To criticize him you have to meet an important criterion.
James Cameron has only a few works in his filmography – fewer than most successful Hollywood filmmakers – but each of them has become legendary.
The director’s name is strongly associated with financial data and public adulation, which, however, did not diminish his irritation with unsolicited criticism.
So you understand that even 25 years after the release of Titanic, he was not too lazy, with the help of a hired team, to prove that Jack would have drowned at the end of the story anyway: with or without the door.
Not surprisingly, Cameron responded quite harshly to complaints about the “cringe” dialogue in “Terminator.”
In an interview with Empire to mark the 40th anniversary of the science fiction franchise, he said:
“You know what? Let’s look at three of your four highest-grossing films and then talk about the effectiveness of dialogue.”
Those who couldn’t keep complaints about the timing of his films to themselves also got the three-hour “Avatar,” for example.
No matter how hard the executives at 20th Century Fox studio tried to convince the director to cut the duration, he stuck to his guns – three hours and not a minute less:
“You can just get up and go to the toilet.”
He also advised all the ‘internet trolls’ to come to terms with the fact that no one cares about their whining.
“Then they watch the movie again and say, ‘Oh, okay, let me just shut up for a second.’ So I’m not worried about it,” Cameron concluded.
