Avatar: sequel talk has begun

057_220_149FHere at Sound-Screen, we’re among the lucky ones to have already seen James Cameron’s Avatar, but we’re not allowed to tell you what we thought of it (yet) – expect a full review up here on Monday.

In the meantime, there’s already a lot of talk about this being the first film in a trilogy – as James Cameron has been saying in numerous interviews (including this one here), the really tough thing about bringing Avatar to the screen was creating the digital “assets” – things like rocks, trees, plants etc… that were then placed in the landscapes of Pandora.

Anyway, never content not to have a gigantic project on the go, Cameron’s being linked with yet another major event movie. According to MTV, the next film in his sights is a remake of sci-fi classic “Fantastic Voyage” in 3D. Cameron would produce.

“In the original, a small team attempts to save the life of a nearly-assassinated diplomat through a uniquely invasive surgical procedure. The magic of science allows the doctors to be shrunken down to microscopic size and injected into the ailing diplomat’s body. Piloting a specialized submersible craft — also tiny — the team attempts to repair with the diplomat’s condition — a blood clot in his brain — on a cellular level.”

It’s hard not to anticipate the fun Cameron could have with the insides of a person, all in 3D!
