Warning: if you haven't seen Avatar, minor plot details given away:

I was introduced to the existence of the Wilhelm Scream just a few weeks ago.
Then, when watching the movie Avatar, I *thought* I heard it just as one of the
soldiers in a robot-walker is getting crushed by a hammer-head rhinoceros, and
then perhaps again a minute or two later when a different soldier is getting
crushed between two pallets of explosives.    But I haven't been able to confirm
this or find any references!  Can anybody confirm one way or the other?
Charles
