Ash at the start: "3 hours of romance! Might as well waterboard me." Ash at the end: rants about how amazing the movie captures the struggle of humanity in tragedy and the beautiful love story within it.
@@RobertJuzstoneIt's described as an Epic Romance Disaster Movie. Although the situation would be terrifying that isn't the intention of the movie for the audience.
One of the saddest realizations is that Jack knew that Rose was suicidal, so he gives her a speech about how she's going to go on with her life and have lots of babies because he already knows he's not going to make it. Jack saved her life more than once during their time together 😢 she keeps her promise and can finally die at sea with Jack like she originally wanted.
Fun Facts: The musicians playing as the ship went down was a true story based on accounts from actual survivors of the Titanic disaster. James Cameron had about 3/4 of the Titanic rebuilt as an EXACT replica for the movie. He did everything in such detail that the studio cut off his budget saying it was getting too expensive to recreate the ship and the sets. Cameron then used MILIONS of his own money to finance completing his vision of what he wanted people to see in the movie. This cost nearly sent him into bankruptcy. There are also rumors that this was one of the reasons for his split with Linda Hamilton. Cameron's gamble paid off exponentially! Titanic is one of the highest grossing and beloved movies of all time.
The way Ash was waiting for Jack to move, then lost all hopw when he saw Hannah's face, was a beautiful moment. When you know somebody so well you can read their face like a book
There's a story about a Titanic survivor who could never again attend any event with a crowds that cheer, because the sound of an arena of people reminded him far too much of the sound of the 1000's screaming in the water.
@@riseofazrael this is the scene of the movie that shocked me the most : after Rose & Jack got separated after the Titanic immerse in water, and Rose come back to the surface. It litterally gave me chills up to my spine and brought me tears when I watched it at the cinema back then.
Not so fun fact: A woman named Violet Jessop survived all 3 major shipping accidents at the time. Titanic, Britannica, and the Olympic Ocean Liner. A channel called Watcher did a great video on it as part of their "Puppet History" series.
I know people tend to always mention the screaming...which is fair. But could you imagine the SOUNDS as it rent itself apart? There's a video here where it has what that might have sounded like and...absolutely not.
I have a relative that died on the Titanic. She was on the mid/lower decks. There was a traveling exhibit that I went to on a school trip; way back when I was in primary school. At the end there was a whole wall with the names of everyone who died etched in it. I found her name.
The absolute elation when Ash recognises king Theoden, and then pulls out his sword… followed by the utter heartbreak when he shouts “for Gondor!” instead of Rohan 😭
Rose threw the necklace overboard, then died "warm in her bed at the end" and her spirit reunited with Jack and all the others who died with Titanic - - BRILLIANT
The idea came from Louis Abernathy. He was best friends with James Cameron and was Brock's sidekick. Years later, Bill Paxton and Louis visited the wrecksite in a submersible. It was life imitating art.
In the Fairview Lawn Cemetery in Halifax Nova Scotia there is a Grave Stone Marked J. Dawson. When the Film came out you couldn't get near the place! Thousands came every day to leave flowers and tokens! Finally the Cemetery paid to do reasearch and discovered it was a young man named Joseph Dawson who was a Coal Breaker stationed near the Boilers. If you ever are in Halifax, there are Museums full of Titanic Artifacts. I actually touched one of the Deck Chairs that was recovered .... And to Think Molly Brown or John Jacob Astor could have sat in it, gave me chills!
@jamesalexander5623 I was JUST about to comment the same thing. Our tour guide told us he was a mere "fireman" down in the engine room, but people still show up and leave flowers at his marker.....somehow thinking he's the character in the film. One thing I thought was wild, the grave markers are arranged in the shape of the ship's hull (laid out decades and decades ago), and when they found the wreck in '85, the actual ship's hull was pointing in the exact same direction as the grave markers. In the Maritime Museum in Halifax, there is a wall that has all of the known victims' names painted on it. Every member of my family and extended family somehow have their names represented on that wall. We have very common Irish names so it's not THAT much of a coincidence. Still.......it was pretty trippy to see my name on that wall. Seeing the shoes of the "Unkown Child" displayed there was pretty sobering. Don't get me started on the Titanic😅. I've been obsessed with the story since I was a kid.....
I know Ash doesn't like Rose's dress when she's coming down the stairs, but let me tell you... in 1997 that dress was EVERYTHING. My sister had a replica made for prom 😂
I saw a documentary once where a lady that survived titanic explained why she could not stand the sound of a stadium full of people cheering: it was the exact sounds she heard that night right after the titanic sank - people in the water were still alive and screaming. that image haunts me to this day.
Mollie Brown, played by Kathy Bates, was a real person. She came from humble origins, becoming rich when her prospector/miner husband hit one of the biggest silver lodes in Colorado. Never forgot where she came from.
I visited the Mollie Brown House in Denver, CO three years before the movie came out. There's a small Titanic exhibit in the basement after the tour is finished.
I saw this in the theater 7 times. I saw it friends, I went to see with my parents, then cousins, and and dates with girls. Every single time, I absolutely loved the experience. I wish James Cameron would leave Avatar alone and go back to telling stories like this. One of the greatest films ever made, and one of the best from the 1990s. Truly incredible epic.
I watched this movie in theatres when it first came out in the 90’s. I still remember the very loud gasps, whimpers and sniffling by not only women but grown ass men in the theatre (myself included). I remember once the movie ended and the lights came on seeing everyone’s red puffy eyes and nose from crying so much and their t shirt collars with obvious wet spots from tears falling or being wiped. I have a funny/heart warming memory from that night, as we exist the theatre that day; an older couple walking together in front of us, she leaned over to her husband and said “I don’t know if that Christmas cruise is a good idea anymore” & the husband smiled and said “don’t worry, I’ll bring an extra door” 😭😂

