    Since the Na'vi have tails, I would think that the tails would possibly be integrated in to the language. Sort of a body language thing. Animals with tails often use them to communicate. But perhaps I am making things far to complicated.

    "Why did she slap me? I said she had nice eyes"
    "You said she had winged thighs. Nice eyes has a tail swish from left to right, not a twirl"

    I think they should stop saying this is going to be the enxt big thing, and wait to see if it actually happens before celebrating. Honestly, it doesn't look groundbreaking.

    "It may be too early to start translating Hamlet into the language of Pandora's blue aliens, but it's fascinating to read about Frommer's process and the detail that went into creating Na'vi."

    Wasn't Hamlet originally done in Klingon?

    What if, one day, we find an alien race(s) that speaks all the made up languages humans have created? It would be just as mind blowing to find one that speaks English though....

    If the article said they were still working on principal photography or had gone back on location for re-shoots, then I would be worried. Finishing up effects work? No worries.

    Transformers 2 was technically unfinished by the movie was released. They patched it up rrrrriiiiiiiiight before the Japanese premiere.

    It's not an uncommon thing to see, but it's getting out of hand. Movie makers should stop announcing the release dates even before the scripts and casting are finished.
