Jake. He told him that he was proud to fight with him and thought of him as a brother. As his last will, Tsu'tey demanded Jake to end his life, honoring him by being his last shadow.
		+
		+	===Neytiri===
		+	Tsu'tey was betrothed to Neytiri during his childhood and the two of them grew up and learned together. Despite their differences, they seemed to have much respect for each other. However, Neytiri fell in love with Jake Sully and chose him as her mate instead. Tsu'tey may have genuinely loved Neytiri as he appeared hurt and shocked when he found out that she had mated with Jake. Though she didn't love him as she loved Jake, Neytiri did care for Tsu'tey and was deeply saddened when he died.
		+
		+	===Eytukan===
		+	Eytukan greatly respected Tsu'tey for his abilities as a warrior and chose him to one day carry on in his place as the clan leader. Eytukan ordered Tsu'tey to lead a war party into an assault on the RDA after the latter had destroyed the Trees of Voices, one of the Omaticaya clan's most sacred places. Tsu'tey supported Eytukan in preparing the clan's warriors for the defense of Hometree against the RDA. When Eytukan was killed in the assault, Tsu'tey succeeded him as Olo'eyktan.

		+
		+	To the cultures of [[Earth]], Pandora is mysterious, primal and terrifying. Even from orbit, the scope of florae present on the surface indicates a planet brimming with life. One of the creatures on Pandora is the [[direhorse]], a gray-skinned, hexapodal horse-like animal with [[Bioluminescence\|bioluminescent]] qualities that the [[Na'vi]] ride when hunting. The Na'vi also ride the [[Mountain Banshee\|mountain banshee]] to hunt from the air, but the hunter can become prey in the presence of the [[Great Leonopteryx\|great leonopteryx]]. In the canopy below, other deadly yet exotic animals roam: vicious packs of [[Viperwolf\|viperwolves]], thick skinned [[Hammerhead Titanothere\|hammerhead titanothere]]s and the most fearsome creature of all, the [[thanator]].
		+	Other than the color, the trees resemble those of Earth. They have the familiar trunks, branches and leaves, though due to the difference in planetary gravity, many of the shapes appear strange to humans and the proportions are greater because of the lower gravity. The trees and plant life of Pandora have formed electrochemical connections between their roots and effectively act as neurons, creating a planet-wide "brain" that has achieved sentience, which is known to the Na'vi as [[Eywa]].
		+
		+	Pandora, despite being almost as large as Earth, is only a moon of the gas giant Polyphemus, which has thirteen other moons. However, due to the smaller size, its gravity is 20% less than Earth's. Due to Pandora's lower gravity, most creatures on Pandora are hexapods (six-legged), although the Na'vi resemble humans and have only two legs. Creatures roam the air and forest canopy below, similar to Earth's animals, but on a scale several times larger. Pandora's wildlife also have bioluminescent qualities. Depending on the position of the various moons, Pandora can have two or even three moons in its sky at once. Pandora and the other moons cast large black shadows on Polyphemus.
		+
		+	Pandora looks like a lush paradise by Earth standards during the day, but at night, virtually all life on the planet exhibits bioluminescent qualities in various shades of blue, purple and green. This possibly explains the Na'vi's blue skin color, which most likely provides a better camouflage at night on Pandora.
		+
		+	==Atmosphere==
		+	Pandora's atmosphere is a mixture of nitrogen, oxygen, carbon dioxide (>18%), xenon (>5.5%), methane, and hydrogen sulfide (>1%) and is about 20% denser than the atmosphere on Earth primarily due to the high percentage of Xenon; a heavy, colorless, odorless, and generally unreactive noble gas. The high concentration of carbon dioxide in the Pandoran atmosphere makes it extremely poisonous to humans, rendering them unconscious in about 20 seconds and causing death in about 4 minutes. The hydrogen sulfide present is also quite poisonous; concentrations over 1000 ppm (0.1 %) can cause immediate collapse with subsequent loss of breathing, even after inhalation of a single breath.
		+
		+	The increased air resistance within this denser atmosphere has a number of effects:
		+	*Lower terminal velocity. Combined with Pandora's twenty-percent lower gravity, a freely falling object's maximum speed is significantly less than on earth. A Na'vi who happens to fall from a flying mountain banshee has a good chance of surviving uninjured if they are over a forested area. Even over water, falling spread-eagled can reduce their speed sufficiently to allow an impact with the surface that will not knock them unconscious.
		+
		+	* The increased mass of the denser air means that more force is required to accelerate it as it is moved out of the path of a moving object. Humans on Pandora experience this when they try to run – it feels like there is a wind blowing against them, even though the air is still. They are further hampered by the fact that the reduced gravity causes their boots to slip more readily on paved or smooth surfaces, giving them less traction to force their bodies forward. The Na'vi compensate for this loss of frictional force by curling their large toes into the soft ground, and Pandoran six-legged animals use their many feet to gain a purchase on protruding rocks or small crevices.
