James Cameron Using BP (NYSE:BP) Disaster for Self-Promotion

Playing the role of being a rejected suitor, while at the same time promoting his "Avatar" film, James Cameron continues to take the opportunity to us BP (NYSE:BP) to promote himself and the movie, which is being re-released this weekend with additional footage.

This time around he expressed outrage that his proposals in the early part of the oil spill were rejected.

BP spokesman Robert Wine responded saying, "Lots of technologies were offered to us. They were thoroughly evaluate by a team of industry engineers. We did have some contact with James Cameron. His technologies were not suitable."

Cameron even tried to make a connection between his film and the oil spill, as if his film was based in any type of reality. Maybe too many deep sea dives Jim.

This is just another celebrity using the tragic circumstances as a chance to promote his film and make a ton more money, while positioning himself as a champion of a cause.
