After 13 years of anticipation, James Cameron’s “Avatar: The Way of Water” has finally been unveiled for members of the press following the movie’s world premiere in London. The first reactions to the film are overwhelmingly positive, with many journalists blown away once again by Cameron’s boundless imagination and pristine visual effects.

“I don’t want anybody whining about length when they sit and binge-watch [television] for eight hours,” Cameron told Empire magazine over the summer. “I can almost write this part of the review. ‘The agonizingly long three-hour movie…’ It’s like, give me a fucking break. I’ve watched my kids sit and do five one-hour episodes in a row. Here’s the big social paradigm shift that has to happen: it’s okay to get up and go pee.”

Can a disaster epic about an epic disaster avoid the very fate it dramatizes? "Titanic," director James Cameron's cinematic retelling of the story of the doomed luxury liner, is over budget, behind schedule and plagued by the sort of vicious Hollywood gossip that stokes the ulcers of studio executives. Even before anyone has actually seen it, the movie has engendered its own legend of ego and excess, both the personal and financial kinds.

I haven’t seen a movie literally in years and my wife and I were talking about going to IMAX for a date night because of the nostalgia of seeing the first one when we were dating.
