Draw me, George & Simone!

Wow wasn’t expecting this!

Jon

... Titanic? .......... seriously ? lol...... well........ ok then

djKENTO

Oh hell yeah. I just picked up the 3D copy on blu-ray for mad cheap!

MatthewBrown74m

WAIT WHAT??!!!! Omg I knew you guys talked about it but that's was a long time ago

dieselbeast

Shut the front Door! Dropping a juggernaut on this Thursday morning lol I'm here for it!

Kasa

Didn't see that coming

Martin

George must have lost a bet.

Mark McKeown

I only knew this was coming because you 'leaked' it in your strike video when you showed your list of recent videos =]

sarCC

Neat!

Astraeos

Welp. I already woke up feeling like crying, might as well just jump straight the fuck in lol. I'm not really getting the hate for this movie in the comments. It's truly fantastic, in pretty much every possible way. It's an amazing period piece, about a truly wondrous piece of machinery that fell victim to mans hubris. And all the human drama that goes with it is just awesome. The musicians choosing to play as the ship sinks and people die around them, the captain staying with the helm, the old couple lying in bed together, the mother with her children trapped, there's just so much heartbreaking, true to life moments that actually happened.

Brian's Dog

Billy Zane! So underrated.

Den Radar Ryan

121 Titanic victims are buried 5 minutes away from me. One grave is also marked 'J. Dawson' who was an Irishman that worked in the Titanic boiler room during the tragedy and not Leonardo DiCaprio's fictional character, however visitors have been putting flowers on the grave since 1997 thinking it was the real grave of the character. Always makes watching the movie far more powerful. 👀♥️🚢

christopher b swanson

Simone asks jokingly what if it didn't hit................ That the crazy part, if it hits head on they don't sink, it was the effort to avoid it that killed them

christopher b swanson

I agree with George, have hated the necklace drop at the end since 98................and other George commentary was on set pieces, this movie filmed now would suck with CGI, but then, all sets, the little things now they change with a button, back then it took them 11 days to get the sunset shot they wanted............but realism with sets stands test of time, sinking is so good to watch

Rayna & Mike Sitter

Yes, the binoculars was a real thing. There was a change in first officer before the ship left, and the guy who was originally supposed to be the first officer and had the key to the locker that had the binoculars in it left the ship and forgot to hand the key over to the new guy. Evidently Captain Smith wanted his own man as first officer and made the change.

I've seen people talk about that. I saw a so-called Engineer say that a direct head on collision would have certainly resulted in them sinking. However, I am not an engineer, so I cannot comment on whether its true or not.

punterjoe

He reportedly puts his actors (and crew) through hell, but no one can deny that James Cameron is VERY good at his job. This film is his baby from script to screen - and there isn't a faltering moment in it. I don't know if the orchestra story is true or just an urban legend - I think the same scenario was used in a former Titanic film "A Night To Remember" (both films featured Bernard Fox - best known as Dr Bombay in Bewitched). I think Cameron stayed true to facts in the big picture, filling in all the details with his captivating script & characters. This isn't his first 'love story'. If you don't count Terminator, that might be 'The Abyss'. If you really want to see his range, compare any of these epics to "True Lies" - an over the top near-satire of Hollywood Action Movies. AND a helluva lot of fun!

Steve Mercier

Ahhhh, Kate Winslet...here my one-sided love affair began.

MoonageDaydream

Holy crap I literally said to myself like 2 days ago “I hope Cinebinge watch Titanic someday” Can’t wait for this!

ChickensAreRacist

Oh yeah that set was real. I think it was filmed off some harbor in Mexico. At the time my local news (SoCal) showed footage from a distance from a helicopter of how big the set was and they were speculating and impressed by the scale.

Guillermo Antonio Ricci Alvarez

The old couple, the Kathy Bates character and the musicians are based on real people who were in the Titanic and that's exactly what happened to them. The family of the musicians were later charged to pay for the cloth they had. Almost the entire movie is how it happened except for Jack and Rose.

Prof. Writhms

George, you said it must have been a "nightmare" to shoot this movie, because of all the water? You really need to see James Cameron's "The Abyss".

