Say what you will about Cameron, but going from a Truck Driver without ever going to film school to becoming one of the best directors ever is incredible.
Well what ? Then i can't process this info lol he is absolutely terrific then 😊
I knew about Cameron being a truck driver,didn't know he never went to film school.Shows you what determination,an iron-will and persistence can do for you.
Spielberg failed film school and made a Truck movie. Schwartzenegger have overall the most impressive resume of everyone in Hollywood.
Mr Olympia, Married in to Kennedy Family, Became a Governor and is among most famous actors ever.
It says a lot about truck drivers.
@@V3ntilator And Arnold was a millionaire during his bodybuilding days doe to his real-estate dealings.Not bad for a guy who came to america with $ 25 dollars to his name,couldn't really speak much english,but,made his dreams come true.
James Cameron is a true blue collar hero. Former janitor to make ends meet. Teaching himself cinematography and special effects at a public library in his spare time while being a truck driver. Climbing the ladders below the line as a special effect director/matte painter. Sleeping in his car in LA before securing his first true directing/scripwriting gig on Terminator. Diving alone in the Mariana trenches at the deepest of the Pacific Ocean in a sub he helped building.
How could you not admire that man's accomplishments?
He’s a huge dick is probably why. Ask the cast of The Abyss. Just like Steve Jobs. Actually I think people liked Jobs more.
@@r3b3lvegan89 A huge dick that accomplished more in one lifetime than anybody commenting this video so what are you going to do about it?
I also watched the Abyss making-of and Cameron was being hard as much on himself almost drowning in the process as he was hard on his cast. So he's one to walk the talk unlike dicks like Steve Jobs and Elon Musk.
He's the American dream
After watching this fully, I conclude that James Cameron is not a mere director anymore. He has become beyond Hollywood. He has become one of the great driving force of human progress. True value to society.
Same. This gave me a new found appreciation for the guy.
Extraordinary human
LOL!
whether people like him or not, Jim is undeniably a filmmaking genius.
Would not call him the best director. But, for me he is the biggest visionary. He does the stuff he wants in the way he wants. I find that inspiring.
He’s definitely the best. Facts are facts
I agree with you. Spielberg is a better director. But James films make the most money because of his vision and massive technical mastery. I love them both. But Steven is still number one.
James Cameron one of the most brilliant and amazing film directors of all time his films will always stand the test of time. I'm proud to say he's from my home country of Canada 🇨🇦
why are you proud of being born in the same country?
@@aljabirxiju9475why not?
I think people still haven't realized how important this genius person is.. you won't get someone like this again in this lifetime..
There's me. People just fail to recognize my genius.
@@ricardoklement-yj8sr 😂
The story of a trucker becoming THE most rewarded filmmaker of all time with no formal education in the art (not 'one of'; THE most) should be an inspiration to us all.
Dude I already love this man works, but watching this.....now I know why he said he was the King of the World when he won that Oscar for directing Titanic, goddamn it he deserved that, this man is the TOM CRUISE of Directors, an explorer a Scientific, an ecologist, an artist and a Film maker, how in the world he finds the time to make all this is beyond me and make it as successful, Avatar 2 is already breaking records (again for all the doubters), this man is a treasure and an Inspiration to all who wants to create stories and worlds to fantasy and live in those worlds, and for that I can't thank enough James Cameron, this man is my favorite film maker today.
It's crazy to think that Fox hasn't paid James Cameron a penny for Titanic after all this time. He sacrificed his pay for the sake of the moive. They need to make that right
This isn't true anymore...its true Cameron gave his share away...but after the monster success the studio actually gave it back...I guess they wanted the relationship (which Avatar came out of) to continue.
That’s good on Fox if that’s true. The creators of Superman only got $100.
Well Fox doesn't exist since it was bought out by Disney last year
That is incorrect. They paid him a ton. Told him during the Golden Globes ceremony that year.
I think they gave him back after the success of the film.
I was also born in Kapuskasing, Ontario. But about 20 years after James. Not only is he the world's biggest director, he's directed some of my favourite films of all time. Maybe one day I'll make it as a filmmaker, then there'll be two from Kapuskasing.
I think Cameron does more in a day than I do in a year.
Big Cameron fan here. His body of work has made him the best action director of all time. It always feels visceral and authentic unlike a lot of directors who go overboard into the realm of ridiculousnesses. His action sequences in Aliens , T1 and T2 were incredible. The attack on Pandora in Avatar was brilliant too. Nothing wrong with having a big ego in the movie business when you can deliver the goods to an audience time and time again.
