I love how it just keeps getting more and more pathetic. At this point I expect to see the headline "How being a literal cuck impacted my writing and directing of Avatar: The Way of Water - By James Cameron."

James Cameron used plenty of gun violence to sell his movie.

A lefty must have called him out on it, so his response, as you see here, is: "well, it had a lot MORE gun violence in it before, but I cut it down because I'm a good leftists who hates guns":

“I actually cut about 10 minutes of the movie targeting gunplay action. I wanted to get rid of some of the ugliness, to find a balance between light and dark. You have to have conflict, of course. Violence and action are the same thing, depending on how you look at it. This is the dilemma of every action filmmaker, and I’m known as an action filmmaker.”

It's like a porn director saying he cut one of the 3 bukkakke scenes because he cares so much about respecting women. lol.

Yet, starting with the latest Terminator film with a child being shot to death wasn't an issue...

They have 3 or 4 more Avatar movies planned currently. This trajectory doesn't seem sustainable.

They fucked-up really bad with the second writing and execution. The "meh" scenario could have gotten itself out of the way of a popcorn scenic experience if rewritten by anyone who isn't terminally woke.

But people are still going because the first one was scenic p0rn and it was a while ago, so let's go see the very pretty pictures again.

This isn't going to draw nearly as many people for a third. At that point, rewatch the first.

There is a way to salvage the collossal sums of money put to this visual art tech, and it's to totally rework a Pandora franchise in that stellar system, written by non-wokies.

Humans fleeing Earth as the Sun's expansion is turning the Blue Planet into a dustball. A few colonial stations orbiting somewhere in the stellar system where the Pandora moon is. Attempts at setting foot on surface is met with hostile lifeforms influenced/controled by conscious networks of biomass sprawling across a continent each. DNA similarities across samples taken from the 4 life-compatible moons and planets of the stellar system are too similar to have evolved independently.

There is a market for "based" adventures in a galaxy far-far away now that Starwars was dragged behind the Tatoine shed and shot by Disney.

Cameron is a fucking loser, a hack and has no directing or writing skills

It would be nice to know if all 10 minutes were filler that was gonna be cut anyways. Some of the characters are lacking any depth or development, and there were many missed opportunities for any kind of social nuance.

Does anyone more familiar with Hollywood accounting know if this movie is breaking even or a loss?

Crazy that marketing can be 3-4x of already bloated production budgets. Even if Hollywood contracted or collapsed under these market conditions, they've already conditioned audiences to consume utter shite.

I actually doubt they have anything on him it's just constant exposure to leftist ideology inside the bubble.

Just swap their ideology with radiation, LA and California in general are the Elephants foot in terms of radiation so of course his mind is goo after that long of an exposure.

"Elephant's foot?" That's a new one on me.

Urban Dictionary didn't help either.

It's a big once-molten blob of reactor core and casing that melted right through the floor and into the basement of Chernobyl. Not actually the most radioactive thing in the world, but still pretty fucking lethal for what amounts to decades-old debris.
