TITANIC (1997) PART 1 | FIRST TIME WATCHING | MOVIE REACTION

Comments

That would be another great OLD movie for Jay and Amber to watch. The Unsinkable Molly Brown 1964. It tells one character's backstory and the Titanic story from another perspective. Debbie Reynolds was amazing. But fair warning...it IS a musical.

Given how much Amber likes Horror/thriller movies, Alien/Aliens will definitely be right up her alley. Jay will enjoy it too. Those movies would be a nice mix of Scott and Cameron. Then they could watch some other Scott movies....specifically that one that starts with G.

A studio gamble that paid off for sure. Fox and Paramount were totally spooked by the final cost, and there was much pressure to edit it down from it's long runtime to up theater turnover. But it seems betting against James Cameron to make your money back is a bad one, and this film raked it in. And the film "had legs", as they say, as it stayed in the theaters forever. I didn't see it until months after release, and the theater was still packed. Probably one of the longest theatrical runs of modern times. And that's all before you get to what they made on the music end of the deal with James Horner and Celine Dion's big hit song that was forever on the radio in those days. It was pop culture synergy that doesn't come along often and just added to the atmosphere of the film being a cultural event.

James Cameron is a deep sea enthusiast, and has dived down to the Titanic site himself. I think more than once. His passion for the subject really shines through in how he tried to bring that boat and the people on it to life. I'm not always crazy about his writing, but the dude delivers on spectacle without fail, and he serves it up nicely here. And yes, the White Star Line billed the Titanic as "unsinkable". So the irony that it would sink on its maiden voyage has forever marked it as a poster child of human hubris. Oh, and as for how rats get on ships, the answers are too numerous to count but a couple I've seen myself: in cargo containers, or crawl along the mooring ropes to the boat while it's docked. I actually used to work with a woman who did some crew work for this movie. The film was behind schedule and over budget, so they had multiple units working. Most historical dramas would have 2 shooting groups, or 3 tops. She was working on "Unit H" or some crazy thing like that as they worked around the clock to get shots of flooding hallways and stuff. Apparently it was a nightmarish experience of being cold and wet for 12 or more hours a day. "Tough shoot" is an understatement.

Aliens is the Cameron movie I'd like them to watch, but... got to do Alien before that will work. They really need to get around to that soon-ish, I would think. Or any Ridley Scott film, for that matter.

To give you an idea of far & fast the Titanic went when it the ocean floor before it ploughed to a stop, is the ocean floor is almost up to the anchor. Although she eventually broke in half, Titanic broke after she went under, about 1200 ft before it hit the bottom. Survivors witnessed the ship sinking without breaking. The depth at which it broke was calculated by the scattering of debris in the debries field.

So....the next Cameron movie they need to watch is..... The Abyss. Though I recommend the theatrical release, not the extended release. And then after that, something fun, True Lies.

thank you!

Just reposted it for y’all

Jordan Robinson

We will get this fixed

Jordan Robinson

Same! Can't watch it either.

Amanda Eubanks

Same here.

Kristin D

I can't watch the reaction because it says its age restricted.... how do I watch this?

Julie Lazenby

Saw the museum on one of my many trips to Denver, it was so cool.

Patty Estrada

Molly Brown was from Denver, where I live. She was quite the character and also gave a lot of her “new money” to charity. They have turned her house into a museum that is stunning!

Janell

Kathy Bates was new money and she played the Unsinkable Molly Brown. Steam engines like locomotives.Of course this movie love story of Jack and Rose is fiction but the story of the boat is real.

Lisa Rhodes

There was a swimming pool onboard. Also, there was a Turkish style spa and a lot of the decorations stained glass and some furniture are relatively well preserved that has been video documented.

Kevin

They played Nearer my God to Thee.

Elizabeth Franco

Bill Paxton also in Apollo 13

Elizabeth Franco

The story of Titanic is real and most of the stories and people in the movie are based on historical events.

Elizabeth Franco

Yay! I can’t wait to get home to watch this reaction.

Jennifer Sanchez

I’ve been waiting for this one! The amount of times I’ve seen this movie, let me tell you lol. 1) cuz it’s a great movie, 2) cuz I love the Edwardian era, so the wardrobe and sets are *chefs kiss*, and 3) because I was obsessed with the Titanic when I was younger. “Nearer My God To Thee” (the last song played by the band), always gets me, its just so damn beautiful and sad at the same time 💔. The whole score for this movie (by James Horner) is great. Will we get the full length reaction today? Jordan, finally you’ve seen a Leonardo DiCaprio movie! You’ll want to watch more, trust me. Some of my favorites are “Catch Me If You Can” directed by Spielberg also starring Tom Hanks. “Inception” a sci-fi with a great ensemble cast. “The Departed” by the great Scorsese also stars Jack Nicholson. And “Django Unchained” one of my favorite Tarantino movies. Also, as Amber mentioned before “What’s Eating Gilbert Grape” is a great movie, Leo was so young in this one.

Patty Estrada

so glad you finally caved and wanted to get this movie checked off the list The love story between Rose and Jack is entirely fictional; it's kind of layered, nonfiction wrapped in fiction The movie showed special effects that still hold up to this day, 25 years later, including the sinking sequences James Cameron wanted this movie to be produced for years when it finally got released into theaters, only technology wasn't there yet; he LOVES exploring the ocean and studied this topic thoroughly He's dived to the site at least twice The scenes with the submerisbles were all shot, paid for and edited by him personally so this is like his baby Even the ship the Keldysh was commissioned by Cameron; I believe he used that same ship to explore on his own At the time, this movie was the most expensive ever and it more than made enough of the cost back thanks to the audiences that crowded the theaters back in 1997 into mid- 1998 that gave the box office over 2 BILLION dollars