>>121797319

you say that like you're skeptical about a bomb-ass movie

Odd Thomas

I'm going to call it right now: emotional finale, Simone in floods of tears, George frowns: "What? Why didn't Jack just do THIS" lol

MatthewBrown74m

Just watch the reaction.......Thank you both for making me watch this again..💗💗💗 this was my first romance film

Adam Wetstein

i like everything but Celine Dion songs

gobmob2000

There are a few myths in the film. The whole thing about White Star Line not caring about passenger safety is completely untrue. The titanic was considered to be one of the safest ships of the time and although they did not have enough lifeboats for each passenger, neither did any other ship, but the titanic had an unusually high number of lifeboats for the time. White Star Line was very much concerned with passenger safety and they went above and beyond what was expected for ships of the day going even beyond what was required by the British Board of Trade. The idea that they locked the gates because of class reasons and so they could not escape is also unsubstantiated. Although the gates where locked, they where locked throughout the journey, before the sinking, this was due to American Immigration laws (a lot of third class people where immigrants), the american government demanded it to let the Titanic dock in New York, Coincidentally, gates where not locked when other ships where going to other ports in other countries and according to a British inquiry, many gates where opened to allow the passengers to escape on the titanic. The whole thing with Bruce Ismay, the president of the company is also largely not true, most reports of witnesses actually say that he helped many passengers into lifeboats before he got into one himself, and there are a lot of reports that he entered a lifeboat reluctantly after one of the officers demanded that he do so. The historian that James Cameron hired for the film himself says that the film portrays Bruce Ismay rather unfairly and makes a villein out of him when he probably wasn't one. Will Murdoch was also done dirty, he did not shoot anyone and was actually a confirmed hero, and helped many passengers escape. James Cameron is kind of obsessed nowadays with manufactured, over the top, drama, ever since titanic his films have basically been about upper vs lower class, rich vs poor etc And its so cringe (although he did tone it down in Alita Battle Angel and the fillm was not half bad, you guys should react to it).I much prefer James Cameron films before Titanic then after.

Michael Robayo

You guys rock. This film is a masterpiece. I remember going to watch it in theaters in 97 five times. This film was a genuine phenomenon and still is. So emotional. But I also think James Cameron always has emotional and moving moments and characters in his movies, even if they are sci-fi/action films. That's what makes his films stand out. They built the entire ship set that they could raise and lower to their liking. They built the set along the coast so that the water could be seen in the background. This and Return of the King were the last real great epic blockbusters.

Spacedone

Still a bit miffed that this beat the likes of LA Confidential or Good Will Hunting to win Best Picture.

>>121828848

I'm more pissed about Elliott Smith losing out to Celine Dion for best original song

Krylo

Kate Winslet revealed recently that James Cameron is the one who is doing the art/drawing of Rose; so those are his hands not Dicaprio's

akaTheBARON

🖤 Apparently the footage of the Titanic wreckage used in the beginning is of the real Titanic. Most of it at least. Fun fact about me is, it's my dream to own a boat and name it "The Tightanic" cuz like.... it's tight... And I'd throw parties and be like 'this boat is tight right? Look at how tight this boat is" and people would just roll their eyes but put up with it because of the free booze. The parties would sort of have an "anything goes" vibe but any "I'm king of the world" stuff won't fly... not on my boat.

Odd Thomas

You guys should watch Heavenly Creatures. It's Peter Jackson directing Kate Winslet in her first (major) movie

Odd Thomas

Funny you mention Cameron needing to prove himself before the studios let him gamble on Titanic; that's exactly what happened. There were numerous reports Titanic was over budget, Cameron was a bully etc etc. A fired crew member even spiked the food with PCP. The media literally were expecting it to be the biggest bomb of all time - so when the first reviews came in and people were shocked to find not only was it good, it was AMAZING, it caught the public completely off guard, and the rest is history. Always bet on James Cameron is the moral of the story.

Terry Yelmene

For me, this is the film that is arguably the MOST EPIC of all the great classics. Time after time 'Titanic' never really gets old on re-watch, but was made even better when these two are reacting! - (Simone's distruss notwithstanding) IMHO, this is the perfect movie... well almost...

hurryupmode

I saw this in theaters when I was 11. But at that age, my friends and I were cynical, uncomfortable with romance, and just made fun of the Rose and Jack melodrama partially due to being bombarded by the subsequent hype-train zeitgeist that took over American popculture and the boost to Celine Dion's career. The film became a joke to us. You couldn't fucking escape this movie or hearing "My Heart Will Go On" fucking OVER AND OVER on the radio and in malls. It was nonstop. However, as an adult I definitely appreciate how effective and affective the film was at depicting classism, and also the disaster itself with the moment to moment chaos that ensued and loss of human life.

