All's fair in Love, War, and Resleeving
Cameron's "Avatar" trailer http://www.traileraddict.com/trailer/avatar/trailer evidently the yarn of a disabled veteren who participates in a war on an alien world... a 10 foot tall human/feline alien body being among the issued gear (it looks more like sophisticated telerobotics than actual EP style resleeving but man... it looks cool!)

Damn, that does look cool. I got the feeling that settlers resleeved into the feline-style morphs to survive on the alien world, developed their own culture, and then ended up in conflict against the normal humans (for independence, perhaps).

I don't have the link handy atm but Cameron has said that it's basically a retelling of Dances With Wolves but with aliens, dragons, and space marines in place of native Americans, wolves, and Union soldiers.

Saw 'Avatar' last night, and the above is a spot-on summarization of the storyline. GORGEOUS visuals, I must say. Definitely worthwhile.
