Big Jim is back! I'm referring to James Cameron of course, the Oscar-winning director of Titanic who also gave us such modern classics as Aliens, The Terminator, Terminator 2, and most recently Avatar which came out in 2009. Despite a lengthy production process and going massively overbudget, that film shocked every one to become a worldwide phenomenon - it starred Sam Worthington as Jake and Zoe Saldana as Netyri, two star-crossed lovers fighting to protect the Navi people on the moon of Pandora.
And now both Jake and Netyri are back as well, this time with several kids who are becoming warriors in their own right. Once again, they have to keep them safe while fighting the "Sky People" once again lead by Colonel Miles Quarych played by Stephen Lang as the human villain of the first film - well THIS time, he now has own Avatar and is on the hunt for Jake and family. Coming out thirteen years after the first film, Cameron has worked exhaustively to craft an even more stirring epic with more impressive visual effects plus state-of-the-art 3D - let's see how his storytelling has developed alongside the technology.