Women didn't watch the movie, they were all looking down or covering their faces, I don't know how they knew what was happening on screen, they were all through a severe affliction attack. 😂
There was a point to Jack's death that Cameron wanted to make. To hear that over 1,500 people died that night is an abstract concept, we can't wrap our heads around such a large number, it's distant and impersonal. But to have the audience get to truly know and care about a character and then kill him in the tragedy it allows us to then feel the loss, to feel the tragedy, to cry for Jack's loss is to cry for all of the victims that terrible night. It makes it real for us which is something no other film about Titanic did.
As an architecture student, part of why I love this movie, is that the first half really lets the audience appreciate the beauty and craftsmanship of the ship, which makes the sinking and destruction so painful.
You might want to check out Titanic Honor and Glory. It's a virtual recreation of 50% of the ship. It's the most accurate depiction of Titanic outside of Cameron's.
"I'd finish it so quick, it wouldn't even look like her.."🤣 Ash would have drawn a stick figure, yelled, "Done!" & been on that couch in like 3 seconds. Lmfao!🤣🤣🤣
The old couple holding each other as the ship goes down is about a real couple who owned Macys department store in New York. Her husband wanted her to get on one of the lifeboats, but she refused, and they were last seen holding each other as the ship went down. The scene where Cal ( roses fiance) and her are having breakfast and he throws the table while shouting at her was not in the script so the fear on Kates face is absolutely real. Also where Rose says "I would rather be his whore than your wife " and spits in Cals face well the spit was not in the script either so his shock is real too so she really got her own back. Where Leo says "get on the bed erm the couch " was a mistake as he was only meant to say get on the couch lol i can't blame him tho. Its directors drawings of kate etc. Great reaction guys. ❤ wishing you both a wonderful year ahead.
@@deborahpaley21 Isador Strauss. His wife's name was Rosalie but she went by her middle name Ida. Only reason I know this is because my cousin was and still is obsessed with everything Titanic and other things in history. He's told me so much historically over the years about the Titanic and the making of Cameron's movie that I feel like I know as much as he does.
Yes and no. An Odeon was an old Greek word for a performance place. It is why so many old theaters (plays, music halls, cinemas, et cetera) are named The Odeon. Anyway the earliest movie theaters charged a nickel and were called nickelodeon. Shortly thereafter arcades of silent movie machines (they looked a little like the OG scanners from Star Trek) You paid your nickel and a light came on inside, then you turned a handle to advance the film. After a set time the light went out. It could take several nickels to watch the whole film. After they fell out of popularity eventually the first Juke boxes were invented. They cost a nickel and also had the nickname, the nickelodeon. This last version of the word is immortalized in the 1949 song "Music! Music! Music!". "Put another nickel in. In the nickelodeon. All I want is having you, And music, music, music!" Long and short is a nickname for various entertainment sources. Not just the cranked movie machine.
I’m so happy people are allowed to love this film again. It was INSANELY popular when it came out. Stayed at number 1 for months, swept the Oscars, us young teen girls were DYING over it. Total cultural phenomenon. Then about ten years later the hipsters all made it very uncool to even say you LIKED the movie. It was the cultural pendulum swing that often happens when something is too popular for too long. I admit as a nervous young twenties gal I sold my soul and pretended it was stupid to fit in with a guy who was far too cool to even entertain that had any value and who teased me for admitting I had liked it at 14. Now I’m in my 40s and I see it appreciated and finding a new generation. Does my heart a lot of good.
@@tanalee837 That’s easy enough to say. I mean, at my age, I couldn’t care less. But it’s HARD to get there when you’re young. I dunno if this was just me, but I just always felt like others knew what they were doing and I certainly didn’t so it made sense to listen. Now I know that nobody knows what they’re doing so we might as well at least like what we like. 😂
In all honesty I don't remember anyone, ever, saying that this movie is bad. It is a classic, it defined an age. I dono do sons people actually think this movie is bad?? Do they have a soul?😂
Man I'm glad I missed all that, being 11 years younger than you everyone I knew thought it was a crazy awesome action movie coz we were too young to get put off the "cringe romance" element
The one big historical mistake the film makes is the guy who shoots Jack’s friend then commits suicide was a real person who acted really heroically during the sinking (there’s a memorial to him in his hometown). People were understandably upset, and Cameron issued a really sincere apology for portraying him that way
First Officer Murdoch was a hero that night - if you were man, your odds of survival were better on the starboard side where he was loading the boats than on the port side where Lightoller was loading them. Murdoch went by "Women and children first, then any others", Lightoller "women and children only. No others." And while we will never know for certain, there is a small amount of eyewitness testimony than AN officer did in fact commit suicide. Did it happen? If so was it Murdoch? Maybe, maybe not. But it is something that has been the subject of much debate over the years.
Some of the passengers reported Murdoch committing suicide which was printed in various newspapers. But, it was never confirmed. I think that's why James Cameron didn't place Rose there when it happened in the film. More than likely it's something she would have read in one of the papers and conveyed to the group rather than witnessing it.
The only other historical mistake I am aware of is that Jack talks of fishing on Lake Wissota in Wisconsin, but the man-made lake was not made until five years after the Titanic sank.
Well, I hope everyone knows that these are very one dimensional, fictional characters. Jack Dawson's son, Richard Dawson, went on to host Family Feud in the states.... 'nuff said.
They also, in my opinion, make Bruce Ismay a lot scummier than he really was. There's no evidence he pressured Captain Smith to go faster, and while maybe he shouldn't have saved himself when so many others parished, there was an open seat on the boat and self preservation is a basic human instinct.
the fact ash said how much he hates romance movies and then to see how involved he got was amazing....lol. i saw this in theater when it first came out, it was truly amazing to see. jack and rose are made up characters and (just my opinion was) the reason they added them and such to the movie was i dont know if just random people would have came to see a over hour long movie just on the sinking of the titanic...i personally love the history on it but if you were to tell a average person about the movie back then i dont think anyone would have gotten into it and the expenses to film such a great ship sinking like this and all the time the director took to get all the education to give the lost their proper respect needed they would need a profit in the end to balance the cost... so they had to add in a element the average person would want to see to draw them in. but thats just my opinion.....but im so happy to see you watch it ash!!!
This is so strange. I was literally looking for Titanic reacrions yesterday and was thinking it'd be great if Ash and Hannah reacted to it... Then I see this today 😆 Manifesting all kinds of things.
I believe the musicians playing until the end was real. Kathy Bate's character was a real survivor. Fantastic job of Hannah not spoiling, just saying, "just watch" and let it play out.
Yes, I saw Wallace Hartley's violin in person. Kathy Bates' character is that of Margaret Brown. I toured her house in Denver. Margaret had a feud with quartermaster Hitchens, who was manning the lifeboat. She threatened to throw him overboard. She started several charities after the sinking, led a movement for women's suffrage, and even ran for the US Senate.
Wallace Henry Hartley, born 2nd of june 1878 in Colne Lancashire, has a memorial in Colne near my hometown of Burnley.. He gathered his fellow bandsmen together on the deck and played popular ragtime songs from the period... He was the bandmaster.. Very brave men...😢❤
@JenniferLloyd-h9g Weirdly enough, Margaret Brown never went by Molly, but Maggie. The nickname "Molly" was created by the media after her death in 1932. In the movie, she seems to be friends with John Jacob Astor. This was true in real life. Margaret traveled with John and his new wife Madeline. Apparently, there was a lot of negative gossip about Astor's divorce and because he married a much younger woman. Madeline just turned 19 and was pregnant. Margaret supported his decision. She herself was already separated from her husband, James Joseph Brown, at the time of the sinking. They were separated until his death, and she never had any other relationships. She loved her husband and was even on his bedside when he passed, but he was busy with his mining business and was a homebody. Margaret was a traveler and philanthropist and even ran for US Senate. So they had separate lives. Margaret was traveling back to Denver to see her ailing grandson. After that, she helped with relief efforts and became an activist. The movie portrayed her as unrefined, but she was well educated. She knew several languages and was a socialite. She didn't marry into wealth. Her husband's mining struck gold and a few years into her marriage.
When I was little, my mum took me to a Titanic exhibition, and it had stuff like plates, deckchairs, and life jackets from the real Titanic. It was absolutely amazing, but the best part is the dress Kate Winslet wore when the boat sank was there as well. It was stunning to see the dress in person.
Kate Winslet was 22 when this movie came out. To make you feel old, she turns 50 this October. On top of that, James Cameron has actually seen the Titanic wreckage in person. He did that before making this movie.
yeah, I've always seen him more as an explorer who btw does film, than a director who somehow dives over 12,000 feet deep into the oceans heart. crazy man, but a genius.
I swear the chaotic energy these two have is just beyond compare. Hannah asks “what do you know about this film?” and Ash proceeds to produce a hoover out of thin air, starts hoovering himself and wails about his dry skin and coming to the UK for a better life 😂 There’s a reason why I usually have to watch their reactions more than once because I just spend the first time howling with laughter 😂 Banging reaction, guys! For Gondor!
“How many times have you seen this?” “Like 25!!” 😂 I feel you, Hannah! I was obsessed with this movie when I was a kid. I’ve seen it more times than I can count, but it still gets me emotional.
Rose, married a guy, had children with him, one of the children had a daughter. But in last times, in place of remembering them, she decided to remember a one night stand. And we're saying what a romance 😂😂😂
The folks in chat already answered, but a "nickelodeon" was a very different thing back in 1912. It was often a very cheap show or movie that a person went to see for a nickel...hence the name...or it could refer to a place kind of like an arcade, where there would a bunch of hand cranked mechanical slide shows, and each one would cost a nickel, or even a penny.
@@SuperSayinSolidSnek That is another name for it, but a penny arcade would have games and other machines in it, while a Nickelodeon would only have picture machines of various kinds. And sometimes, you would even see an Arcade with a part of it called The Nickelodeon, or other variations like that. The terminology definitely appears to have been quite jumbled and mixed together, and there also seem to be regional differences in how things were labeled...but we are all talking about the same types of things. 👍😁
A Nickle Odeon. Nickelodeons were where kids went and saw a bunch of short shows for entertainment. That is where the cable channel took its name from.
The real issue with the wood piece is not the space, it's the buoyancy. If they both get on, it would be submerged which would throw off the balance and put them both in the water, even while on top of it.
A few months after it happened, back in Sth Wales. My Gran was a girl and there was a knock at the door. My G Grandmother answered it and there was an older gentleman at the door. He asked if she was Harriet Davies. She said yes, he said he was a survivor of the Titanic and he said that someone who was on the ship that didn’t get off gave him a pocket watch just before he got on a lifeboat, he asked for him to give it to her. It’s been handed down and I currently have it.
Fun fact. When cal confronts rose about being with jack at the party he wasn’t supposed to flip the table but the actor thought back then, that would be a proper response from an angry man and Kate’s reaction was real.
I think it's worth pointing out that the scene where Rose is running to the back of the ship, thinking of jumping off, there was a scene cut from the movie where she quarrels with her fiancé. Somewhat in Cals defence, it's subtly implied that he didn't fully accept Rose's explaination of "accidentally" slipping off the back, but doesn't say anything in front of anyone because it's high society and such things aren't talked about. It's hinted that he suspected in his own upper class and entirely misguided way that he knew Rose attempted something and it's stated outright that Cal knew she's depressed (melancholy). In his own entirely misguided way, he acknowledges this by presenting Rose with the Diamond necklace we'll before the Gala dinner reception in New York in a misguided attempt to prove his support in thinking that the material wealth and power that their marriage would apparently offer her, would lift her mood, but entirely missing the point of why she was depressed and desperate for a way out. Ironically, Cal's show of wealth and male dominance pushed Rose into the arms of Jack even more so than would have.
22:57 Hannah: I just want you to know something. Ash: Yes. Hannah: You'd never put a post-it note in my hand. Ash: I'll do it tonight. Hannah: Thank you! 😂😂😂 Seriously, you two are couple goals ❤
No matter the type of show, Ash always manages to turn it into a comedy, that is an incredible talent. And despite groofing around most of the movie, Ash never misses any noteworthy details. Even if it's not his favorite movie genre, he won't dismiss it with preconceived notions. A 10/10 reaction video.
Nope sorry this was a terrible reaction. He just kept ruining the moment. Theres a time and place to act like he did. I would know not to act like that during my reaction to something like this .
@@YorkshiremanReacts26 I completely understand your point of view. In the beginning, I had the same reaction as you, but after getting used to it, I found that I really enjoy this comedic style. I believe that if Ash were to go to a movie theater, he would certainly be polite and stay quiet. But you have to understand that this is his personal UA-cam channel. The purpose of watching this video IS to see Ash's reactions and the humor, which gives us the joy we want. If this isn't the style you like, then his channel may not be suitable for you, but you should also notice that many people share my viewpoint. So I believe that saying this is a terrible reaction is an unfair statement.
