...auto industry, is a purist and says his "butt-in-seat" flights only amount to 8.8 million since he started in 1982. (Counting all miles from flight bonuses and credit card extras, the total is an astronomical 30 million miles.) He says he's still gunning for a pure 10 million of miles his butt has actually flown...
...cuts through the Cooper Union façade - part dancer, part dueling scar, part Chinese character that never was - could be called a gesture towards transparency. It corresponds to the public areas of the building and discloses them to the outside. It could also be called a gesture of pure architectural theater.

But here, for the first time, Cameron's future vision has not been limited by the strictures of a real-world movie set. The result is his most fantastical film, one that hews to the rules of science in its creatures and environments but not to the limitations of the physical world of props and the human body. Of course, it still needs to draw human bodies to the theater. Its trickiest special effect...
