Avatar Series Could End If Avatar 2 Flops, Says Director
(GameSpot PSP News)

That moving mirror reflects all the dots and markers, and it creates a bunch of false markers.`So, we`ve thrown a lot of horsepower, innovation, imagination, and new technology at the problem, and it`s taken us about a year and a half now to work out how we`re going to do it.`The first cast image from the Avatar sequel was revealed in September.
