I, also, think that I'm the only one that didn't see Titanic.
Ive never seen it either.
And I dont expect to have 3 hours to waste any time soon.
I don’t want to see another avatar James I wish I could get my money back from seeing the first one but a superhero movie like carnage Spider-Man I’m all in
If you want pure comedy Jus's watch the 2nd half of the movie when shit hits the fan... The chaos, the deaths, the pyscho boyfriend trying to kill them while they dodge water pure comedyI, also, think that I'm the only one that didn't see Titanic.
truth be told
THAT is the true masterwoork
that is EXCELLENT film making at EVERY turn effects acting sound editing
damn near perfect
used to use it to TEST the quality of flat screens back in the day
there is a 2 DVD version
I laughed cause the back of the FIRST DVD all these years later was flawless
the 2nd one?
scratched to hell
I saw it the first night it came out. However, that and the hair locking scene is the only thing I remember about the movie.
I remember the screenplay being nominated for an Oscar, and I remember thinking that was a joke. And visually, the movie wasn’t all that nice either.
The movie sucked.
Correction: the movie was nominated for Best Picture.
Damn....I, also, think that I'm the only one that didn't see Titanic.
IMO, you didn't miss shit but some film snobs might feel otherwise. I saw it when I was a kid......remember seeing titties when she laid up there on that couch.
Only thing that matter in that movie was the colonel
Dude should've been cable hands down
I bought the DVD and was never pressed to watch it
Here he goes
Does it not?
Danny would've wrapped that shit up in 15 minutes.
Would've been a cookout by the tree of life for the rest of the 2 hours
Titanic was grand that's what he does
He makes grand movies
Celene Dion made Titanic with her song
The only change in his heart was it went from beeping to not beeping once it got two poison arrows shot in it
This is Infinity week. I can’t be bothered with watching subpar films at the moment.
I watched both Avengers Friday night. I watched a little Dr. Strange last night. Tonight feels like a Guardians of the Galaxy night.
Peace,
Avatar is literally the most overrated movie of all time.
Shitty, overblown CGI, another cac-invades-an-indigenous-culture-then-saves-it story line, one dimensional acting, and the most hackneyed, paint-by-numbers script written in the last 20/30 years.

I can understand that viewpoint
I watched it once and then I was like I can't do it again.
Too much stupid shit
Too much band keep playing too much we'll sit here and have a whisky and drown type shit
Don't forget the fact that his own movies deal with heroes saving the world they're on.
I think the hatred for Matrix Revolutions is the most overrated thing on the internet. The movie wasn’t bad.
Peace,
Exactly.
Cameron is just bitter and envious that he’s no longer at the helm of movie franchises that everyone wants to see.
And the arrogance that he’s displaying by trying to dictate what moviegoers enjoy can only (ironically) be described as superhuman.

Sometimes the consensus is correct. The only Matrix that’s worth a damn is the first one.
Agrees

Cac just bein cac
Man deep water horizon was way better lol

he basically compared Wonder Woman to Sarah Conner or Ripley
I had a conversation with you the other day. You are consistent.

Legendary director James Cameron has made some eye raising statements about DC’s smash hit film Wonder Woman, suggesting the film is not the progressive, feminist triumph it’s been widely hailed as, but actually objectifies women.
Cameron is a Hollywood heavyweight, having directed some of the biggest hits of all time, like Titanic and Avatar. He’s also no stranger to strong female leads: he helped to solidify the legendary status of Sigourney Weaver’s Ellen Ripley in the science fiction horror sequel Aliens, and the transformation of Linda Carter’s Sarah Connor from a meek damsel in distress in The Terminator to the battle hardened, world-weary hero of Terminator 2: Judgment Day is perhaps his greatest storytelling achievement.
Yet Cameron was decidedly unimpressed by Diana of Themyscira. In an interview with The Guardian promoting an upcoming 3D rerelease of Terminator 2: Judgment Day, Cameron was highly dismissive of Wonder Woman’s feminist bona fides, suggesting the film objectified her and didn’t equal the nuance of a character like Sarah Connor.
“All of the self-congratulatory back-patting Hollywood’s been doing over Wonder Woman has been so misguided.
She’s an objectified icon, and it’s just male Hollywood doing the same old thing!
I’m not saying I didn’t like the movie but, to me, it’s a step backwards.
Sarah Connor was not a beauty icon. She was strong, she was troubled, she was a terrible mother, and she earned the respect of the audience through pure grit. And to me, [the benefit of characters like Sarah] is so obvious. I mean, half the audience is female!”

This is a pretty bizarre line of reasoning from Cameron. The director seems to be suggesting female characters are only worthwhile when they’re fundamentally damaged people, which is not exactly a positive feminist worldview. Also, the claims of Wonder Womanfeaturing a lot of female objectification seem to suggest Cameron was not paying especially close attention while watching the film. While Wonder Woman has absolutely been an object of sexist objectification over the years, Patty Jenkins’ film went out of its way to avoid such pitfalls, and was met with near universal acclaim for its nuanced, earnest portrayal of DC’s flagship heroine.
The whole thing is decidedly tone deaf from a director who, in recent years, has become known as much for his temper and unusual opinions as he is for his films, with his long promised cadre of Avatar sequels spending years in development (though they might finally be coming soon). Cameron’s comments don’t really take anything away from Wonder Woman’s success, but they’re still a disappointment coming from a man who has shaped some of the most enduring female characters in film history.
I hear you...
and I GOT his point
but that man said that sh*t totally wrong and genuinely didn't give a f*ck.
but then of COURSE
he backpedaled which made all that sh*t even worse
do not say ALL that and then try to hide your hands afterward
when did he backpedal?
you know I wouldn't sprout no bullshit cuz.
i was listening to fatman on batman and they mentioned it. But now reading the WHOLE thing...he kinda still said f*ck ya'll...
"Look, it was probably a little bit of a simplistic remark on my part, and I’m not walking it back, but I will add a little detail to it, which is: I like the fact that, sexually, she [Wonder Woman] had the upper hand with the male character, which I thought was fun.” Cameron also described Wonder Woman as a “good film”.
