Duh! He invented 'Bullet Time' and was blacklisted in Hollywood for making fun of William Randolph Hearst. Sheesh!

I have been waiting for Cameron to make another movie for years. I hope Avatar can live up to everyones expectations. I also enjoyed seeing him on Entourage. As for movies i think T2 is his masterpiece and i always forget how good this movie is. I would love for a better Blu Ray to come out. I do think all of his movies are great though and when is True Lies going to come out on Blu Ray.

James Cameron has a great eye for direction but script writing he is atrocious, take Titanc for example..terrible scripting but amazing film

IMO..he is the ultimate BIG Budget director...a textbook definition..if I was a studio head and was dropping $200+ mil on a film he's the first guy I would call..his films ALWAYS show where the $$$ is going and thats on screen.
Michael Bay can't hold JC's jock

I would also say Speilberg is right there in terms of a BIG budget directing but he can also switch gears and do something a little more modest in terms of production..Cameron is BIG budget 24/7/365