		+
		+	* Flying animals can take advantage of both the lower gravity, which reduces the weight of their body, and the increased air density, which requires more force to displace with the downward/rearward stroke of their wings, and thus gives the animals body more impetus with each flap. The downside is that the denser air is harder to move through, and requires highly-efficient streamlining to achieve high flight speeds.
		+
		+	* Plants are subject to greater wind force, as the greater air density means that the moving air carries more kinetic energy and more momentum, and the plants, leaves, stems, branches, and trunks must all have a greater strength and/or flexibility to resist it.
		+
		+	==Day-Night Cycle==
		+	[[File:Daytime pandora.jpg\|thumb\|250px\|The surface of Pandora during the day]]
		+	Pandora receives significant light from Alpha Centauri B (ACB). As a result, Pandoran nights are never dark during half of the Polyphemian year, but instead are more like Earthly dusk. At the closest point in its orbit, ACB is about 2,300 times as bright as Earth's full moon; at its furthest point, it is still one hundred and seventy times as bright. During the other half of the year when ACB is in the daytime sky, many Pandoran nights are illuminated by both Polyphemus's huge disk and the reflected light from other nearby moons. Truly dark nights are uncommon. Polyphemus occasionally eclipses ACB at night for about one hundred minutes, but the light reflected by the planet still keeps the night from being dark.
		+
		+	When ACB shares the daytime sky with ACA, at its closest it adds about half a percent to the total illumination. When the 2 stars are close together in the sky, the effect of ACB's more orange light is unnoticeable. But, as they separate over the years, an orange tint may be seen in areas shadowed from ACA's direct illumination. At its most distant, ACB is about 2,700 times dimmer than ACA and does not produce noticeable lighting effects. However, it still appears as a blindingly-bright tiny orange disk in the sky.
		+
		+	Because of its high axial tilt (29°), Pandora exhibits considerable annual variation in the day-to-night ratio. In addition, its elliptical orbit produces seasonal temperature variations and a range in daytime illumination of about ten percent.
		+
		+	==Geography==
		+	The terrain on Pandora differs somewhat from place to place. With each terrain region, there is a different clan to go with it. The humans have settled in the jungle region which is home to the [[Omaticaya Clan\|Omaticaya clan]]. There are different ecosystems within each region, but frequently the wild life, such as the banshee, is the same. It also appears that floating land masses are not only isolated to the jungle region, but are widespread as suggested in [[James Cameron's Avatar: The Game\|Avatar: The Game]]. The different terrains are identified as jungle, mountains, plains (savanna), and oceans.
		+
		+	Like on Earth, the forests of Pandora contain a wide diversity of flora and fauna. These are all part of the [[Pandoran Neural Network\|giant neural network]] that covers Pandora. The forests are full of bioluminescent life that glows in shades of blue, green, indigo and violet during the night.
		+
		+	== Natural Resources ==
		+	Pandora is a treasure trove of both living and nonliving natural resources. It is the first planetary body to host intelligent sentient lifeforms away from Earth and is also home to a plethora of diverse and spectacular species unlike anything ever speculated by humanity. In terms of nonliving resources, several large areas of the moon's surface contain the extremely rare superconducting mineral [[unobtanium]]. This mineral is worth twenty million standard dollars per unrefined kilogram and twice that in its refined state. The mineral's superconductivity makes it a baffling scientific discovery.
		+
		+	==Trivia==
		+	*The name Pandora refers to the first woman according to Greek mythology. She was a very curious woman who was given a jar (Pithos) and was told not to open it. Pandora was not able to resist opening the jar and, when she did, all the evils in the world were released. When she discovered this, she hastened to close the jar, and managed to contain one evil before it escaped: "Hopelessness". Therefore all humans still had hope, an idea which would eventually conquer the evils. Pandora was not punished for her actions, as Zeus knew she would open Pithos.
		+	*Pandora is also the name of the planet in the video game [[Wikipedia:Borderlands_(video_game)\|Borderlands]], though the planet is a complete desert.
		+	*Polyphemus refers to a cyclops in Greek mythology, the son of Poseidon who was later blinded by Odysseus.
		+	*In the original script, Pandora's flora was mostly violet, blue and cyan in color.
		+	*In reality, one of the smaller moons of Saturn is named Pandora.