Listen to your friend Billy Zane. He's a cool dude. He's trying to help you out.

Monica Alarcon

I've been watching these at work lately but today I had to stop right before the iceberg hits... I wanted to watch the rest without interruption from people demanding medical attention and stuff (how inconsiderate, I know) and because I KNEW I was going to be like a river of tears by the end... this brings up a lot of memories... thank you...

TokyoLopez

favorite part of this was the cat asmr lmao jk it was all of it, but also the cat asmr, like it but can’t believe the love story wasn’t real after when people told me

Logan Kerlee

This reaction was great! I'm very happy that you both did this one! I really enjoyed it. Saw this in theaters back in 97, when I was 9 years old. Craziness! I have no idea how my bladder held strong for that length of time as a kid! I had to pause twice during this. Amazing reaction, the both of you. :) Thanks for doing it!

Shonnicus

Great YouTube vid called "Titanic REAL TIME SINKING - *HISTORIAN EDITION* based on the book "On A Sea of Glass" A couple of real time vids but I like this one with just text describing the event. It's very quiet and thus eerie.

Actuarial Lurker

The ship's captain is of course the King of the Rohirrim from LOTR

Powerful film. Not much else to say. There is a reason it made so much money.

REDR58
>>121854662

The making of information behind this movie is almost as interesting as the movie itself.

REDR58
>>121846932

I didn’t see this movie for the first time until a few years ago although at the time it came out (I was in college) I remember it was a huge cultural moment, sort of like Batman 1989, but of course it made a lot more money.

Christian Rennie

Thank to you both! It's been long, LONG time since I watched this one. I did see it in the theater opening weekend, and then, maybe a couple times after that within the 10 years after, but not after that. The only part I don't like is the old Rose trolling Paxton's character at the beginning, "....have you found the heart of the ocean yet..." Yeah the end is bad for me too. She could have just told him the story and given the heart to him or a museum. But the trolling is a little annoying. Maybe if she just said, "The Heart of the Ocean isn't on Titanic."

Lola Lirola

Some of the references sound very silly, but they would have actually been contemporary! Freud's books didn't get English translations until 1909, barely three years before Titanic. Picasso had just started to rise to fame in 1907. And suffragettes started to organize for women's vote around 1906. And, even though the mom saying that "the purpose of Uni being to find a husband...", for women, it actually kinda was. They weren't allowed to work anyway, even if they graduated, so they truly only attended to meet educated men, and to "polish themselves" to participate in social dinners. Women who worked were usually lower class, and being a seamstress usually meant perpetually circling poverty. LM Alcott actually has a book detailing her various autobiographical jobs (governess, old lady caregiver, seamstress, hat maker, laundry), and she describes her treatment as truly dire.

Lola Lirola

"...And the band played on" is both a testament to human resilience and commitment and purpose, but also a show of how in denial everyone was to their impending fate, and the frivolity of having entertainment to distract people while the world drowns. It's now become an expression used for when governments bury their heads in the sand and don't respond to social crises on time. It was popularized because of a documentary about the hiv epidemic in the 80s titled that.

Lola Lirola

Loved this reaction! I also liked that you did it even though Simone had (kinda) already seen it. I hadn't rewatched it in well over a decade, and I was impressed at how well it all holds up. I cried so much! Also, there was a moment right at the end where the music was quiet, and you both were sobbing, and I was sobbing too, and the sound of your company made me smile. So, so much of this film is taken from actual facts of the time in general, and the Titanic in particular: - The underwater shipwreck footage is all real. Cameron went down himself! - The mirror and butterfly hair comb are replicas of ones recovered from the actual shipwreck. Apparently, Cameron also made replicas of the dining china, linens, the filigrees on the doors... all of it is quite exact. - The dogs on deck are the very same breeds of the ones in photographs of the deck. - The children playing with spinners and the people waving at departure, same, there are famous real pictures of it from the time - Also the people playing with the ice on deck right after the iceberg hit! That's also been documented. - The couple that died together in bed, real too; they were the owner of Macy's, Isidore Strauss, and his wife Ida. He was offered a place in the boats because of his powerful status, but he refused because he said they should just board more women. His wife also refused to leave without him. (The rescue numbers are slightly incorrect, though: two boats returned, but only managed to rescue four people alive, not six.) I love that this movie takes its time to show every part of the ship and honor the workers of the Titanic. And yes, the fade/morphs with the wreckage make it all so much more poignant. That iconic kiss scene into the dissolve of the shipwreck, with them still showing there, is goosebumps guaranteed. The one that really moves me to tears is when Victor Garner adjustes the time on the clock, and when the Captain decides to get behind the steer. And the low noises of the boat breaking. Because for me the movie is all about finding the human stories among the cold data of news and History. It's about a director who devoted years of his Life to going down to the wreckage of the Titanic, but didn't really "get it" until he focused on the people in it. It is an ode to craftsmanship, both in trade professions and in filmmaking, and to people caring about things, and about noticing the details.

