Avatar was a sensation when it debuted in 2009. The science fiction film was not only nominated for nine Academy Awards, but it was a box office smash, earning over $2 billion during its theatrical run. The film is set over 100 years in the future where humans have begun to colonize a moon named Pandora in order to mine its valuable minerals. While the film's story of humans destroying another planet for its resources wasn't groundbreaking, its visual effects and world-building were (not to mention reigniting the 3D craze). Director James Cameron utilized groundbreaking motion capture techniques to create photorealistic characters and a complete ecosystem for the setting of Pandora.