Well with what happened to shrek. The third movie was too much kid friendly and lost some of the adult humor the first two had. Combined with thew family element it diminished it's funny factor. Thats why we didnt see the shrek babies in shrek 4

	Quaritch led the Assault on the Tree of Souls against the Na'vi in his Dragon Assault Gunship. While the Na'vi's numbers appeared to give them the advantage, Quaritch's heavily armed soldiers quickly dispatched the lightly-armed Na'vi, despite some losses. During the battle, while pursuing Jake, his gunship was attacked by Trudy's [[Samson 16\|Samson]], allowing Jake to escape. Quaritch's gunship was able to outgun and sufficiently damage the Samson before destroying it with a missile, killing Trudy in the process. Advancing unopposed towards the Tree of Souls, the tide of the battle is unexpectedly changed when Pandora's wildlife, seemingly at the direction of [[Eywa]] herself, attacked the RDA forces in mass. With all escorts distracted or destroyed, Jake was able to board the [[Valkyrie]] shuttle containing two "daisy cutter" bombs, and destroyed it, leaving only Quaritch in his Dragon gunship. Despite Quaritch's best efforts, Jake still managed to cause catastrophic damage to the gunship, causing it to lose control. Boarding his [[Amplified Mobility Platform\|AMP suit]], Quaritch leaped from the Dragon before it crashed, saving himself. Now alone, he advanced to the Tree of Souls. Quaritch stumbled across the module containing the link pod being used by Jake, but was attacked by Neytiri riding a [[thanator]] before he could destroy it. He lost his 30mm rifle, but killed the thanator with his [[AMP Suit Knife\|AMP suit knife]], leaving Neytiri trapped beneath her slain mount.

-	The damage to the AMP suit canopy reduced visibility to near-zero and allowed toxic Pandoran air into the suit, forcing Quaritch to don an exopack. Realizing Jake's same weakness, Quaritch made a break for the module and managed to smash a window, an empty [[link unit]], and part of a wall open before resuming combat. This exposed Jake's human body to the toxic air, interrupting the link between Jake and his avatar, allowing Quaritch to subdue Jake. Intending to use Jake's own [[Na'vi Knife\|dagger]] to cut his avatar's throat in a symbolic act of retribution for his betrayal, Quaritch's own life was ended by two arrows to the chest fired by Neytiri, who had taken the time to free herself from the thanator carcass during the fight between Jake and Quaritch.	+	The damage to the AMP suit canopy reduced visibility to near-zero and allowed toxic Pandoran air into the suit, forcing Quaritch to don an exopack.

