Cameron decided it was time for “Avatar” to
give back. He and wife Suzy Amis Cameron partnered with
public speaking competition “Words That Shook the
World” to screen the film for 4,500 Los Angeles-area
school children (and Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa) at LA Live.
After the film, students competed in Earth Day-themed speeches
for an all-"Avatar" judging panel: Michelle Rodriguez,
Giovanni Ribisi and Joel David Moore. There were no vote-offs,
just scholarships awarded by the competition's founders,
Richard Greene and Magda Rod. - TheWrap.com
