James Cameron’s 12 Year Intermission

James Cameron: Man of Tomorrow, Part 8

When we began this series, we'd planned on simply skimming over the fact that James Cameron had a 12-year gap in his filmography — at least, in narrative films — between TITANIC and AVATAR.

But in researching what he was up to during that time, we realized that the work he was doing, both in terms of filmmaking, and in developing new technologies, was going to be hugely impactful to the work he'd do on AVATAR and beyond.

So on this episode, we're going to do something a little different. Instead of focusing on a single film, we're going to discuss all of the things that James Cameron got up to during his 12-year hiatus from feature filmmaking, from documentaries to changes in both his personal and professional lives to the creation of the type of 3D cameras that would prove integral to his work going forward.