	They have only vestigial legs (unlike their cousin the [[Great Leonopteryx\|great leonopteryx]]) which might suggest a life mainly in flight, only landing to feed their young. It also suggests that prey will be smaller airborne creatures or possibly creatures perched high in the trees as they could not grab on to something while in flight, as seen in Earth eagles.

-	The wings have a claw or finger that is used to cling on to cliffs and to "walk" on flat ground, possibly by dragging the body forward or more likely maintaining center gravity over the wings. All and all, they are not as agile on the ground as in the air.	+	The wings have a claw or finger that is used to cling on to cliffs and to "walk" on flat ground, possibly by dragging the body forward or more likely maintaining center gravity over the wings.

	Their leathery skin has a wide range of complex color schemes. Some banshees have been seen which display only two colors. Since the color concentration is mainly on the back of the animals, it is assumed that the colors are for mating display. Both male and females display these complex patterns of colors.

Yeah. It's not that I don't like the idea of ''Avatar'' being around as long as JC can possibly keep it in the media, I do, but four seems a bit... extreme. No, that's not the word I'm looking for. Well... even though I have no lack of confidence in JC's ability to make a damn good movie (as he always does), I mean, look at what happened to the ''Shrek'' movies, for example. They tried to keep the films going as long as possible and ruined the films. No one wanted to see the fourth one because it was one of those things that needed to end. ''Avatar'' is a different story, though, so... it should be interesting to see where JC goes with it.

	The story starts with [[Ryan Lorenz]], a marine looking to start a new life on the moon of [[Pandora]]. After an accident on [[Earth]] in which his family was killed, he pulled strings prior to leaving Earth to gain admission into the Avatar Program, a top-secret scientific program created by the [[RDA]], who is running a vast mining operation on Pandora looking for a mineral called [[unobtanium]], which is believed to be a solution to the energy crisis on Earth.

-	Once on Pandora, Lorenz is linked to his avatar body, a hybrid of [[human]] and [[Na'vi]] (the indigenous people of Pandora) genetic material. After quickly mastering how to drive his avatar body, he is given his first mission of exploring deeper into the Pandoran forest to locate and mark deposits of unobtanium on his GPS. He completes this, but finds that he has ventured too deep into the forest and has lost all contact with the RDA base of operations. While trying to find a safe place to stash his avatar body for the night, he finds the dormant [[Tree of Souls]]. He is rendered unconscious and experiences a very weird and disturbing dream, which is actually a message from [[Eywa]] showing him what will happen to Pandora, should the RDA succeed in their endeavor. Ryan is then discovered by Sylwanin and the [[Ni'awve Clan\|Ni'awve clan]] and taken into the hometree so he might learn their ways and of their struggle against the RDA. After the clan's shaman Atanwey had been kidnapped by the humans, Ryan defected to the Na'vi and aided in their warding off of human invaders. The leader, Tsu'hak wanted to move his people from the Valley of Origins, but when he, Ryan Lorenz and [[Tsamlok]] went to clear the way, Tsu'hak was captured. It was again Ryan Lorenz who freed him, as Tsamlok was injured in the initial attack. when Ryan returned with Tsu'hak he learned that Sylwanin also has been captured and taken to RDA base. Ryan Lorenz full of anger went after her and saved her, killing many humans on the way. Ryan then was contacted by Moran and [[Grace Augustine]], who told Ryan to go to the Tree of Souls. There he was confronted by [[Major Cage]] and Ryan defeated him. Ryan activated the Three of souls and returned to the Ni'awve. They planned to attack [[Hell's Gate]] and drive the humans off, but Ryan Lorenz's human body was shot before the attack started.	+	Once on Pandora, Lorenz is linked to his avatar body, a hybrid of [[human]] and [[Na'vi]] (the indigenous people of Pandora) genetic material.
