"The anticipation may be building, but we’ll all have to wait for the
82nd Academy Awards on March 7th to find out just how many Oscars the
global box-office smash Avatar will receive. [...] But there’s an even bigger question absorbing Avatar’s millions of fans: What will Cameron, who has already indicated that he’s planning to write a novel based on Avatar,
do for a screen encore? As it happens, I have a suggestion: skip the
sequels on faraway Pandora’s sister worlds, and do the prequel.
Admittedly, the movie I have in mind (set in a world that Avatar
hints at) would lack the blue-skinned Na’vi people, but it would still
feature Jake Scully, this time in his real body, on the most intriguing
planet of all: Earth. And given a global audience that can’t get
enough of Cameron’s work, how many wouldn’t pay big bucks for a chance
to take a Pandora-style, sensory-expanding guided tour of our own
planet? It would be part of a harrowing tale of environmental
degradation, resource scarcity, and perennial conflict in the twilight
years of humanity’s decline. Think of it as Avatar: Earth’s Last Stand.[...]"