Lola Lirola

And all the James Cameron gossip you asked for! So, he was married to Kathryn Bigelow, the Hurt Locker director, from 1989 to 1991. She was doing Point Break at the exact same time he was doing T2, and I would have loved to be a fly in their wall at that time. Then he married Linda Hamilton from 1997 to 1999, but they had started their relationship while filming T2. To the question Simone had about how in love he was while writing this: He was actually kinda separating/estranging from Linda Hamilton when he wrote Titanic. Linda said in an interview that he was always "more in love with Sarah Connor than [her] real self" and that their marriage never really gelled. I think he was imagining a romantic story because he wasn't living one. He's now (since 2000) married to Suzy Amis, the 'granddaughter' character in this! They met during this shooting, while he was still married to Linda. He... has a pattern, I guess. But also, great taste in women, I have to give him that.

Lola Lirola
>>121851873

I have watched one of those! It's so eerie. And also it weirdly feels *slow*. Like, once you know that there's absolutely no chance, and that you're going to sink, there's two hours of just inevitability encroaching you.

Patrick

This movie reminds me of the bill burr bit where he claims that only women think this film is romantic, but to guys it'd s horror movie...because all the guys died. "Women and children first!!?? WELL WHAT ABOUT ME!!?" Random : There's a funny scene in Entourage where James Cameron is standing in line at the Sundance Film Festival and some fangirl is going into depth about why he created Titanic, and totally overthinking everything. And James just says "No, I just wanted to make little girls cry."

Patrick

Funny how the rating systems have changed. This was pg13 and had full front nudity. My friend's parents were super conservative and asked for a refund in the theater when this came out haha

Trevor S Bright

"Why do men make more than women? Because in some hypothetical scenario where we're both on the Titanic, for some f-ed up reason you get to leave and I have to stay!!"

Steve H

I remember while watching in the theater, when the water entered into Jack's room, especially frightening.

Raven Dark

So, the guy who grabbed the kid from Jack and Rose and pushed them away--I think he freaked out at them because people sometimes try to use kids to get out of bad situations like this, kind of like Cal did, and that's what he thought they were doing with his kid. Had they been just using him to get onto a lifeboat, he would see it as kidnapping. Yes, the band staying on the sinking ship and staying behind instead of escaping is based on a real thing that happened on The Titanic. The Simpsons made a joke about it, but it was real. It's a small detail, but I always wondered if the priest who was praying on the ship as it sank, ministering to the frightened passengers was real. I wonder if he was a real person who did that, like the band that kept playing. I always get goosebumps when I see that he's holding some of their hands tight to keep them from falling. You can see he's using all of his strength to hold onto them as it happens, to the point where he can barely get the words out, and he still keeps praying. Accurate or not, it's a wonderful and heart-wrenching touch. It's a lot of the small, but accurate details in the movie, real ones based on the actual events, that always evoke a special kind of awe and a sense of realism. Like the rats running down the hall, rushing away from the water, and people following them, using them as a guide to find the way out. The couple that stays in their bed, holding each other while the ship goes down. The use of real footage of the sunken Titanic in the modern day parts of the film. And in a far more chilling way, the panic and fear of the people as the ship sinks, and the portrayal of the way people jumped off, often to their deaths rather than wait for it to go down. George, I see what you're saying about Rose dropping the diamond in the ocean at the end, but to me it makes sense. I get the history attached to the necklace, but consider the ugliness and the memories that are associated with it for her, and who she would have had to hand it over to. Who would have gotten the credit for finding it and get a lot of cash for it. Young Rose hated a lot of her life before Jack, and much of what she disliked about it was due to the status and money she and her family had. The diamond would have felt like an embodiment of that, like the lock on her cage. Plus, Cal gave it to her. He was cruel and abusive. He was the one with the key to another cage she would have ended up in had she married him. Near the start of the movie, she said it was a dreadful thing she never wore after her time on the ship. She also has the memory of wearing it for Jack while he drew her, which is a powerful moment, but he also died this horrible death, so the diamond is associated with that as well. On top of that, we saw that Bill Paxton's character (I forget his name in the film), was a money-grabbing, greedy ass who only cared about his payday. It would have been him she handed it to, and he who got all the glory for finding it, even if she was the one who gave it to him. At the end of the film, we see him talking to that one woman about how until now, he never "got it," about the Titanic, never let it in. We see in his expression and his delivery that her story changed him, and he's fallen under the ship's spell like so many others. We know he's changed, but she didn't see that. She doesn't know. Knowing that, her leaving the diamond in the ocean feels like a moment that's both powerful and bittersweet, and a little sad for me. But in a way, it also feels hopeful, because in letting the diamond go, she set herself truly free. Fantastic reaction, you two. You are two of my favorite reactors, and I've stayed with you even when lack of funds have forced me to let go of other reactors. This. This is why.

