Cameron has an awful reputation for how he treats people on set and you really see it start to come out here pretty quickly . He’s hostile and dismissive the moment any criticism is mentioned whether it be from Roland Emerich when he tells the reporter to “move on”, proving the “overbearing” criticism right, or that anyone who criticizes his transfers as needing to “move out of mom’s basement”. His films are often awe-inspring but he’s been called “a nightmare to work with” and “autocratic” on set.
That describes almost every director we view as great. Kubrick, Hitchcock being the worst, I’m sure I could come up with more.
While it’s true that many great directors have/had questionable methods on set, there are also plenty that don’t/didn’t. Off the top of my head, I can’t recall bad stories about Steven Spielberg, Martin Scorcese or Ridley Scott.
Yeah, true in many cases. The post was about Cameron so that’s the only director I’m addressing at the moment but the industry is definitely filled with people using their “art” to excuse their bad and often abusive behavior like you said. There’s a lot of very concentrated power to abuse.
I was hoping he’d be back

Can we just let the Terminator series die. The last three movies were bad.
The guy who hasn’t had an original thought ever doesn’t have an original thought? My word i am just flabbergasted.
