How the fuck does he do it? He has odds stacked against him by not playing the sequel game and then completely annihilates the box office. It shouldn't be possible.

Yeah but Avatar is fucking shit.

Having said that, I do like the way Cameron funds all his mental deep sea exploration stuff with the money he makes from his garbage movies.

come talk to me when he can make a franchise that's worth giving a shit about

Bow down to the true kings of cinema.

Avatar is dead.

Bury it.

Consider this mercy.

hey now, let's not go crazy. Avatar is about as cliche as you can get.

Blue Pocahontas isn't that original.

How will you guys feel when the Avatar Franchise tops Marvel and Star Wars box earnings? People always talk trash about Old Jim before he completely wows them. A reminder that Titanic was expected to bomb and The Terminator was considered filler by theaters before it blew up through word of mouth.

My mom and dad only watch movies once every 3 or 4 years, they saw both Avatar and Titanic in theaters. His movies are cultural events. No other director has these anymore.
>>
>>70446950

Terminator 2 was just a fun action movie to me.

But then I watched it with a commentary by him. And just listening to him talk and explain his thoughts and visions for the movie.... I appreciated what a true genius he is.

I've never watched Avatar and I'll die without ever watching it.

>>70450944
It was an experience, kind of like riding a roller coaster. That's it really.

I've only seen it twice and got bored when trying to watch it recently around the beginning.