@@YorkshiremanReacts26 You mentioned that Ash keeps ruining the moment. Interestingly, for me, it's actually Hannah who is ruining the moment. Because I came to watch Ash's humor. Sometimes, Hannah's anger or constant crying makes it hard for me to relax. But unlike you, I wouldn't criticize her for it, because this is something that depends on personal perspective, and what each person wants out of this kind of video.
True enough, that the elderly couple: Isador & Ida Straus, never wanted to be separated. As for Thomas Andrews from "Harland & Wolff" ship yard, was a kind & decent man. He looked after all the ship's workers, providing water fountains for them through out the voyage. He was spotted throwing deck chairs to people in the water. Mr. Andrews was a personal hero of mine on Titanic. Thank you very much for your reaction.
the moment she said and looked at you "you jump, i jump right" was the moment she assured you, she is all in and has been, even if you might have forgot about it.
Fun fact: the drawing of Rose (Kate Winslet) was drawn by director James Cameron. The only difference is that when he drew her, she was in a swimsuit and not naked.
Fun Fact: James Cameron didn't want to have any singing on the soundtrack and put Celine Dion's song "My Heart Will Go On" at the end of the list. Ironically it was the #1 Song of the year staying on the charts for months, being the most played, and winning several awards.
When I saw the largest Titanic exhibit in Las Vegas they had a huge block of ice and you could put your hand on it and see how long you could stand the cold. I made it like 40 seconds before I had to remove my hand because it was so painful. Then they had a sign that said the water on that night was 20 degrees (f) colder than the ice block... I couldnt even imagine.
It's the ending that always gets me. When we re-enter the Titanic and we see all the faces of the ones who lost their lives... and then seeing Jack at the top of the stairs waiting for her 😭 What a scene!
I always understood that scene as Rose dying, like Jack said, as an old woman, warm im her bed. And now that she died, she joined them in death and finally reunited with Jack.
Bernard Hill (who played Captain Smith in this film) also played Theoden in the LOTR trilogy. Bernard has the distinction of being the only ever person to appear in 2 movies that won 11 Oscars each (TITANIC and LOTR: RETURN OF THE KING).
*I love how this movie is essentially Romeo & Juliet set on an ill-fated ocean liner.* *_Rest in peace to the 1,500 people who lost their lives aboard the real Titanic in 1912._*
44:11 Officer Lightholler, the man who launched so many boats half full, got a sliver of redemption years later at Dunkirk. He was among the hundreds of civilian boats that helped evacuate soldiers off the enemy beach. He played a role in two of the most memorable maritime events in human history.
A Timeless Classic. The performances of Kate Winslet and Leonardo DiCaprio are immediately captivating from the beginning and you just can't get enough of them on screen. All the supporting actors also help elevate this epic drama into titanic (heh) heights, really great casting all around. James Horner's score is absolutely phenomenal and takes you on a musical journey through all the feels, and is still ingrained in our brains after all these decades. James Cameron knows no limits, he doesn't like to compromise and will go to incredible lengths (or fathoms, hehe) to make his vision become a reality, his ambition in movie-making is almost unparalleled, and here he shows us once again why he is one of the greats, another one for the great Halls of Fame. This film is a MasterClass in Cinema.
Fun Fact: The man seen drinking as the ship sank was a nod to a man that had been drinking for hours on end to the point where the alcohol in his system kept him warm while he floated in the ocean and was one of the 6 found alive.
I was literally just thinking that! My thought was, “Man, Billy Zane needs to be in more mainstream movies… I think he could have been a good Lex Luthor.”
When Haannah said people will do anything to survive, let me tell you she is 1000% correct. I am a dive master and certified in rescue diving, search, and recovery. Long story short I was on my way 100 miles offshore to go spear fishing at some sweet oil rigs. We came across some people who had absolutely no idea what they were doing with a boat and had no business being out this far with no experience. The boat was sinking very fast and they had to jump over board. Nobody had their life jackets on but we managed to get them on board except for two people, husband and wife. They were in full-blown panic because they were drowning and were not responding to verbal commands or the flotation devices we threw at them. I got my fins, mask, and jacket on and jumped in carefully. The husband was pushing his wife down so he could get above water. He wouldn't let go of her but I couldn't let him get close to me because he would be impossible to get off. I did what we were trained to do which was dive under and behind placing the person in a chokehold and striking him in the head if necessary if they did not calm down. At the same time keep track of the wife and also make sure she didn't come back and start drowning all three of us. I had to almost knock him unconscious for him to let go. I got him to the boat and my buddies grabbed him by his hair and got him up. I went for the lady with no issue. It is instinct in its rawest and purest form. As far as the boat goes it sank simply because he never turned on his bilge pumps and never screwed in his plugs at the back of the boat, it took on too much water and that was that. Friendly tip , don't just get a boat and head out in the Gulf of Mexico 100 miles offshore and screw around.
Correct. And part of doing something is staying out of the ocean. Too many variables not in your favor if something doesn't go as planned. The woods, you can probably find some makeshift shelter, the ocean, don't get too sleepy, thirsty, or tired from paddling and hope any and all sea life present that may pose a threat below have found adequate food sources. Just your basic, average NOPE all around.
@e.s.5529 That sad thing with freezing water is that panicking uses the body's resources, which, in a situation of hypothermia, can deplete those resources rather quickly. With blood protecting the internal organs, the limbs would go number and be rendered useless. The life jackets were also dangerous if someone were to jump into the water with one on. They were internally made of rigid cork and were extremely buoyant. That meant that with impact, it would float to the surface instantly and broke the necks of many passengers. After the sinking, there was an investigation, and life jackets were modified.
I once went snorkeling with a couple. The waves were very high that day and the man inhaled sea water and started to panic. He had almost drowned as a child and was about to drown this time too... I was so worried and wanted to swim over to him, but his wife held me back. She said he would drown us both in his panic - we have to wait. Luckily he made it to the cliffs and held on there, otherwise we would have had to pull him out when he fell unconscious. she was a diver and he would have totally overpowered us.
"Nickelodeons" were those little booth that you can stick your head or eyes inside and watch a short silent film. They were very popular during this era. The kids channel named themselves this booth
His name is James, James Cameron The bravest pioneer No budget too steep, no sea too deep Who's that? It's him, James Cameron James, James Cameron explorer of the sea With a dying thirst to be the first Could it be? Yeah that's him! James Cameron
A nickelodeon in 1912 was like a movie theater that showed silent films. So jack takes her hand, bows and then kisses it and says he'd seen that in a Nickelodeon once. Or a silent film.
I was 13 in 7th grade when this movie originally came out, and at that point I had been seriously trying to develop my drawing skills for a little over a year because I had decided that I wanted to be a Disney animator. The scene of Jack drawing Rose absolutely _enchanted_ me (the hands doing the drawing are actually James Cameron's). When the movie finally came out on VHS I nearly wore it out just from watching that scene of the hands making the conte marks on the paper over and over again. I even paused it to try and draw Rose myself, trying so hard to make it look right and dreaming of the day I'd be good enough to do so. The Titanic fad ebbed like all things. I ended up going to art school for college and ultimately majored in illustration after Disney closed down most of their traditional animation in the early '00s. I've happily been an illustrator and colorist for a living ever since. A few years ago, when I was in my early 30s, I was talking to an online friend about this movie again and I told them about my efforts with that scene. She asked if I could try it again with screen share so she could watch me draw it on my cintiq, and I said yeah of course. I can't describe the feeling I got when I realized I had finally gotten there, roughly 20 years later. 🙂
Gloria Stuart who played the old Rose, was in the original The Invisible Man (1933 film). She took a break from acting from 1947 - 1974, to become an artist. She lived to 100, and died in 2010.
That "montage" of people accepting their fate with the quartet music at the background always gets me. My father was also a ship captain, and I always hear them say that if the ship sinks, the captain will be the last one to leave.
There is a wonderful documentary about the modern day sinking of the Costa Concordia. The captain actually abandons the ship. He is later sent to prison for doing so.
Fun Fact: The Irish mother who was telling her children of Tir Na Nog was played by Jenette Goldstein, a Cameron favorite. She was Vasquez in "Aliens" and John Connor's foster mother in "Terminator 2".
Interesting what Ash said near the end. James Cameron knew it would be difficult to get viewers to appreciate the full horror of the situation. He put the love story at the centre with likeable characters so that people could feel the desperation with people they could relate to. Then you start to realise that hundreds of people went through the same sort of trauma. It's a very clever way of making to feel the pain.
Crazy fact…remember the chef that was constantly drinking his flask? His name was Charles Joughin who believed that his extraordinary survival was due to the vast quantity of whisky he had drunk causing his body to warm up against the cold. I also remember a quote that one of the survivors said about the frightening experience of that night wasn’t the screams, it was how much more silent it was becoming.
I am sure it was reported like that at the time, but drinking alcohol does not warm you; it makes the blood vessels in your skin to widen and feel warmer, but in cold water that will make you go into hypothermia faster. If the reports are true, good Charles was extra lucky that night... [edit] Well, I guess all those extra calories might have help, actually.
He survived the freezing waters and was one of the last survivors to be rescued. A scene that was cut (wrongly in my opinion) shows him tossing deck chairs overboard for people in the water to cling onto. This was based on fact.
They guy who shot himself in the head was 1st officer Murdoch. He did fire his gun into the air, but there’s no evidence that he killed anyone. He was last seen trying to free a boat from the davits when Titanic dove for the bottom. He was man responsible for saving the majority of people that night and James Cameron has apologized to murdochs family, as the man saved over 300 people that night. He died in the sinking. RIP
_59:26__ Random tidbit about the temperature of the water when the Titanic sunk: The water temperature was estimated to be around 28° Fahrenheit (-2° Celsius)_
There's so many details in this. Like the couple in the bed, they were Ida and Isidor Straus - owners of Macy's. Isidor wanted Ida to get a boat, but she refused to abandon his lifelong companion. So they lived and died together. Benjamin Guggenhein, the man who put his best clothes and asked for a whiskey, really happened, too. The band playing until the end, too.
yeah heard that story from a survivor too... she would ran out of church when she heard it afterwards. they played it at my grandfather's funeral, with a men choir singing... I love that song.
I also love how, from a practical perspective, taking Jack's surname put one more welcome obstacle between Rose and Cal and her mother possibly finding her again.
James Cameron created Jack and Rose so he could fully exploit them to pull at our emotions without ANY hangups about disrespecting the privacy of real passengers. He ended up catching heat for his portray of Ismay (the guy who pushed Smith to go faster) and Murdoch (the crew member who shot a passenger), both of whom were real people, neither of whom did what the movie suggests they did.
actually Ismay and the Captain's conversation in the movie IS based off an over-heard conversation from one of the first class survivors testimony's. Though of course, it's unclear if this is what actually happened or if the survivor was hyperbolic in what they heard or if it happened at all. A lot of the testimonies were heavily questioned at the time, especially the ones where people claimed to see the Titanic split in two, which couldn't be confirmed until they found the Titanic in the 80s.
@@derbydriver that's why I mentioned it's very unclear if that convo ever did actually happen but it is why the conversation is phrased/written the way it is in the movie-- because of the report.
I've always believed the door thing at the end was less about the physical space on the door and more about the weight. I think it would have sank with them both on it. Rose only survived because she was out of the water.
This. It's the one thing about Titanic that drives me crazy. People don't seem to get that it wasn't about the space. It would've been too much weight and not enough surface area to keep it floating. And sure, they could've taken turns, but they likely both would've died then.
To me its about not having the energy to keep trying, you are exhausted and freezing cold, you body contracts and wants to conserve energy so their bodies were physically working against them getting on again and again
Nah he came across too much as a pretty boy in this film. Especially in the 90s. Everyone made fun of him for being a wuss. Took him years to get rid of that perception.
*Everything involving the Titanic is factual for the most part, including all the passengers and crew; everything involving Jack, Rose, her family, and Jacks friends is fictional, including the diamond.*
The Co-owner of Macy's decided to stay on Titanic so someone else could have his seat on the lifeboat. His wife stayed by his side. Both of course died. Two legends. Now that's a love story.
21:11 A Nickelodeon was a type of moving picture show before movies were a thing. It cost a nickel to watch it, hence the name. It was kind of like a jukebox where you could look through a lense and spin a handle and the images would flip through making it look like it was moving.

