Avatar - 3-Disc Extended Collector's Edition (DVD)

Jake Sully, a paraplegic war veteran who is selected to participate in the Avatar programme, in which genetically-engineered human beings are sent to explore a small moon called Pandora.

There, the indigenous Navi tribe of three-metre-high, human-like beings have long lived a peaceful existence in harmony with their plant-covered world, despite their fearsome warrior skills. And when Jake meets Navi princess Neytiri, he falls in love with her and becomes integrated into her clan - little knowing that his mission on Pandora has a far more sinister aim than he realised.

Before long, Jake is caught up in an epic battle that could decide the fate of an entire world.
