Cameron has saved the theater business, well for me anyway. My home theater produces an image far superior to most local theaters. Since I built it I have gone to less than one movie per year. But if 3D can deliver something I can not get at home, I am there. It will take years to get 3D adopted in the home. Americans are painfully slow at adopting new technology. It has been over 10 years to get America to buy into HD tv! The majority of the public still does not understand why Bluray is better than DVD! First you have to convince them to get an HD display, Hd programming, then Bluray then 3d? Sounds like a LOOOONG road to me. Wake up people, we are living in the most marvelous time for home entertainment. Get the best you can afford!

Avatar was fantastic on a few levels and is worth seeing by every human alive on the earth. What CGI is still terrible at is when human forms jump. The act of jumping looks terrible in CGI and continues to look awful even in Avatar. I am unsure what the technical issue is with jumping and why it look so cartoon like.

I think we can expect some cool stuff with a great story, he is one of the rare directors who hasn’t fallen into pop corn crap or overdone oscar nominee publicity.

A great man who’s very passionate about his craft and substance there is in his films.
