Of course, the global popularity ranks first.

Personally, I feel that "Titanic" is definitely ranked in the top three in Cameron's works. On the one hand, Kashen uses a popular love story as the main line, which actually depicts the multiple aspects of humanity's good and evil, and puts these good and evil In the context of an unprecedented tragedy, the main theme has been further sublimated, which is a bit loud and unbelievable. Many years later, in "Avatar", he essentially copied/reproduced the love story of Jack and Rose.

On the other hand, although Cameron's sci-fi works are the majority, he should be defined as a technical director. In the most expensive work in history, "Titanic", Cameron has used Hollywood special effects technology very well. , The effect is that every shot makes you immersive, and you can’t even feel the presence of special effects. I always feel that the special effects that make people see at a glance and are so addictive are not the top special effects. The top special effects should be a kind of creation and integration, such as "Titanic", such as "Lord of the Rings".

In this movie, Cameron proved that he is proficient in the scheduling of the scenes, the control of the rhythm, and the mastery of the Hollywood film industry, plus the acting skills of the hero and the hero, the god-level soundtrack and other bonuses, " "Titanic" as a commercial film, eventually became a classic work that achieved the ultimate in all aspects. Audiences who have seen a movie usually have only two attitudes, one is like and the other is love, precisely because of its vulgarity. For me, Cameron’s masterpieces are really many, but "Titanic" may not be surpassed.
