Moderation   @IronJimbo @JamesCameronScholar @ImNotExcited@watcher1232@dudalb   I'm gonna say this once, and this applies to everybody here on both sides: we're not doing this "lol look at all the doubters, Jimbo is amazing" BS anymore. We're not doing this "lol look at these Cameron fanboys. So delusional. Fanboys gonna fanboy" It's not funny, never was funny, and frankly is unnecessary nonsense that clogs up the forums.   We still have eight months to go, and we r

Moderation: Please refrain from baseless commentary on shills and paid, biased critics. The movie is getting very good reviews, that should be good enough for fans to enjoy without engaging in nonsensical fanboy nonsense.

Hello Everyone!   This is just a friendly reminder from your Admin that reviews are subjective, and are not gonna affect your overall enjoyment of the movie.   And if anything is getting too heated for you; I pinned this post! You can come back and just look at the furbabies in my signature for a serotonin high!   Godspeed, folks.

Smart move by James Cameron to release the sequel almost 10 years after the original.

 

Clearly, he is trying to take advantage of the nostalgia factor, very popular these days... :ph34r:

 

improved film tech also!

Cameron is a washed up director who doesn't have the pulse on pop culture anymore as his visionnary buddy Tim Miller & his iconic Deadpool movie that is already redefining the cinematic landscape for the upcoming decade.

 

 

 

Other visionary directors that some called them as redefiners of the cinematic landscape.

 

Wachowski bros. After Matrix opened. Then... LOL!

Shyamalan. After Sixth Sense, Unbreakable, Signs combo. I really like him but he is no longer an A-lister.

David Fincher. After Seven, Fight Club. Arguably, the only one in the list that can be called a redefiner.

Frank Darabont. After The Shawshank redemption/Green Mile came the void.

Michael Mann. A couple of strong efforts during 1990's. Only 1 praised film in 2000's.

Michael Bay. Buried after the first TF.

Tarantino. He clearly redefined cinema.

Renny Harlin, John Woo... Big No!

 

I am sure Tim Miller and Deadpool will be popular for no more than a couple of years.

 

On the other hand, James Cameron has succesfully redefined the cinematic landscape not only one, but 3 times: with T2, Titanic and Avatar. And through 3 different decades.

He was being sarcastic! I like this post though, not once, not twice but thrice?! Revolutionary directory.

Can someone please explain to me when this is coming out? I'm a little tipsy so for some reason this grabbed my attention...

 

Yes, James, I understand you dived and a made a record with a trench in Asia but come on. I watched the movie when I was 16...I never expected I would be fucking 30 to see the sequel. Yes, you have an amazing mind. No, you are not king of the world. But still...hurry up.

Hollywood was really confident with Harlin becoming an A-list director. They gave him huge big tentpoles after Cliffhanger and Die Hard 2.

A shame both Cutthroats Island and The Long Kiss Goodnight bombed. The two are guilty cinematic pleasures.

The Long Kiss Goodnight is great. I still haven't gotten around to watching Cutthroat Island, but I've heard decent things, despite its box office reputation.

Well, he *was* an A-lister. Until he had a couple of bombs, and then he wasn't.
