You said you were scared of growing old, and looking back at your young photos. Don't be. Growing old is a gift that is denied to far too many along the way. Instead of worrying about growing old, change the script in your mind. "WHEN I am older, and I look back at photos of younger me, what is it that I might think fondly on from this time in my life, and what might I wish I had done more or less of?" And then focus on getting more or less of that thing in your life, and doing more of the things that you know you will look back fondly on. Be kinder to yourself. Indulge in the nerdy or the unpopular thing that gives you simple joys. Like for me I really love the first whiff of opening the seal on a box of black tea, getting the smell of the air of the tea's home country in your nostrils right there with that smell. Don't know why that does it for me, as I don't drink much tea, but I do drink tea more because I want that smell every so often in my life for the dopamine hit. That's some eccentric old-person stuff right there, but that's only because when you get older if you lived to the fullest every step to get there, you don't care how weird or quirky it is, you know what gives you joy and you live to get the most of those little moments in your life. So be daring or scandalous now, because whatever your self image might project in terms of doubts now? They will disappear from your eyes when you look back years later. You will see only the gift of your youth. And have only the memories to comfort you that you take the time to make for yourself, today. Don't be afraid of getting old. It's a privilege denied to too many.
Absolutely. That doesn't mean relishing everything about growing old-for there are surely less pleasant aspects of it-but it does mean recognizing the fortune that so many who never made it there would have liked to enjoy. If a 10-year-old cancer patient can face his disease stoically, then surely the rest of us can face old age with gratitude.
I'm the youngest and the one who has had to fight since day 1. Actually 2 months early cause I had the cord around my neck twice and I was barely alive. Mother nature has tried in other ways since and I'm still here. The healthy ones in my family gone Mom - 52 (4 days after her b day) Dad - 75 (3 days after his b day) Sister - 58 (almost made it to her 59th bday) I just turned 57. I'm just waiting to see what happens Enjoy your life to the fullest. It can be taken away before you're ready
A lot of people miss the most important point of this movie: Rose did keep her promise to Jack to "Never let go". Of life!!!! The irony that Rose was rich and suicidal and Jack poor but as hungry for life as someone can get. And in the end he died because of this terrible tragedy. He made his peace with it as long as Rose would grow old, with a good life and a peaceful death. And that is exactly what happened. She made sure to keep her promise to the man that saved her in "every way" a person can save another. She married a good and nice man and had a child with him because that is what Jack would have wanted for her.
@@5calambres I never said her husband was meaningless to her. But the movie isn’t about her relationship with her husband; it’s about her relationship with Jack, and with the Titanic’s sinking. It wouldn’t be narratively satisfying to see her reunite with a man we never met before. If you want to get technical about it, then perhaps she reunited with Jack first because he was the spirit nearest to her when she died? You could see it as all the ghosts are inside the shipwreck where they died, and Rose, dying just above the shipwreck, goes to them first because they’re right there. The bright white light at the end could be seen as all of them finally moving on from that purgatory to the next world. She’ll see her husband there.
I never get, why people get emotional over this ending. Its the most messed up ending in movie history. She lived over 100 years, had a husband, kids, grandkids, possible bros and sis in law and yet, when she died, she saif FU to all of them and choose to spend the afterlife on a ship she didnt like "It was a slave ship" with people she had known for 3 days, if at all....WTF...
@@thomasnieswandt8805first of all, it’s never said that she died at the end of the movie, I read that it’s open for interpretation and for me in fact, she just dreamed of it. Secondly, we see a young Rose back on the ship, not an old one, hence that was not her living the afterlife with Jack, but a symbol, a sense of peace with all the passengers reunited for one last time, celebrating an everlasting love. Tragedy divided them, and not their own decisions, Rose kept her promise and her love for him alive, although she found love afterwards. It doesn’t mean that she loved Jack more than her husband, but that she was full of gratitude towards him cause he gave her the courage to live the life she always wanted.
I was there on opening night in 1997. Titanic is still the greatest movie-going experience of my life. When they kissed on the bow, i KNEW i was watching history in the making. Think about how unexpected the success of Titanic was. Everyone in 1997 was obsessed with Star Wars thanks to the awful re-releases.. Titanic didnt have an established IP like the Marvel movies. Everyone went into Titanic knowing that the ship was going to sink. The film even elaborates on how Titanic sank. The movie had so much working against it. But because of James Camerons revolutionary use of 3D storytelling, he blew everyone away. Cameron brilliantly and effectively transported everyone in the audience back to 1912 to live this experience alongside Jack and Rose. To me as an epic romance, Titanic is just as great, timeless and iconic as Casablanca and Gone With The Wind. Jacks death is as historical as Rhett walking out on Scarlett and Ilsa leaving Rick on the plane. The end to Titanic is one of the best endings in film history. And it came out in my lifetime.
@@wadumin I heard that one of the officers had a key to the binoculars and was replaced last minute or so and haven't returned the key hence making them have to look normally giving them even less time to turn then they should
When I saw this in theatres the power went out right when the ships power went out 😝 it was super scary lol, but got free tickets to come and see it again 😊
Fun fact officer Murdoch was portrayed so badly that it ruined his reputation as a hero and his family sued James Cameron for him portraying him as a villain
Yes, it was a lack of sensibility to portray such harsh deeds to a real life person who for all accounts gave his life in the trying of saving other's people lives.
I've never thought of Murdoch as a villain to be honest. All in all, he seemed like a caring officer most of the time. We never actually see him accepting the bribe. Hockley just shoves the money in his pocket and Murdoch throws it back in his face later. He clearly didn't WANT to shoot Tommy and couldn't live with the guilt. Considering the circumstances, all his actions are understandable to me. I do agree though that Cameron shouldn't have had him potrayed the way he did.
To be honest I don’t view nor saw Officer Murdoch as a villain or some sort, I understand his frustration and the helplessness of the situation and I honestly I feel for him, my heart goes to him and it hurts to see him die. It hurts to see all the people who tried to make the situation better in some way, they did all of their best to save people.
I like that Cameron made Murdoch prominent in the heaven scene, second only to Mr Andrews in line waiting to welcome Rose to be reunited with Jack. He could have put Tommy, Fabi or the captain there but it's a nice touch that he put Murdoch.
The kind rich lady who helped Jack with a suit for his first dinner with Rose and her family was Margaret Brown (played by Kathy Bates in this movie). She is also known as "the unsinkable Molly Brown," due to being a survivor of the Titanic sinking. She could relate to Jack because she came from humble beginnings. She was poor until oil was discovered on her land. But the sudden wealth didn't change her modest character. That's why the other rich ladies looked down on her. The other ladies were born into wealth and snobbery. Molly Brown was not. Molly Brown died in her sleep, in New York City, 1932 at the age of 65. In 1964 a movie was released called "The Unsinkable Molly Brown", about her life and her time on the Titanic. Debbie Reynolds, a very famous American actress of the time, played the lead role, Molly Brown.
Margaret Brown never went by the name Molly in her life. As a child she went by Maggie, and close friends called her that in adulthood. As a socialite she always went by Margaret. "Molly Brown" first popped up in a book and later a musical than book.
Actually it was silver and not oil that her husband discovered on their land...a silver mine! Yes, you should watch the movie "The Unsinkable Molly Brown" with Debbie Reynolds. It's a wonderful musical and I haven't seen any reactors choose it yet.
The 1964 movie version of THE UNSINKABLE MOLLY BROWN was based on the 1960 Broadway musical of the same title, which starred Tammy Grimes in the title role.
Hi friends! Yes, there was footage of the real Titanic in the intro. The frames for the glass windows on the doors to the upper class lounge area, for one, were real Titanic footage. The film looks more 'raw' for the snapshots that they show.
That sepia intro is not the footage of the real Titanic. If you're referring to the wreckage... It's a mixture of the actual wreckage footage and miniatures. Some shots are impossible to do at that depth and it's too dangerous to get into the deeper parts of the actual wreckage
Thank you fot saying that - it always drives me mad when someone doesn’t know something but still answers. Just say you don’t know!!! Unless you don’t know you don’t know - that’s a bummer
The real/model shots of the wreck can be distinguished with the fact that the real wreck shots are slightly softer focus. In most of the shots where you only see the ship, and some of the ones where you only see one of the submersibles are real. All of the ones where you see both of the submersibles are models.
@@arlenehernandez1562The first 10 seconds of this clip has Kate Winslet saying the sunset shot was real. ua-cam.com/video/QV3CAvAgono/v-deo.htmlsi=pBRVPgYbWqb0-If3
@@arlenehernandez1562 I think it was a mix of both. They shot it with an amazing sunset, but they only used one or two shots from it because they scrambled to shoot the scene, and the shot was out of focus.
The majority of the film was in fact filmed at Baja Studios in Mexico with soundstages and set pieces. The sunset was in fact added with CGI. I remember because of the making of the film on the Blu-ray behind the scenes documentary.
James Cameron, the director, went down to titanic shipwreck in a submersible for the movie. He also drew all the pictures in the movie including the Rose drawing. Yes, Leo didn’t actually draw it.James also went down to the deepest part of the ocean, the Mariana’s trench. James Cameron is amazing.
Poor James Cameron. Making this film was hell on Earth for him on a number of levels. Everyone in the press thought it was going to be terrible and flop hard (obviously the very opposite happened). On the very last day of principal photography when the final shot was done, Cameron grabbed a bottle of vodka and drank it all while sitting down in front of the last massive set they had built before it had to be torn down. He had a two hour drive and several months of extremely hard post-production ahead of him. He fell asleep in the back as soon as the car door closed.
@@wadumin not only that, but the fact that James Cameron originally did not want a movie song. the composer (secrelty) wrote a song, and played it for celine dion while she was visiting las vegas. Dion originally did not like the song at all, her husband and manager renee angelil eventually convinced dion to record a demo. The day she recorded the demo she wasn't feeling her best and she did one take practice, that they took, built the orhcestra around and played for cameron when he was in a good mood. SO the sountrack we here celine dion singing is her one take demo.
@Krobra91 You're right, and James Horner was a genius for sticking with his gut that a song at the end was the ideal way to wrap the movie up instead of more orchestral music. I prefer the demo version of the song than the studio release because of its raw power that didn't need embellishments. James Horner was completely deserving of the Oscars that year for best score and song! I wish he was still alive today to create more beautiful work and he'll always be my favorite musician :( RIP Mr. Horner 1953-2015
Models of the ship were built that were 45 feet long and 65 feet long which had sections that could be separated and a 744 foot long exterior was built. The climactic scene, which features the breakup of the ship directly before it sinks as well as its final plunge to the bottom of the Atlantic, involved a tilting full-sized set, 150 extras, and 100 stunt performers.
