You mean like "Apache Rifles"? [huh]

EDIT to add plot synopsis to save everyone some googling:

As a Captain in the Union Calvary, Jeff Stanton (Audie) is charged with trying to force the Indians back to their reservation. Miners also have tried to dig for gold and torture and kill the Indians to do so. Stanton sees the injustice to the Indians and tries to help them. He also falls in love with a half-breed girl. During a peaceful visit to the Indian camp, Stanton is betrayed by the Colonel in charge. Stanton is seriously injured but recovers, and is put back in charge of the post command.

Stand to be corrected but I still say there is a big difference between todays Stars and the Stars of yesterday! Not too many actually served for their country, let alone in the manner of an Audie or a Jimmy.

Cameron does not plagiarize; he pays homage. ;)

Another film Cameron evidentally paid "homage" to.

Battlefield Earth -- Earth is invaded by ten-foot tall aliens (in the person of John Travolta and Forrest Whittaker)

Avatar -- Humans invade Pandora, a planet populated by nine-foot tall aliens.

lol
