We all know that
James Cameron is a master when it comes to making sequels. His films like
Terminator 2,
Avatar 2 and
Aliens are extremely good examples of how to make a sequel right. Unlike
Steven Spielberg that avoids sequels. Steven avoided doing the second
Jaws movie. James Cameron goes for it and wins. Speaking of Steven Spielberg's
Jaws, not only sequels from that film were produced. Rip-offs, like the 1978
Piranha by
Joe Dante also were produced. Those were parody material B-movie exploitation films. And so writer / director James Cameron decided to take the project of making a sequel to that
Jaws rip-off, with his 1982
Piranha II: The Spawning.

1994 film
True Lies feels like watching a
James Cameron directed
Michael Bay movie. It has explosions, check, it has outlandish set pieces, check, it has beautiful shots of the military, check, it has sexy ladies, check, it has teenagers with an attitude, check. It is a Michael Bay movie through and through. Yet it is a James Cameron movie, so what happened?

Is Strange Days 1995 about James Cameron's personal life?

So in 1989
James Cameron divorces his second wife, the film producer
Gale Anne Hurd, opening for her an ability to marry
Brian De Palma that just divorced
Nancy Allen. The same year Cameron marries
Kathryn Bigelow ( the director of 1995
Strange Days ). They make the 1991
Point Break kind of together. But then that same year in 1991 they divorce. Yet, his script
Strange Days about strange love dynamics and stuff ends up being actually made by Bigelow in 1995 ( four years after their divorce ). Hm...

Avatar: Fire and Ash adds a new villain to the Avatar universe, in a form of Varang (
Oona Chaplin, a grand-daughter of
Charlie Chaplin ), an evil Na'vi lady with a tribe of fire-hungry psychopaths, traumatized by the shier insanity of human destruction. As she says in the film, when she was little she witnessed a huge fire ( probably caused by human machines ) that destroyed a lot of the forest. There was no Eywa to save them, or provide for them, so she turned to the "dark side", so to speak. So how the writer and director
James Cameron show that she is evil? Well, she rapes people.

I was frankly scared to re-experience the original James Cameron picture
Avatar after knowing for certain that it is much worse, technically speaking, in comparison to the second film in the franchise. Yet I was confident that the film at the very least should be good. So I took my worries aside and watched it again. Does it hold up? Well let's talk about it.

Blue Steel 1990 is the seed that grew into the reason Avatar didn't win best picture

So it's 1990 and
Kathryn Bigelow writes and directs an action thriller about a police officer. The police officer is female and the movie almost refuses to sexualize her. Bigelow casts a nice half-Jewish girl
Jamie Lee Curtis. And pretty much the whole movie, not a single shot of her emphasizes or admires her body ( apart from one sex scene where we see a very erotic closeup of her stomach ). Making that movie technically feminist. Few years later, in 1994, as
James Cameron ( who was married to Bigelow between 1989 and 1991 ) is trying to find the actor to play the wife in his film
True Lies. He is reminded of
Blue Steel by Bigelow. And decides to cast Jamie Lee Curtis in his film. Giving us that very strange, almost pornographic scene where she does a very erotic strip-tease scene with
Arnold Schwarzenegger. More than a decade later, in 2009, both Bigelow and Cameron make a movie. And both of those movies are nominated for the best picture. Yet Bigelow takes home the price. Did Cameron lose due to his pussy curse?

So Did Avatar 3 Use AI?

While
James Cameron has
denied that
Avatar 3: Fire and Ash used any generative AI. On January 24, 2026
Joe Letteri ( the visual effect supervisor from Weta Digital ) sat with the
Corridor Crew for their weekly show of
VFX Artists React where
he said that the facial animation for the hero characters for both
Avatar 2 and
3 involved a
neural network. A
neural network? Isn't that a fancy way to say "AI"?

The movie is nothing like I've seen. It's a masterpiece of cinema. The so called
critics are critical of it, citing similarities to
James Cameron Titanic. They're right, but it is a dead serious film and by no one other than by
Michael Bay. For the director, it a grueling experience to conduct. It's a good watch, it'll make you
cry your eyes out.