1,500 men died, I say this is more of a horror movie for men than romance.
@@RobertJuzstoneIt's described as an Epic Romance Disaster Movie. Although the situation would be terrifying that isn't the intention of the movie for the audience.

@@fallenhero4550 Thanks Rain Man, but I was just making a Bill Burr joke.
One of the saddest realizations is that Jack knew that Rose was suicidal, so he gives her a speech about how she's going to go on with her life and have lots of babies because he already knows he's not going to make it. Jack saved her life more than once during their time together 😢 she keeps her promise and can finally die at sea with Jack like she originally wanted.
I never thought of the relation between the beginning and ending like that, thanks.
@@libertyresearch-iu4fy Its a fantastic connection.
They cut the most important scene in the movie when roses soul reunites with the souls lost on 5he ship and Jack. Unforgivable.
@@ROBERTMILLS-v9z Probably because of copyright with the music. They can only leave so much in the movie after all.
And then he washed ashore in Inception.
Fun Facts: The musicians playing as the ship went down was a true story based on accounts from actual survivors of the Titanic disaster. James Cameron had about 3/4 of the Titanic rebuilt as an EXACT replica for the movie. He did everything in such detail that the studio cut off his budget saying it was getting too expensive to recreate the ship and the sets. Cameron then used MILIONS of his own money to finance completing his vision of what he wanted people to see in the movie. This cost nearly sent him into bankruptcy. There are also rumors that this was one of the reasons for his split with Linda Hamilton. Cameron's gamble paid off exponentially! Titanic is one of the highest grossing and beloved movies of all time.
yeah, well the other BIG reason he split with Linda Hamilton was because he was boning the actress who plays Rose's daughter.
truly one of the greatest
I remember that my family and I (when I was 7) went to see the movie in the theater 7 times. So I think we paid back the investment XD
Fun fact? I knew this many years ago. Not so fun.
@earlsdennie41 good for you.
“How many times have you seen this?”
“About 25 😭😭😭”
About 45
About 30 times when it came out and I was 12. About 60+ times in total. At least twice a year lately.
I lost count but it's a beautiful film not single mistake it's perfection
The way Ash was waiting for Jack to move, then lost all hopw when he saw Hannah's face, was a beautiful moment. When you know somebody so well you can read their face like a book

@@slenderfoxx3797so many romances become disasters, so yeah!
There's a story about a Titanic survivor who could never again attend any event with a crowds that cheer, because the sound of an arena of people reminded him far too much of the sound of the 1000's screaming in the water.
I can't imagine being on one of those people on the lifeboats and just hearing the screams of 1000s of people slowly fade out.
@@riseofazrael this is the scene of the movie that shocked me the most : after Rose & Jack got separated after the Titanic immerse in water, and Rose come back to the surface. It litterally gave me chills up to my spine and brought me tears when I watched it at the cinema back then.
Not so fun fact: A woman named Violet Jessop survived all 3 major shipping accidents at the time. Titanic, Britannica, and the Olympic Ocean Liner. A channel called Watcher did a great video on it as part of their "Puppet History" series.
@@MFBloosh I have a FABULOUS book on VIOLET JESSOP. It is excellent reading.
I know people tend to always mention the screaming...which is fair. But could you imagine the SOUNDS as it rent itself apart? There's a video here where it has what that might have sounded like and...absolutely not.
I have a relative that died on the Titanic. She was on the mid/lower decks. There was a traveling exhibit that I went to on a school trip; way back when I was in primary school. At the end there was a whole wall with the names of everyone who died etched in it. I found her name.
What was her name, if you don't mind me asking?
The absolute elation when Ash recognises king Theoden, and then pulls out his sword… followed by the utter heartbreak when he shouts “for Gondor!” instead of Rohan 😭
😂 I burst in laughter actually... Gotta love Ash! ❤
I just pretend he was remembering King Theoden's final battle at Gondor 😂
I was skipping through it. I was wondering if he recognized him
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO CLOSE ENOUGH 😂😂
it's a symbolism 😜
Rose threw the necklace overboard, then died "warm in her bed at the end" and her spirit reunited with Jack and all the others who died with Titanic - - BRILLIANT
But Cal and her Mother were not there .... They were in Hell!
The idea came from Louis Abernathy. He was best friends with James Cameron and was Brock's sidekick. Years later, Bill Paxton and Louis visited the wrecksite in a submersible. It was life imitating art.
@@jamesalexander5623well, Cal and Rose’s mom didn’t die on the Titanic so their souls weren’t there
They didn't show it ,pissed off!
Sucks for the man she married and had children with
I don't think I've ever seen Ash so emotional in a reaction before, but this movie really gets you in the feels.
The Green Mile, Forrest Gump, and Schindler’s List actually made Ash BAWL.
It's a Wonderful Life made both of them cry throughout.