A sad thing I read was that one of the survivors ended up living near a baseball stadium in Detroit and he hated game days. The sound of the cheering crowd reminded him of the screaming people in the water during the sinking...
47:07 Fun fact: that Catholic Priest really existed. His name was Thomas Byles. He was travelling to New York in order to officiate his brother's wedding. During the sinking, he was offered two times to get into a lifeboat but he refused. He helped passengers from third class (and also from the second and the first one) to get into the boats, and stayed with the ones who couldn't leave the ship. Some people confesed and the Priest gave absolution of sins, at the beggining in an individual way and at the last moments he gave a general absolution (there was no more time). So, basically that scene in which they are praying the rosary really occured, and at the end they prayed the Act of Contrition. They were asking for forgiveness for their souls and taking comfort in the word of the Lord, they were literally preparing for the "end" 🥺🥲 Thomas Byles died that night, he literally sacrificed himself 😢 Also, it is said that, there were like 100 people and from different religions, all together praying the rosary
The guy in white next to Rose and Jack on the stern, was also real. He was the Titanic's Head Baker, Charles Joughin. He rode the stern down to the water, then survived nearly two hours in the water before being picked up by the overturned Collapsible B lifeboat. Story is the amount of alcohol he consumed as the ship sank helped keep him alive.
My grandmother was born exactly two months after the Titanic sank. She passed back in 2005 at 93, but she would have been 112 now. I was in junior high when this originally came out and I remember showings being sold out for WEEKS. I saw it three times, and at one of the showings the theater actually handed out travel packs of Kleenex! 😅
The elderly couple who perished in their bed were real. The woman refused to get on a boat without her husband 😢 (Somewhat like the fictional jack & rose)
Isidor Strauss and his wife. Always inspired me to be a good person. But drowning in icy water? I would drink myself to death in 3 minutes before enduring that!!
@@5calambres In one of the final scenes, the baker who was clinging to the rails next to Jack and Rose as the ship sank, drinking from his flask, was real, too. He survived despite being in the freezing water for quite a long time. He believed that he owed his survival to the fact that he was drunk, so that his body didn't feel the effect of the coldness of the water.
Rose didn't live without Jack, not a single minute of her life. A beautiful love story, a horrible tragedy, and a solid glimpse into the many facets of our humanity. Thanks for sharing your reactions!
They did as much of this practically as possible. He had it all built. At that point it was the biggest water tank ever used. Having watched the filming of some of the sinking how the hell no one drowned I’ll never know. He also had that first class staircase rebuilt to exact specs, the carpet in the first class dining hall was the exact carpet type/pattern made by the same company. James Cameron always tried for excellence. This was his masterpiece. Before Avatar that is (but that’s a completely different animal being mostly CG)
Interesting Fact: James Cameron showed the Titanic hitting the iceberg and the way the ship began to sink, including how it split into two parts, but he also featured how long it took for it to sink in a subtle way: all the scenes set *in* the ship are two hours and 40 minutes long, which is how long it took for the Titanic to go down. Also, when Rose passes and meets Jack on the staircase, the clock shows *2:20* which is the exact time the Titanic slipped below the waves. Of the 2,240 passengers and crew on board the Titanic, 705-706 people survived the ship's sinking.
Even as 9-10 year old I understood they both couldn't fit. I knew how floats easily flipped the same way. Not to mention the water is _freezing,_ they are tired, and it _hurts_ being in that cold water. They can't afford to waste any more energy or lose anymore body heat even if they could both get on it.
Titanic is actually a dark comedy in that we spend 3 hours hoping Jack survives when the beginning of the film clearly reveals that he didn't since Rose's last name isn't Dawson. Also, many people have said that Jack & Rose could have both fit on top of the door, but their combined weight would have submerged it, so Jack had to stay off of it to keep Rose mostly dry & not in freezing water. Finally, my guess is that if Jack had survived, he & Rose would have sold Cal's necklace & ran off together but still having her mother & Cal believe they are dead so they couldn't go after them.
@jessetorres8738 At the beginning of the film it is clearly revealed that Rose's name WAS Rose Dawson. When the elderly Rose came aboard the search vessel "Keldysh", Lewis says to Brock (Bill Paxton) as they are walking "Her name was Rose *Dawson* back then. They move to Cedar Rapids and she punches out a couple of kids."
Rose would have had to sell it on the black market to some rich aristocrat. The necklace was insured, no doubt Cal's insurance company would have started an investigation. The first suspect would have been Cal. The second would have been Rose. They would have moved the world to find her to get it back. That's where the movie's logic breaks down with regard to the necklace.
The way I laughed when he said, "Is that his number?" at the note from Jack. My dude 😂😂 I used to watch this movie every year when I was a kid because one of the national broadcast stations in my country just loved this money awouldill play on Sunday night like three times per year😂 The way little old me cried with it was impressive
James Cameron went above and beyond with the set pieces for this movie. Not only did he dive down to the bottom of the ocean to get real footage of the sunken Titanic, but he made a massive 1:1 scale model (or close to it) of the ship for all his wide shots. It's the kind of extreme practical movie making that you don't see done anymore.
Not even close to the real size. But still huge. And only the right side. So when they filmed the scene on the docks where the titanics left side was showed, they mirrored the footage. Becquse of that, every written word like on the clothes or the taxi, everything was written(printed) mirrored.
I love watching people reacting to this beautiful movie, and you two are probably my favorite so far. This was the first movie I saw in a cinema with my mom when I was 6 (yeah, my mom took me to this :)) ) But neither of us regretted one bit! It was a life-changing experience to me. I came out of there a changed little kid :)) in the best way. I decided that I wanted to become an artist by how inspired I felt . And now I am living that dream. You guys were so sweet and emphatic and entertaining! Great job! Maybe you could also do a reaction to behind the scene documentaries some day. There's some super interesting ones out there, totally recommend it if you're curious how Cameron created this masterpiece.
The two old people shown cuddling in bed as it floods are based on a real couple. Isidor Straus and his wife, the original owner of Macys. He was states as saying that he would not take up a spot that could go to someone else, and his wife refused to leave his side. They both gave up their millionaire lifestyles so that they did not take a space someone else could have. They chose to stay on the ship even though they both had a spot out.
Straus was not quite the original owner of Macy's, which had been founded by R.H. Macy in 1858. Isidor Straus and his brother Nathan purchased the store from the Macy family in 1895.
Great reaction! I absolutely love it. I've been watching Titanic since it was released and I still cry. This is the movie of my life. I love how both of you were opened to the stories. Thank U for sharing your reaction
This movie came out on December 19, 1997, as well as the James Bond film Tomorrow Never Dies (1997). Also, this movie was released on the day that SilkAir Flight 185 crashed into the Musi River in Palembang, Indonesia, killing all 104 passengers and crew onboard. 😢💔 And five years before I was born! 😊❤️
Hate to correct you sir, but yes, the footage in the beginning is in fact the real ship, Cameron was obsessed with the Titanic and they’ve sent many subs down to get footage. Side note: the drawings you see in jacks book and that of Rose nude, were drawn by Cameron himself.😊
FUN FACTS: James Cameron, Leonardo DiCaprio, Kate Winslet & Celine Dion contributed a combined amount of $30,000 to help with the financial support fund to the youngest Titanic survivor Millvina Dean. Millvina Dean was 2 months old when she was on the Titanic with her family. Millvina died in 2009 at the age of 97. The movie characters Margaret "Molly" Brown, Thomas Andrews, Capt. Edward J. Smith, Bruce Ismay, John Jacob Astor & many more are based on the real-life victims & survivors, by the same name, of the Titanic. James Cameron received official certification & license to take a team to the bottom of the Atlantic ocean to record footage of the Titanic multiple times. So the footage at the beginning of the movie is real.
People like to argue about the debris thing, that wooden door. But the simple truth is, it was only able to carry one of them. It's not about the space but the weight the two would have put on it, leaving both of them in the freezing water.
Oh this movie has such a special place in my heart. I watched it for the first time on vhs at my mamas way back in the early 2000s. When I got older I took media and film studies at secondary school and chose this movie as my focus, for one of my projects on perspective of character I took each of the main characters and made edits so to speak of the e movie through their eyes. So wish I had the memory stick with that project on
It's crazy that Jack and Rose were on the stern of the boat when it sunk, and they met on the stern of the boat when she was threatening suicide. It's also crazy that Rose told Cal (after Jack saved her from falling overboard) that she was at the stern of the boat to get a look at the propellers, and that's why she slipped. In the end, she got a really good look at those propellers. Seeing those giant propellers in the air like that was extra eerie. R.I.P., TITANIC VICTIMS 🌊🛟🚢🪦🛶🌊🛟🚢🪦🛶🌊
Fun Fact: Celine Dion did NOT want to perform "My Heart Will Go On" thanks to already having recorded "Beauty and The Beast", but it wound up making her a globally-recognized name thanks to this movie's popularity.
Some fun facts: 1. There WERE enough lifeboats, according to safety regulation at the time. In fact, Titanic had 4 more than required. But the boats were intended to be shuttles, to take a load of passengers to safety and return for more - not to float in the water all night. Obviously, that was a dumb plan and the regulations were changed after Titanic sank. 2. Nobody was ever intentionally locked inside the ship. Passengers did get lost and may have wandered into areas that were closed off, but gates were never used to keep anyone from escaping. 3. It’s never been confirmed that Bruce Ismay encouraged Captain Smith to speed up. That was a rumor based off an overheard conversation. Ismay earned shame for surviving when so many died, but we don’t know if he actually helped create the conditions for the crash. 4. Murdoch never shot anyone, including himself. 5. The ship very likely did not stand fully upright at any point, and very likely broke in half at a much more shallow angle. It was nearly pitch black outside that night. Once the lights went out, witnesses on the lifeboats could only make out the silhouette of Titanic by the way it blocked out the stars on the horizon behind it. 6. Titanic had two sister ships- an older sister named Olympic, and a younger sister named Brittanic. Olympic collided with a naval vessel before titanic was ever built, and steel meant for the construction of titanic was used to repair it. Olympic went on to serve until the 30’s, even doing a stint as an armed troop transport in WW1, during which time it rammed and sank a German U-Boat. Brittanic was modified during its construction to amend the safety flaws discovered in Titanic’s sinking, including adding enough lifeboats for EVERYONE and a faster deployment system, a taller double hull so of the outer skin was pierced like titanic, the inner would prevent flooding, bulkheads that went ALL the way up to the main deck so water couldn’t spill over them, and more. Brittanic hit a sea mine and sank in 1916, but ALL passengers were able to safely evacuate in a fraction of the time it took a third of Titanic’s. Only 30 people died on Brittanic and most of them were due to their lifeboats hitting the spinning propeller. 7. Violet Jessop was aboard all 3 of these ships, and survived each incident.