FranciscoGios

Well George you just reacted to the first movie that STARTED the 1.000 Billion Club that’s 2.194$ Billion Dollars actually, the second one Avatar(2009) that made 2.923$ so that makes James Cameron the ONLY producer to have made three movies that made over 1 Billion, his third one being Avatar 2(2022) 2.024$. Congratulations!

Jesse Coombs

James Cameron's personal life is all over the map. He's been married 5 times! He was married to Kathryn Bigelow (director of Point Break!), Linda Hamilton, and Suzy Amis (the actress who played the daughter of Rose in Titanic.).

REDR58

Winslet was 20 years old when filming started and DiCaprio was 21. Gloria Stuart (older Rose) was 87. https://titanicfacts.net/titanic-maiden-voyage/ “2,825 miles – the intended distance of the longest leg of the voyage, from Queenstown to New York, USA. 137 hours – the anticipated journey time sailing from Queenstown to New York City.”

Daniel Simmons

Survival was less about class, and more about gender. Majority of women, including those in third class, survived. About 75% total. If you were a man, you were pretty much screwed as less than a quarter of men overall survived. This is the first time I've watched this movie in years and, while it's still good, I don't find it nearly as enjoyable as I used to. I don't really like the fact that there is the whole "romance, evil rich guy, evil henchman" story taking center stage of an actual event where real people lost their lives. Bothers me a lot more than it used to.

Opti_Frog

Titanic never feels three hours long. There are parts that are easy to be cynical about and make fun of, but this is still impressively epic filmmaking and top class entertainment. And no one except the ones making it really believed in this film. Predictions were that it would, like the ship, be a disaster. Instead it became the highest grossing movie of all time. And not by a little. The previous record holder was Jurassic Park, and Titanic pulled in more than twice of what JP did. Titanic is still the 4th highest grossing film ever made.

p0sthum4n

Hard for me to articulate what it is exactly but the idea of the Titanic wreck creeps me the fuck out. It's just down there, surrounded by so much impossibly deep, empty ocean. Surrounded by a huge extended field of debris that spilled out of the ship as it sank. You could be floating on the surface of the ocean and straight down beneath you is just this horrendous graveyard. Experts estimate that by the 2030s, the wreck will have mostly disintegrated.

Vwlss Nvwls

I remember how much everyone built up this movie when it came out, and I took off work early to go with my wife to see it. I was fully disappointed in how unremarkable it was. Sure they did a lot to make things like the original ship, and they built a large scale ship to actually sink, but I was so bored I fell asleep in the middle. It was an okay, one time watch movie, but I never understood the phenomenon everyone made it out to be. Same thing happened with Avatar, which to this day I still have not watched the second half of because I was so bored with it. Other than those two movies I love everything else that James Cameron has done, but I will never understand how Titanic and Avatar seem so great to everyone. Just my opinion I guess.

Vwlss Nvwls
>>121869447

I am right there with you, and Dances with Wolves would be a much better way to spend time. I also watch Seven Samurai at least once a year, which is a much better three hour watch as well.

Vwlss Nvwls
>>121866486

It is a rather haunting realization, and it is hard not to think about the event and people when it happened, as well as the watery graveyard they now reside in. But honestly I would rather watch a four hour documentary than watch this movie again, because it would be far more interesting in my opinion.

MikeBdrx
>>121873061

Right there with you. I don’t get it either but to each their own I guess.

