Clip What We Know About 'Avatar 2' So Far. A Guide to the Films of James Cameron. Photos Top cast Edit.
Zoe Saldana Neytiri as Neytiri. Sigourney Weaver Dr. Grace Augustine as Dr. Grace Augustine. Viewers can get lost in the fun adventure of Guardians of the Galaxy. Warcraft follows the story of Anduin Lothar Travis Fimmel , a human general set in a medieval fantasy world.
He is called to defend his kingdom from a race of giant orcs who have magically invaded his land. As Lothar learns more, he discovers treachery on his own side and comes to see that perhaps his enemy is not as different from himself. It is based on a popular video game of the same name.
Please hear me out regarding this movie. I have never played World of Warcraft, and I know I do not need to explain the merits to Warcraft fans. But, for those who would typically disregard this option, this movie is visually stunning and a lot of fun. The special effects are top-notch, just like in Avatar. There are similar themes of how conflict sometimes arises simply because two sides do not understand each other. If you are a skeptic, try Warcraft out.
Titanic is a movie about a forbidden romance on a fateful journey. Unfortunately, Rose outclasses Jack… literally. Rose and Jack carry on in a world that tries to force them to stay in their station. Titanic and Avatar are both directed by James Cameron. Titanic also shares the themes of forbidden romance, and it also showcases a marginalized and exploited group. These themes are also present in Avatar. The Martian at its root is a survival story.
The movie follows the incredible journey of Mark Watney Matt Damon. After an accident where Watney is presumed dead on Mars, his team of fellow astronauts and scientists leave him on the red planet and start the return journey to Earth. Watney is faced with the seemingly impossible task of staying alive by himself on Mars. It is based on the novel of the same name by Andy Weir. The Martian and Avatar both are excellent examples of fantastic storytelling in the science fiction genre.
Both films provide a tremendous cast that is called to do seemingly impossible tasks. Just as Pandora is brought to life in Avatar, The Martian makes viewers feel like they are literally on the red planet. Ridley Scott uses unreal special effects to provide a dash of realism to the space epic.
Mortal Engines is a dystopian movie adapted for film from the same writers of The Hobbit and Lord of the Rings movies. It follows the tale of Hester Shaw Hera Hilmar as she gathers around her a crew to stop the city of London. In this world, cities are mobile, and they roam around like predators devouring everything in their path. At minutes, the film doesn't feel too long. It contains so much. The human stories. The Na'vi stories, for the Na'vi are also developed as individuals.
The complexity of the planet, which harbors a global secret. The ultimate warfare, with Jake joining the resistance against his former comrades. Small graceful details like a floating creature that looks like a cross between a blowing dandelion seed and a drifting jellyfish, and embodies goodness. Or astonishing floating cloud-islands. I've complained that many recent films abandon story telling in their third acts and go for wall-to-wall action.
Cameron essentially does that here, but has invested well in establishing his characters so that it matters what they do in battle and how they do it. There are issues at stake greater than simply which side wins. Cameron promised he'd unveil the next generation of 3-D in "Avatar. Cameron's iteration is the best I've seen -- and more importantly, one of the most carefully-employed. The film never uses 3-D simply because it has it, and doesn't promiscuously violate the fourth wall.
He also seems quite aware of 3-D's weakness for dimming the picture, and even with a film set largely in interiors and a rain forest, there's sufficient light. Good luck in getting a ticket before February. It takes a hell of a lot of nerve for a man to stand up at the Oscarcast and proclaim himself King of the World.
James Cameron just got re-elected. Roger Ebert was the film critic of the Chicago Sun-Times from until his death in In , he won the Pulitzer Prize for distinguished criticism. Rated PG for intense epic battle sequences and warfare, sensuality, language and some smoking. Stephen Lang as Col. All those chase scenes and visuals were custom-made for a movie theater. The difference is that, although people came for the spectacle, "Star Wars" was just as enjoyable at home given its memorable characters, quotable dialogue and thrilling suspense.
The same can't really be said about "Avatar," which isn't really worth renting, given that What did "Avatar" remind people of? And that's exactly how the movie felt - though not necessarily in a good way. It was as if the writer-director cherry-picked items from other stories and threw them into one semi-coherent whole. The characters didn't make much of an impact, nor did they have lasting appeal. When is the last time you saw a blue alien?
It's hard to decide whether the fault lies with the dialogue or the acting, but the interactions between characters also came across as entirely unnatural, especially when star Worthington was stiffly delivering his lines.
His role in such a high-profile blockbuster seemed to seal his fate as the next big A-lister. That understandably never came to bear. He'll have another shot at proving himself, though, because he's scheduled to appear in The three movies have been pushed back multiple times.
Now it seems as if the first will get a Christmas release, which is still a long way off. While Cameron has been working on getting those scripts together, other franchises have sprung up and dimmed our memories of Pandora and the Na'vi.
We've had the Avengers and the Guardians of the Galaxy; we've gotten four installments with Katniss Everdeen and the Hunger Games; three new "Star Wars" movies will have materialized between the last "Avatar" and the next one. With our short attention spans, studios tend to want to get movies out in quick succession, lest the public forget how much they love Iron Man's quips or the charming cinematic destination that is Middle Earth.
People love to say that absence makes the heart grow fonder - and sometimes it does.
