'Piranha 3D' producer fires back at James Cameron

Okay, so "Avatar" director James Cameron is out there crying because other folks are shooting in 3D and are having a blast creating films in which all sorts of things are being thrown into spectators' faces.

Let me back up. In a recent Vanity Fair interview, Cameron spoke out publicly against "Piranha 3-D," calling it "an example of what we should not be doing in 3-D." Yeah, he wasn't particularly nice about it.

Now, "Piranha 3-D" producer Mark Canton is firing back, and you can read his incredibly long response below. I don't care about this silly feud at all, but I admit it's still quite amusing to see these guys fight.

‘Ramayan 3392 AD’ comes to big-screen

Mark Canton is set to produce the big-screen adaptation of Liquid Comics’ “Ramayan 3392 AD” for Mandalay Pictures, according to Variety.

The trade says John Collee is adapting the comicbook, based on epic Hindu poem about the adventures of legendary blue-skinned warrior Prince Rama, who fights to rescue his wife from the demon king who kidnapped her.

Collee’s credits also include “Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World” and “Happy Feet.” He also wrote the screenplay for Jon Amiel’s upcoming biopic “Creation,” which stars Paul Bettany as Charles Darwin.

Canton also produced “300” and “The Spiderwick Chronicles.” His upcoming projects include Alexandre Aja’s “Piranha 3-D” and Kevin Tancharoen’s remake of “Fame.”