This video makes me appreciate James Cameron more. I like how Avatar was inspired by a dream James Cameron’s mom had
Incredible people like James Cameron are able to teach themselves.
Him and Nolan are my two goats. Auteurs like them are the reason why I still go to the cinema
Spielberg not bad either
I'm more of a William Friedkin girl, but I like those guys too.
Just an FYI, "GOAT" has officially been banished from use as of Dec, 31, 2022. Reasons? For overuse, misuse, and uselessness. “Applied to everyone and everything from athletes to chicken wings, How can anyone or anything be the GOAT, anyway? Records fall; time continues. Some sprinkle GOAT like table salt on anyone who’s really good.”
Just letting you know.
Nolan's brother is the true talent, he writes all his best work. When his brother doesn't write the movie, its meh with good cinematography.
This man's hard work ethic is beyond inspiring.
He truly is the best commercial filmmaker out there.
Absolute Hero and Example for us all. 🙏
TITANIC and T2 is a masterpiece
I agree.avatar 1 and 2 also are masterpieces.
@@rogerdominguez3691 dogshit movie for dogshit minds but you do you 🤣
@@konanoobiemasteryay your are the only one who is genius every one else is stupid
Great work! As an already avid James Cameron fan, I learned so much from this video.
Thank you for all the hard work, research, and editing that went into this.
that's Cameron's mantra 'do it right or don't do it at all - and it shows - every freakin' time!
James Cameron actually plays Lewis Dodgson in my Jurassic Park Extinction film that I’ve been working on for 10 years now
I have never heard of afternoon tea breaks lasting an hour here in the UK, 10-15 mins is the norm, has been for decades so I question that. Lots of well respected directors work perfectly well at Pinewood making Bond movies and other major motion pictures and still do. So I think this was more likely a culture clash between a workaholic Canadian director with a lot to prove on one of his first major movies and an established crew used to working a certain way with breaks included. An outstanding movie none the less.
Seldom I watched RUclips videos this long up to the end. Thank you Biographer for featuring Cameron. He is an inspiration.
Whenever the word "maverick" is used, James Cameron is who I think of first.
Cameron,Jackson,Nolan, Villeneuve,these are the best
Thank you for this amazing video! Cameron is the greatest and wow what a journey he has experienced following his dreams.
Thank you very much for this docu; tons of research and a great presentation
Beautiful video :) Thank you
Very informative, thank you
This man is not just a director. He's the God of movie with pure insanity.
Great docu, thanks for this compilation!
Wow! Great documentary guys!
Wow! What a great biography. This definately gave me new found appreciation for James Cameron 👌
Made me realise how much James has exposed my mind
to such visual, imaginative and stimulative feasts.
Truly an amazing human and artist. Thoroughly enjoyed this, Thankyou ♥️🇦🇺
His name is James, James Cameron
The bravest pioneer
No budget too steep, no sea too deep
Who's that?
It's him, James Cameron
James, James Cameron explorer of the sea
With a dying thirst to be the first
Could it be? Yeah that's him!
James Cameron
thank you for the great videos that you made.
Thanks for this video about the great person! Much love and gratitude to biographer page from India 🙂👍🏻
Thank you for this video
James Cameron; A true Polymath.
the only thing poly around here is you
@@konanoobiemaster What are you talking about? This video literally shows James Cameron being a polymath. It's a compliment.
Terminator 2 is my favorite. I had a major crush on Edward Furlong.
Furlongs certainly does have a unique PRESCENCE on screen. Pity he's not done more work.
Brilliant. Thanks a lot. Make another one on Francis Ford Coppola
3D is thrived because of J.Cameron, as IMAX is thrived because of Nolan
T1, T2, True Lies and Titanic are my fave.
Interesting video
Aliens is still one of my favorite movies, just watched the directors cut the other night, still works. great example of a sequel being amazing!
Oh, realy wanna see his Bio, thanks!
Very interesting man
Best director of all time. Every movie is epic.
Thank you
Thank you science for inspiring all and James Cameron.
Thank God he the Big Boss
Cameron is the best director hands down. Nobody has done what he's done at the boxoffice. He has avatar,titanic at the top of the list for most money made worldwide.and I think avatar 2 is right there with them.i honestly think terminator 2 should be up there with these movies as well.
