Fantastic Voyage: Will Cameron Use Avatar effects?

The 1966 sci-fi movie Fantastic Voyage, is to be re-made this year by Roland Emmerich (who bought us 2012, 10,000 BC plus The Day After Tomorrow and Independence Day) along with James Cameron's Lightstorm Entertainment. 

You may not be too familiar with this title, but when we mention that the 80's remake of this movie was called Innerspace we think you will be quite excited indeed! Well, we were!  To those not particularly well-versed in '60s sci-fi, we'll remind you that Fantastic Voyage is about a team of scientists who climb inside a ship and get miniaturised so they can travel through the bloodstream of their dying colleague and save him from his deadly blood clot.

Now we're never too sure what to make of re-makes, think War of the Worlds, The Time Machine (eek!), Invasion of the Body Snatchers...the list goes on. However we're willing to give this a chance. We loved Innerspace and we love James Cameron - what could go wrong?
