and has also surpassed The Force Awakens to become #4. 

Depending on how the Titanic Rerelease comes along, it will almost certainly best that movie as well to become #3. 

No matter how you slice it, there was a period in time when three out of the top 4 movies of all time were directed by James Cameron. 

"No cultural impact" My ass. I wonder if he can pull it off again with part 3. I hope so! 

Box office doesn't dismiss that criticism though.  The ongoing debate about whether Jack could/couldn't fit on the floating door with Rose perfectly illustrates that point with another Cameron movie.  Although I personally can't judge for myself, it's hard to tell if Way of Water has something like that.

yes it does. It absolutely does. Movies with 'no cultural impact' don't make 2 Billion at the box office and don't spawn sequels that also make that much money. 

It may not be cultural impact in the areas YOU frequent, but to pretend it had no impact is absurd. This is proof that the movie had staying power and impact, you just may not have seen it because it was a 'general audience' thing and not a nerdcore thing like Avengers or Star Wars. (To be clear this isn't a jab at Star Wars or Avengers, just an identification of the differences in the audiences)