Ismay Smith conversation was overheard by only one person, Elizabeth Lines. From her testimony, he was discussing about Titanic's perfomance and comparing it to Olympic. He was merely making an observation that Titanic would reach New York earlier than planned. There was never an unusual increase in speed after that conversation. Titanic was doing her service speed. Ismay did plan for a speed run, Monday afternoon or Tuesday morning, given the weather was clear. But it was only discussed with chief Engineer Bell at Queenstown. This information is based on Ismay's testimony.
Although the britannic being tougher than the titanic, it sank because the crew had forgotten to close the watertight doors, and since the ship was still moving... it didnt help that much, since the captain had not been warned about lifeboats being launched it caused confusion and the lifeboat ended up at the port propeller driven by the second reciprocating triple expansion 4-cylinder steam engine that was still up and running, hence it sank so fast, leaving engines on caused water to flood the ship faster, and the watertight doors being open meant the water was still entering, which pulled the ship to an unrecoverable list, sinking faster and faster each time, for it to finally founder at the bottom of the sea. Not before cracking the hull of the bow. The mine had probably damaged only 2 compartments, and the britannic could float with 6 compartments pierced!
@@Fanblade they were in the middle of a shift change. That's why doors were open. The explosion warped the nearby bulkhead, preventing doors from closing. Open portholes also played a part.
Anita: "it`s such a famous romance movie!! 🥰🥰" Me, laughing: "romance movie, she said .... 😂😂" Anita later: 😳" I thought this was a romance movie ..." * sad pikachu face * Some more information for you - Characters that really existed: - Bruce Ismay (the one who didn`t know Freud); survived. He was CEO of the White Star Line, so kinda the owner of the ship. - Thomas Andrews, died. Naval architect at White Star Line, chief engineer of the Titanic. - Benjamin Guggenheim, died. The one "well dressed for going down" - that line is an actual quote from him from that situation. Super-rich Businessman and, I think the brother of the founder of the Guggenheim museum. - John Jacob Astor IV, died. Belonged to the Astor familay (who owned the Waldorf-Astoria hotel), and was one of the richest people in the world. His very young wife, Madeleine, survived. - Isidor Strauss + wife Ida, died. Politician and businessman - they were that old couple dying in their bed. - Capt. Smith, died. - Molly Brown, survived. - Thomas Byles, died. The priest on deck during the sinking actually existed and was reportedly praying the whole time. - Colonel Archibald Gracie, survived. Member of a very rich business family, became a popular author and wrote a book about the sinking. - Lieutenant Murdoch, died. The one who shot Fabrizios friend and then shot himself. According to eyewitnesses, the reallife Murdoch actually did that. - Lieutenant Lightoller, survived. One of the officers the Captain spoke with about ice warnings. He also was the idiot who passed the order that no man was allowed to enter the life-boats, and to only fill them by 50%. Wikipedia: "Lightoller interpreted Smith's order for "the evacuation of women and children" as essentially "women and children only". As a result, Lightoller lowered lifeboats with empty seats if there were no women and children waiting to board, meaning to fill them to capacity once they had reached the water." - Heart of the ocean: it´s based on the reallife Hope diamond, which belonged to King Louis XIV. It´s worth around 300 million today. When the movie came out in late 1997, there were 7 survivors left alive. The last one, Millvina Dean, died in 2009, age 97. She was 2 months old when the titanic sank. Out of 2.208 passengers, 712 survived. So there are no Titanic survivors alive anymore.
This movie is the source of one of the modern day proverbs . “Find you a rose in life…” find you someone who will jump back onto a sinking ship to be with you because she’s your co pilot …
I love that you caught that other souls who perished were on the ship when Rose & Jack were "reunited". I'm not crying, you're crying.............. 💔 The soundtrack for this movie is a central character of the story - I listened to it constantly before seeing the movie, we all did, and when I finally saw that first scene, bam. the feels. I remember it was a thing to see how many times you got to the theater to see it. There are a handful of movies that should be re-released in theaters, and this is absolutely a top pick. So glad you picked this - and for sharing that with us.
this is the biggest movie ever made in my opinion... the sets they build, a replica of the ship with 90% of the real size... the level of detail... it's a masterpiece
Movie inspector here. Though jack and rose was a fiction most of the narrative about other passengers were true in real life. There was this musician band who kept on playing till the ship sank. The two couple holding together in bed accepting their fate is also true. The rich gentleman who accepted his death in all luxury is also true, his name was john jacob astor i guess he was the richest in the world at that time. U can also research the personalties that died in youtube documentaries. James cameron has done a fantastic job to make us feel how this real individuals died.
Yes, James Cameron did explore the real Titanic wreckage to create his film Titanic (1997). His interest in the ship and its tragic history motivated him to go far beyond typical research methods for the movie. Here are the detailed steps and facts about his exploration: 1. First Dives to the Wreck: Cameron conducted multiple deep-sea dives to the wreck, located about 2.5 miles (4 kilometers) underwater in the North Atlantic. He worked closely with the Russian research vessel Akademik Mstislav Keldysh and its two submersibles, Mir 1 and Mir 2, which could reach such depths. He reportedly made twelve dives to the Titanic wreck, with some dives lasting over 16 hours. 2. Filming Challenges: Filming at the Titanic wreck presented extreme challenges. The intense pressure and pitch-dark environment required specialized lighting and camera equipment. Cameron’s team developed high-definition cameras specifically for deep-sea exploration, capable of withstanding the immense water pressure. His technical innovations in lighting and filming in the deep sea set a new standard for underwater cinematography. 3. Detailed Reconstruction of Titanic’s Interiors: To bring authenticity to his film, Cameron carefully studied the Titanic’s layout, furniture, and decorations. His research included not only observing the actual wreck but also working with historians and studying period photographs. The production recreated the ship’s grand staircase, dining rooms, and other key areas with stunning accuracy. 4. Subsequent Dives and Documentaries: Cameron’s fascination with the Titanic didn’t end after the movie. He continued to explore the wreck over the years, producing documentaries such as Ghosts of the Abyss (2003) and Last Mysteries of the Titanic (2005). These projects used more advanced robotic and 3D camera technology, revealing parts of the Titanic that had never been seen before. 5. Environmental Impact Considerations: Cameron's team also followed protocols to minimize their environmental impact on the wreck site. The Titanic, a UNESCO-protected site, requires that divers and researchers respect its preservation status. James Cameron's commitment to authenticity led him to combine cinematic creativity with real-world exploration. His approach offered audiences not only a dramatic retelling of the Titanic’s story but also a genuine look at the wreck itself.
La mejor reacción de Titanic que ví. Se nota que saben mucho de cine. Les cuento que la experiencia de ver Titanic en cines llenos, riendo primero y luego llorando, fue única. Saludos desde Argentina!
At the end Rose dies in her sleep while we see photos of her and her spirit returns to Jack and the other passengers who died. She gets to be with Jack forever. Footage at the beginning was the real ship.
My favorite movie of all time! I instantly became passionate about the real ship because of this film right after I saw it for the first time. One fond memory I have about it is around the time this movie first came out, a museum exhibit of artifacts that were recovered from the actual ship came to Texas. My parents couldn’t take me to see it because it was kind of expensive, but a friend of mine was able to go. And the neatest thing he saw there was a butterfly hair comb pin just like the one Rose had in the movie, except one of the wings was broken off. Pretty cool ❤❤❤
Note: What happened on the Titanic, letting the women and children go first, WAS A ONCE IN A LIFETIME THING. Literally, in every other ship, women and children died more often then the the men because the men were stronger and let themselves get on the boats first. Look it up!
It wasn’t Thomas Andrews fault, nor he has any “mistakes” regarding the ship, It’s the incompetence of Ismay that sealed the fate of the ship and the 1,500 souls. I feel for him honestly and I understand the hopelessness & guilt that he shouldn’t have carried. The sheer arrogance of Ismay and how many times Mr. Andrews words were overruled about the life boats and the “making headlines” for the sake of the egotistic selfish elite people, it’s deliberately frustrating.
“20th Century Fox acquired 40 acres of waterfront south of Playas de Rosarito in Mexico and began building a new studio on May 31, 1996. A horizon tank of 17 million gallons was built for the exterior of the reconstructed ship, providing 270 degrees of ocean view. The ship was built to full scale, but redundant sections on the superstructure were removed for the ship The sets representing the interior rooms of the Titanic were reproduced exactly using photographs and plans from the Titanic's builders. The Grand Staircase, which features prominently in the film, was recreated to a high standard, though it was widened 30% compared to the original and reinforced with steel girders to fit in the tank, with the remaining sections filled with digital models.”
I never even thought about that ending where it shower her in the bed and then the ship rebuilding and her seeing everybody that passed away and Jack It never once crossed my mind that she passed away right there at the end my mind is officially blown
The elderly couple lying on the bed together as the water came in were a real Couple who actually did that. She wouldn’t leave him on the ship, so they died together. 💔
The love story in the first half of the movie is so well done and captivating that I actually forget that the second half is just despair, death and sadness. And I just found your channel but I already enjoyed it :) no need to hold the tears and "keep it together", I personally want to watch reactors.... React!
I was thinking the same thing. Maybe Jack was giving his number to Rose so she could put it in her cell phone or maybe he was going to give her his email address. 😊
@ It was a joke, your not to bright. Also, the telegraph had been around for a long time by 1912, in fact, since the middle of the 19th century so it wasn’t barely a thing.
@@angeltech1 Yeah ik it was a joke, but the telegraph was just becoming popular, the titanic was able to test the 400km radius antennas, but it was still a bit new
The iconic door. James Cameron actually did several tests with real people in water that was still 25 degrees warmer than the temperature of the water. Only one test worked where Jack, or the man playing Jack, survived. But that was all predetermined. There was no way Jack would survive.
