Generation X was 7 years old, at a minimum, when Star Wars was released. You got your generations wrong bro.

I hate this Cameron bashing so much. Show me a 20 minute action sequence in ANY movie in the last 20 years (arguably ever) that is as perfectly timed and minutely detailed as the mental hospital scene in T2? You can't.

Infact i have been thinking of how Kubrick and Cameron have some things in common. 1 - the cold machine like direction in their films. 2 - Perfect timing in terms of directing and editing.

Did you just compare Kubrick and Cameron?

Yea, i don't know why i said that publicly, i know im going to get beatings. Its just something ive been thinking about lately after rewatching Camerons entire filmography.

Like what i mentioned above with the Abyss, its not that much of a stretch. Just because one is a director of "popular entertainment" and the other is a director of "art" films does not mean they have no similarities.



“When we make some new announcement and if there is no positive initial reaction from the market, I try to think of it as a good sign because that can be interpreted as people reacting to something groundbreaking. ...if the employees were always minding themselves to do whatever the market is requiring at any moment, and if they were always focusing on something we can sell right now for the short term, it would be very limiting. We are trying to think outside the box.” - Satoru Iwata - This is why corporate multinationals will never truly understand, or risk doing, what Nintendo does.