James is a true artist, UNIQUE in his style, watching his approach to tell a story, I lost count how many times I have seen Titanic over the years, well over 1000 times; I know the movie line by line by heart; it is like a studying for a career I will never have but it brings me great pleasure every time I watch it which why I can not stop doing it, maybe I am sort of a hopelessly romantic; now same goes for Avatar I have watched the first one many times and about 10 times since released the second, learning the scenes by heart; if I would expend the same time in my own craft as a musician I would probably become a huge star but I have an avid passion for watching stories and films; when very young I read any good book I could get hands on and about everything; my approach to do anything in life is exactly the same as James shows in his work; we could be distant twins in that aspect and people like that come across as assholes and hard asses to those watching; becomes a tyrant of sorts but that is what deep passion does, I have never met a giant that did not inspired fear or respect for his stature; in the end it happens people like this turn out to be really good persons; look up Sigourney Weaver's interview where she describes James personality. This world needs more James!
It doesn't matter what's on the screen, all I can hear is James Cameron's song from that episode of South Park.
Tea and Biscuit break 🤣
Video says that Titanic's original approved budget was 200 million. This is incorrect, original budget was 110 million, it went way over budget, Cameron forfeited his salary (which wasn't of much help to the amount they actually needed to complete the film). Ended up being 200 million afterwards after lots of stress, delays, drama involving the studio. Originally it was going to be only a Fox production, but they had to split some of the costs with Paramount (which I believe was not originally involved).
I appreciate the effort in making this. I'ts in many ways a good summary of JC's carreer. However there are some (well, a lot of) loosely handled (wrong and missing) facts here (to say the least). One of the most glaringly obvious is the list of Academy Award nominations for Aliens 20:12 which skips Sigourney Weaver's nomination for best actress in a leading role but lists the other four! (Yes it got five nominations, not four). Spending more time on fact checking and proof reading scripts is probably a good idea.
Great 👍 👌
LEGEND!
James Cameron is without a doubt the greatest director of all time.
This man s a magician n his magics always deliver gems at box office⭐️⭐️💓💓💓💓👌
he've already won the lifetime achievement award 20 years ago
Jim is a freaking genius
We can't forget True Lies and Aliens! Those movies are my favorites as well and unforgettable. (Arnies last great Movie, Aliens matches Alien but w more action)
I love his movies and avatar 1 and 2 are the best looking films that I’ve ever seen.
A living legend.
23:03 - It’s interesting that your comments about the Abyss said “they almost filmed at…” but never mentioned the really interesting fact that they filmed in an abandoned Nuclear power plant tank.
From Wiki:
“Underwater sequences for the film were shot at a unit of the Gaffney Studios, situated south of Cherokee Falls, outside Gaffney, South Carolina, which had been abandoned by Duke Power officials after previously spending $700 million constructing the Cherokee Nuclear Power Plant, along Owensby Street, Gaffney, South Carolina.
Two specially constructed tanks were used. The first one, based on the abandoned plant's primary reactor containment vessel, held 7.5 million US gallons (28,000 m3) of water, was 55 feet (18 m) deep and 209 feet (70 m) across. At the time, it was the largest fresh-water filtered tank in the world. Additional scenes were shot in the second tank, an unused turbine pit, which held 2.5 million US gallons (9,500 m3) of water. As the production crew rushed to finish painting the main tank, millions of gallons of water poured in and took five days to fill. The Deepcore rig was anchored to a 90-ton concrete column at the bottom of the large tank. It consisted of six partial and complete modules that took over half a year to plan and build from scratch.”
I actually worked for a Boston company that supplied the projection equipment for the production and got to go down there to pick the equipment up. It was a very strange experience walking around the set.
I've never heard of Hollywood referred to as "The" Hollywood.
James Cameron is very great director, he is amazing.👍👍👍
All the tech and science is for nothing if you don’t have a good script and relatable characters. That’s what James Cameron understands and that’s why his movies become such big hits imho.
Any of his movies could easily have become technological orgies for geeks, with their characters being little else than moving props. However, Mr C goes as far as he possibly can to grab hold of the raw nerves of his audience first.
Being a Titanic nerd since childhood, it was like sheer Christmas to go see a movie where you’d finally see the ship in all her glory in those first recreated 1912 scenes. However, the love story between Jack and Rose caught me SO hard that when the iceberg finally turned up, I was jolted back into ”oh yes, the ship’s going to SINK, I almost forgot!”
And then all of the strong female characters… and their true femininity in how they see and relate to things… you could write a book on that alone.
He is a genius
Agreed
Yeah I guess, if you consider an overhyped overrated cartoon video game looking rehash of fern gully genius
Another amazing one my guy
Make one on *Brendan Fraser* asap as a non american i know nothing about him i would really love that one
ruclips.net/video/kEz5Vatgcz8/видео.html - already)
That’s how films should be made. Great practical effects. The CGI monsters would be remote robotic models with LED’s now a days.
