The word "avatar" in Hindu mythology refers to the incarnation of a deity on Earth, normally in a human or animal form. One opinion is that in the movie humans thought that they were superior to the Na'vi, so manifesting themselves as one of them could be used as a deity-like means of control or influence. The word "avatar" can also refer to an embodiment or temporary manifestation of an entity, idea, or principle; a human connects to and "embodies" their avatar body. Other opinions believe that this is the intended meaning.
Cameron did preliminary work as early as 1995 but labored on it till it's release date which was December 19, 1997.

The Director James Cameron wrote the screen play in 1996. He had a dream and saw the world of Pandora. The screenplay was forgotten until 2004 when he decided the technology was ready to make it. It went over some changes but the main story is the same. James Cameron intends to write a novel version of Avatar and create two sequels of Avatar.
