I re-watched Titanic (1997)

[TomC]

And I honestly cried SO much? I've never cried so much at a film, like I've seen it many times before, but not since I was much younger, and I never appreciated how truly harrowing the film is. Literally I was crying on and off for the last hour of the film.

Obviously the Rose & Jack love story "I'll never let go" thing is very sad. Like I cried when she let go, and it ties together so beautifully, even if cheesy at times. But what really set me off was all the screaming and panic? Musta been truly terrifying, and such an awful tragedy.

What gets me the most everytime is that final scene. (from her throwing the Heart of the Ocean into the sea to the credits). Christ, I was wailing.

[Gstar]

:worship: I thought I was the only one. This film is sob-worthy, such a beautiful love story.

[Wizard.]

The best part of the film is Rose risking her life to find an axe to cut off Jack's handcuffs and also when she's forced into the lifeboat and she's being strung down and she stares in Jack's eyes as she goes and she realises she would rather die with him than live without him so jumps back onto the Titanic :love:

[Gstar]

Omg I feel like watching it now but I’ll be an emotional wreck for the rest of the week :laugh:

yah lowkey regretting watching it, as my mood was looking up, but now Titanic and it's heartstring-pulling soundtrack are hanging over me :laugh:

I also shoulda said like it's so much more than a love/disaster film?


It's also about gender and class roles, being bound by social norms, and I also found the Rose ageing aspect really gut wrenching.

Omg I just remembered when she said 'he now exists only in my memory' and I've a lump in my throat

[Eddie.]

Never have cried so much in my life, never gets old...

Titanic and Romeo & Juliet have got to be the least interesting Leonardo DiCaprio Films out there imo.

I'm glad that people can enjoy them though, but Titanic in particular bizarrely grinds my gears.:laugh:

[Natalie.]

Such a great film
I think I'll re watch it the weekend now :laugh:

[Underscore]

I've watched it about 100 times and cried every time.

[Ammi]

....oops, I would cry if I was forced to re-watch Titanic...if someone said ..you either watch it or evil things will happen to your children, I would sob because that decision would be so hard..I’ll never forgive Rose for throwing that diamond in the sea when it could have changed the life of her granddaughter so much, or the life of others.../..evil, selfish Rose...maybe Jack saw that in her and would rather slip away than be with Rose...anyways, I’m glad you enjoyed the re-watch, Tom..:love:..

..:laugh:...yeah you can sit there and shout gayyyyyyyyyy but you want to be Rose again, I think....and you’re not fooling us that it’s not Rose from Titanic you’re thinking of, trying to side track us with Rose McGowan-ness..crikey, I hadn’t thought before, maybe you’re gayyyyyyyy as well...(..nothing wrong with being gay, as Arista would say..)...

[Crimson Dynamo]

gvfxbfdgfsg too soon

[Calderyon]

Very good special effects, but otherwise vastly and utterly overrated.

Didn´t deserve to win 11 Oscars.

[LukeB]

I don’t know how anyone can watch this for 3 hours :worry: talk about long

[Gstar]

Didn´t deserve to win 11 Oscars.

You’re right, it deserved more than that

[Calderyon]

You’re right, it deserved more than that

No it didn´t. Only Oscar it deserved was for Special Effects.

It´s still more deserving than Chicago in 2003, which i think was pure garbage.

[Morgan.]

People hate on me for liking this.

[Eddie.]

Never seen it

You should watch it someday. It's one of those movies you should see before you die...no offence

[Lostie!]

Couldn't care less about the Jack and Rose love story but there were so many other powerful scenes. The mother and baby, the woman tucking her kids into bed, the Strauses laying in bed as the water floods in, the musicians etc always leave an effect on me. Probably because they all better represent the reality of the tragedy. A fictional Hollywood romance as the centrepiece wasn't really needed tbh.

It's a shame they cut a scene with Ida Straus refusing to board a lifeboat without her husband since that's one of the most enduring accounts from the tragedy and would have added even more to the scene of them lying in bed together.

[LukeB]

Never seen it

You don’t want to imo, just read the plot and watch clips on youtube. Saves you 3 hours

All of this. And the old couple laying on the bed holding each other as the water starts to fill the room... I pretty much lose it at that point

Don't forget her hogging all the space on the door... talk about selfish!

Great film....obviously the love story was fabricated but it engulfed us with the harsh reality of what happened. Imagine the fear, the cold and imagine leaving your loved ones because there were not enough lifeboats...heart wrenching.

[Mystic Mock]

I don’t know how anyone can watch this for 3 hours :worry: talk about long

I personally agree with this, it's just a Romance Film that's living off a newsworthy story still to this day.

I know that not everything that I watch will appeal to everyone tbf, but Films with actual plot and action get snubbed at the Oscars for Films like this and I don't get it?

This....Jack and Rose were both annoying. The but that got me was the lady tucking her kids in as the boat sunk and telling the a story.

Dreadful film in general though, too long and focused on fictitious characters when there were so many interesting true stories from the Titanic

[hijaxers]

This was a truly diabolical film ,one of the most overrated of all time.

Sickly mush . Yukk

Don't forget her hogging all the space on the door... talk about selfish!

I'm sure someone actually mythbusted it too, and discovered conclusively that the door could easily have supported both of them if they jumped on at the same time from opposite sides :joker:. She flat out murdered him :fist:.

And even if you ignore that - the character of Jack is basically written as resourceful / a survivor... and he does find the door that saves her... SO if she had just stayed on the lifeboat, Jack would PROBABLY HAVE SURVIVED if he wasn't looking out for her, too, and they would have met up at the New York docks and lived happily ever after. "You're so stoopid Rose!"

Titanic: The Alternate Ending.

[user104658]

I was also reading that it's massively dramatised and the ship went down quite quietly in the end. It did crack in half but not at a huge angle up in the air, and there was a witness who said it was slowly going down as he was swimming away, and then when he looked back a few seconds later it had gone (no big suction pulling everyone down). Plus, he simply SWAM to the lifeboats after jumping from the ship and apparently several other people did too :think:

They did lmao I watched that too :laugh:

I think they had to strap a lifejacket underneath the door though so I'm not sure about easy, but if they'd have just spent a few minutes brainstorming ideas it could have ended so differently! :bawling:

[Josy]

I almost cried because they ruined a movie about a terrible tragedy with a pathetic love story

[Cal.]

Omg the lifeboat bit is the best :love:

She’s unable to stay but unwilling to leave </3

[Calderyon]

It is amazing how overrated a movie can be.

not overrated, best film ever, along with Batman Returns, oh I love the 90's

[Underscore]

You’re right, it deserved more than that
