Am I the only one that's never seen it?

Titanic was a never-ending bore.

I'm just a big sap: I liked the movie. I know it is cheese. I know it is full of stupidity. I know I shouldn't like it. But I enjoyed it. Yeah, I'm just a big ol wuss.

But I hate the Celine Dion song.

And getting to see naked boobies always helps make me enjoy a movie.

I agree on all points.

To be fair, I also liked Hudson Hawk and the League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, so my taste is questionable.

Titanic was an enjoyable film, brought to life by a director with enormous respect and passion for the source material. Cameron's love for Titanic is as evident as Peter Jackson's passion for LOTR.

Compared to most other top-grossing movies, it shines.

Just to be clear, I wasn't suggesting EH1812 was a fan of the movie, but I thought she was interested in the actual history.

Titantic is the name of the ship, btw, and not just two of the movies about it. (The Barbara Stanwyck Titantic is likely the worst of the bunch)

Ah, in that case you were right, right, right!

Just as everybody was Woodstock (and yet the machinery of society continued to function) and just as nobody voted for Ronald Reagan in 1984 (and yet he somehow won in a landslide), nobody liked Titanic at the time (and yet it made $600 million and exit surveys showed strongly positive reactions across demographic groups).

I did see the movie. Wasn't that enthralled by it. What I was referring to as the stinker beyond stinkers was the stage play.

I liked it. I thought the sinking was very well done. The sounds were incredible, and very creepy.

Like I said, I was lukewarm about it, but enough of a Titantic enthusiast to see it four times with paid admission. Imagine if I'd had a boy-crush on Leo DiCaprio??
