I like technology and I can't wait to see this movie.

James Cameron turned down a chance to make "Avatar" for Twentieth Century Fox more than a decade ago to wait until technology caught up with his imagination.
Audiences will decide this weekend whether the 3-D science-fiction adventure was worth the delay and the estimated $380 million that News Corp.'s Fox and partners Dune Entertainment and Ingenious Film Partners spent to make and market the movie.
As of Friday, "Avatar" accounted for 87 percent of weekly ticket sales at online vendor Fandango.com. It could generate $75 million in U.S. ticket sales this weekend, according to Gitesh Pandya, editor of New York-based Box Office Guru.

"Avatar" was shot using a dual-camera 3-D system that Cameron, 55, invented with partner Vince Pace after the director's 1997 success with "Titanic," the all-time top-grossing film. Executives at Fox, the studio that backed "Titanic," were willing to start work on "Avatar" almost right away.
