Cirque de Soliel: World's Away
Paramount

James Cameron knows a thing or two about 3-D. And it's fair to say that the creator of "Avatar" also knows a thing or two about other worlds. But until this very moment we would have said that the circus was probably not an area of expertise.

Well, guess what?

Yes, it's the trailer for "Cirque du Soleil : Worlds Away 3D" — and it's presented by the ultimate movie ringmaster himself, James Cameron. Get More »

James Cameron may have gone to China to encourage the country to open up to more co-productions with the United States (which would give Hollywood's films access to an enormous movie-going market) — but it was his comments about his plans for the "Avatar" franchise that are really creating buzz.

When asked by the New York Times what projects he's currently looking at, the director extraordinaire had a lot to say … which basically boiled down to "not many" (our words, not his). Get More »

'Titanic' Math Problems: Experts Prove Jack And Rose Would Have Sunk

Paramount

While humble movie director James Cameron spends his free time exploring the Mariana Trench or funding asteroid mining operations, actual scientists are still obsessing over his 1997 blockbuster "Titanic."

Some loose message board ponderings led to a small faction of internet eggheads on Reddit (via Gawker) to crack the code of whether or not Jack and Rose could have both stayed afloat on that famous piece of wood, and it turns out Kate Winslet wasn't being a selfish plank hog after all: they would have sunk.

Hollywood's biggest epic sets sail once again this week as James Cameron's dimensionally expanded "Titanic 3D" hits theaters to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the eponymous ship's voyage (we can assure you that making more money has nothing to do with it).

Blue Men Have Another Accuser Seeing Green in 'Avatar' Lawsuit

Avatar
Fox

When James Cameron created a world full of blue-skinned human hybrids and a Tree of Souls, it likely came as quite a surprise that so many other people had been there as well.

In the sixth lawsuit against the blockbuster movie, writer Elijah Schkeiban claims that Cameron's "Avatar" blatantly ripped off his seminal work, "Bats & Butterflies." In the suit, Schkeiban claims that Cameron stole elements of the paperback, including an injured protagonist, an indigenous non-human species living on a far away planet, and a war between two groups (no, seriously).

Schkeiban alleges that some dialogue was stolen as well, although with Cameron dropping  phrases like, "When people are sittin' on s**t that you want, you make 'em your enemy," all over "Avatar," we're more than a little worried about the mental state of anyone who might lay claim to them.

Film Is Dead in Keanu Reeves' 'Side by Side' Trailer

Side by Side
Company Films

Will actual film -- you know, the 35mm kind of stuff -- be little more than a novelty by 2015?

That's what they say, which means digital filmmaking may be poised to become the norm in Hollywood, a transition that's already spurning much debate and discussion (not to mention lamentation). Does digital take the "art" out of filmmaking? Is digital making it impossible to discern the real deal from the amateur shooting in his backyard? And what the heck does James Cameron mean with "You can't shoot 3-D on film?" Get More »

The Na'vi Get Served: Former Cameron Employee Files Claim Against 'Avatar'

When a movie like "Avatar" brings home about 2.8 billion in global receipts, it's no wonder when people start crawling out of the woodwork to get a piece of that spicy meat-a-ball.

Thus is the case with Mark Ryder, a former employee of James Cameron's Lightstorm Entertainment who claims the "Titanic" filmmaker sank his dreams of success. According to The Hollywood Reporter, Ryder filed a suit in Los Angeles Superior Court wherein he sites treatments, photos, 3-D imagery and character elements all created for an abandoned project titled "K.R.Z. 2068."
