Avatar director James Cameron says that he wants Marvel movies to keep making money hand over fist. The company’s movies make Billions, but the competition is hoping their rivalry can continue. In some comments to IndieWire, the director says that this desire is motivated by the continued health of the theater industry. Both movie fans and analysts have watched the effect of the coronavirus pandemic on the entertainment landscape. It’s not too hyperbolic to say that the worldwide situation has altered how movies, tv, and other amusements will function forever. However, for Cameron, it is absolutely crucial that the theater experience persists despite the focus on streaming. Disney+, HBO Max, and Netflix all offer consumers something different. But, for directors, talent, and the crews that help bring these stories to life, the at-home landscape presents a huge unknown.
