No you can not make anything like Avatar on Daz Studio.  I hate to sound negative but the software is just not up to the task.  You need certain things like dynamic clothing and dynamic figures that you don't have in studio.  You will need to use something like lightwave or Maya Cinema4D or even Blender which is free to create something like Avatar and you will also need a render farm to do the rendering.  What Daz Studio is good for is Stills and short animations where things are not too complicated. Daz studio is a good place to get your feet wet in 3D but it is not capable of high end work just yet maybe in the future.

Maybe not like Avatar, but it is certainly good enough  for animation. I am currently working on a multi-part animation that will total over an hour in length (currently over 7 minutes of it are done, rendered and on my editing app's time line) - aprox a month to complete over 7 mins to date.

I have not used anything but D|S (2.3.3.138) to remder the image sequences. (compositing, sound design, and editing in other apps)

So, while D}S is not Maya, D|S with the advantage of pre-rigged figures and props can be quite an advantage over an app when you have to create EVERYTHING from scratch.

Not totally disagreeing with you, but I think your accessment of D|S is a bit harsh.
