>To me, this might be the most challenging film I ever make I don’t 100% have my strategy fully in place for how I want to see it—how I want to shield people from the horror but still be honest.

>I want to show you what it was like. You’re just there. You’re a witness to history, you’re a witness to what really happened… I am actually afraid of this movie in a way.

Is this just a documentary or a real movie?

Movie

>>213387342 (OP)
Pass. I’ve seen Grave of the Fireflies and feel no guilt over it, no interest in seeing this.

>>213387342 (OP)
why doesnt this bleeding heart faggot make a movie about the rape of nanking?

yes

Tokyo
Hiroshima
Nagasaki
Berlin
Dresden
all allied war crimes

>hippy Leaf trying to guilt trip Americans
Maybe Japan should have surrendered. You would think Cameron would support the nukes because nips were slaughtering the ancestors of his previous new countrymen.

So, it's a flash of bright light and you can't see shit for the rest of the film? I guess it'll sell a couple of HDR TVs at least.

>>213387342 (OP)
I want to feel chunks of burning human flesh hitting me in the face. Maybe he can do some exclusive screenings where he can spray the audience with pig guts

>>213387803
do you know what Japan did Nanking and before we nuked them? also they attacked us first. death to nazis and axis scum, as my great grandfather would say.

OH N-

live action Barefoot Gen?

>>213387472
a veritable tour de force
he's gonna wipe the floor with nolan and his wet fart

He already did this with Titanic a tragedy you watch to fap to people dying

>great grandfather
grandfather for me, but grandparents and parents didn't have kids until their 40s (I'm 33)

good, I was excited for Oppenheimer because I want badass NUKE scenes
that's all i want
Oppenheimer didn't deliver, but JC will. he's done it before

Nolan was too much of a pussy to detonate a nuke so Cameron has to take it into his own hands

>>213387798
That would be too offensive to non-whites.

>>213387342 (OP)
Imagine this in 4DX holy kino

>>213387342 (OP)
Well, if his Avatar movies are anything to go by, I expect all the Japanese people in that movie to be pulling back on their eyes and talking through giant buckteeth... and probably hissing or something too.

>>213387342 (OP)
Based James is going to mog Nolan so hard

>>213388340
It's Cameron so any japanese actors will be strictly side characters and the movie will be about two americans who meet and fall in love the day before the nuke drops. Then the final act will be them trying to escape a city full of burning japs

>>213387342 (OP)
Nolan would nuke hiroshima and film it in imax. Cameron just doesnt have the balls or skill.

>>213388521
Nah, the girl will be japanese. The main guy will be white

I honestly don't expect Cameron to be able to portray a nuclear explosion as convincingly as Nolan. It might end up looking better, but it won't be as cerebral.

>>213387472
Documentaries aren't real movies?

>>213389726
Only David Lynch did it convincingly

I wonder if it will look as good as REAL nuke footage like this

>>213389908
This. I went in to oppenheimer expecting something mind blowing and the nuke scene in twin peaks the return was 100% more impactful

>>213391379
Nolan's insistence on practical effects is usually a good thing, but it bit him in the ass in Oppenheimer. You can't simulate a nuclear blast by igniting a couple barrels of gasoline

>>213387803
War Crimes trials are post-hoc justification to enforce the demands of the victor upon the loser. In other words, a meme.

>I want to show you what it was like
I hope he cooks some real japs then

>let me get this straight, Jimbo:
>you want the studio to finance your own nuclear weapons program, to produce a real bomb, to blow up a real African city, so you can get footage for your upcoming Hiroshima movie?
>where do I sign?

>>213387342 (OP)
We don't need a $300 million dollar movie about this subject.
