He has one of my favorite filmographies.

Yes, it's my most anticipated.

See, I'm jaded. I look at Cameron, and I see the same ego issues as Speilberg; they cloud the storytelling and ruin the attempts, IMO. - Beryllium Dec 2, 11:25 1
- It was awful. Almost unwatchable. - Cuzzin Todd Dec 2, 11:36
But he also made Strange Days. -- nm - Spawn Dec 2, 11:24 10
- bzzzt. wrong. He wrote it. but did not direct it. -- nm - Remlik Dec 2, 11:31 4
  - it's james cameron. Even if there was a regular director attached, I'm sure he had some involvement. :) -- nm - Beryllium Dec 2, 11:32 3
    - I'd agree with that. But wasn't that Kathryn Bigelow who directed that? she doesn't take much crap. -- nm - Remlik Dec 2, 11:34 1
      - I wonder if there was a behind the scenes documentary shot during filming? :) -- nm - Beryllium Dec 2, 11:36
    - More likely, if he wasn't director that left more room for clueless studio execs to louse up the production -- nm - con_carne Dec 2, 11:34
- That might be the least favorite of his for me and I'll gladly stack it next ot Aliens, Abyss, Terminator, T2 and Titanic. - Will Hunting Dec 2, 11:28
- I'm confused - why are you continuing to list positives? -- nm - Reagen Dec 2, 11:26
- Wait a minute...is that the Ralph Fiennes/Angela Bassett flick? - Jim Dec 2, 11:25 2
  - yes - produced & cowrote the screenplay -- nm - Roger More Dec 2, 11:28
  - Ugh. It was okay while I was watching it, but then I was like, WTF? -- nm - Spawn Dec 2, 11:28
