James Cameron Week:Day 4

This week we take a look at the one and only James Cameron.

Or Big Jim as we like to call him.

He definitively is the Babe Ruth of Hollywood, hitting nothing but home runs. 

With Avatar: The Way of Water hitting theaters on the 16th it gives us the perfect time to reflect on his work. 

Specifically, we wanted to take a look at his action set pieces because there might not be anyone better at making big thing go boom.

At this point, it feels obnoxious to talk about the success of Titanic, but when covering Cameron it’s kind of hard not to talk in cliches, the main created one of the biggest franchises of all time Terminator made one of the greatest sequels in Hollywood history with Aliens and directed the highest grossing film of all time TWICE!

It should also be noted that this movie was far from a sure thing when it came out. Sure he had made Terminator but who would want to see the guy who just came off of “True Lies” direct a historical romance drama about a boat and on top of that the movie was over budget and behind schedule?

Cameron even forked over his payday to get this movie made the way he wanted it. Cameron bet on himself and boy did it pay off.

Never count James out, cause just when you think he’s lost… He’ll sink your battleship.
