WithAvatar: The Way of Watermaking excellent strides at the box office, there is significant curiosity as to how the movie came together. In an interview withVariety,Avatar: The Way of WaterscreenwritersRick JaffaandAmanda Silverrevealed how the whole franchise was planned almost ten years ago along with directorJames Cameronin a place they call “Avatarboot camp.” Based on their interview, it’s pretty safe to say that Cameron’s approach for writing the next installments of the Na’vi stories was as ambitious as the movies’ signature special effects....

That’s why it’s a big deal thatGreta Gerwig’sLady Birdhas now taken the title of the Best Reviewed movie in Rotten Tomatoes history....
