How do we know they're stupid again?

Stupid Avatar movies?

@@LostMachinima Alright - well, if that’s all you have to say, it be best if you don’t say anything at all. Judging any director by IMDB, Rotten Tomatoes or Metacritic (lol), is erroneous and a lapse in true ability to discuss. I’ll say it like this: most directors don’t have even 1/10th the remote talent, ingenuity, or skill James Cameron made for himself in his 4 decades of making films.

When this interview was made, Disney hadn't bought FOX yet

Extremely annoying!

Pfft. Did you watch the whole thing? She was very attentive.

@@Lintahlo I watched and she just sounds like a broken robot

She's obviously inexperienced and nervous. Jim was very respectful.

Um no, he has it planned; The Last Abortion wasn’t planned.

No idiot. He planned it all.

@@-.-.11 Like a sensible person.

Maybe the "yeah"s and "mhmm"s are a bit much, but she is definitely invested. I think she's a little nervous, which is understandable and it's cool to see such a young interviewer have an opportunity to have this casual a conversation with someone like Cameron.

@@darthdorkus I mean it’s James Cameron who wouldn’t be nervous

@@loudtaste1046 I'm 33 years old and I know I would be stumbling over my words speaking to the man himself.

So have you ever watched a movie before or - oh, so you’re just saying Avatar was unoriginal? I guess Star Wars - which wasn’t original either should have not been invested in? How about John Wick? How about Inception - a blatant rip-off? See, when you say: it’s a waste of money and talent, that couldn’t be further from the truth. It astounds me so many will boast how Avatar isn’t original but can’t seemingly grasp that all of cinema is stolen/taken/remade from something else.

​@@darknessnaxxion It astounds you because you have plenty of assumptions and you think you own the truth when you're in fact missing the point. What I've said, and maybe you need to read again, is "barely original" and I'm mostly comparing to Cameron's previous films which had a lot more personality. Derivative doesn't necessarily mean unoriginal because it's not bad as long as you're doing something creative, that's why his Alien sequel worked. I don't have a problem with derivative works, I have a problem with hugely expensive lack of creativity. Avatar didn't feel creative enough in its plot, characters, writing and even visuals to justify 10 years of sequels in my opinion and I think it will be a huge waste of all the things I've mentioned and I'm just saying that because Cameron is a great director and could be spending his time with something more inspiring. But that's just my opinion of course.

@@darknessnaxxion Avatar is great technically, but everything else is mediocre. Rather have him work on something new

@@NeverSaySandwich1 that’s where you’re wrong, see what makes the story so compelling and the film in general, is the idiosyncrasies that James Cameron puts into the film. Well makes it especially special, is the fact that James Cameron revitalized old-school storytelling in a Bygone era of Hollywood. So when you say he should work on something new, he is. It’s in the same line of Star Wars the force awakens, where, ironically: Cameron dislikes, where are you tell a familiar story and build off it into new ventures. So, Avatar 2 will be something different. I’d take this over any MCU crap anyway.

And they will be released directly on Disney+
