Terminator
T-2
The Abyss
Titanic
True Lies
... why Avatar? It's his most uninspiringly derivative film.... only distinguished by effects.
why?
James Cameron ... are you so invested in CGI that you don't want to work with actors and practical effects anymore? It's exhaustingly labor-intensive and emotionally/physically/psychologically taxing, I know, but your earlier films were vibrant with creative energy. I miss that so much. Folks, we may be witnessing another tragic case of Lucas Syndrome.

Re: Avatar Sequels
Maybe you can give me a hint because it's one of the few Cameron films I have no desire to own.Watch the BTS stuff
Re: Avatar Sequels
Cameron is definitely not "just" into the tech side of things. He's just as much into the story and acting. From what I have seen I would say he's did a lot to get the actors to really shine. You could always buy the film for the BTS stuff, keep that and give the actual film to someone you like/dislike
I thought the BTS was really well made and very interesting.

Re: Avatar Sequels
It's just that, for me, Avatar was the first film of his where it wasn't as apparent in the final product.
That's historically true regarding all his films. In that regard Cameron is characteristically exceptionally meticulous.Cameron is definitely not "just" into the tech side of things.

Re: Avatar Sequels
I've always had a hard time putting my finger on exactly what was wrong with Avatar. Something was definitely off, but what? I agree it's one of the only Cameron movies that I don't have any desire to own. But what quality of Avatar did that?
Terminator had a plotline that was pretty simple. An angel comes down from the future to put ***** in Mary's womb and protect her from King Herod's assassin.
Titanic's plot was so predictable that people joked about it at the time, and I don't just mean the ship sinks.
But it doesn't seem to take away from those two movies at all. Meanwhile Avatar's canned storyline goes over like a lead balloon for some reason while the other stuff didn't.

Re: Avatar Sequels
Might just be because of the characters are computer generated and that does put off some people...
I loved the movie though
As for the sequels, those should have better stories now that he has help.

Re: Avatar Sequels
If you didn't like avatar it's because you're too old or too stupid.
If you're old it's because you've seen enough movies to know avatar is stupid.
If you're not old enough, you're too stupid to know why what I just said makes sense.
