i don't want to read the script (don't want to be spoiled) but from what you've read...can you compare it to any movie you've seen?
 
Here is part of the opening if it is indeed real

[BLACKOUT]It is a century from now, and the population of our tired
planet has tripled. Finally, drowning in its own toxic
waste, starvation and poverty, the population has topped
out at a nice even 20 billion.
The Earth is dying, covered with a gray mold of human
civilization. Even the moon is spiderwebbed with city
lights on its dark side. Overpopulation, over-
development, nuclear terrorism, environmental warfare
tactics, radiation leakage from power plants and waste
dumps, toxic waste, air pollution, deforestation,
pollution and overfishing of the oceans, global warming,
ozone depletion, loss of biodiversity through
extinction... all of these have combined to make the once
green and beautiful planet a terminal cess-pool.

Yes, actually. Think of it as a Dances with Wolves meets Cameron's Aliens meets Discovery Channel's Alien Planet.
 
i like the opening. it's a foreshadowing of what will happen to our planet if we continue on the path we're on...

so...native americans, xenomorphs, and alien animals huh? AWESOME!!! haha...j/m

but foreal, i take that it has the spiritual aspects of Dances with Wolves with the action of Aliens and the realism of DC's Alien Planet?
 
Cameron made so much off Titanic, he could never have to work again in his life.

It's great he's finally making another movie, I just have a feeling this'll be a 90% CG-fest film to capitalize off of his name, just like Lucas.

the main difference being Cameron is 20 times the filmmaker that Lucas is.

which shows that he loves what he is doing. he doesnt make it anymore for the money.

and i also think that lucas didnt make the prequels because of the money. or did he? doesnt he have a lot of money?
 
I checked out so called script, which actually isn't script (it is more like script treatment I would say).

Still the whole idea sounds amazing :up:
 
are there any big spoilers in the script? er....treatment?
