\"\"<\/a>Yesterday, James Cameron unveiled 20 minutes of footage from the 3D conversion of his film Titanic<\/strong> to reporters in New York and during the presentation he stated that outside of the 3D conversion<\/a> of the film he would be making no changes to the Academy Award-winning film.<\/p>\n

We’re not changing a frame. The ship still sinks. It ends the same way.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Cameron cited George Lucas’ perpetually updating of his Star Wars<\/strong> films as something he wanted to avoid, even it meant having to live with some special effects work that he now considers “cringers.”<\/p>\n

I see that as the example of what I don’t want to do. I don’t mean that as a slam. [Lucas] considers his movies a perpetual work in progress. For me, the problem is, once you pull that thread, it all unravels. Where do you stop?’<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

For Cameron, the conversion, which comes with a price tag of $18 million, is more about re-presenting the film for theatrical audiences and to experience the story in a new way than it is about just updating the visual look of the film.<\/p>\n

I think the film holds up pretty darn well. In 3D, it becomes kind of a new experience\u2026 It’s a much more intimate and involving experience both with the characters and with the physical space.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The film is set for release on April 12, 2012 to mark the centennial of the luxury liner\u2019s infamous sinking.<\/p>\n
