This Avatar international featurette invites viewers to engage with the exotic planet Pandora and the human hardware that James Cameron and Co. designed for this movie. We see Sam Worthington arriving on the hostile planet where scientist Sigourney Weaver and pilot Michelle Rodriguez do their rounds, under the watchful eye of tough-talking macho-security chief Stephen Lang.

What we don't see so much: the nine-foot blue aliens that have freaked some folks. This is a soft walk-up--which, by the way, the movie itself will do, pulling the viewers into this new world. The L.A. press won't get to see the final product before December 10, the same date as the London premiere.
