Somebody mentioned the rushed feel and sometimes faulty info was intentional as it is supposed to be information stolen from the RDA.
The real thing is James Cameron's Pandorapedia that contains pretty much everything to know about Pandora, the Na'vi and the plot lines. It is meant as a guide for the franchise so that other authors can cover books, graphic novel and so on ... without derailing the plot, giving up the plot of the sequels, or create inconsistencies.
We need to wait and see if and how much of it gets released to the public.

Regardless, please read the following, as it will help aid in learning about Pandora through the ASG:  I all seriousness, though, whether it was rushed or not, they still had a substantial amount in that book, and it is totally worth getting and reading. I give it 4 stars. |

I give it 4 stars. I heart you. Let's be friends. (translation: hahahahaha!---3 minutes later---hee hee, chuckle, snicker) I LOVE my ASG. Without it we would not have the sense of community we do, and a LOT of "canon" points to argue. I am all for old scripts, but what made it in to the movie and official books (mistakes of not) takes precedence--as long as we get to blame FOX for any screw ups. |

Sure, if you want to, that's fine: I'm in the Facebook forums, though the pic I describe is probably incorrect. |

Just voted, gave it 4 stars. It's a great book if you are really into Avatar. It would be nice if there was more info, some of the mistakes weren't there (whether intentional or not, it's just off putting to me), and so on. But I expect a more complete resource will be made available at some point.

As do I. The dictionary in the back of the Guide is SO outdated now.

Yeah, I was thinking about that tonight while watching Avatar. 2 months ago it was the most amazing thing. But once something is in print, "you can't take the ink off the page," and a lot of words were misspelled (I don't use the term "illegal," is it is incorrect and skxawng to do so). But it still has great background info. And fortunately (for us at least), we have LearnNavi.org, and minimal (indirect) access to herr professor, so we get first word on new words and corrections. Yaay! |

It is! If you can get it, do! You won't regret it. But you would be surprised how many plants explode on Pandora. You also get information on Na'vi traditions and other things like that.

Picked up a copy of the SG at Borders the day after I saw the movie, great for plausible explanations for all the different things going on on Pandora and how the RDA stuff works, fun to read

You know the book was excelent but the pictures wre made badly. It seems like someone saw the movie and has been using a old version of photoshop for a few months. Dont get me wrong there were a few good pictures and he knowledge gained was amazing, but I still have some trouble with the photos
