Not surprisingly, Messianic monster-brain James Cameron has devoured audiences worldwide with his technically astounding (and apparently far less important, horrendously written) film Avatar. In less than a month, he’s banked a few kilometric tons of money at the box office; already rivaling some other flick he made called Titanic. I’m sure Cameron saw this coming, [...]

James Cameron’s latest epic, Avatar, was screened in London recently and early reviews have leaked online, generating positive buzz for the much-hyped film.
The movie is, as of this posting, at 94% on Rotten Tomatoes, with the only negative review at the moment from the Guardian, which called it “baggy, longwinded and, for all the light-speed [...]
