The first official pic from James Cameron's mildly anticipated sci-fi epic Avatar has hit the web.

Sadly, it's just a shot of JC and star Sam Worthington sitting in front of an intriguing but vague computery-looking machine thing.

Vital issues thrown up by the pic...

Article continues below

1. James Cameron can point with two fingers at once. Could he be alerting Worthington to some incredible two-headed alien beast or something?

2. Sam Worthington has got a tattoo on his right bicep. Looks like some kind of spiky, Celtic-type design. Or could it be part of his character - some form of 'branding', seared onto him by the two-headed alien beast in an intense torture sequence?

3. Worthington's character has to carry a backpack at some point. Does he, say, pack up all his worldly possessions and flee the two-headed alien beast? Then again, it could just be Worthington's own PE kit or something...

Question: On a scale of 1 to 50, how excited are you about Avatar? '1' would be 'not at all', '50' would be 'I have quit my job to obsessively refresh the official website once every five minutes, twenty-four hours a day'.