@@emilymorris5927Their reaction was the best I've seen for that beautiful classic film
“WHERE IS HIS GRAVE?!”
I’m not mocking Ash’s sincerity in his reaction, but that bit was funny.
😂
I laughed out loud when he said that as well. "Hawk tuah at his grave!" LOL!
In the Fairview Lawn Cemetery in Halifax Nova Scotia there is a Grave Stone Marked J. Dawson. When the Film came out you couldn't get near the place! Thousands came every day to leave flowers and tokens! Finally the Cemetery paid to do reasearch and discovered it was a young man named Joseph Dawson who was a Coal Breaker stationed near the Boilers. If you ever are in Halifax, there are Museums full of Titanic Artifacts. I actually touched one of the Deck Chairs that was recovered .... And to Think Molly Brown or John Jacob Astor could have sat in it, gave me chills!
@jamesalexander5623 I was JUST about to comment the same thing. Our tour guide told us he was a mere "fireman" down in the engine room, but people still show up and leave flowers at his marker.....somehow thinking he's the character in the film.
One thing I thought was wild, the grave markers are arranged in the shape of the ship's hull (laid out decades and decades ago), and when they found the wreck in '85, the actual ship's hull was pointing in the exact same direction as the grave markers.
In the Maritime Museum in Halifax, there is a wall that has all of the known victims' names painted on it. Every member of my family and extended family somehow have their names represented on that wall. We have very common Irish names so it's not THAT much of a coincidence. Still.......it was pretty trippy to see my name on that wall.
Seeing the shoes of the "Unkown Child" displayed there was pretty sobering.
Don't get me started on the Titanic😅. I've been obsessed with the story since I was a kid.....
I have no intentions to ever visit England but if I were to visit I could imagine pissing on his grave would be on my " To do " list in Europe
I know Ash doesn't like Rose's dress when she's coming down the stairs, but let me tell you... in 1997 that dress was EVERYTHING. My sister had a replica made for prom 😂
So true! I wore one to homecoming and my mom wore one to a wedding 😂😂😂
That dress is everything now...imo. It's absolutely beautiful ❤
It still is and he doesn't know what he's talking about 😂
Same with women getting married wanting the Princess Dianna dress back in the day, oh how those fashion trends come and go
Facts! My prom dress was inspired by this film. I loved her gowns especially the red and black lace one she wore when she almost fell off the boat.
I saw a documentary once where a lady that survived titanic explained why she could not stand the sound of a stadium full of people cheering: it was the exact sounds she heard that night right after the titanic sank - people in the water were still alive and screaming. that image haunts me to this day.
I remember that interview. She said the only sound worse was the silence after.
27:53 Ash's "woooow" had me cackling for 5 mins. He is SMITTEN by Leo 🤣

Mollie Brown, played by Kathy Bates, was a real person. She came from humble origins, becoming rich when her prospector/miner husband hit one of the biggest silver lodes in Colorado. Never forgot where she came from.
"Unsinkable" Mollie Brown
She did a lot of charity work for the less privileged survivors of the Titanic after she came back. She was a great person.
I visited the Mollie Brown House in Denver, CO three years before the movie came out. There's a small Titanic exhibit in the basement after the tour is finished.
There was a whole Broadway musical about her life. "The Unsinkable Molly Brown"
@@PhilBagels Yeah 1960, and the movie adaptation 4 years later is how Debbie Reynolds got her 1 Oscar nomination for Best Actress.
I saw this in the theater 7 times. I saw it friends, I went to see with my parents, then cousins, and and dates with girls. Every single time, I absolutely loved the experience. I wish James Cameron would leave Avatar alone and go back to telling stories like this. One of the greatest films ever made, and one of the best from the 1990s. Truly incredible epic.
15 times when it first came out. 5 or 6 times when it was re-released in IMAX 3d
I have to see it at least a few times in theaters every time it's re-released
I would’ve gone but that was the year I was born 😂 Next time it’s re-released I’ll definitely go and watch it as many times as I can
"You better get your fu**ing pencils out, mate" is right up there with "Draw me like one of your French girls". I will forever remember both.
I watched this movie in theatres when it first came out in the 90’s. I still remember the very loud gasps, whimpers and sniffling by not only women but grown ass men in the theatre (myself included). I remember once the movie ended and the lights came on seeing everyone’s red puffy eyes and nose from crying so much and their t shirt collars with obvious wet spots from tears falling or being wiped. I have a funny/heart warming memory from that night, as we exist the theatre that day; an older couple walking together in front of us, she leaned over to her husband and said “I don’t know if that Christmas cruise is a good idea anymore” & the husband smiled and said “don’t worry, I’ll bring an extra door” 😭😂
Women didn't watch the movie, they were all looking down or covering their faces, I don't know how they knew what was happening on screen, they were all through a severe affliction attack. 😂
An extra door 🚪 is insane 😂😂
There was a point to Jack's death that Cameron wanted to make. To hear that over 1,500 people died that night is an abstract concept, we can't wrap our heads around such a large number, it's distant and impersonal. But to have the audience get to truly know and care about a character and then kill him in the tragedy it allows us to then feel the loss, to feel the tragedy, to cry for Jack's loss is to cry for all of the victims that terrible night.
It makes it real for us which is something no other film about Titanic did.
spot on.
As an architecture student, part of why I love this movie, is that the first half really lets the audience appreciate the beauty and craftsmanship of the ship, which makes the sinking and destruction so painful.
Yes - the ship itself is another character and when she's in her death throes, tearing herself apart, there's an impact.
You might want to check out Titanic Honor and Glory. It's a virtual recreation of 50% of the ship. It's the most accurate depiction of Titanic outside of Cameron's.

@BeardGuy-vz8tn ...As he obviously yells out, "Symbolism!!" 😉😁🤣🤣🤣

The old couple holding each other as the ship goes down is about a real couple who owned Macys department store in New York. Her husband wanted her to get on one of the lifeboats, but she refused, and they were last seen holding each other as the ship went down.
The scene where Cal ( roses fiance) and her are having breakfast and he throws the table while shouting at her was not in the script so the fear on Kates face is absolutely real. Also where Rose says "I would rather be his whore than your wife " and spits in Cals face well the spit was not in the script either so his shock is real too so she really got her own back. Where Leo says "get on the bed erm the couch " was a mistake as he was only meant to say get on the couch lol i can't blame him tho.
Its directors drawings of kate etc.

A nickelodeon is like a vending machine where you can watch short animations for a nickel.
I get it....
Yes and no. An Odeon was an old Greek word for a performance place. It is why so many old theaters (plays, music halls, cinemas, et cetera) are named The Odeon.
Anyway the earliest movie theaters charged a nickel and were called nickelodeon. Shortly thereafter arcades of silent movie machines (they looked a little like the OG scanners from Star Trek) You paid your nickel and a light came on inside, then you turned a handle to advance the film. After a set time the light went out. It could take several nickels to watch the whole film.
After they fell out of popularity eventually the first Juke boxes were invented. They cost a nickel and also had the nickname, the nickelodeon.
This last version of the word is immortalized in the 1949 song "Music! Music! Music!".
"Put another nickel in.
In the nickelodeon.
All I want is having you,
And music, music, music!"
Long and short is a nickname for various entertainment sources. Not just the cranked movie machine.

The death of Jack Dawson in Titanic is still to this day one of the saddest deaths in cinema history... 😭💔
I’m so happy people are allowed to love this film again.
It was INSANELY popular when it came out. Stayed at number 1 for months, swept the Oscars, us young teen girls were DYING over it. Total cultural phenomenon.
Then about ten years later the hipsters all made it very uncool to even say you LIKED the movie. It was the cultural pendulum swing that often happens when something is too popular for too long.
I admit as a nervous young twenties gal I sold my soul and pretended it was stupid to fit in with a guy who was far too cool to even entertain that had any value and who teased me for admitting I had liked it at 14.
Now I’m in my 40s and I see it appreciated and finding a new generation. Does my heart a lot of good.
moral of the story - don't care what anybody else says...
@@tanalee837 That’s easy enough to say. I mean, at my age, I couldn’t care less. But it’s HARD to get there when you’re young. I dunno if this was just me, but I just always felt like others knew what they were doing and I certainly didn’t so it made sense to listen. Now I know that nobody knows what they’re doing so we might as well at least like what we like. 😂
In all honesty I don't remember anyone, ever, saying that this movie is bad. It is a classic, it defined an age. I dono do sons people actually think this movie is bad?? Do they have a soul?😂
Lindsay Ellis has a great video on the Titanic that hits a fee of these points
Man I'm glad I missed all that, being 11 years younger than you everyone I knew thought it was a crazy awesome action movie coz we were too young to get put off the "cringe romance" element
The one big historical mistake the film makes is the guy who shoots Jack’s friend then commits suicide was a real person who acted really heroically during the sinking (there’s a memorial to him in his hometown). People were understandably upset, and Cameron issued a really sincere apology for portraying him that way
First Officer Murdoch was a hero that night - if you were man, your odds of survival were better on the starboard side where he was loading the boats than on the port side where Lightoller was loading them. Murdoch went by "Women and children first, then any others", Lightoller "women and children only. No others."
And while we will never know for certain, there is a small amount of eyewitness testimony than AN officer did in fact commit suicide. Did it happen? If so was it Murdoch? Maybe, maybe not. But it is something that has been the subject of much debate over the years.
Some of the passengers reported Murdoch committing suicide which was printed in various newspapers. But, it was never confirmed. I think that's why James Cameron didn't place Rose there when it happened in the film. More than likely it's something she would have read in one of the papers and conveyed to the group rather than witnessing it.
The only other historical mistake I am aware of is that Jack talks of fishing on Lake Wissota in Wisconsin, but the man-made lake was not made until five years after the Titanic sank.
Well, I hope everyone knows that these are very one dimensional, fictional characters. Jack Dawson's son, Richard Dawson, went on to host Family Feud in the states.... 'nuff said.
They also, in my opinion, make Bruce Ismay a lot scummier than he really was. There's no evidence he pressured Captain Smith to go faster, and while maybe he shouldn't have saved himself when so many others parished, there was an open seat on the boat and self preservation is a basic human instinct.
Nickelodeon is actually an ancient word for cinema. :) So when Jack kisses her hand, he's saying he saw this in a movie once, basically. :D
When Ash said the editing is 700 years... I felt that.
Omg what are y’all doing here 🫣😏