I loved reading about Titantic as a kid, I did book reports on it at school. I saw it in theaters when I was 20 and as soon as the iceberg appeared I left because I couldn't watch it sink, lol. It was several years later before I saw the ending. I realize now that the same terror was the same for every ship that sank throughout the history of ships.
Yes, director James Cameron DID go down to the actual Titanic wreckage on the ocean floor. He has been interested in exploring the Titanic for a long time.
It's a mixture of the actual wreckage footage and miniatures. Some shots are impossible to do at that depth and it's too dangerous to get into the deeper parts of the actual wreckage
Fun fact about this film: James Cameron has said that he wanted the money more to dive the wreck, than to make the film. Those Mir submersibles are real, and Cameron took them down to the wreck several times. Much of the footage of the wreck is shot with a model of the ship in a studio, but there are shots of the real thing in the film, as well. These can usually be identified as being more blue, and obviously they tend not to show any submarines (since the cameras were focused on Titanic). James Cameron was, for a time, considered the world's foremost leading expert on the Titanic, leading many experiments and theories on how she sank and what happeneds to put the pieces of the wreck where they are. Many of his theories have since been disproven, but the research he did remains useful and invaluable to the community. Titanic (1997) was the first film ever made to depict the chaotic breakup of Titanic, every film before it showed the ship slipping gracefully into the waves in one piece. The breakup was shot using a 30-foot long model of Titanic's stern, constructed of balsa wood and lead plating, and had to be shot twice, with the crew reassembling the broken model as best they could between takes. The flooding of the Grand Staircase and theimplosion of the dome were shot practically, and in one take out of necessity. Actors who participated in the shot were warned of the legitimate dangers of shooting it and were required to sign waivers stating they were okay with it. The shot became all the more deadly when the loosely connected staircase floated to the surface and shattered, trapping several actors. Thankfully, no one was killed (though I believe injuries did occur). The stairs on Titanic were originally thought to have sat much the same way, and them floating loose was thought to be the reason they're no longer present on the wreck, though this theory today is highly contested, as it is believed that Titanic's construction varied somewhat from that of a movie set. The shots of the ship sinking with the actors running aft are real. There was a 1:1 scale set built which could tilt several degrees down to simulate sinking in real time. The shots of the ship from the exterior vary between exquisitely detailed models between 1:32 and 1:8 in scale, andthe full scale set. Titanic is easily one of the most intricate films ever made, with sets and effects that (mostly) still hold up today.
This video made me sub to you guys. Loved this soo much, and you guys were so funny reacting to this. I loved how sad you guys got, and it's always fun for me to watch somebody else watching this movie, especially for the first time. Thanks for doing it.
Should also mention, there was enough room for jack on the door/wood it was about buoyancy, not size, if jack would have gotten on with rose they both would have died, so jack made the decision to let rose have it.
Freud is one of the more influential figures of the 20th century. “Sigmund Freud (6 May 1856 - 23 Sept 1939) was an Austrian neurologist and the founder of psychoanalysis. Freud lived and worked in Vienna having set up his clinical practice there in 1886. In 1930, Freud received the Goethe Prize in recognition of his contributions to psychology and German literary culture. In January 1933, the Nazi Party took control of Germany, and Freud's books were prominent among those they burned. Following the German annexation of Austria in March 1938, Freud left Austria to escape Nazi persecution.”
The way she said rose dawson was like they were married to each-other and as you see in very last part she was wearing white dress which simply hits like wedding dress maybe they wanted to ironically that they were going to be married afterlife
There were 2,224 people on the Titanic, but there was only enough space on the 20 lifeboats for 1,178 (or about 53%) of them, & yet only 710 (or about 32%) people survived the sinking of the ship. Also, if you haven't already, look up the 1958 film A Night To Remember since it's essentially the Titanic movie that inspired James Cameron to make his movie.
Yes! It's a brilliant read, and literary a masterpiece. I devoured it in one evening and learned plenty from it, among other thing that Jack's words "water that cold is like being stabbed by a thousand knives" is a quote from one of the surviving officers (Lightoller maybe?) about how it felt being submerged when the collapsible life boat capsized after the ship sank. Finding these little gems make the movie even more enjoyable.
They did go down to film the real ship, the footage they show to Rose was real, the outside of the ship was real, but they didn't touch anything, there are some interior shots like the cabin or the safe, those were filmed in studio James Cameron was a marine biologist, and he did not let the chance to go see the titanic, it's the reason why he made the movie
This movie was fantastic, I was so blown away the first time I saw it, I had no idea James Cameron was an expert on the Titanic. He might be hard to work with but man does he have passion in life.
Rose did learn - that WAS a great spit into jackass Cal's face LOL !!! Great reactions ! After reading about Titanic years ago, one theory is that if the ship had gone straight on into the iceberg, the damage to the ship may have been much less and it may have NOT sunk, or sank much slower. But they tried to turn and miss it and the submerged part of the iceberg ripped the forward side of the ship open, dooming the ship and causing it to sink faster. Alos, I believe that Kate Winslet developed hypothermia during the cold water scenes from all the scenes and takes, and had to be hospitalized for a time. A great cast, director and storytelling for sure !
Fun fact: kate winslet wanted to understand, if even just a fraction of what these ppl felt when they were plunged into the icy water of the atlantic, so when cameron said theyd be sure the pool water they filmed in would be warm. She insisted that it be ice cold. For authenticity. For her to be able to get a feel for what they wouldve truly felt. She didnt want to fake and act being cold and turning hypodermic, she insisted the water be ice cold.
My 10 year old self was not happy about Jack and screamed SCOOT OVER!!! Totally obsessed with this movie and Leo, I hope my mom still has the posters I had! Also notice in the ending scene, how he is dressed 🥲
They built models and were at huge pools for lots of the film. They studied pictures of her sister ship and studied the floor plans and design details from the original I believe.
Original plans are rare to find. Some missing data was filled from Olympic, from eg the master at arm's room was situated midships in Titanic. In the movie, where Jack is locked up, it has a porthole. That room is situated at port side in the movie. That was the location in Olympic.
The sunlight shots on the deck were real, no CGI. I too thought Jack could have gotten on the wood, one from each side. Considering all they went through. Mythbusters tested it and the weight of both of them the wood would go under the water. Titanic is my fave movie. Nice reaction.
With all due respect, this video reaction was worthy to watch because the guy interaction for his emotions were genuine. In 46:46 how disrespectful the woman was. They were facing certain death. In that moment it was the most helpful thing to do: to pray for their souls and their salvation. In Titanic there were three catholic priest who were offered places in the lifeboats, but they refused to go and remained in the ship to pay assistance to the passengers also regarding their spiritual needs in the very end. How ignorant and hateful was her comment!
It wasn't ignorant or hateful, you're just oversensitive. Obviously she's right and it didn't help, because those bodies were found floating, dead. People can find comfort however they want. But thinking prayer is going to save you is demonstrably false, case in point. Now go waste your time and whine somewhere else
HAIL THEODEN, KING! Yes, Capt Smith is played by Bernhard Hill. :D There are also a lot of hilarious Crossover memes. Aragorn: "The beacons! The beacons are lit! Gondor calls for aid!" Captain Smith: "And Titanic will answer!" Next pic: * Titanic rowing into Gondor *
Another real character is actually the mustached man standing on the rear of the ship, with Rose and Jack, as it goes down. Iirc he was a baker, and was in fact standing there, as the ship went down, and he survived. I assume Rose notices him - in the film - as a deliberate wink to this unlikely survivor. Also, arctic water like that will hit you like a motor-vehicle, you will have all air knocked out of you, and you will breathe only by panicked gasps, it's uncontrollable - your muscles then cramp violently, it's absolutely harrowing - it wouldn't be feasible to have actors mimick these reactions, it'd be too horrifying; if it weren't for floating vests, people would stand no chance to keep themselves upright and would drown quickly - *with* vests you're still in a state of catastrophic hypothermia
You said you were scared of growing old, and looking back at your young photos. Don't be. Growing old is a gift that is denied to far too many along the way. Instead of worrying about growing old, change the script in your mind. "WHEN I am older, and I look back at photos of younger me, what is it that I might think fondly on from this time in my life, and what might I wish I had done more or less of?" And then focus on getting more or less of that thing in your life, and doing more of the things that you know you will look back fondly on. Be kinder to yourself. Indulge in the nerdy or the unpopular thing that gives you simple joys.
Like for me I really love the first whiff of opening the seal on a box of black tea, getting the smell of the air of the tea's home country in your nostrils right there with that smell. Don't know why that does it for me, as I don't drink much tea, but I do drink tea more because I want that smell every so often in my life for the dopamine hit. That's some eccentric old-person stuff right there, but that's only because when you get older if you lived to the fullest every step to get there, you don't care how weird or quirky it is, you know what gives you joy and you live to get the most of those little moments in your life. So be daring or scandalous now, because whatever your self image might project in terms of doubts now? They will disappear from your eyes when you look back years later. You will see only the gift of your youth. And have only the memories to comfort you that you take the time to make for yourself, today.
Don't be afraid of getting old. It's a privilege denied to too many.
Absolutely. That doesn't mean relishing everything about growing old-for there are surely less pleasant aspects of it-but it does mean recognizing the fortune that so many who never made it there would have liked to enjoy. If a 10-year-old cancer patient can face his disease stoically, then surely the rest of us can face old age with gratitude.
Wow, absolutely well said, getting to grow old is a gift ❤
I'm the youngest and the one who has had to fight since day 1. Actually 2 months early cause I had the cord around my neck twice and I was barely alive. Mother nature has tried in other ways since and I'm still here.
The healthy ones in my family gone
Mom - 52 (4 days after her b day)
Dad - 75 (3 days after his b day)
Sister - 58 (almost made it to her 59th bday)
I just turned 57. I'm just waiting to see what happens
Enjoy your life to the fullest. It can be taken away before you're ready
@@andreadeamon6419 i wish good health for you my friend, and RIP to your family members who are in heaven now❤
Wow ✨
A lot of people miss the most important point of this movie:
Rose did keep her promise to Jack to "Never let go". Of life!!!! The irony that Rose was rich and suicidal and Jack poor but as hungry for life as someone can get. And in the end he died because of this terrible tragedy. He made his peace with it as long as Rose would grow old, with a good life and a peaceful death. And that is exactly what happened. She made sure to keep her promise to the man that saved her in "every way" a person can save another. She married a good and nice man and had a child with him because that is what Jack would have wanted for her.
