just a question of perspective...

James Cameron has prove on thing for me: he is not a film maker, he is an engineer, a technician. Why? Because there is no film to make.
He is a guy that hires artists from everywhere in the planet and, smartly, takes advantage of it. He can afford it. He can make up any world in his mind and then tell everyone that is he new "project of my life" - he said exactly the same thing with Titanic.
He hires not only the best visual artists but the VFX people to put his idea on screen. Genius. Who need a good script when you have so much to worry about? Me. I need a good script because I grew up watching films like Vertigo, Jaws, Star Wars, Aliens (!!), Inception, etc. Films that are visually "outstading" just for one reason: tell a story. But where is it in Avatar? They forgot, they were too busy.
Want one more argument: who need to make more propaganda about "how" the movie was made than "what" this movie is about? Answer: James Cameron.
