The only sci-fi movie that I've ever been offered that, had circumstances been different, I would have definitely done, was 'Avatar.' And I literally couldn't do it because of my schedule.

This planet has - or rather had - a problem, which was this: most of the people living on it were unhappy for pretty much of the time.
