I definitely would like to see a TF film by Cameron.

Nah...too "dramatic"

And it would be a beat-for-beat match for "The Iron Giant" or some random 1960s book.

I'll pass. It will be a cold day in hell before I watch anything directed by James Cameron, and that includes any Transformers movies he directs.

It's been discussed before, but meh, not all that interested.

I'd watch it in a heartbeat, but we'd need strong writers to slap his hands away from the type writer. He's good, but better with peer review and either Arnold, Sigourney or the late Stan Winston to tell him when he's got a shit idea.

I wouldn't like it, most of Cameron's films have a distinct anti-technology feel to them

(Alien = Go into space, get eaten, Terminator = Robots kill everyone, Titanic = Get on a boat, you drown, Avatar = Have advanced tech, you're evil)

I can see him doing it kind of badly

The only thing that keeps me from wanting a Cameron-directed TF movie is that it would most assuredly look good but he's not exactly known for having characters that have personality anymore (he hasn't has well-written characters with any kind of depth since True Lies). Titanic and Avatar, anyone?

For all the gripes against Bay, the TFs have some personality in the flicks (whether you like what he infused them with is a whole different conversation) and Bay has a far more energetic style than Cameron. Cameron has gotten lazy in his shot selection, a lot of his shots and setups are the same ones he pulled 30 years ago in his first movie.
