Often enough these lawsuits are bullshit, but this one may have some legs.

Fox & James Cameron Slapped With $50M ‘Avatar’ Copyright Suit
Quote :
Artist William Roger Dean filed a complaint against James Cameron and 20th Century Fox on Thursday seeking more than $50 million in damages over Avatar. Unlike past Avatar plaintiffs, Dean has an established pedigree. He is a well known artist who has created album covers for such big-selling bands as Yes and Asia and exhibited his fantasy landscapes and other work around the world. In fact, it is the ubiquity of his work, as well as a movie proposal based on it that he took at the 2005 Cannes Film Fest, that has Dean convinced the look of the 2009 3D sci-fi film were derived from his images.

The reason Dean is suing now, is that Cameron has his checkbook open for the Avatar sequel.  If Cameron is smart, he'll hire Dean on as a 'landscape consultant' for a couple mil & all parties will be happy.
