The Osar-winning filmmaker attended Tuesday's ceremony in honor of Avatar: The Way of Water. Learn more about his red-carpet comments.
James Cameron's new Avatar film is a marvel and certainly deserves to be seen on the big screen. The Oscar winner isn't afraid to speak up and support the ultimate movie-going experience — and audiences around the world agree, as it shows: According to Variety, Avatar: The Way of Water recently broke $1.708 billion globally, which means Cameron's hit sequel has officially passed 2015’s Jurassic World as the seventh-highest-grossing movie in film history. Cameron himself is also making history as the first director to have three movies exceeding 1.5 billion dollars at the box office worldwide.
It's no surprise, then, that Cameron didn't shy away on Tuesday's Golden Globes red carpet from continuing to support seeing films in theaters versus at home via streaming. "Enough with the streaming already!" he told Variety during the red carpet pre-show. "I'm tired of sitting on my a**!" See below for a closer look at why the Avatar franchise is the ultimate celebration of movie-theater magic — and why Cameron is correct in advocating for the theatrical experience versus streaming for these sorts films.
