Cameron has 'road map' for Avatar 2

An Avatar sequel? Already? Don't we have to wait, like, 14 years for the next one or something?

It's odd to think of James Cameron hopping from one film straight onto another, even if that first film is officially the most successful movie ever made and even if the next one is a sequel. Nonetheless, big JC has indeed made his intentions clear to expand the Avatar universe, and he's not hanging around either.

According to various sources, pre-pre-pre-production on Avatar 2 has apparently already begun. SlashFilm are claiming that technical crew members are being hired, while the latest issue of Empire magazine sees Cameron claim, "I have a road map" when asked about a sequel in an interview.

Not a slamdunk? Please. Avatar 2 is the most guaranteed, super-duper, NBA Jam-style "He's on fire!" slamdunk in this history of basketball analogies. It's the Wesley Snipes to the rest of the industry's Woody Harrelson. The suits at Fox literally haven't stopped jizzing since Avatar was released. Avatar 2 is inevitable.

Of course, Cameron is not the kind of person to necessarily rush into matters like these. He'd need to find a reason to expand the Avatar universe (other than having hundred dollar bill toilet paper the rest of his life) and the way the first movie ended, there's no obvious extension to that story. It's kind of complete as it is.

The Na'vi can't move off of Pandora. Anyone who tries to invade will surely just face the same onslaught as last time, and us the same movie. A prequel could work, but the term 'road map' suggests the story is movie forward, not back. Any ideas, smart guys?

Perhaps Pandora could be invaded by a horde of savage Equipoises.
