James Cameron’s Movieline Interview: Cameron Takes on Bad 3D, Inception, and Spider-Man

Last Thursday, I had a lengthy, terrific interview with James Cameron in advance of the special edition of Avatar (rereleased to theaters August 27), and all this week, Movieline will bring you pieces of that wide-ranging talk. Before its release last December, Avatar was touted as a 3D game-changer, and it certainly has been — though not always in ways James Cameron intended. What does he think of the trend of post-conversion 3D, the push for 3D television sets, and mega movies like Inception (which resisted a 3D conversion) and the Spider-Man reboot (which will be shot natively in 3D)? Cameron told Movieline.

Late Night Highlights: Jay Leno Wrestles a Wolf, Jon Stewart Defends South Park and J. Lo Finds Her Monroe

You might not know this, but every night at 11:35 P.M., dog pounds around the nation adjust the rabbit ears on their archaic black-and-white television sets and tune in for the Tonight Show monologue. They howl at what they think are the good jokes (“Happy Earth Day Kev!”), whimper at the bad (“In Beverly Hills, recycling plastic means remarrying your ex-wife”) and then dream about Jay Leno adopting them and letting them live inside his thousand-car garage. Well, that all changed during last night’s show, when dog orphans around the country watched in horror as Leno awkwardly shushed and coldly patted their distant relative, the American Gray Wolf, during his Earth Day segment. “Aw, hell no,” they thought, before switching the channel to Lopez Tonight . That sad clip, as well as the other highlights you missed while getting in touch with your inner Glee kid , after the jump.
