Aliens all the way. One of the greatest action films of all time.

But what's happened to this guy? From aliens,terminator and terminator 2 to titanic and avatar.

That's a long way to fall. I was so excited about avatar but felt like crying after the film. Couldn't turn a blind eye like I did with titanic.

Don't think he'll go back to making action films for adults since both titanic and avatar made more money than in existence.

I'll just go and put on the Aliens blu ray and keep wishing.

Seeing as how Avatar is a great movie, it's a great addition to Cameron's resume.

Tough call. I really love The Abyss.

Maybe it's because it came as a surprise, like growing up I heard of these R-rated films that I couldn't see until I was older and how awesomely good they were. So their quality was kind of expected. I had never heard of The Abyss until like two years ago and it was such a fun experience. I should probably watch Cameron's underwater docs.

True Lies was so great. Maybe the last great action movie of its kind.