Exactly, thanks for watching ❤
And after all those years when she died she did not return to her late husband but to a 3 day fling instead..
@@5calambres it was not a fling. Flings are meaningless. Her relationship with Jack was the opposite of meaningless.
@@12classics39 But a marriage, having kids and living a life together is? Yeah, i feel bad for your spouses.
@@5calambres I never said her husband was meaningless to her. But the movie isn’t about her relationship with her husband; it’s about her relationship with Jack, and with the Titanic’s sinking. It wouldn’t be narratively satisfying to see her reunite with a man we never met before.
If you want to get technical about it, then perhaps she reunited with Jack first because he was the spirit nearest to her when she died? You could see it as all the ghosts are inside the shipwreck where they died, and Rose, dying just above the shipwreck, goes to them first because they’re right there. The bright white light at the end could be seen as all of them finally moving on from that purgatory to the next world. She’ll see her husband there.
Jacks note at dinner “make it count, meet me at the clock.”
Rose made her life count and then met him at the clock.
And she remembered him in his own clothes, rather than the fancy tuxedo, even though he is on the first class staircase.
😭😭😭
I never get, why people get emotional over this ending. Its the most messed up ending in movie history. She lived over 100 years, had a husband, kids, grandkids, possible bros and sis in law and yet, when she died, she saif FU to all of them and choose to spend the afterlife on a ship she didnt like "It was a slave ship" with people she had known for 3 days, if at all....WTF...
That’s fair, everyone has their opinions. I never viewed it that way. It’s unfortunate you view it that way, it happens.
@@thomasnieswandt8805first of all, it’s never said that she died at the end of the movie, I read that it’s open for interpretation and for me in fact, she just dreamed of it. Secondly, we see a young Rose back on the ship, not an old one, hence that was not her living the afterlife with Jack, but a symbol, a sense of peace with all the passengers reunited for one last time, celebrating an everlasting love.
Tragedy divided them, and not their own decisions, Rose kept her promise and her love for him alive, although she found love afterwards. It doesn’t mean that she loved Jack more than her husband, but that she was full of gratitude towards him cause he gave her the courage to live the life she always wanted.
It is SO interesting to see this film through the eyes of someone who is completely unaware of the history. Thank you!
Thanks for watching ❤
I was there on opening night in 1997. Titanic is still the greatest movie-going experience of my life. When they kissed on the bow, i KNEW i was watching history in the making.
Think about how unexpected the success of Titanic was. Everyone in 1997 was obsessed with Star Wars thanks to the awful re-releases.. Titanic didnt have an established IP like the Marvel movies. Everyone went into Titanic knowing that the ship was going to sink. The film even elaborates on how Titanic sank.
The movie had so much working against it. But because of James Camerons revolutionary use of 3D storytelling, he blew everyone away. Cameron brilliantly and effectively transported everyone in the audience back to 1912 to live this experience alongside Jack and Rose.
To me as an epic romance, Titanic is just as great, timeless and iconic as Casablanca and Gone With The Wind. Jacks death is as historical as Rhett walking out on Scarlett and Ilsa leaving Rick on the plane. The end to Titanic is one of the best endings in film history. And it came out in my lifetime.
That's amazing, the movie is indeed an all time banger, thanks for watching ❤
One of my favorite movies of all time. This is a film that will forever be iconic. The theatre experience as a child was very scary.
Oh man the theater experience for this must've been wild. Thanks for watching ❤
@@wadumin Most definitely. My grandma took me and my cousins to see this.
@@wadumin I heard that one of the officers had a key to the binoculars and was replaced last minute or so and haven't returned the key hence making them have to look normally giving them even less time to turn then they should
@@wadumin can you react to inside out 2
When I saw this in theatres the power went out right when the ships power went out 😝 it was super scary lol, but got free tickets to come and see it again 😊
Fun fact officer Murdoch was portrayed so badly that it ruined his reputation as a hero and his family sued James Cameron for him portraying him as a villain
Yes, it was a lack of sensibility to portray such harsh deeds to a real life person who for all accounts gave his life in the trying of saving other's people lives.
And Cameron acknowledged that, it was his biggest regret with the film
I've never thought of Murdoch as a villain to be honest. All in all, he seemed like a caring officer most of the time. We never actually see him accepting the bribe. Hockley just shoves the money in his pocket and Murdoch throws it back in his face later. He clearly didn't WANT to shoot Tommy and couldn't live with the guilt. Considering the circumstances, all his actions are understandable to me. I do agree though that Cameron shouldn't have had him potrayed the way he did.
To be honest I don’t view nor saw Officer Murdoch as a villain or some sort, I understand his frustration and the helplessness of the situation and I honestly I feel for him, my heart goes to him and it hurts to see him die. It hurts to see all the people who tried to make the situation better in some way, they did all of their best to save people.
I like that Cameron made Murdoch prominent in the heaven scene, second only to Mr Andrews in line waiting to welcome Rose to be reunited with Jack. He could have put Tommy, Fabi or the captain there but it's a nice touch that he put Murdoch.
The kind rich lady who helped Jack with a suit for his first dinner with Rose and her family was Margaret Brown (played by Kathy Bates in this movie). She is also known as "the unsinkable Molly Brown," due to being a survivor of the Titanic sinking. She could relate to Jack because she came from humble beginnings. She was poor until oil was discovered on her land. But the sudden wealth didn't change her modest character. That's why the other rich ladies looked down on her. The other ladies were born into wealth and snobbery. Molly Brown was not. Molly Brown died in her sleep, in New York City, 1932 at the age of 65. In 1964 a movie was released called "The Unsinkable Molly Brown", about her life and her time on the Titanic. Debbie Reynolds, a very famous American actress of the time, played the lead role, Molly Brown.
I forget where it is but he home is a museum that you can visit
Oh we loved her character, didn't know there's a movie about her, we'll look it up, thanks for watching ❤
Margaret Brown never went by the name Molly in her life. As a child she went by Maggie, and close friends called her that in adulthood. As a socialite she always went by Margaret. "Molly Brown" first popped up in a book and later a musical than book.
Actually it was silver and not oil that her husband discovered on their land...a silver mine! Yes, you should watch the movie "The Unsinkable Molly Brown" with Debbie Reynolds. It's a wonderful musical and I haven't seen any reactors choose it yet.
The 1964 movie version of THE UNSINKABLE MOLLY BROWN was based on the 1960 Broadway musical of the same title, which starred Tammy Grimes in the title role.
Hi friends! Yes, there was footage of the real Titanic in the intro. The frames for the glass windows on the doors to the upper class lounge area, for one, were real Titanic footage. The film looks more 'raw' for the snapshots that they show.
Oh wow, thanks for letting us know ❤
That sepia intro is not the footage of the real Titanic. If you're referring to the wreckage... It's a mixture of the actual wreckage footage and miniatures. Some shots are impossible to do at that depth and it's too dangerous to get into the deeper parts of the actual wreckage
Thank you fot saying that - it always drives me mad when someone doesn’t know something but still answers. Just say you don’t know!!! Unless you don’t know you don’t know - that’s a bummer
The real/model shots of the wreck can be distinguished with the fact that the real wreck shots are slightly softer focus. In most of the shots where you only see the ship, and some of the ones where you only see one of the submersibles are real. All of the ones where you see both of the submersibles are models.
The backdrop of the sunset when Jack and rose kiss on the bow is real. No backdrop no cgi. It was 100% real
Actually it was a green screen. James Cameron later added the sunset. It's in the making of the movie.
@@arlenehernandez1562The first 10 seconds of this clip has Kate Winslet saying the sunset shot was real.
ua-cam.com/video/QV3CAvAgono/v-deo.htmlsi=pBRVPgYbWqb0-If3
@@arlenehernandez1562 I think it was a mix of both. They shot it with an amazing sunset, but they only used one or two shots from it because they scrambled to shoot the scene, and the shot was out of focus.
it's a combination of the two... real shots and blue screen for adding the ship... but the sunset was real
The majority of the film was in fact filmed at Baja Studios in Mexico with soundstages and set pieces. The sunset was in fact added with CGI. I remember because of the making of the film on the Blu-ray behind the scenes documentary.
I love watching the reactions to "Titanic", but often they are so callous and frivolous. But yours warmed my heart! You are wonderful!
That's awesome of you, thanks for watching ❤
James Cameron, the director, went down to titanic shipwreck in a submersible for the movie. He also drew all the pictures in the movie including the Rose drawing. Yes, Leo didn’t actually draw it.James also went down to the deepest part of the ocean, the Mariana’s trench. James Cameron is amazing.
@JohnG500
James Cameron built his own sub too.
I love camerons brain.
Loved his work, thanks for watching ❤
@@wadumin loved y’all watching Forest Gump and now Titanic. Y’all make a great duo.
@@connorredshaw5650 Yeah and he didn't use Airplane carbon fiber, for his submersible..
Poor James Cameron. Making this film was hell on Earth for him on a number of levels. Everyone in the press thought it was going to be terrible and flop hard (obviously the very opposite happened). On the very last day of principal photography when the final shot was done, Cameron grabbed a bottle of vodka and drank it all while sitting down in front of the last massive set they had built before it had to be torn down. He had a two hour drive and several months of extremely hard post-production ahead of him. He fell asleep in the back as soon as the car door closed.
So much respect for his incredible work ❤
@@wadumin not only that, but the fact that James Cameron originally did not want a movie song. the composer (secrelty) wrote a song, and played it for celine dion while she was visiting las vegas. Dion originally did not like the song at all, her husband and manager renee angelil eventually convinced dion to record a demo. The day she recorded the demo she wasn't feeling her best and she did one take practice, that they took, built the orhcestra around and played for cameron when he was in a good mood. SO the sountrack we here celine dion singing is her one take demo.
@Krobra91 You're right, and James Horner was a genius for sticking with his gut that a song at the end was the ideal way to wrap the movie up instead of more orchestral music. I prefer the demo version of the song than the studio release because of its raw power that didn't need embellishments. James Horner was completely deserving of the Oscars that year for best score and song! I wish he was still alive today to create more beautiful work and he'll always be my favorite musician :( RIP Mr. Horner 1953-2015
when he handed her the note and you said " is that is number" might be the funniest thing ive read this year🤣phenomenal reaction btw!
