Scott Manley has a one hour video going over all of this, including the ridiculous redaction of James Cameron providing expert testimony by first saying he directed The Abyss

    James Cameron is genuinely a world expert on submersibles. He made The Abyss and Titanic because he loves the deep sea

    He made Titanic solely as an excuse to go down to the Titanic and film the wreck. He didn't even have an idea for the story when he pitched the movie

    Then he became the first person to ever design and dive his own submersible to Chellenger Deep, and only the second ever submersible to reach that depth (after the US Navy's Trieste)
