James Cameron’s Humble Beginnings
When you see the nattily attired James Cameron Sunday night at the Oscars, remember he wasn’t always the billion dollar boy who could do no wrong. Just like every other Hollywood power player, he had to start at the ground level.
Long before Avatar and Titanic were the two most profitable movies ever created, Cameron was piecing together the C-grade horror flick Piranha II: The Spawning. Since Jimbo took over after the original director bounced, it’s unknown how much of the finished product emanated from his genius mind. For argument’s sake, let’s assume every single frame. It’s funnier that way.
At any rate, flying piranha are awesome and ridiculous and a scientific improbability, which makes them the perfect movie monster hellbent on devouring the human race one fleshy bit at a time. Vampire bats are pussies compared to these aerodynamic assault weapons. Look out! It’s death from above:
Just for the goof factor, I think Cameron should do a remake. He could shoot it over a long weekend with whatever loose change he had in his pockets. Suggested title: Piranha III: School of Death.

See there they go! Why the black man have to get killed every dam time?
Ya black guys Were always the firt to die in older horror movie cliches but more recent movies exercise affrimative action by killing off the black guys near the end or by making it look like they died from a fatal Injurry only to return at the end of the movie to save the day
He didn’t “bounce.” He was fired. Do some research.
Just shows that everybody has to start somewhere. After one flick, Cameron looked like Uwe Boll.
