A NOTE ON CANON
James Cameron's Avatar has a number of sources for canon-gathering - the 2009 movie, the various books and wikis online, the game, the 2007 script, Word of God, the original scriptment when Jake was still Josh, and the deleted scenes. I intend to use all of them to flesh out the world that the movie gives( and this includes taking characters and creatures from the original script, which I'll refer to as 880-canon).
However, to me, the movie trumps the other sets of sources, being the one we actually see on screen.
What this means is that if I read something that Word of God has said, or the wikis have written up from the books, that I don't think works, I will a) try and rework it until it does or b) ignore it.
