Cirque du Soleil Worlds Away is the Titanic director's latest 3D fling. But do we really want to see – through 3D glasses – blokes in leotards twirling around on bits of ribbon?
It's probably fair to say that the 3D revolution hasn't panned out exactly as James Cameron envisioned. Avatar was released over two years ago, so by now you would have thought that cinema would be awash with similarly high-reaching 3D epics. But no. Instead we've got a tidal wave of ropey conversion jobs, an increasingly suspicious public and the very real threat that 3D will have caved in on itself by the time Avatar 2 gets released.
This could be the reason for James Cameron's recent decision to dementedly prop up all of 3D by himself. Last year he executive produced Sanctum, a kind of 3D subaquatic spelunking drama that was notable only for Cameron's involvement – something the...

You’ll have to forgive my insolence, but the James Cameron-produced, Andrew Adamson-directed 3D Cirque du Soleil film slipped from my mind over the past 13 months. Though I was reminded of it in a pretty positive way (or, as positively as one could take this news): A press release tells us that Paramount has acquired the project, titled Cirque du Soleil Worlds Away.
We aren’t told anything about the story, actors, or wacky contortions in this announcement, but we can nevertheless expect “a truly amazing moviegoeing experience for audiences of all ages.” Even without that information at hand, I’m pretty confident in saying this is a project I’ll only lend some attention toward — primarily because of Cameron‘s technical work in the 3D department. A new movie from the director of Shrek and Narnia just isn’t in my wheelhouse of interest.

James Cameron likes to work with the biggest possible canvas in whatever narrative mode he's in, as evidenced by the expanding scope of his Terminator films, then movies like Titanic and Avatar. As far as physical performance goes, you don't get much bigger than Cirque Du Soleil (as far as name recognition goes, at least) and so Cameron working with the company seems pretty natural. You might remember that James Cameron was working as producer and 3D consultant on a filmed Cirque Du Soleil feature that Andrew Adamson (Shrek, The Chronicles of Narnia) was writing and directing. We first heard about this [1] way back in December of 2010, and news has been quiet on the project since then. Now there is some new info, primarily that Paramount has picked up worldwide rights to the film. The studio press release is below. The info that isn't in the press release is that...
