While I actually have my own movie/book review blog, I'm far more intrigued by the first option this week. I aspire to be a director, and as such I have given directors a lot of thought. My personal favorite, and the career I've decided to follow, would be James Cameron. I definitely realize how far fetched it is to say "I'm going to be the next James Cameron" but eh I'm just going to go for it and see what happens. The two movies I'm going with are Terminator and Avatar. They are both excellent films. They are both futuristic with excellent technology for what was required. James Cameron invented much of the effects himself which is awesome. They both have very strong leads, with Sarah Conner and Jake Sully being two very determined individuals. They both had a central romance, some tragic deaths, and robots were actually pretty important all around.
Differences include a distinct lack of blue people in Terminator. Also they took place on different planets. But in general they are both amazing and I have a great respect for both.
