there is no reason on earth whatsoever for James Cameron to shoot a film @25fps when all FX houses and film equipment at the professional film industry level is designed and set up for 24fps. plus cinemas don't show stuff at 25fps. besides, he hasn't shot any other films at 25fps.
Well according to his commentary, he did shoot Aliens at 25fps to make better PAL transfers, which he (or maybe it was the technical guy on the commentary) describes as being "a better system than NTSC". And there's no reason a cinema can't show 25fps movies.