I love titanic and terminator and first avatar movie
Wow.. he thought about Avatar before Titanic.. legend after legend..
Which James Cameron movie is your favorite?
T2.
Way Of Water
U forgot to say anime in the list of inspiration
Lol
T2 ofcourse.But everything he does is above avarage.
T2 and titanic
James is the man
I CANNOT AGREE more with James Cameron vision meatless society. We, as a specie, is already a modern marvel surpassing nature natural instincts. We should at least leave behind the very things that is primitive to us.
We can make meat without the animal is an awesome scientific achievement. I do hope we transition completely in my life time.
Nice
@4:00 Truck driver thing mentioned. But a short U-Haul truck I'm thinking, since a "wknd job" means not CDL (not Optimus Prime)
Yes, but never let the truth get in the way of a good story ;)
will settle for a 4k scans of his previous movies for home media
That was an interesting tidbit about Cameron refusing to recite the Lord’s Prayer as a kid. I felt the same when I was young! I even rewrote the prayer so I could recite to drown out the creepiness of everyone else around me who were speaking it.
My favourite director.
Love or hate James cameron u must respect and thank him for creating what hollywood cant do but he can
Hey. I believe that Cameron had the idea of the "liquid metal" Terminator from the start. His original idea I believe was for Henriksen to play a Terminator infiltration unit that was made of "liquid metal" and Arnold to be the good guy from the Resistence - Sarah's protector. Then on one side Arnold convinced Cameron that he wanted to play the Terminator robot, while on the other side the idea of liquid metal Terminator was a bit ahead of its time in 1983 so they decided not to use it. Cameron's idea for Henriksen to play the Terminator infiltration unit was based on his perception that this kind of robot would have to be slick and should not have stood out in public but instead blending in. He thought Arnold was to muscular and would stand out too much. In a way T2 was actually closer to his original vision, but I have to say I'm one of the people who prefer the original Terminator by far. Yeah the cinematic production of T2 is levels above, but I just loved the chemistry and the acting of T1. It's my alltime favorite Cameron and Arnold movie.
Would love to 👀 videos on Jerry Bruckheimer, Quentin Tarantino, Samuel L Jackson, Don Simpson, Sylvester Stallone, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Mel Gibson
Enjoyed learning more about James Cameron. The narration though could use some more natural pauses. Sometime the narration started to feel monotoned and fatiguing. More breaks and brief moments of silence would give the video a more enjoyable flow.
From truck driver to marvel banger. The 🐐
This is my hero.
Its surprising to look at his Filmography and realise how small it actually is. Reminds me of another director, Stanley Kubrick. However, Cameron hasn't branched into as many genres as Kubrick did but the work he has done has been mould breaking and fantastic. the only things I wish for Cameron in terms of future film making is to get this avatar 4 film epic out of his system so we can see something that isn't avatar from him before his career is over
After having watched at least 7 videos produced by "Biographer," I've concluded that the strange pronunciations of names of people and places are deliberate affectations, not mistakes. He puts the accents on the wrong syllables, uses long vowels instead of short vowels, and other things.
One of my "favorites" is his pronouncing Dame Judi Dench as "Jude-eye" instead of "Jude-ee." Unfortunately, I was drinking some water at the time, and hearing Jude-eye made me spit water all over myself! Why does he do this? So he becomes memorable! 😹
T2 my favorite movie ever respect the goat I wish he would do R rated films but it's all good
My dad went too school with him in chipawa and Niagara falls.He came up with the idea for terminator while learning and playing with liquid mercury.not a nightmare.he just didn't have the tech until t2 to realize his liquid metal terminater.
Cameron has told the story of his inspiration for the story of The Therminator himself in interviews about the nightmare he had while being sick after shooting Piranah 2. Pretty sure you're confusing The Terminator with Terminator 2 Judgement day where the T-1000 liquid metal terminator is introduced.
Do Steven Spielberg and George Lucas next please.
True
As many wives as King Henry V111. Some literally, obviously losing their heads.

hey BIO.. how r u...?
All of them .....ROBERT RODRIGUEZ WAS GIVEN A CHANCE TO MAKE A MOVIE BECAUSE JAMES CAMERON TURNED IT DOWN FOR AVATAR..... ALITA, BATTLE ANGEL IS MY NUMBER 1...... I HAVEN'T SEEN ,HEARD OR FELT THAT IT GOT MENTION, THOSE DIRECTORS ARE THE BEST......
Would love for James Cameron to make a Live Action Atlantis Movie... He would do it Justice! Talk about a Passion Project
