James Cameron: Last News

James Cameron seems to have his head firmly in the “Avatar” clouds, as he plots the future of his sci-fi epic that will likely serve as the culmination of his filmmaking career. However, that doesn’t mean that James Cameron’s past is willing to fade away without a bit of a fight, as two of his most famous works are getting new life… in very different ways.

James Cameron described the production cost of Avatar: The Way Of Water as “very fucking expensive”, telling GQ that the sequel to his 2009 blockbuster – the most successful film of all time – cost so much to make that he told the studio it represented “the worst business case in movie history”.Cameron claimed that, in order for the sequel to simply break even, it would have to become “the third or fourth highest-grossing film in history”.“That’s your threshold,” he said. “That’s your break even.”Despite this, it is not the most expensive film in history.

We’ve said it a million times, but Steven Soderbergh is one of the best innovators working in filmmaking today. No, he doesn’t push technology forward with cutting edge CGI like James Cameron.

And the world has a right to know the truth, always, not the salacious bait crammed down our throats by those seeking their five minutes of fame.
