Kathryn Bigelow: James Cameron is behind all my Oscars

I believe that he has no enmity toward her, and that he is happy for her success. However, I do not believe that he wasn't upset about losing Best Picture. I think it is going to light a serious fire under him for the sequel. I have a feeling the sequel is going to be epic on a level that has never been seen or contemplated before. Kind of a, "OK, let's see you not give THIS Best Picture" type of thing

Now THAT is a post that made my day. More posts like this and my brain can't take much more happiness.

Cameron is a good sportsman. I bet one of the reasons he isn't angry at Kathryn (whether it's a big reason, or just a side one) is because he had his day with "Titanic". He was the king of the world then, and he knows Avatar will still be loved by far more people than those who liked "The Hurt Locker". Plus, "The Hurt Locker" really needed this fame to get anywhere at all, since it was a pretty bad flop at the box office... Had it been worth seeing at all; all I saw was a lot of heart-felt emotion and intensity with absolutely no plot to tie it together, like a documentary you can see an identical twin of on stations like "Military Channel"...

Exactly, the Avatar sequel will be like Terminator 2. It will go from great to epic win

I'm over the Oscars as well. They are still run by the same people and will continue to award less than stellar movies at times. I hope we will get a very good sequel to Avatar . I'm excited to find out more about Pandora and the Na'vi. There is potential for an even better story . We'll just have to be patient and see.

You're right... Unfortunately, the oscars are still run by the same idiots
Scifi has never done well before... Hopefully, Avatar 2 might change that though