He crapped out before the final shot, when she passed and met him at the top of the stairs! For shame!
There they are!
It's been 84 years...
Ash - "I'm trying to be respectful, yeah... but... WHERE'S HIS GRAVE?!"
I'm dead 🤣🤣🤣🤣
the fact ash said how much he hates romance movies and then to see how involved he got was amazing....lol. i saw this in theater when it first came out, it was truly amazing to see. jack and rose are made up characters and (just my opinion was) the reason they added them and such to the movie was i dont know if just random people would have came to see a over hour long movie just on the sinking of the titanic...i personally love the history on it but if you were to tell a average person about the movie back then i dont think anyone would have gotten into it and the expenses to film such a great ship sinking like this and all the time the director took to get all the education to give the lost their proper respect needed they would need a profit in the end to balance the cost... so they had to add in a element the average person would want to see to draw them in. but thats just my opinion.....but im so happy to see you watch it ash!!!
This is so strange. I was literally looking for Titanic reacrions yesterday and was thinking it'd be great if Ash and Hannah reacted to it... Then I see this today 😆 Manifesting all kinds of things.
The Universe be like that, sometimes i feel like cant be coincidence kinda like daja vu thats so scary you think you saw the future
I was looking to see if they had one last week because I was watching other reaction channels. Now here we are 🎉
I started the Titanic Mini Series last night.
Symbolisms!
I love Titanic reactions. The reactors who initially write it off as a love story always get so into it by the end.
I believe the musicians playing until the end was real. Kathy Bate's character was a real survivor. Fantastic job of Hannah not spoiling, just saying, "just watch" and let it play out.
Yes, I saw Wallace Hartley's violin in person. Kathy Bates' character is that of Margaret Brown. I toured her house in Denver. Margaret had a feud with quartermaster Hitchens, who was manning the lifeboat. She threatened to throw him overboard. She started several charities after the sinking, led a movement for women's suffrage, and even ran for the US Senate.
How Hannah approached it is how it should always be. Why spoil anything for anyone? Lol
Wallace Henry Hartley, born 2nd of june 1878 in Colne Lancashire, has a memorial in Colne near my hometown of Burnley..
He gathered his fellow bandsmen together on the deck and played popular ragtime songs from the period...
He was the bandmaster..
Very brave men...😢❤
@@Chris-vk2zw The Unsinkable Molly Brown.❤
@JenniferLloyd-h9g Weirdly enough, Margaret Brown never went by Molly, but Maggie. The nickname "Molly" was created by the media after her death in 1932. In the movie, she seems to be friends with John Jacob Astor. This was true in real life. Margaret traveled with John and his new wife Madeline. Apparently, there was a lot of negative gossip about Astor's divorce and because he married a much younger woman. Madeline just turned 19 and was pregnant. Margaret supported his decision. She herself was already separated from her husband, James Joseph Brown, at the time of the sinking. They were separated until his death, and she never had any other relationships. She loved her husband and was even on his bedside when he passed, but he was busy with his mining business and was a homebody. Margaret was a traveler and philanthropist and even ran for US Senate. So they had separate lives. Margaret was traveling back to Denver to see her ailing grandson. After that, she helped with relief efforts and became an activist. The movie portrayed her as unrefined, but she was well educated. She knew several languages and was a socialite. She didn't marry into wealth. Her husband's mining struck gold and a few years into her marriage.
When I was little, my mum took me to a Titanic exhibition, and it had stuff like plates, deckchairs, and life jackets from the real Titanic. It was absolutely amazing, but the best part is the dress Kate Winslet wore when the boat sank was there as well. It was stunning to see the dress in person.
Kate Winslet was 22 when this movie came out. To make you feel old, she turns 50 this October. On top of that, James Cameron has actually seen the Titanic wreckage in person. He did that before making this movie.
Yes and if I remember correctly he went down there 15 times before filming. he has gone down many more times since.
*All the footage of the Titanic wreck used in this movie was filmed by James Cameron.*
He’s been to the wreck 33 times and has actually spent more cumulative time “on board” the Titanic than her passengers did.
yeah, I've always seen him more as an explorer who btw does film, than a director who somehow dives over 12,000 feet deep into the oceans heart. crazy man, but a genius.
@@SciTrekManthe scenes with the submersibles, if you see 2 subs, it's CGI with miniatures. If you see 1 sub, it's real footage.
I swear the chaotic energy these two have is just beyond compare. Hannah asks “what do you know about this film?” and Ash proceeds to produce a hoover out of thin air, starts hoovering himself and wails about his dry skin and coming to the UK for a better life 😂 There’s a reason why I usually have to watch their reactions more than once because I just spend the first time howling with laughter 😂 Banging reaction, guys! For Gondor!
😂😂😂😂😂 that hoover and rant was so random.
“How many times have you seen this?” “Like 25!!” 😂 I feel you, Hannah! I was obsessed with this movie when I was a kid. I’ve seen it more times than I can count, but it still gets me emotional.
Rose, married a guy, had children with him, one of the children had a daughter. But in last times, in place of remembering them, she decided to remember a one night stand. And we're saying what a romance 😂😂😂

The folks in chat already answered, but a "nickelodeon" was a very different thing back in 1912. It was often a very cheap show or movie that a person went to see for a nickel...hence the name...or it could refer to a place kind of like an arcade, where there would a bunch of hand cranked mechanical slide shows, and each one would cost a nickel, or even a penny.
The second thing you're talking about i think is called a penny arcade
@@SuperSayinSolidSnek That is another name for it, but a penny arcade would have games and other machines in it, while a Nickelodeon would only have picture machines of various kinds. And sometimes, you would even see an Arcade with a part of it called The Nickelodeon, or other variations like that. The terminology definitely appears to have been quite jumbled and mixed together, and there also seem to be regional differences in how things were labeled...but we are all talking about the same types of things. 👍😁

Exactly. You don't want any part of yourself giving away precious body heat to the chilly North Atlantic.
A few months after it happened, back in Sth Wales. My Gran was a girl and there was a knock at the door. My G Grandmother answered it and there was an older gentleman at the door. He asked if she was Harriet Davies. She said yes, he said he was a survivor of the Titanic and he said that someone who was on the ship that didn’t get off gave him a pocket watch just before he got on a lifeboat, he asked for him to give it to her. It’s been handed down and I currently have it.

