For San Francisco film lovers, we are pleased to present this story from “The Moving Picture.”

While we still haven’t see any images depicting a scene from James Cameron’s Avatar, behind the scene pics have slowly been trickling out. The latest comes from The New York Times, along with an article on 3-D filmmaking and how it’s in “danger of becoming Hollywood’s latest flub”.

The sci-fi flick tells the story of an ex-marine, thrust unwillingly into an effort to settle and exploit an exotic planet rich in bio-diversity, who eventually crosses over to lead the indigenous race in a battle for survival. It stars Sam Worthington, Zoe Saldana, Sigourney Weaver, Michelle Rodriguez, Giovanni Ribisi and Joel David Moore.

Check out the latest photo directly below, followed by the previously released set images. Avatar opens December 18, 2009.
