Empire got an interview(s?) with James Cameron for the film, which are scattered about in a disparate state right now because their upcoming issue is only gonna be about this film and will have a lot of exclusives and the like, so, publicity.
But for now and still, some important tidbits
- The film is 3 hours long (which he's rather aggressive about, which… I don't really get, that's just A Thing that's starting to come back with films anyways, Avengers ans The Batman being most immediately to mind, but eh)
- He doesn't give a single fuck for people who think Avatar didn't have an impact (which I think we can agree is an argument we'll just let sit there like a dog, because the entire page above feels a decent enough to and fro on that)
- He's thinking he might have someone else direct Avatar 4 and 5, since he's been wanting to work on other projects and those films will be very big and involved. Robert Rodriguez was floated in the article due to Alita: Battle Angel, but that's more explaining that this has happened before then confirmation of "he's gonna be making an Avatar film"
I love how peeved Cameron comes off in this interview. It's just nice to have some flavor to these sorts of interviews rather than the bland banalities that usually accompany movie promotion.
I know this is a joke but honestly, I sincerely hope every single one of these movies takes its concepts and just goes as ham as possible with them. Gimme a musical/culture war story about undead musician-furries in a battle for the soul of an alien world.
Total insanity would be a nice break from the more focus-tested blockbusters we've gotten used to.
