Michael here with a report on the James Cameron / Peter Jackson panel. I'll be updating this post soon with videos and audio.
Here is our podcast of the entire panel:
Both the best news and funniest line of the night came when an audience member asked Cameron whether he was still interested in making Battle Angel Alita.
Cameron said that he really wants to do it, but that asking about his next project now is like asking a mother-to-be about her next baby while she's crowning.
Cameron talks Battle Angel:
Cameron also revealed that he hopes to include a feature on the Avatar Blu-Ray where you can see the actors' performances and those of their CG counterparts side by side so the audience will be able to see how perfect the facial capture has become, and how even the smallest details are replicated.
There was also a great discussion on the absolute importance of story and emotion in film that generated a huge audience applause.

Also, head over to Movies Online, which has a transcript of yesterday's post-footage press conference with Cameron. It's a very good read.