It was a privilege to watch along with you two. I've always loved this movie, your reaction was excellent. I'm a gooey mess rn lol. Thanks guys.

JP11
>>121834429

This is not a recent reveal lol. It basically came out that it was Cameron drawing that picture while it was still in theatres. So about 25 years ago

Tinfoilnation

It may have already been mentioned but... as the resident repository of Useless Trivia I feel compelled to point out - the sketch of Rose was drawn by James Cameron, in near real time. That's his hand you see in all the shots of the drawing being made and yes, Kate Winslet was modeling it for him at the time.

Ricardo Alanis

The production is really a great story and mix of emerging CGI technology (cold breath was created realistically for the first time), a slightly scaled down version of a huge portion of the ship to practically do the scenes of the sinking. The guy that helped Rose get up toward the end is based on a real baker who helped save a lot of people, survived, and was actually in another sinking and survived again.

JP11

The characters of Jack and Rose, as well as her family, Cal, and Lovejoy, are fictional. Every one else in this movie is a real life person. Most of the things that happen, like the fate of the officers (most of them anyways), as well at Thomas Andrews, and Bruce Ismay (the owner of the white star line) are based on the historical archives. Cameron basically nailed most things completely accurately with this movie (creative licence for dialogue and minor storylines not withstanding). People like to complain about Camerons writing, and some of the complaints are valid, but this film is a masterpiece. Also, the sinking scenes were done with a full set (about a 2/3 scale to the real ship) and it was sunk in a huge water tank.

Ben

This movie, it's hard to place for me, on the one hand, the elements that are good are really good, the sets, the effects, the music... so much good stuff! But the parts that aren't so good...are really bad! The absolute worst of it though is taking the names of real people, who lost their lives, and representing them as villains or cowards just for the sake of drama, that really taints this film. On the whole I can't say I dislike this film, because there is so much of it I do like, but I would prefer to see a heavily edited version of it, you could cut so much out of this and make it a far better film.

REDR58

Watch The Poseidon Adventure from 1972 for another good ship-at-sea disaster movie. Not quite on this scale, but it’s very well done.

Michael Bourke

The guy with the mustache that Simone recognised was the egyptologist in the Mummy, oddly I think the guy who sat next to him at dinner was also in the Mummy ( the British pilot ). A great cast across the board even in small roles, one of the ships crew played Mr Fantastic in two marvel movies and Cal's man Lovejoy has been in a ton of movies including Tron and the Omen ( and he voiced the villain in Baldurs Gate 2 )

Forrest Tanaka
>>121912881

I love this movie, but seeing Bruce Ismay as cowardly and stealing aboard a lifeboat, Captain Smith as indecisive, William Murdoch murdering someone before killing himself, is all a bit painful. Or the steerage passengers being locked behind gates, or trying to set a speed record. It’s great cinema, and historical fiction.

Brendan Rafferty

Actress Jenette Goldstein played the red headed Irish mother in steerage class who, as the ship is sinking, tucks her small children into bed and tells them a fairytale. You have seen her in two other classic rolls in two other James Cameron films Terminator 2: she plays John Connor’s foster mom who famously (as the terminator) kills her milk drinking husband with her knife arm Aliens: she played tough talking short haired Colonial Marine machine-gunner Private Vasquez (“Let’s rock!”)

Juley
>>121857792

His marriages tend to end in a lot of acrimony. It was well known that it was really bad with Katherine Bigelow because of his cheating. At the 2010 Oscars, Avatar was up for best directing and best picture. Katherine Bigelow won best director and best picture for Hurt Locker that year. There was an interesting tension in the room the whole evening.

Joey Johnson

So glad you guys watched this! Also, just to share another (somewhat morbid) detail, which I remembered when George made a comment about the survivors on the boats hearing the screams afterwards. Apparently at least one of the survivors reported that he/she couldn’t go to any sporting events for a long time afterwards since the cheering crowd triggered them of how it sounded after the titanic sank

Huckleberry lobo

Did Bruce Almighty ruin Titanic for you guys? 😆

Ph4ZeD

Loved the reaction guys and it's great to see it doing so well on Youtube!

DarthChef

Back on the mid 90's I was living in San Diego and would regularly ride my bike south of Rosarito, Mexico, which is near the US/Mexico border. Along the coast there is where they built a studio and the Titanic that they used for filming. It was capable of being sunk and raised and was a 90% scale replica, so yes, those shots of people running the length of the boat is a practical shot. I would take pictures of the boat every time I rode by it and actually chronicled its construction at various stages. I just though it was strange that a ship was being built in such a weird place. I didn't realize until after the movie came out what I had actually witnessed. Alas, the camera I used to take those pictures was damaged a long time ago. Many of the extras that worked on the movie came from the San Diego/Southern California region.

