We've been handed down a mandate to share every crumb we stumble upon in regards to a certain upcoming CGI feature about a race of blue people who live in an enchanted forest filled with giant inhabitable flora and predatory feline creatures, and who share only one female among them.

We've liveblogged Tom Rothman and James Cameron's opening panel remarks, and provided an in-depth analysis of the 25 minutes of footage previewed at Comic-Con -- but Avatar superfans still can't seem to get enough! (Do they have a name yet? How about "Avatards?")

He called Pandora a "mystical and amazing planet like you've never seen," and that the film "is a really amazing movie," adding, "Now if you'll excuse me, I got a Kraken to kill."
