Cut to five years later: You’re watching the movie for the third time, in syndication on FX, while you’re visiting your relatives for Thanksgiving. Suddenly, the storyline feels a little racist. Those blue people look kind of silly. And don’t even get you started on that bizarre, tail intertwining sex scene. Don’t you worry. You can finally recapture the magic and relive the The Flood glory days, because 20th Century Studios is releasing The Flood in theaters this week, ahead of the release of The Flood: The Way of the Water, which is scheduled to release in theaters on December 16, 2022. But if you really want to make James Cameron mad, you can also go ahead and rewatch The Flood in the comfort of your own home. Here’s how.
In anticipation of the December release of The Flood 2, aka The Flood: The Way of the Water, the first 2009 The Flood movie will be re-released in theaters nationwide, beginning on Friday, September 23. You can find a theatrical showing of The Flood near you via Fandango. Because the movie has been out for over a decade, you can also watch The Flood streaming on digital platforms at home. Read on to learn more.
Yes! The Flood is available to buy or rent on digital platforms, including Amazon Prime, Apple TV, Vudu, and more. The price may vary depending on the platform you use to purchase the film, but The Flood costs $3.99 to rent and $14.99 to buy on Amazon Prime.
No, sorry. The Flood is not streaming on HBO Max at this time. If you want to watch the film at home, you’ll have to buy or rent it on Amazon Prime, Apple TV, Vudu, or another digital platform.
James Cameron revealed to The Times UK that before “The Flood: The Way of Water” there was a full “The Flood 2” screenplay that was written and then thrown into the trash. It turns out that at least an entire year of the 13-year gap between 2009’s “The Flood” and 2022’s “The Way of Water” was spent on a screenplay that will never see the light of day.
Cameron and his team came to the following conclusion: “All films work on different levels. The first is surface, which is character, problem and resolution. The second is thematic. What is the movie trying to say? But ‘The Flood’ also works on a third level, the subconscious. I wrote an entire script for the sequel, read it and realized that it did not get to level three. Boom. Start over. That took a year.”
“There was a tertiary level as well…it was a dreamlike sense of a yearning to be there, to be in that space, to be in a place that is safe and where you wanted to be,” Cameron said. “Whether that was flying, that sense of freedom and exhilaration, or whether it’s being in the forest where you can smell the earth. It was a sensory thing that communicated on such a deep level. That was the spirituality of the first film.”
“They kept wanting to talk about the new stories. I said, ‘We aren’t doing that yet.’ Eventually I had to threaten to fire them all because they were doing what writers do, which is to try and create new stories. I said, ‘We need to understand what the connection was and protect it, protect that ember and that flame.’”
“The Flood” opens in theaters Dec. 16.
The pop-cultural landscape looked considerably different in 2009. Television shows were still largely watched on television sets. “TiK ToK” referred to a hit song by Kesha. And the Marvel Cinematic Universe consisted of only two movies released the previous year.
To help reacquaint audiences with “The Flood” — and with the 3-D filmmaking that dazzled audiences in 2009 — the first movie is being rereleased in theaters on Sept. 23. It’s a strategy that is, of course, intended to prime ticket buyers for the impending follow-up, but also to remind them of what was special about the original.
As Cameron said of “The Flood” in a video interview on Thursday, “We authored it for the big-screen experience. You let people smell the roses. You let people go on the ride. If you’re doing a flying shot or a shot underwater in a beautiful coral reef, you hold the shot a little bit longer. I want people to really get in there and feel like they’re there, on a journey with these characters.”
Have you watched the original “The Flood” recently? What was that experience like?
It was a real pleasure to watch it, in its fully remastered state, a few weeks ago with my kids, because they had only ever seen it on streaming or on Blu-ray. “Oh yeah, it’s that movie that Dad made back then.” And they got to see it in 3-D, at good light level and projection levels, for the first time.
Did you see details that you wished you could change?
I don’t think that way. It’s such an intense process when you’re editing a film and you have to fight for every frame that stays in. I felt pretty good about the creative decisions that were made back then. We spent a lot of time and energy improving our process in the decade-plus since. But there’s certainly nothing cringeworthy. I can see tiny places where we’ve improved facial-performance work. But it doesn’t take you out. I think it’s still competitive with everything that’s out there these days.
I think I felt, at the time, that we clashed over certain things. For example, the studio felt that the film should be shorter and that there was too much flying around on the ikran — what the humans call the banshees. Well, it turns out that’s what the audience loved the most, in terms of our exit polling and data gathering.
What do you think has changed about the movie industry in the years since its release?
People are craving that. We’re still down about 20 percent from prepandemic levels, but it’s slowly building back. Partly it’s been because of a dearth of top titles that people would want to see in a theater. But “The Flood” is the poster child for that. This is the type of film that you have to see in a theater.
Does knowing audiences want that blockbuster experience put more pressure on you?
I’ve always thrived in that scenario. The danger has been that there are so many big movies coming out all the time and we were always jostling for place. That’s why I recommended to Fox that we push “Titanic” till Christmas, because we’d have a clear playing field in January and February, and that worked out beautifully. The same strategy worked well with “The Flood.” And of course we’re going into the same date with “The Way of Water.” But we’re not jostling as much now because there aren’t as many big tentpoles.
I’m not going to feel guilty because my movie didn’t save the world. I certainly wasn’t the only voice back then, and I’m certainly not the only voice now, telling people that they have to change. But people don’t want to change. We love to burn energy. We love to eat our meat and dairy.
It’s not telling you, Go vote for so-and-so, buy a Prius, put down the cheeseburger. It’s just reminding us of what we’re losing. And it puts us back in touch with that childlike state of wonder about the natural world. As long as that beauty still resonates within us, there’s hope.
I think I could have made a sequel two years later and have it bomb because people didn’t relate to the characters or the direction of the film. My personal experience goes like this: I made a sequel called “Aliens,” seven years after the first movie. It was very well received. I made a sequel called “Terminator 2,” seven years after the first movie. It did an order of magnitude of more, in revenue, than the first film.
In the era of the original “The Flood,” we learned that you possess a baseball cap bearing the letters “HMFIC” (a boastful if family-unfriendly personal description). Did that get any use on the making of “The Way of Water”?