My favorite quote by Simone in this reaction was, as stated, ‘Fuck, fuck, fuck-fuck-fuck’.

we hear you, the closing song is a nice send off.

I loved that you can hear Simone‘s cat (Luna?) purring in the first part of the video. I found it very soothing.

Before Kathryn Bigelow, he was married to Gale Ann Hurd, who was a producer driving force behind the Terminator movies and The Abyss. As with all his other wives (except Amis, maybe), he cheated and the marriage ended.

The young crew member who goes back to save Rose is Ioan Gruffudd, of Fantastic Four, Great Expectations, "Forever," and the wonderful Hornblower movie series. Lovejoy was played by the terrific character actor David Warner (The Omen, Time Bandits, Time After Time, etc.), who just passed away this past year.

Intimacy coordinators to help actors manage nude or sex scenes didn't become common until after MeToo, so mainly over the last 5-6 years. I grew up on sailboats thanks to my Navy dad, and there is nothing as joyous as dolphins following or leading the boat, playing in the bow waves or the wake. It's just as wonderful as it is in the film here. "I'll be goddamned" is what Brock says on finding Rose's sketch (and what Rose says when she sees it on TV). It is also the exact line spoken by Dr. Robert Ballard when he found the wreckage in real life. The young crew member who goes back to save Rose is Ioan Gruffudd, of Black Hawk Down, Fantastic Four, Great Expectations, "Forever," and the wonderful Hornblower movie series. Lovejoy was played by the terrific character actor David Warner (The Omen, Time Bandits, Time After Time, etc.), who just passed away this past year.

The first time I saw this movie was during a movie night with my extended family. I said something along the lines of, "I wonder how far into the movie the Titanic will sink." My aunt and my cousin both started screaming at me about spoilers and refused to watch the movie at all. To this day, every time the Titanic is mentioned in any way, I think about that and just... 🤦‍♀️

In the movie, the diver gets the budget to explore Titanic like he wants by selling his anonymous backers on the one of a kind diamond. In reality I imagine Cameron got the budget for this (the most expensive movie ever made at that point) where he got to film people in water more than he ever had since The Abyss, by selling a romance story to the studio. Just cause it would be funny. If you want some real history that's actually nicer than depicted in the movie, you can look up the RMS Carpathia, the first ship that made it to the wreck and saved those who did survive. There's some amazing feats of sailing and compassion in that story.

Simone, are you also only happy when it rains?

Holy crap, how did I not recognize her in Terminator! Now that you say that, I see it.

I get it, but also: it's her necklace. She's allowed to do with it as she pleases, and if she wants it to stay under the ocean that's her right.

Apparently there's some debate about what the band played at the end. The movie clearly chose Nearer My God to Thee, but apparently some people think it was another song that wouldn't make nearly as much sense as a literal hymn.

I watched this in the theater when I was 17 and once or twice since then. I remember the lineup at the theater being crazy as it went halfway through the mall. Since then, I've walked by (and many times driven by) the cemeteries in my capital city, so watching them this time felt a little different. Halifax has two (and a bit of a third) graveyards dedicated to those who lost their lives in this disaster. A little more than five and a half years later, there was the largest man-made, non-nuclear bomb explosion in history, in Halifax Harbour. Thankfully, none of the Titanic graves were disturbed.

Some of this was certainly said already, but two lifeboats came back. Molly Brown (Kathy Bates) successfully convinced the other passengers to return, unlike the film. She's definitely worth researching, for she was a serious philanthropist and activist for so many different causes. Amazing woman. The man depicted beside Jack and Rose on the railing of the ship as it sank, drinking, is based on a real person, Charles Joughin. He was the chief baker aboard and helped a great deal of people to survive, and it's greatly believed he himself survived due to being intoxicated and the alcohol helping keep him warm, though this is debated. The scene where Jack sneaks on deck to see Rose and steals the coat is inspired by an actual photo from the Titanic (taken by Francis Browne), including the stolen coat seen on a chair in the background. I was twelve when this came out and I remember sobbing in the theatre throughout the second half once the sinking kicked in. Such a huge and horrible tragedy.
