James Cameron May Film ‘Avatar 2′ & ‘Avatar 3′ Back-To-Back Posted: 08 Aug 2010 02:16 PM PDT Many people have questioned some of the decisions that 20th Century Fox has made over the years, but when it came to Avatar, figuring out whether to make sequels or not was about as simple a choice as they come. The movie did cost around $250 million to make -- an astounding price tag leading some to fear certain failure -- but when it stormed box offices en route to record $749 million domestic and $1.9 billion foreign totals to equal an unheard of total of almost $3 billion, the sequels went ahead and gave themselves the greenlight. The only trouble with the next chapters in director James Cameron epic blockbuster saga is just how long it took to make the first movie.

If you haven't read anything by Kindt, then you should definitely check something out. Kindt is one of my favorite authors and is great with creator-owned material. Revolver is an original graphic novel about a character named Sam whose life is somehow split into two different realities. One life is normal and filled with routine, while the other is set in a post-apocalyptic world where he has to fight to survive. One of the most interesting parts of the story is how Sam deals with the worlds and how his psyche deals with it as well. The story definitely has a lot of twists and turns and I definitely don't want to spoil the book for anyone by revealing any further details [...]