Lol, thanks for watching ❤
Models of the ship were built that were 45 feet long and 65 feet long which had sections that could be separated and a 744 foot long exterior was built.
The climactic scene, which features the breakup of the ship directly before it sinks as well as its final plunge to the bottom of the Atlantic, involved a tilting full-sized set, 150 extras, and 100 stunt performers.
A sad thing I read was that one of the survivors ended up living near a baseball stadium in Detroit and he hated game days. The sound of the cheering crowd reminded him of the screaming people in the water during the sinking...
47:07 Fun fact: that Catholic Priest really existed. His name was Thomas Byles. He was travelling to New York in order to officiate his brother's wedding. During the sinking, he was offered two times to get into a lifeboat but he refused. He helped passengers from third class (and also from the second and the first one) to get into the boats, and stayed with the ones who couldn't leave the ship. Some people confesed and the Priest gave absolution of sins, at the beggining in an individual way and at the last moments he gave a general absolution (there was no more time). So, basically that scene in which they are praying the rosary really occured, and at the end they prayed the Act of Contrition. They were asking for forgiveness for their souls and taking comfort in the word of the Lord, they were literally preparing for the "end" 🥺🥲 Thomas Byles died that night, he literally sacrificed himself 😢 Also, it is said that, there were like 100 people and from different religions, all together praying the rosary
The guy in white next to Rose and Jack on the stern, was also real. He was the Titanic's Head Baker, Charles Joughin. He rode the stern down to the water, then survived nearly two hours in the water before being picked up by the overturned Collapsible B lifeboat. Story is the amount of alcohol he consumed as the ship sank helped keep him alive.
My grandmother was born exactly two months after the Titanic sank. She passed back in 2005 at 93, but she would have been 112 now.
I was in junior high when this originally came out and I remember showings being sold out for WEEKS. I saw it three times, and at one of the showings the theater actually handed out travel packs of Kleenex! 😅
The elderly couple who perished in their bed were real.
The woman refused to get on a boat without her husband 😢
(Somewhat like the fictional jack & rose)
Oh wow :)
Isidor Strauss and his wife. Always inspired me to be a good person. But drowning in icy water? I would drink myself to death in 3 minutes before enduring that!!
The family of the Strauss couple owned a department store and gave the survivors clothes and home goods for a new start
He was the original owner of Macys
@@5calambres In one of the final scenes, the baker who was clinging to the rails next to Jack and Rose as the ship sank, drinking from his flask, was real, too. He survived despite being in the freezing water for quite a long time. He believed that he owed his survival to the fact that he was drunk, so that his body didn't feel the effect of the coldness of the water.
Rose didn't live without Jack, not a single minute of her life. A beautiful love story, a horrible tragedy, and a solid glimpse into the many facets of our humanity. Thanks for sharing your reactions!
Thanks for watching ❤
They did as much of this practically as possible. He had it all built. At that point it was the biggest water tank ever used. Having watched the filming of some of the sinking how the hell no one drowned I’ll never know.
He also had that first class staircase rebuilt to exact specs, the carpet in the first class dining hall was the exact carpet type/pattern made by the same company.
James Cameron always tried for excellence. This was his masterpiece.
Before Avatar that is (but that’s a completely different animal being mostly CG)
Loved his work, what a legend ❤
It's funny how even tough both movies were made by the same director, I kinda hate Avatar just because it tries to surpass Titanic. Haha
Interesting Fact: James Cameron showed the Titanic hitting the iceberg and the way the ship began to sink, including how it split into two parts, but he also featured how long it took for it to sink in a subtle way: all the scenes set *in* the ship are two hours and 40 minutes long, which is how long it took for the Titanic to go down.
Also, when Rose passes and meets Jack on the staircase, the clock shows *2:20* which is the exact time the Titanic slipped below the waves. Of the 2,240 passengers and crew on board the Titanic, 705-706 people survived the ship's sinking.
50:00 What a lot of people don't understand about the door is that it wasn't about space, but _buoyancy._
Even as 9-10 year old I understood they both couldn't fit. I knew how floats easily flipped the same way. Not to mention the water is _freezing,_ they are tired, and it _hurts_ being in that cold water. They can't afford to waste any more energy or lose anymore body heat even if they could both get on it.
Titanic is actually a dark comedy in that we spend 3 hours hoping Jack survives when the beginning of the film clearly reveals that he didn't since Rose's last name isn't Dawson. Also, many people have said that Jack & Rose could have both fit on top of the door, but their combined weight would have submerged it, so Jack had to stay off of it to keep Rose mostly dry & not in freezing water. Finally, my guess is that if Jack had survived, he & Rose would have sold Cal's necklace & ran off together but still having her mother & Cal believe they are dead so they couldn't go after them.
Well the main thing is - it wasn't a door - it was a door frame. That's why it was kind of built weird and could only hold rose
The necklace was very famous though, so it would have been hard for them to disappear after selling - it unless they literally sold it in the streets.
@jessetorres8738 At the beginning of the film it is clearly revealed that Rose's name WAS Rose Dawson. When the elderly Rose came aboard the search vessel "Keldysh", Lewis says to Brock (Bill Paxton) as they are walking "Her name was Rose *Dawson* back then. They move to Cedar Rapids and she punches out a couple of kids."
Rose would have had to sell it on the black market to some rich aristocrat.
The necklace was insured, no doubt Cal's insurance company would have started an investigation. The first suspect would have been Cal. The second would have been Rose. They would have moved the world to find her to get it back.
That's where the movie's logic breaks down with regard to the necklace.
The way I laughed when he said, "Is that his number?" at the note from Jack. My dude 😂😂
I used to watch this movie every year when I was a kid because one of the national broadcast stations in my country just loved this money awouldill play on Sunday night like three times per year😂 The way little old me cried with it was impressive
Hahah thanks for watching Daniel ❤
James Cameron went above and beyond with the set pieces for this movie. Not only did he dive down to the bottom of the ocean to get real footage of the sunken Titanic, but he made a massive 1:1 scale model (or close to it) of the ship for all his wide shots. It's the kind of extreme practical movie making that you don't see done anymore.
Absolutely loved his work, wow❤
Not even close to the real size. But still huge. And only the right side. So when they filmed the scene on the docks where the titanics left side was showed, they mirrored the footage. Becquse of that, every written word like on the clothes or the taxi, everything was written(printed) mirrored.
Think he went down several times - he even took bill Paxton a couple times
@@andreadeamon6419He did take Bill Paxton on an expedition after the movie had been made. Film is called "Ghost's of the Abyss".
I love watching people reacting to this beautiful movie, and you two are probably my favorite so far. This was the first movie I saw in a cinema with my mom when I was 6 (yeah, my mom took me to this :)) ) But neither of us regretted one bit! It was a life-changing experience to me. I came out of there a changed little kid :)) in the best way. I decided that I wanted to become an artist by how inspired I felt . And now I am living that dream.
You guys were so sweet and emphatic and entertaining! Great job! Maybe you could also do a reaction to behind the scene documentaries some day. There's some super interesting ones out there, totally recommend it if you're curious how Cameron created this masterpiece.
He is one of the dearest Titanic reaction folk I've seen so far. But I felt so negative vibes from her. Just him made it worth to watch it.
You're awesome, we appreciate the kind words, thanks for watching ❤
This in in my top 3 films of all time.
It's absolutely beautiful ❤
The two old people shown cuddling in bed as it floods are based on a real couple. Isidor Straus and his wife, the original owner of Macys. He was states as saying that he would not take up a spot that could go to someone else, and his wife refused to leave his side. They both gave up their millionaire lifestyles so that they did not take a space someone else could have. They chose to stay on the ship even though they both had a spot out.
Straus was not quite the original owner of Macy's, which had been founded by R.H. Macy in 1858. Isidor Straus and his brother Nathan purchased the store from the Macy family in 1895.
They need to play this in Cinemas again. The full everything. Uncut. Unedited.
AGREED
Great reaction! I absolutely love it. I've been watching Titanic since it was released and I still cry. This is the movie of my life. I love how both of you were opened to the stories. Thank U for sharing your reaction
Thanks for watching, much love ❤
This movie came out on December 19, 1997, as well as the James Bond film Tomorrow Never Dies (1997). Also, this movie was released on the day that SilkAir Flight 185 crashed into the Musi River in Palembang, Indonesia, killing all 104 passengers and crew onboard. 😢💔
And five years before I was born! 😊❤️
i *love* your reactions !!! please keep doing more !! you guys are both genuine and authentic so it's fun to watch
You're awesome, thanks for watching ❤
You guys were brilliant. Thank you for a great reaction to the greatest film.
“You don’t send me pictures. F**k you” 😂😂😂
Ayy thanks for watching 😁❤️
That whiny F U was so sweet 😹
Hate to correct you sir, but yes, the footage in the beginning is in fact the real ship, Cameron was obsessed with the Titanic and they’ve sent many subs down to get footage.
Side note: the drawings you see in jacks book and that of Rose nude, were drawn by Cameron himself.😊
Most of it is footage of the actual ship, but some scenes are also miniatures. Basically if you see both Mir subs in a shot, it's not the real ship.
Most of the footage was not the real ship. Only the extra blurry ones were the real ship.
FUN FACTS: James Cameron, Leonardo DiCaprio, Kate Winslet & Celine Dion contributed a combined amount of $30,000 to help with the financial support fund to the youngest Titanic survivor Millvina Dean. Millvina Dean was 2 months old when she was on the Titanic with her family. Millvina died in 2009 at the age of 97.
The movie characters Margaret "Molly" Brown, Thomas Andrews, Capt. Edward J. Smith, Bruce Ismay, John Jacob Astor & many more are based on the real-life victims & survivors, by the same name, of the Titanic.
James Cameron received official certification & license to take a team to the bottom of the Atlantic ocean to record footage of the Titanic multiple times. So the footage at the beginning of the movie is real.
People like to argue about the debris thing, that wooden door. But the simple truth is, it was only able to carry one of them. It's not about the space but the weight the two would have put on it, leaving both of them in the freezing water.
