The first two sentences of IGN's paragraph on James Cameron's role in Avatar are very short. This shortness more than halfway through the written review is a great rhetorical strategy to maintain the attention of the audience.

The first sentence of my paragraph in the review parallels that of IGN's. Along with the rest of the paragraph, the first sentence is very short and concise. This use of rhetoric is effective because it disrupts the monotony of the review and reengages the reader.
