James Cameron ‘Avatar: The Way of Water’ Interview

[@JohnDAlves]

Man... I could listen to Jim Cameron talk about movies all day.

[@Mrfoodiesubash]

Same here😘

[@julianmx13]

I could listen James Cameron talk about James Cameron all day

[@freestyla85]

If you like this sort of thing, he made a series of masterclass lectures

[@Liapjr]

I can do this all day.

[@crystinamarie1]

And to think he used to be a truck driver who taught himself about film by reading disertations from USC while he lived in LA. He's fantastic.

[@naribyul]

I love James’ positive intentions with his movies. I’m a sucker for any movie with an impactful and meaningful message and his response on his decision to include children in this sequel to show not only the parental struggles but the childrens’/teens’ struggles (like w the pandemic irl) makes it super relatable and important (also being a teacher, I love anything w kids in it)

[@crystinamarie1]

This movie had me in tears 😭 it was absolutely beautiful, the underwater scenes were amazing. I would recommend seeing this in IMAX and 3D.

[@williamoverton7775]

I think putting children in it was pure genius, that really was what the first one was missing. I was watching the first one and asking myself why they were all adults in the group picture.

[@ethanholgate2512]

I agree putting kids in this movie will definitely attract younger audiences I feel kids connect to kids in stories just look at stranger things hopefully people will feel the same for Avatar I believe they will

[@slothsarecool]

What’s genius about that? 😅

[@lola-to9om]

there was children in first one they been killed of did you miss that?

[@StephenAlanChandler]

@Jimbo Jimbo lmao most kids irl are annoying for the most part due to attention disorders, lack of experience etc…

[@tamie341]

Same concept that the new DUNE series is taking, bringing in a new generation. Also lets the series age with them

[@guileniam]

[@miguelfmyers]

James Cameron interviews for avatar the way of water have been awesome. Most directors never even ask the interviewer questions, makes the interview a dynamic instead of just him answering questions. Can’t wait for this film on Thursday, imax 3D !!

He gives me Steve jobs vibe when he’s talking about his passion in film making.

Just seen this movie half an hour ago! What a trip! It's an absolute epic! Last 50 minutes are crazy! The action, the emotions and everything just worked . 9/10 (I just had little issues with the film especially with one character who motives I did not fully understand) but overall the film is great, definitely go see it in the cinema and if you can choose the 3D screening.

[@Balnazzardi]

@@BabaV2000 As Simone said, Dark Fate wasnt his movie....yes he was involved, but he didnt direct it or was in any way the "leading" force behind the movie....If you were to bet against any of the movie's he himself is 100% directly responsible, you would fail, each and every time....people betted against original Avatar, well look who had the last laugh? And people said for so many years that Avatar 2 would be completely irrelevant, no one would be interested about it since everyone had already forgot about the first movie and look what happened again? There the movie sits 1,4 billion now and even if it doesnt reach the numbers original Avatar made, its most likely is gonna make over 2 billion eventually and be among top 5 highest grossing movies ever (not adjusted for inflation) So whenever ppl have doubted Cameron in these past 25 years or so after Titanic, they have always been proven wrong. When he is in complete charge of the movie, its box office hit.

[@jedijones]

@@charoleawood I heard him say at the premiere he was going to start talking to Robert about it. But by no means did he say the movie was greenlit. If Avatar 2 is as big as the first though, that gives them massive leverage for Alita 2. Especially if they can convince Disney it will provide effects research for Avatar 4 and 5.

[@charoleawood]

@@jedijones Correct, he did not say it was greenlit, but the fact that he spoke about Alita without being prompted I take as a very good sign indeed. Usually these kinds of conversations are kept very private, Landau deliberately spilled.

Return of the King

[@dinoschachten]

5:15 this looks like they rendered certain foreground elements separately, and in 16:9, or at a wider field of view than eventually used. I love how a production this size deals with things like artificially letterboxing and messing up some of the footage released. I'm sure for the cinema cut they deliver the correct aspect ratio, not letterbox it, as you want to utilise the size of the 21:9 screens appropriately. But still, that was a fun nugget in here :D Also love the lead with love mentality! So much!

[@erinburke9711]

They probably did that on purpose to enhance the 3D effect.

[@OliverHollingdale]

It was just for the 3D promo... Do not worry

I'ver seen The Way of Water three times now (2D) and I love it. It's not as _immediate_ as the first one and takes it's time to set everything up. But critics bash the run time - then praise Denis Villeneuve for making Blade Runner 2049 three hours ( also a great film and film maker ). Critics are SO snooty about Avatar it's ridiculous.

[@amanofnoreputation2164]

[Nobody will see a movie because it's in 3D.] This has always been the mistake and why things that should be advances to a medium become gimmicks. Nintendo didn't advance their hardware to produce some of the first 3D videogames like _Mario64_ or _Ocarina of Time_ and then sit on their laurels for the games themselves both of those titles would still have been made to the same standard if they'd been in 2D. And sure enough, just as there are lots of lazy 3D movies trying to cash in on the technology without respecting it or the medium there were many lazy games in those early days that were just existing properties "in 3D." They weren't. They were 3D games with some intellectual property rights thinly veiled over them making for just a hollow experience.
