12 years after Titanic James Cameron is betting he can change forever the way you watch movies
Photo: Art StreiberIn 1977, a 22-year-old truck driver named James Cameron went to see Star Wars with a pal. His friend enjoyed the movie; Cameron walked out of the theater ready to punch something. He was a college dropout and spent his days delivering school lunches in Southern California’s Orange County. But in his free time, he painted tiny models and wrote science fiction — stories set in galaxies far, far away. Now he was facing a deflating reality: He had been daydreaming about the kind of world that Lucas had just brought to life. Star Wars was the film he should have made.
In the December issue of Wired Magazine, Joshua Davis interviews the legendary James Cameron about his new epic. It's a fascinating article about what happened in the 10 years since his last epic, and how Avatar's concept started 30 years ago as a film to compete with Star Wars.
