James Cameron calls Oculus Rift a "Yawn", where moviemaking is involved.

I get where he is coming from.

From a Movie maker's PoV, to tell a story, VR bring very little to the table that a full immersive 3D wouldn't.

VR is about immersion and putting you inside a world, and then interacting/ moving in it.

It could be to gaming what Avatar's 3D was to experiencing a film, perhaps even more, but for a film (by nature not an interactive experience), it means very little, if anything at all.

So again from his point of view, yes, I get that VR is a bit of a yawn.

But then again, I'm not sure why he would be asked about VR in the first place...