@Cassxowary what's not funny about it? Genuinely curious. It's all in good fun and just a daft thing to say 🤣
Fun fact. When cal confronts rose about being with jack at the party he wasn’t supposed to flip the table but the actor thought back then, that would be a proper response from an angry man and Kate’s reaction was real.
I think it's worth pointing out that the scene where Rose is running to the back of the ship, thinking of jumping off, there was a scene cut from the movie where she quarrels with her fiancé. Somewhat in Cals defence, it's subtly implied that he didn't fully accept Rose's explaination of "accidentally" slipping off the back, but doesn't say anything in front of anyone because it's high society and such things aren't talked about. It's hinted that he suspected in his own upper class and entirely misguided way that he knew Rose attempted something and it's stated outright that Cal knew she's depressed (melancholy). In his own entirely misguided way, he acknowledges this by presenting Rose with the Diamond necklace we'll before the Gala dinner reception in New York in a misguided attempt to prove his support in thinking that the material wealth and power that their marriage would apparently offer her, would lift her mood, but entirely missing the point of why she was depressed and desperate for a way out. Ironically, Cal's show of wealth and male dominance pushed Rose into the arms of Jack even more so than would have.
22:57 Hannah: I just want you to know something.
Ash: Yes.
Hannah: You'd never put a post-it note in my hand.
Ash: I'll do it tonight.
Hannah: Thank you!
😂😂😂
Seriously, you two are couple goals ❤
It definitely gives you the warm fuzzies seeing them like that haha
No matter the type of show, Ash always manages to turn it into a comedy, that is an incredible talent. And despite groofing around most of the movie, Ash never misses any noteworthy details. Even if it's not his favorite movie genre, he won't dismiss it with preconceived notions. A 10/10 reaction video.
Nope sorry this was a terrible reaction. He just kept ruining the moment. Theres a time and place to act like he did. I would know not to act like that during my reaction to something like this .
@@YorkshiremanReacts26 I completely understand your point of view. In the beginning, I had the same reaction as you, but after getting used to it, I found that I really enjoy this comedic style. I believe that if Ash were to go to a movie theater, he would certainly be polite and stay quiet.
But you have to understand that this is his personal UA-cam channel. The purpose of watching this video IS to see Ash's reactions and the humor, which gives us the joy we want.
If this isn't the style you like, then his channel may not be suitable for you, but you should also notice that many people share my viewpoint.
So I believe that saying this is a terrible reaction is an unfair statement.
He’s a hilarious guy with a big heart and willing to admit when he’s wrong. That’s why he’s daddy
@@YorkshiremanReacts26 You mentioned that Ash keeps ruining the moment. Interestingly, for me, it's actually Hannah who is ruining the moment.
Because I came to watch Ash's humor. Sometimes, Hannah's anger or constant crying makes it hard for me to relax.
But unlike you, I wouldn't criticize her for it, because this is something that depends on personal perspective, and what each person wants out of this kind of video.
@ You get it!
The line that hurt me the most was “he exists now … only in my memory” … NOT EVEN HAVING A PICTURE… THAT BREAKS MY HEART 😖😞💔💔💔
True enough, that the elderly couple: Isador & Ida Straus, never wanted to be separated. As for Thomas Andrews from "Harland & Wolff" ship yard, was a kind & decent man. He looked after all the ship's workers, providing water fountains for them through out the voyage. He was spotted throwing deck chairs to people in the water.
Mr. Andrews was a personal hero of mine on Titanic.
Thank you very much for your reaction.
Hanna having a pure rage fit after Cal throws the table had me rolling. Then we got a short second showing Ash tryin to calm her down. Beautiful xD
the moment she said and looked at you "you jump, i jump right" was the moment she assured you, she is all in and has been, even if you might have forgot about it.
Not showing the last scene is criminal
INR 😂
What, the scene with the emerald? Pfff!
Edit: Diamond, whatever 😂
@ nah, the scene when she goes to sleep, and passes away which takes her back on the ship to be with everyone that didn’t make it.
Yeah, it's not the greatest editing choice.... maybe it was too painful for Ash to include. 😅 He was clearly moved by this movie!
I was pissed!
Fun fact: the drawing of Rose (Kate Winslet) was drawn by director James Cameron. The only difference is that when he drew her, she was in a swimsuit and not naked.
what was the reason behind that lol
@@dynamicentry6157comfortability of kate winslet as a human being and a woman? Hello?
I was gona say...
Fun Fact: James Cameron didn't want to have any singing on the soundtrack and put Celine Dion's song "My Heart Will Go On" at the end of the list. Ironically it was the #1 Song of the year staying on the charts for months, being the most played, and winning several awards.
Also, James Cameron was left-handed and Leo was right handed, so he filmed it in mirror image.
When I saw the largest Titanic exhibit in Las Vegas they had a huge block of ice and you could put your hand on it and see how long you could stand the cold.
I made it like 40 seconds before I had to remove my hand because it was so painful. Then they had a sign that said the water on that night was 20 degrees (f) colder than the ice block... I couldnt even imagine.
It's the ending that always gets me. When we re-enter the Titanic and we see all the faces of the ones who lost their lives... and then seeing Jack at the top of the stairs waiting for her 😭 What a scene!
The ending is more like where Rose kills Jack.
hey theyre still watchingh!@!! lol
I always understood that scene as Rose dying, like Jack said, as an old woman, warm im her bed. And now that she died, she joined them in death and finally reunited with Jack.
Right! And he cut it off 😩😩😩
@deltazora Specifically, she went back and died in that location so she could rejoin Jack.
Ash, the band playing is where the saying “and the band played on” comes from. Beautifully tragic.
"The Guy that made Terminator, made this movie"

Bernard Hill (who played Captain Smith in this film) also played Theoden in the LOTR trilogy. Bernard has the distinction of being the only ever person to appear in 2 movies that won 11 Oscars each (TITANIC and LOTR: RETURN OF THE KING).
Also the first two movies in history to break the billion-dollar barrier.
The second he showed up on screen, Ash acknowledged this. Did you even watch the video or do you just post the same comment on every Titanic video?
Between Hannah being so emotional and Ash being so insanely intense, there’s just a lot going on here.
*I love how this movie is essentially Romeo & Juliet set on an ill-fated ocean liner.*
*_Rest in peace to the 1,500 people who lost their lives aboard the real Titanic in 1912._*
44:11 Officer Lightholler, the man who launched so many boats half full, got a sliver of redemption years later at Dunkirk. He was among the hundreds of civilian boats that helped evacuate soldiers off the enemy beach. He played a role in two of the most memorable maritime events in human history.
Did he die though?
@ Lightholler? No. He made it off.
A Timeless Classic.
The performances of Kate Winslet and Leonardo DiCaprio are immediately captivating from the beginning and you just can't get enough of them on screen.
All the supporting actors also help elevate this epic drama into titanic (heh) heights, really great casting all around.
James Horner's score is absolutely phenomenal and takes you on a musical journey through all the feels, and is still ingrained in our brains after all these decades.
James Cameron knows no limits, he doesn't like to compromise and will go to incredible lengths (or fathoms, hehe) to make his vision become a reality, his ambition in movie-making is almost unparalleled, and here he shows us once again why he is one of the greats, another one for the great Halls of Fame.
This film is a MasterClass in Cinema.
Fun Fact: The man seen drinking as the ship sank was a nod to a man that had been drinking for hours on end to the point where the alcohol in his system kept him warm while he floated in the ocean and was one of the 6 found alive.
He was one of the cooks i believe possibly even the head chef
Hollywood missed a golden opportunity to cast Billy Zane as Lex Luthor
I was literally just thinking that! My thought was, “Man, Billy Zane needs to be in more mainstream movies… I think he could have been a good Lex Luthor.”
Yes, cuz he's actually bald.
😅
@newsatlantisrepublic6844, It's hard to top Rosenbaum's depiction of the character, IMO.
I still love that shitty Phantom movie!
When Haannah said people will do anything to survive, let me tell you she is 1000% correct.
I am a dive master and certified in rescue diving, search, and recovery. Long story short I was on my way 100 miles offshore to go spear fishing at some sweet oil rigs. We came across some people who had absolutely no idea what they were doing with a boat and had no business being out this far with no experience. The boat was sinking very fast and they had to jump over board. Nobody had their life jackets on but we managed to get them on board except for two people, husband and wife. They were in full-blown panic because they were drowning and were not responding to verbal commands or the flotation devices we threw at them. I got my fins, mask, and jacket on and jumped in carefully. The husband was pushing his wife down so he could get above water. He wouldn't let go of her but I couldn't let him get close to me because he would be impossible to get off. I did what we were trained to do which was dive under and behind placing the person in a chokehold and striking him in the head if necessary if they did not calm down. At the same time keep track of the wife and also make sure she didn't come back and start drowning all three of us. I had to almost knock him unconscious for him to let go. I got him to the boat and my buddies grabbed him by his hair and got him up. I went for the lady with no issue.
It is instinct in its rawest and purest form. As far as the boat goes it sank simply because he never turned on his bilge pumps and never screwed in his plugs at the back of the boat, it took on too much water and that was that. Friendly tip , don't just get a boat and head out in the Gulf of Mexico 100 miles offshore and screw around.
Correct. And part of doing something is staying out of the ocean. Too many variables not in your favor if something doesn't go as planned. The woods, you can probably find some makeshift shelter, the ocean, don't get too sleepy, thirsty, or tired from paddling and hope any and all sea life present that may pose a threat below have found adequate food sources.
Just your basic, average NOPE all around.
Holy shit. Thanks for sharing
@e.s.5529 That sad thing with freezing water is that panicking uses the body's resources, which, in a situation of hypothermia, can deplete those resources rather quickly. With blood protecting the internal organs, the limbs would go number and be rendered useless.
The life jackets were also dangerous if someone were to jump into the water with one on. They were internally made of rigid cork and were extremely buoyant. That meant that with impact, it would float to the surface instantly and broke the necks of many passengers. After the sinking, there was an investigation, and life jackets were modified.
I once went snorkeling with a couple. The waves were very high that day and the man inhaled sea water and started to panic. He had almost drowned as a child and was about to drown this time too... I was so worried and wanted to swim over to him, but his wife held me back. She said he would drown us both in his panic - we have to wait. Luckily he made it to the cliffs and held on there, otherwise we would have had to pull him out when he fell unconscious. she was a diver and he would have totally overpowered us.
"Nickelodeons" were those little booth that you can stick your head or eyes inside and watch a short silent film. They were very popular during this era. The kids channel named themselves this booth
Titanic: "I'm going on an adventure!" Iceberg: "DADDY CHILL!" Ash & Hannah: "OH MY DAYSSSSS!!!" 😂
His name is James, James Cameron

