December 20, 2009 -- Now only did 'Avatar' director James Cameron receive his coveted star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame Friday (December 19), but the 'Titanic' director pulled in a whopping $27 million for his new film's first weekend at box offices across the country.

And the accolades continue for this star-packed 3-D film, shot in a slew of celebrated travel locations. Among them are Hawaii's Hamakua Coast, the Kauai rain forest, the Hughes Aircraft plant in El Segundo, and the Down Under city of Wellington, New Zealand.

The extensive 'Avatar' cast includes accomplished actors Zoe Saldana, Sigourney Weaver, Sam Worthington, Michelle Rodriguez, Joel Moore, Laz Alonso, and Giovanni Ribisi.

'Avatar' opened across the country on December 18.
