James Cameron opened up on the venture and was quoted saying, "When I wrote the film, and when I set out to direct it, I wanted every detail to be as accurate as I could make it, and every harrowing moment of the ship's final hours accounted for. I was creating a living history; I had to get it right out of respect for the many who died and for their legacy. But did I really get it right? Now, with National Geographic and with the latest research, science, and technology, I'm going to reassess."
Considering how Cameron directed Titanic with the minutest details, this collaboration is only going to get better and the outcome is expected to be just as spectacular.
