That the comparisons are hateful is something that James Cameron’s ego does not care at all
When you have three films on the list of the ten highest grossing in the history of cinema, like James Cameron, you have enough authority to give a fairly judicious opinion about the film industry or about the work of fellow professionals. If you also have an ego the size of a skyscraper, the combination makes headlines.
‘Avatar: The Sense of Water‘ has already surpassed films like ‘Spider-Man: No Way Home’ and has established itself in the pulpit of success as it continues its journey through theaters around the world. This has allowed the filmmaker to get involved in the development of the entire franchise. The ‘Avatar’ saga has a third installment with much of its footage already shot, and a fourth and fifth installment plus a television series are in the pipeline.
Cameron is determined to expand his universe by adopting formulas that have already proven successful such as ‘Star Wars‘ or the UCM, both from Disney. And one of the great objectives of the director, as he has commented on many occasions, has been to expand the world of Pandora with new species and creatures, as well as with new aboriginal tribes.
We do not know if in the successive sequels Cameron will decide to explore more worlds in this galaxy or will continue to focus only on Pandora and Earth. But in case he did, he is very clear that he does not want to make the same mistake that George Lucas made with the Star Wars saga.
“It is dangerous to tell a story with many characters because it may lack focus. But I accepted that challenge. There is this epic landscape with epic narratives. I was trying to emulate a “Star Wars” or “Lord of the Rings” universe. Something that is a persistent world that people can come back to and enjoy over time.”
Cameron thinks George Lucas didn’t do it right
James Cameron He thinks that Lucas limited himself a lot when it came to creating the planets. In other words, the creator of this galaxy far, far away did not know how to take advantage of the worlds he imagined by not providing them with variety. And so the director comments in an interview for Variety.
“If you look at how George did it in the universe that he created, which is amazing, he chose to make every different biome, every different culture, have their own planet around the galaxy. And I thought, “Well, the Earth doesn’t work like that.” The Earth has the Arctic, the Antarctic, the rain forest, the desert and the mountains»
“All biomes are different. And doing my research on indigenous culture, you would see such an explosion of ideas and costumes and belief systems, and I thought, “Man, I can make all the movies I want just on Pandora, going to different places.”