Oh this movie has such a special place in my heart. I watched it for the first time on vhs at my mamas way back in the early 2000s. When I got older I took media and film studies at secondary school and chose this movie as my focus, for one of my projects on perspective of character I took each of the main characters and made edits so to speak of the e movie through their eyes. So wish I had the memory stick with that project on
Oh wow, love that ❤
It's crazy that Jack and Rose were on the stern of the boat when it sunk, and they met on the stern of the boat when she was threatening suicide. It's also crazy that Rose told Cal (after Jack saved her from falling overboard) that she was at the stern of the boat to get a look at the propellers, and that's why she slipped. In the end, she got a really good look at those propellers. Seeing those giant propellers in the air like that was extra eerie.
R.I.P., TITANIC VICTIMS
🌊🛟🚢🪦🛶🌊🛟🚢🪦🛶🌊
Fun Fact: Celine Dion did NOT want to perform "My Heart Will Go On" thanks to already having recorded "Beauty and The Beast", but it wound up making her a globally-recognized name thanks to this movie's popularity.
Oh wow, thanks for letting us know ❤
I don't like either songs.
Some fun facts:
1. There WERE enough lifeboats, according to safety regulation at the time. In fact, Titanic had 4 more than required. But the boats were intended to be shuttles, to take a load of passengers to safety and return for more - not to float in the water all night. Obviously, that was a dumb plan and the regulations were changed after Titanic sank.
2. Nobody was ever intentionally locked inside the ship. Passengers did get lost and may have wandered into areas that were closed off, but gates were never used to keep anyone from escaping.
3. It’s never been confirmed that Bruce Ismay encouraged Captain Smith to speed up. That was a rumor based off an overheard conversation. Ismay earned shame for surviving when so many died, but we don’t know if he actually helped create the conditions for the crash.
4. Murdoch never shot anyone, including himself.
5. The ship very likely did not stand fully upright at any point, and very likely broke in half at a much more shallow angle. It was nearly pitch black outside that night. Once the lights went out, witnesses on the lifeboats could only make out the silhouette of Titanic by the way it blocked out the stars on the horizon behind it.
6. Titanic had two sister ships- an older sister named Olympic, and a younger sister named Brittanic. Olympic collided with a naval vessel before titanic was ever built, and steel meant for the construction of titanic was used to repair it. Olympic went on to serve until the 30’s, even doing a stint as an armed troop transport in WW1, during which time it rammed and sank a German U-Boat. Brittanic was modified during its construction to amend the safety flaws discovered in Titanic’s sinking, including adding enough lifeboats for EVERYONE and a faster deployment system, a taller double hull so of the outer skin was pierced like titanic, the inner would prevent flooding, bulkheads that went ALL the way up to the main deck so water couldn’t spill over them, and more. Brittanic hit a sea mine and sank in 1916, but ALL passengers were able to safely evacuate in a fraction of the time it took a third of Titanic’s. Only 30 people died on Brittanic and most of them were due to their lifeboats hitting the spinning propeller.
7. Violet Jessop was aboard all 3 of these ships, and survived each incident.
Oh wow, thanks for all the great info, much love ❤
Ismay Smith conversation was overheard by only one person, Elizabeth Lines. From her testimony, he was discussing about Titanic's perfomance and comparing it to Olympic. He was merely making an observation that Titanic would reach New York earlier than planned.
There was never an unusual increase in speed after that conversation. Titanic was doing her service speed.
Ismay did plan for a speed run, Monday afternoon or Tuesday morning, given the weather was clear. But it was only discussed with chief Engineer Bell at Queenstown. This information is based on Ismay's testimony.
Goddamn, by the third shipwreck Violet must have been a survival pro 😭 I'd start thinking I was cursed
Although the britannic being tougher than the titanic, it sank because the crew had forgotten to close the watertight doors, and since the ship was still moving... it didnt help that much, since the captain had not been warned about lifeboats being launched it caused confusion and the lifeboat ended up at the port propeller driven by the second reciprocating triple expansion 4-cylinder steam engine that was still up and running, hence it sank so fast, leaving engines on caused water to flood the ship faster, and the watertight doors being open meant the water was still entering, which pulled the ship to an unrecoverable list, sinking faster and faster each time, for it to finally founder at the bottom of the sea. Not before cracking the hull of the bow.
The mine had probably damaged only 2 compartments, and the britannic could float with 6 compartments pierced!
@@Fanblade they were in the middle of a shift change. That's why doors were open. The explosion warped the nearby bulkhead, preventing doors from closing. Open portholes also played a part.
Great reaction. 😊 Titanic is my all time favourite romance movie. James Cameron is a genius. Btw he draw the picture of Rose. 😏
Love From India. ❤️😇❤️
Anita: "it`s such a famous romance movie!! 🥰🥰"
Me, laughing: "romance movie, she said .... 😂😂"
Anita later: 😳" I thought this was a romance movie ..." * sad pikachu face *
Some more information for you - Characters that really existed:
- Bruce Ismay (the one who didn`t know Freud); survived. He was CEO of the White Star Line, so kinda the owner of the ship.
- Thomas Andrews, died. Naval architect at White Star Line, chief engineer of the Titanic.
- Benjamin Guggenheim, died. The one "well dressed for going down" - that line is an actual quote from him from that situation. Super-rich Businessman and, I think the brother of the founder of the Guggenheim museum.
- John Jacob Astor IV, died. Belonged to the Astor familay (who owned the Waldorf-Astoria hotel), and was one of the richest people in the world. His very young wife, Madeleine, survived.
- Isidor Strauss + wife Ida, died. Politician and businessman - they were that old couple dying in their bed.
- Capt. Smith, died.
- Molly Brown, survived.
- Thomas Byles, died. The priest on deck during the sinking actually existed and was reportedly praying the whole time.
- Colonel Archibald Gracie, survived. Member of a very rich business family, became a popular author and wrote a book about the sinking.
- Lieutenant Murdoch, died. The one who shot Fabrizios friend and then shot himself. According to eyewitnesses, the reallife Murdoch actually did that.
- Lieutenant Lightoller, survived. One of the officers the Captain spoke with about ice warnings. He also was the idiot who passed the order that no man was allowed to enter the life-boats, and to only fill them by 50%.
Wikipedia: "Lightoller interpreted Smith's order for "the evacuation of women and children" as essentially "women and children only". As a result, Lightoller lowered lifeboats with empty seats if there were no women and children waiting to board, meaning to fill them to capacity once they had reached the water."
- Heart of the ocean: it´s based on the reallife Hope diamond, which belonged to King Louis XIV. It´s worth around 300 million today.
When the movie came out in late 1997, there were 7 survivors left alive. The last one, Millvina Dean, died in 2009, age 97. She was 2 months old when the titanic sank. Out of 2.208 passengers, 712 survived.
So there are no Titanic survivors alive anymore.
I loved the: "Woah, he doesn't know Freud!"
"I don't know who he is, sorry."
"You should read!"
Haha, savage Anita! 😂👍❤
This movie is the source of one of the modern day proverbs . “Find you a rose in life…” find you someone who will jump back onto a sinking ship to be with you because she’s your co pilot …
I love that you caught that other souls who perished were on the ship when Rose & Jack were "reunited". I'm not crying, you're crying.............. 💔 The soundtrack for this movie is a central character of the story - I listened to it constantly before seeing the movie, we all did, and when I finally saw that first scene, bam. the feels. I remember it was a thing to see how many times you got to the theater to see it. There are a handful of movies that should be re-released in theaters, and this is absolutely a top pick. So glad you picked this - and for sharing that with us.
this is the biggest movie ever made in my opinion... the sets they build, a replica of the ship with 90% of the real size... the level of detail... it's a masterpiece
Movie inspector here.
Though jack and rose was a fiction most of the narrative about other passengers were true in real life. There was this musician band who kept on playing till the ship sank. The two couple holding together in bed accepting their fate is also true. The rich gentleman who accepted his death in all luxury is also true, his name was john jacob astor i guess he was the richest in the world at that time. U can also research the personalties that died in youtube documentaries.
James cameron has done a fantastic job to make us feel how this real individuals died.
Wow, thanks for the info ❤
Astor was richest in the ship
@@gokulgopan4397 Guggenheim was the richest one I believe.
"What do you expect,a woman's body is Magic" i love it❤️😂
Yes, James Cameron did explore the real Titanic wreckage to create his film Titanic (1997). His interest in the ship and its tragic history motivated him to go far beyond typical research methods for the movie. Here are the detailed steps and facts about his exploration:
1. First Dives to the Wreck: Cameron conducted multiple deep-sea dives to the wreck, located about 2.5 miles (4 kilometers) underwater in the North Atlantic. He worked closely with the Russian research vessel Akademik Mstislav Keldysh and its two submersibles, Mir 1 and Mir 2, which could reach such depths. He reportedly made twelve dives to the Titanic wreck, with some dives lasting over 16 hours.
2. Filming Challenges: Filming at the Titanic wreck presented extreme challenges. The intense pressure and pitch-dark environment required specialized lighting and camera equipment. Cameron’s team developed high-definition cameras specifically for deep-sea exploration, capable of withstanding the immense water pressure. His technical innovations in lighting and filming in the deep sea set a new standard for underwater cinematography.
3. Detailed Reconstruction of Titanic’s Interiors: To bring authenticity to his film, Cameron carefully studied the Titanic’s layout, furniture, and decorations. His research included not only observing the actual wreck but also working with historians and studying period photographs. The production recreated the ship’s grand staircase, dining rooms, and other key areas with stunning accuracy.
4. Subsequent Dives and Documentaries: Cameron’s fascination with the Titanic didn’t end after the movie. He continued to explore the wreck over the years, producing documentaries such as Ghosts of the Abyss (2003) and Last Mysteries of the Titanic (2005). These projects used more advanced robotic and 3D camera technology, revealing parts of the Titanic that had never been seen before.
5. Environmental Impact Considerations: Cameron's team also followed protocols to minimize their environmental impact on the wreck site. The Titanic, a UNESCO-protected site, requires that divers and researchers respect its preservation status.
James Cameron's commitment to authenticity led him to combine cinematic creativity with real-world exploration. His approach offered audiences not only a dramatic retelling of the Titanic’s story but also a genuine look at the wreck itself.
Thanks for the info ❤
La mejor reacción de Titanic que ví. Se nota que saben mucho de cine. Les cuento que la experiencia de ver Titanic en cines llenos, riendo primero y luego llorando, fue única. Saludos desde Argentina!
Bro is nobody gonna talk about how his eyes were about to tear up at 5:20?💀🗿
At the end Rose dies in her sleep while we see photos of her and her spirit returns to Jack and the other passengers who died. She gets to be with Jack forever. Footage at the beginning was the real ship.
