James Cameron Says AVATAR Trolls "Just Shut The F*** Up" After They Watch the Film Again
There are a lot of moviegoers out there that continue to troll Avatar and the upcoming sequel Avatar: The Way of Water. Regardless of its $2.8 billion dollar box office draw, its nine Oscar nominations and three wins, people still like to bash the franchise. Well, director James Cameron has some words for these Avatar trolls.
During a recent interview with Empire, Cameron said, “The trolls will have it that nobody gives a shit and they can’t remember the characters’ names or one damn thing that happened in the movie. Then they see the movie again and go, ‘Oh, okay, excuse me, let me just shut the fuck up right now.’ So I’m not worried about that.”
So, if you are one of those people that continue to rip on Avatar, all you have to do is watch the movie again and you’ll see the light, and realize how amazing it is! Cameron’s outlook on this is so funny to me.
I liked Avatar, and the sequel looks like another beautifully made film. It’s just hard to tell what the market is like for more Avatar right now after all these years.
The sequel is set more than a decade after the events of the first film. It “begins to tell the story of the Sully family (Jake, Neytiri, and their kids), the trouble that follows them, the lengths they go to keep each other safe, the battles they fight to stay alive, and the tragedies they endure.
The movie also stars Zoe Saldana, Sam Worthington, Sigourney Weaver, Stephen Lang, Cliff Curtis, Joel David Moore, CCH Pounder, Edie Falco, Jemaine Clement, and Kate Winslet.
Avatar: The Way of Water opens in theaters on December 15th.
