A Cameron blockbuster with an existing franchise surely struggling to make 1.1 WW...

Is this the forums troll?

 

Might be...

Why so?

[Dementeleus]

No one gets paid here. "Staff" just refers to those who help moderate and administrate the forums.

Disney has bought out Marvel, has bought out George Lucas.

 

And will eventually buy out James Cameron himself.

I know you're semi joking but James Cameron never has submitted to corporate and never will.

[Dementeleus]

He doesn't submit, but he willingly works with them.

Cameron always delays his films. Cameron is a perfectionist. They haven't started filming yet and Cameron will being filming three movies at once.  While he is filming Avatar 3 and 4. Avatar 2 will be in post production. Cameron will want to make sure everything is perfect.

He sold the rights to make a the park to Disney. It wouldn't surprise if Cameron wants his films to be taken care of when he retires.

Only if it's a works in his favor.

 

You know the only reason he directed the Titanic was so he could dive to the wreckage?

You know that he refused to sell The Terminator script when he was homeless at the time, unless he could direct it himself.

 

You know that he took a prop gun into a producers office who wanted to change parts of the films, he put the gun on the table then said "anythings on the table"?

 

This mans insane.

Never underestimate the powah of the dark side (Disney).

I wouldn't call Avatar a film.  I would call it a "3rd person documentary of a possible futuristic universe". 

I also wouldn't call TFA a film.  I would call it a "religious propaganda tool for the agents of the light side". 

I wouldn't call these forums "movie forums". I would call them "learning grounds for future back bencher politicians".

Afaik, he first went to disney, but they didnt want to take the risk.

Okay time to be serious and ignore all trolls. 

 

I believe this will decrease from the original but this will make at least 500M DOM and 2B WW.  The original came in at the right time and surfed on the beginning  of the 3D era.  It's less popular now, but once marketing kicks in and people see the visuals effects, they'll forget that they hate the original and come back to the movie theater to see it. 

 

James Cameron is a great director and knows what drive people to the movies.  After all,  he's James Cameron the greatest pioneer.

Cameron thought Terminator Genesis was brilliant. 

 

I feel that says a lot.

[Elessar]

I welcome all the Iron Jim afficionados to this board! There's never enough!

A desperate phone call from Arnold and a goof paycheck from Paramount surely helped.

Hi Ralph, I'll probably be gone once TFA's run is over and back for SW8 and Avatar 2.

I'm not JamesCameronScholar but I am the IronJim from the thread the other day, I lost the login for that one.

 

 

[Elessar]

I'm afraid that list is more wishful thinking. And sadly, TFA will probably overtake Titanic.

I think $3 billion is definitely on the table for Avatar 2, but there's no way Avatar 3 and 4 are increasing like that with only a year between each of the releases. Maybe if the gap was 5+ years between each sequel. Markets simply cannot expand fast enough to meet that kind of projected box office growth.
