I don't get the point you're making here. Cameron wrote Titanic, so that story and heart in the script is coming from him, and Titanic is absolutely packed with CGI as it is.

A Bay-directed Titanic would probably look like Pearl Harbor, because that's what Pearl Harbor was trying to be. And that movie made a fraction of the money and got much, much worse reviews.
