Default Titanic made of Balloons! <3

omg. :')

In a shopping centre in town today, look what they've put up for Titanic's Anniversary:

this morning..
Spoiler:




tonight..
Spoiler:




I wanna burst it with a pin.

But seriously though everywhere you go there's Titanic Festivals and stuff being held everywhere, it literally feels like you're off for 'The Titanic Holidays' or something rather than Easter.

Another advertising scheme to try get you to go see a movie you've already seen and probably have on DVD.

More of Celebration of the fact Titanic was made here, rather than trying to promote a silly James Cameron film..

Yea, what a surprise they do it a couple of days before titanic comes out in cinemas again. Not to do with the film at all.

Well I suppose the film couldn't possibly be scheduled for the 100th anniversary of the Titanic incident. That's just too logical.

Erm no.

Titanic sank on 15th April 1912 so Ireland are remembering her in the weeks run up to that date and obviously to attract tourists to Ireland

Titanic the film is being re-released for the 100th anniversary aswell but over the easter period for obvious reasons.

James Cameron doesnt have to put balloons outside River Islands on high streets all over Ireland for attention lol.

Titanic was buillt in Ireland so Its part of irish heritage and thats why they are there.

The film is the only thing that makes people care though. Without the film the Titanic would be no where near as remembered or famous. I bet that balloon this has been paid for in order to advertise the film more anyway.

Are you kidding me? Yes, the film helped some people remember it, but to say that it wouldn't be as remembered is ridiculous. It was a major event and it is coming up to the 100 year anniversary.

Not kidding at all. Yes people would remember slightly, but without the film it really wouldn't be discussed much other than in a history classroom in schools. The majority of the general public 100 years on wouldn't care if it hadn't been majorly publicised through a film.

It was a massive turning point in history, what are you talking about?

And you could probably try and argue that in America - they wouldn't make such a big deal about it if it wasn't for the Hollywood film, but here it's just because it the ship was made here, and that's that?

FGS, do you think no one knew what the Titanic was, no one spoke about it, learnt about it, there were no documentaries or tv shows made about it prior to 1997?
