Can Avatar be called the pinnacle of Cameron's directing?

Let's start with the conclusion: no.

As far as artistic achievements are concerned, Avatar is far inferior to Titanic.

In the 1998 Oscar, Titanic * * was nominated by 14-and finally won the 1 1 award, which tied the record of the classic Xu Ben in film history.

At the Oscar ceremony that year, Avatar won only nine nominations and three awards.

Therefore, in the hearts of the audience, it is clear who is more important in the two films.

In terms of commercial achievements, the global box office of Titanic exceeded $65,438+800 million, which was actually 1.997. It is impossible to ignore inflation-this record has been maintained for more than ten years until it was broken by Avatar.

Of course, this does not mean that Avatar is not a classic, but it is also the work of James Cameron, which is slightly inferior.

Avatar is also very groundbreaking (like Titanic).

The first is the exploration of 3D camera with stereoscopic reality. In order to shoot Avatar, James Cameron's team specially developed a shooting system.

The second is the interactive preview system when shooting, which was specially developed by Cameron. When the actors perform, they can see "Lannamei".

Thirdly, it is also the cooperative action capture of the camera during shooting, which makes the CG picture more realistic. This technology is currently used in many CG live-action movies, pioneered by Cameron.

Avatar is a pioneer in the photography industry-but I think it is very biased to regard it as Cameron's masterpiece on this basis. James Cameron, in particular, is still writing, and no one can say whether his next masterpiece will be more popular all over the world.