In
James Cameron's
Avatar humans are attacking the forests of Pandora, bulldozing and killing indigenous population of the planet, to get to the natural resources their tribes are sitting at. The military is literally playing a role of guards, for the bulldozers, because the indigenous have become sort of very upset with humans, that terrorize their land. This is sort the plot of
Eli Roth's horror film
The Green Inferno, just Roth makes it way way more viscerally.

I have a soft spot for
J. J. Abrams. His masterpiece
Super 8 inspired me greatly to develop film-projects when I was a teenager. But his 2009 other masterpiece
Star Trek ( together with 2009'th other Sci-Fi masterpiece
Avatar by
James Cameron ) is what pretty much started my obsession with space movies.

How The Fabelmans Traumatized Me

I remember sitting at the entrance to a local cinema near me, shivering from a new kind of depression. I was waiting to enter the screening of
Avatar: The Way Of Water, which was released in cinema just after
The Fabelmans. The previous film I have seen in that very cinema, maybe already a week before that, was
The Fabelmans and that dreadful feeling I had was caused by that movie. I was committing an act of masochism going back to cinema right after the trauma I experienced, and I was pretty sure Avatar 2 would only make it worse. I didn't care. I went anyway. Thank god that
James Cameron decided to limit references to himself to a few nods to Titanic and stuff, and instead made a movie that is pretty much designed as a joyride. I don't know if I was alive today if Avatar 2 was anything like
The Fabelmans.

Before
Jerry Bruckheimer was obsessed with telling all his directors to be like
Michael Bay and before
Don Simpson had passed away. The duo of Simpson and Bruckheimer were obsessed with
Tony Scott, the director of such classics as
Top Gun,
Days of Thunder and
Enemy of the State ( which coincidentally were all produced by Jerry and Don, apart from the last film, which was produced after Don's passing ). But Tony Scott didn't only work with the duo. For example in 1993 he made a film not produced by Jerry and Don called
True Romance from a screenplay of
Quentin Tarantino. Which makes
Crimson Tide the second collaboration of the two

Examples of films "Corrupting the audience"

Quentin Tarantino stated that a quality of a film is measured in how well it corrupts the audience, showing as an example the 1971
Don Siegel film
Dirty Harry where the main character ( a cop ) is trying to catch a psychopathic serial killer, which leads him into breaking the rules, because of the nature of the threat. He basically throws the civil liberties out of the window to catch the motherfucker, because otherwise the motherfucker is uncatchable. Which makes the audience for a moment, share that idea, and have
a reason all of a sudden to not give basic human rights to bad people. Some people called this movie a "Nazi Propaganda Piece" but it is undeniable, the movie succeeded at corrupting its audience and therefore it is a picture of a great quality.

People change. People change! People grow. People adopt. People change their minds about things. People learn new things everyday. People form opinions. People change. And so have I. I notice something rather strange about people that come into contact with me without prior knowledge of what I do and how I think. I remember the other day on mastodon being bombarded with hate for seemingly no reason what so ever. I either said something good about Richard Stallman, or said something slightly too vague about one thing or another. I know I held opinions that I'm not proud of today. I know I probably have opinions right now that I will change in the future. People change.
Therefor I decided that it would be a good idea, both for the sake of my mental health and just as an example of said change, to talk to you about myself. To psycho-sexually analyze what I stand for. What I believe in. And most importantly: how I got to this point. How I changed to be where I am today. Yet, in a strange kind of way I am slightly afraid of strangers when it comes to my psychology. It is my private life, after all. And I don't want to reveal everybody everything about me. The good, the bad and the ugly. And then the ugly, the bad and the good. I don't want to give haters the platform to hate. So I suppose this is the perfect excuse to use the
fediverse gimmick I came up with, the other day. Basically you have to be at least somewhat of a fan of me and / or my work, in order for me to feel okay with sharing with you all this private, highly emotional, stuff. Don't worry about it. If you are a fan, this is going to be a piece of cake for you. The website will just check that you are, and everything is going to be okay. For everybody else, perhaps, this article isn't for you.