James Cameron
A nickelodeon in 1912 was like a movie theater that showed silent films. So jack takes her hand, bows and then kisses it and says he'd seen that in a Nickelodeon once. Or a silent film.
I was 13 in 7th grade when this movie originally came out, and at that point I had been seriously trying to develop my drawing skills for a little over a year because I had decided that I wanted to be a Disney animator.
The scene of Jack drawing Rose absolutely _enchanted_ me (the hands doing the drawing are actually James Cameron's). When the movie finally came out on VHS I nearly wore it out just from watching that scene of the hands making the conte marks on the paper over and over again. I even paused it to try and draw Rose myself, trying so hard to make it look right and dreaming of the day I'd be good enough to do so.
The Titanic fad ebbed like all things. I ended up going to art school for college and ultimately majored in illustration after Disney closed down most of their traditional animation in the early '00s. I've happily been an illustrator and colorist for a living ever since.
A few years ago, when I was in my early 30s, I was talking to an online friend about this movie again and I told them about my efforts with that scene. She asked if I could try it again with screen share so she could watch me draw it on my cintiq, and I said yeah of course.
I can't describe the feeling I got when I realized I had finally gotten there, roughly 20 years later. 🙂
Gloria Stuart who played the old Rose, was in the original The Invisible Man (1933 film). She took a break from acting from 1947 - 1974, to become an artist. She lived to 100, and died in 2010.
And in the Movies she made in the 30's she was Stunningly Beautiful!
@@jamesalexander5623 Just googled her and well I'll be goddamned, what a stunning woman 😮 Genuinely a beautiful lady 😊
And the award for best "I would not leave a child" face goes to Ash
That "montage" of people accepting their fate with the quartet music at the background always gets me. My father was also a ship captain, and I always hear them say that if the ship sinks, the captain will be the last one to leave.
There is a wonderful documentary about the modern day sinking of the Costa Concordia.
The captain actually abandons the ship. He is later sent to prison for doing so.
Fun Fact: The Irish mother who was telling her children of Tir Na Nog was played by Jenette Goldstein, a Cameron favorite. She was Vasquez in "Aliens" and John Connor's foster mother in "Terminator 2".
I was hoping Ash would recognize her!
Interesting what Ash said near the end. James Cameron knew it would be difficult to get viewers to appreciate the full horror of the situation. He put the love story at the centre with likeable characters so that people could feel the desperation with people they could relate to. Then you start to realise that hundreds of people went through the same sort of trauma. It's a very clever way of making to feel the pain.
Crazy fact…remember the chef that was constantly drinking his flask? His name was Charles Joughin who believed that his extraordinary survival was due to the vast quantity of whisky he had drunk causing his body to warm up against the cold.
I also remember a quote that one of the survivors said about the frightening experience of that night wasn’t the screams, it was how much more silent it was becoming.
I am sure it was reported like that at the time, but drinking alcohol does not warm you; it makes the blood vessels in your skin to widen and feel warmer, but in cold water that will make you go into hypothermia faster. If the reports are true, good Charles was extra lucky that night...
[edit] Well, I guess all those extra calories might have help, actually.
He survived the freezing waters and was one of the last survivors to be rescued. A scene that was cut (wrongly in my opinion) shows him tossing deck chairs overboard for people in the water to cling onto. This was based on fact.
RIP to the Composer, James Horner
Yes, my absolute favorite composer 😭
I feel like I didn’t know he passed away and that makes me really sad. But it happened in the Before Times of 2015 so I might have just forgotten
What????? When did he pass???
@ 2015, plane crash
They guy who shot himself in the head was 1st officer Murdoch. He did fire his gun into the air, but there’s no evidence that he killed anyone. He was last seen trying to free a boat from the davits when Titanic dove for the bottom. He was man responsible for saving the majority of people that night and James Cameron has apologized to murdochs family, as the man saved over 300 people that night. He died in the sinking. RIP
_59:26__ Random tidbit about the temperature of the water when the Titanic sunk: The water temperature was estimated to be around 28° Fahrenheit (-2° Celsius)_
Pobre gente , horrible muerte 😢
James Cameron is a master filmmaker. Doesn't matter what genre. The fact that he can do this movie, and also do Terminator and Aliens is amazing.
And "Avatar".
There's so many details in this. Like the couple in the bed, they were Ida and Isidor Straus - owners of Macy's. Isidor wanted Ida to get a boat, but she refused to abandon his lifelong companion. So they lived and died together.
Benjamin Guggenhein, the man who put his best clothes and asked for a whiskey, really happened, too.
The band playing until the end, too.
Survivors reported that the quartet played until the very end and one of the last songs they played was Nearer My God To Thee.
yeah heard that story from a survivor too... she would ran out of church when she heard it afterwards. they played it at my grandfather's funeral, with a men choir singing... I love that song.
i love how ash seemed like a kid, how excited he got throughout this movie.
I can never not cry at Jack’s death. “Dawson. Rose Dawson.” Just a knife to my heart every time.
I don't know whats worse, Jack's final words to Rose or Rose realizing that Jack is gone.
I also love how, from a practical perspective, taking Jack's surname put one more welcome obstacle between Rose and Cal and her mother possibly finding her again.
James Cameron created Jack and Rose so he could fully exploit them to pull at our emotions without ANY hangups about disrespecting the privacy of real passengers.
He ended up catching heat for his portray of Ismay (the guy who pushed Smith to go faster) and Murdoch (the crew member who shot a passenger), both of whom were real people, neither of whom did what the movie suggests they did.
They were sort of copied fro the Robert Wagner Audrey Dalton Characters on the 1953 Version of "Titanic" Rich Girl, Average Guy!
actually Ismay and the Captain's conversation in the movie IS based off an over-heard conversation from one of the first class survivors testimony's. Though of course, it's unclear if this is what actually happened or if the survivor was hyperbolic in what they heard or if it happened at all. A lot of the testimonies were heavily questioned at the time, especially the ones where people claimed to see the Titanic split in two, which couldn't be confirmed until they found the Titanic in the 80s.
@ The difference is that ONE passenger claimed to have overheard the conservation, and numerous passengers reported the split.
@@derbydriver that's why I mentioned it's very unclear if that convo ever did actually happen but it is why the conversation is phrased/written the way it is in the movie-- because of the report.
very clever. I was wondering how he found such a perfect story to fit in Titanic.
19:38 “…I will arch my back like the titanic.” Daddy chill indeed 🤌🏻😂
that comment made me howl with laughter
I remember literally catching my breath when the ship sinks completely when I saw the movie in the Theatre.
“Oh look, Scorpio’s being Venus.” 😂 I’m dead
"Meeting" 😊
Great movie, still is after nearly 30 years. ♥🚢
god i feel old lol
@@MATTHEW-rp3kq you are still young, don't let a number decide your life! ♥
Your banters are the best! hahahahaha always makes me laugh! hahahaha love from the Philippines
21:23 “Jack watches Drake and Josh” 🤣🗣️🗣️🗣️
I've always believed the door thing at the end was less about the physical space on the door and more about the weight. I think it would have sank with them both on it. Rose only survived because she was out of the water.
This. It's the one thing about Titanic that drives me crazy. People don't seem to get that it wasn't about the space. It would've been too much weight and not enough surface area to keep it floating. And sure, they could've taken turns, but they likely both would've died then.
To me its about not having the energy to keep trying, you are exhausted and freezing cold, you body contracts and wants to conserve energy so their bodies were physically working against them getting on again and again
Editing out the ending when she died and was reunited with everyone on the ship is criminal...
Young Leo made Ash question his sexuality lmao
He's right, way more people were obsessed with Leo back then than they were with Kate
My classmates always wanted me to draw Leo for them haha, but I liked Fabrizio way better lol
Nah he came across too much as a pretty boy in this film. Especially in the 90s. Everyone made fun of him for being a wuss. Took him years to get rid of that perception.
Oh man, seeing Ash experience the "they both can fit" moment for the first time was quite a sight
*Everything involving the Titanic is factual for the most part, including all the passengers and crew; everything involving Jack, Rose, her family, and Jacks friends is fictional, including the diamond.*
08:47 "the best loss he ever had" this is why I love Ash, absolutely spot on
The Co-owner of Macy's decided to stay on Titanic so someone else could have his seat on the lifeboat. His wife stayed by his side. Both of course died. Two legends. Now that's a love story.
21:11 A Nickelodeon was a type of moving picture show before movies were a thing. It cost a nickel to watch it, hence the name. It was kind of like a jukebox where you could look through a lense and spin a handle and the images would flip through making it look like it was moving.
18:05 I never thought I'd be belly laughing watching the Titanic 😅😂 Ash, omg, that had no business being this funny!!
I love you two! ❤ Keep it coming. Your channels are amazing!
