First, I hope you’re having a happy Thanksgiving. Now please allow me to give thanks for…
That’s right, I’m giving thanks for James Cameron and not just because he’s finally releasing a movie.
No, I’d like to thank him for putting some ducats in my pocket.
As some of you may know, I’m involved in digital cinema. I run a quality control team and right now AVATAR has our complete attention. But if you really know me, you know I’m a workaholic. That’s why I took a job timing and placing stereoscopic subtitles for AVATAR. No rest for the wicked, right?
Also, if you’ve ever asked me what my favorite film is, I have a quick and reliable answer. They are (in no particular order)…
All three were formative in pushing me towards a career in the movies and each has left an indelible imprint on the work I do. How so? You’ll just have to look at my stuff and figure that out for yourself but I’ll tell you that ALIENS was the first movie I obsessed over. I read all the novelizations, I knew all the characters, gear and dialog, I played all the video games, I even had nightmares for years to come (it was the little ones that freaked me out).
Jim (I can call you “Jim,” right?), I’m treating your flick as if it were my own so don’t worry, I won’t let Paul Verhoeven subtitle this motherfucker (that’s for all of you that read Jim’s profile in The New Yorker).
People of the world, if you have a quality AVATAR viewing experience, give me some props!
