How many years has it been since James Cameron went from Titanic to Avatar?

He once led his friends to make a trebuchet, which was small enough to leave a crater on the ground, and a mouse was sent to niagara river by a homemade submarine. In art, he studied painting with his mother for many years, once held exhibitions in his hometown, and began to write science fiction when he was very young. He was written at the age of 12 and is regarded as the story prototype of his sci-fi movie Abyss. 14 years, when he saw Lord stanley kubrick's old "200 1 A Space Odyssey". Cameron was shocked at that time. He watched 10 times in a row, and his desire to make movies sprouted from his heart. He started shooting some simple videos with his father's 8 mm camera.

After graduating from high school, James Cameron was admitted to the physics department of a university. He soon became disappointed with the university courses and ran out of the campus to explore the society. He used to be a mechanic, driving other people's cars and big trucks. From 65438 to 0977, James Cameron watched george lucas's classic sci-fi movie Star Wars, and he was excited to realize that this was what he wanted to create. This allowed James Cameron to establish his own direction in life and began to be busy with it. He has never received professional training. He began to look for opportunities to become a filmmaker, became familiar with all kinds of filming equipment from lens to camera guide rail, and even developed the first lens with friends. All the equipment you need is in your hand, and made a life plan for a self-made model of a 10 minute sci-fi movie!

From 65438 to 0989, the Abyss, the third heavyweight work written and directed by James Cameron, came out. This sci-fi film is somewhat different from other similar works by Cameron. Although interspersed with many thrilling battles and mysterious descriptions of underwater creatures, it is still a slow-paced focus, a story about marriage under the background of science fiction. Many viewers think this movie is too slow and sleepy, which makes it better than other Cameron movies. But there are also many fans who are moved by the emotions of the characters in the film. When writing the script of Abyss, Cameroonians are experiencing an emotional crisis with their second wife, producer Gale Anne Hurd, and naturally integrate their own experiences into the creation. The emotional entanglement between the hero and heroine is touching.

After Terminator 2, James Cameron set up his own production company "Digital Field" to compete with Lucas' industrial light and magic at 1993. 1994 released Digital Domain, the first special effects film True Lies. This film attempts to spy on the success potential of humorous action star Arnold Schwarzenegger through the organic combination of thriller and comedy plot, but it is still the most impressive ending. The "Harrier" in the VTOL plane and the "Mavericks" missile it launched hit the bridge were both spectacular and beautiful, but there were also realistic military exercises in the sea and sky background. And the tail presents a complicated and exaggerated cartoon style. As a director, James Cameron chose this unique weapon, which can bring the "important role" and charm of the film to the extreme, once again proving his special interest and feelings for the beauty of machines. On the other hand, compared with most movies, they depict a ruthless killing machine. In the traditional sense, they are described as "kindness" in True Lies, which once again shows that Cameron Long's spirit is somewhat optimistic.