Beautifully done ❤
My favorite movie of all time! I instantly became passionate about the real ship because of this film right after I saw it for the first time. One fond memory I have about it is around the time this movie first came out, a museum exhibit of artifacts that were recovered from the actual ship came to Texas. My parents couldn’t take me to see it because it was kind of expensive, but a friend of mine was able to go. And the neatest thing he saw there was a butterfly hair comb pin just like the one Rose had in the movie, except one of the wings was broken off. Pretty cool ❤❤❤
Note: What happened on the Titanic, letting the women and children go first, WAS A ONCE IN A LIFETIME THING. Literally, in every other ship, women and children died more often then the the men because the men were stronger and let themselves get on the boats first. Look it up!
46:58 that was Helga, Fabrizio's girlfriend, they met there on the ship and had a couple deleted scenes
Yes! Another upload! Looking forward to it. Hope you guys have an amazing week.
Ayy thanks for the support ❤
It wasn’t Thomas Andrews fault, nor he has any “mistakes” regarding the ship, It’s the incompetence of Ismay that sealed the fate of the ship and the 1,500 souls.
I feel for him honestly and I understand the hopelessness & guilt that he shouldn’t have carried. The sheer arrogance of Ismay and how many times Mr. Andrews words were overruled about the life boats and the “making headlines” for the sake of the egotistic selfish elite people, it’s deliberately frustrating.
“20th Century Fox acquired 40 acres of waterfront south of Playas de Rosarito in Mexico and began building a new studio on May 31, 1996. A horizon tank of 17 million gallons was built for the exterior of the reconstructed ship, providing 270 degrees of ocean view. The ship was built to full scale, but redundant sections on the superstructure were removed for the ship The sets representing the interior rooms of the Titanic were reproduced exactly using photographs and plans from the Titanic's builders. The Grand Staircase, which features prominently in the film, was recreated to a high standard, though it was widened 30% compared to the original and reinforced with steel girders to fit in the tank, with the remaining sections filled with digital models.”
I never even thought about that ending where it shower her in the bed and then the ship rebuilding and her seeing everybody that passed away and Jack
It never once crossed my mind that she passed away right there at the end my mind is officially blown
The elderly couple lying on the bed together as the water came in were a real
Couple who actually did that. She wouldn’t leave him on the ship, so they died together. 💔
The love story in the first half of the movie is so well done and captivating that I actually forget that the second half is just despair, death and sadness. And I just found your channel but I already enjoyed it :) no need to hold the tears and "keep it together", I personally want to watch reactors.... React!
Thanks for watching ❤
20:08 "oh was that his number?" bro 🤣🤣🤣 you're literally watching a movie set in 1912 loool
Ik i was just kidding ❤😂
I was thinking the same thing. Maybe Jack was giving his number to Rose so she could put it in her cell phone or maybe he was going to give her his email address. 😊
@@angeltech1 cellphone? Telegraph was barely a thing back then and "cellphone"? history doesnt bite bro...
I agree with the mail idea but Cellphone?
@ It was a joke, your not to bright. Also, the telegraph had been around for a long time by 1912, in fact, since the middle of the 19th century so it wasn’t barely a thing.
@@angeltech1 Yeah ik it was a joke, but the telegraph was just becoming popular, the titanic was able to test the 400km radius antennas, but it was still a bit new
58:30 note the time on the clock (2:20). That was the time that the ship sank.
The iconic door. James Cameron actually did several tests with real people in water that was still 25 degrees warmer than the temperature of the water. Only one test worked where Jack, or the man playing Jack, survived. But that was all predetermined. There was no way Jack would survive.
Great reaction guys ❤ loved it Cried just like you guys
Thanks for watching ❤
This movie is a masterpiece! My favorite movie of all Time...i'm so pleased that it hit you like that❤ Rose and Jack forever...
I loved reading about Titantic as a kid, I did book reports on it at school. I saw it in theaters when I was 20 and as soon as the iceberg appeared I left because I couldn't watch it sink, lol. It was several years later before I saw the ending.
I realize now that the same terror was the same for every ship that sank throughout the history of ships.
Yes, director James Cameron DID go down to the actual Titanic wreckage on the ocean floor. He has been interested in exploring the Titanic for a long time.
Thanks for clarifying ❤
So glad I'm watching this movie in their 25th anniversary with 3D4K at the cinema.
Spectacular! 💙
That's amazing ❤
You’re mistaken… they fimed real footage of the sunken titanic for this film, which is what you saw in the intro.
Not all the wreck footage was real
Just the ones on the monitor behind older rose.
It's a mixture of the actual wreckage footage and miniatures. Some shots are impossible to do at that depth and it's too dangerous to get into the deeper parts of the actual wreckage
Wreck footage is mix of original and miniature. Two subs in the shot means miniature, and one sub in the shot means real footage.
This movie really is a masterpiece! I loved your reaction.
Ill watch this movie EVERY TIME that it comes back to the theater.
Fun fact about this film: James Cameron has said that he wanted the money more to dive the wreck, than to make the film. Those Mir submersibles are real, and Cameron took them down to the wreck several times.
Much of the footage of the wreck is shot with a model of the ship in a studio, but there are shots of the real thing in the film, as well. These can usually be identified as being more blue, and obviously they tend not to show any submarines (since the cameras were focused on Titanic).
James Cameron was, for a time, considered the world's foremost leading expert on the Titanic, leading many experiments and theories on how she sank and what happeneds to put the pieces of the wreck where they are.
Many of his theories have since been disproven, but the research he did remains useful and invaluable to the community.
Titanic (1997) was the first film ever made to depict the chaotic breakup of Titanic, every film before it showed the ship slipping gracefully into the waves in one piece.
The breakup was shot using a 30-foot long model of Titanic's stern, constructed of balsa wood and lead plating, and had to be shot twice, with the crew reassembling the broken model as best they could between takes.
The flooding of the Grand Staircase and theimplosion of the dome were shot practically, and in one take out of necessity. Actors who participated in the shot were warned of the legitimate dangers of shooting it and were required to sign waivers stating they were okay with it. The shot became all the more deadly when the loosely connected staircase floated to the surface and shattered, trapping several actors. Thankfully, no one was killed (though I believe injuries did occur).
The stairs on Titanic were originally thought to have sat much the same way, and them floating loose was thought to be the reason they're no longer present on the wreck, though this theory today is highly contested, as it is believed that Titanic's construction varied somewhat from that of a movie set.
The shots of the ship sinking with the actors running aft are real. There was a 1:1 scale set built which could tilt several degrees down to simulate sinking in real time. The shots of the ship from the exterior vary between exquisitely detailed models between 1:32 and 1:8 in scale, andthe full scale set.
Titanic is easily one of the most intricate films ever made, with sets and effects that (mostly) still hold up today.
56:57 "you don't send me pictures too... Fuck you", I didn't expect that 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
2:44 It actually was the real deal! Of course, the interior shots with the safe are fake but the exterior shots are of the real ship.
This video made me sub to you guys. Loved this soo much, and you guys were so funny reacting to this. I loved how sad you guys got, and it's always fun for me to watch somebody else watching this movie, especially for the first time. Thanks for doing it.
We appreciate it Amelia, thanks for watching ❤
One of the best reactions of this movie! Thank u dahhhlings for respect the history of that movie. ❤
We appreciate it, thanks for watching ❤
19:00 - The proper etiquette for using multiple sets of cutlery is to start on the outer set for each dinner course and then work your way inwards
Titanic was huge during its time in 1912, our cruise ships now a days, are much much larger. Like so much larger some even have huge long water slides
Should also mention, there was enough room for jack on the door/wood it was about buoyancy, not size, if jack would have gotten on with rose they both would have died, so jack made the decision to let rose have it.
loved your reaction to this masterpiece 🙂
Thanks for watching ❤
Freud is one of the more influential figures of the 20th century. “Sigmund Freud (6 May 1856 - 23 Sept 1939) was an Austrian neurologist and the founder of psychoanalysis. Freud lived and worked in Vienna having set up his clinical practice there in 1886. In 1930, Freud received the Goethe Prize in recognition of his contributions to psychology and German literary culture. In January 1933, the Nazi Party took control of Germany, and Freud's books were prominent among those they burned. Following the German annexation of Austria in March 1938, Freud left Austria to escape Nazi persecution.”
The way she said rose dawson was like they were married to each-other and as you see in very last part she was wearing white dress which simply hits like wedding dress maybe they wanted to ironically that they were going to be married afterlife
There were 2,224 people on the Titanic, but there was only enough space on the 20 lifeboats for 1,178 (or about 53%) of them, & yet only 710 (or about 32%) people survived the sinking of the ship. Also, if you haven't already, look up the 1958 film A Night To Remember since it's essentially the Titanic movie that inspired James Cameron to make his movie.
That's horrible, we'll definitely check out your recommendation ❤
@@wadumin: It's fun watching A Night To Remember after watching Titanic & going "Oh, there's that shot" or "Hey, there's that line" throughout it.
It was 2208 on Titanic
Yes! It's a brilliant read, and literary a masterpiece. I devoured it in one evening and learned plenty from it, among other thing that Jack's words "water that cold is like being stabbed by a thousand knives" is a quote from one of the surviving officers (Lightoller maybe?) about how it felt being submerged when the collapsible life boat capsized after the ship sank. Finding these little gems make the movie even more enjoyable.
They did go down to film the real ship, the footage they show to Rose was real, the outside of the ship was real, but they didn't touch anything, there are some interior shots like the cabin or the safe, those were filmed in studio
James Cameron was a marine biologist, and he did not let the chance to go see the titanic, it's the reason why he made the movie
Omg , now this is the biggest surprise for me ❤, love you guys ❤
Ayy thanks for watching ❤
@@waduminNo problem buddy ❤️♥️
that lovely lady who helped Jack is Molly Brown, she was a passenger in real life... and she helped a lot of people in the lifeboats...
This movie was fantastic, I was so blown away the first time I saw it, I had no idea James Cameron was an expert on the Titanic. He might be hard to work with but man does he have passion in life.
U guys are awesome coolest funniest amazing and lovely best REACTION every time 😇 love it 🎉❤
Ayy you're awesome, thanks for watching ❤
Thank you for allowing me to experience this masterpiece with you.😍😍😍
Rose did learn - that WAS a great spit into jackass Cal's face LOL !!! Great reactions ! After reading about Titanic years ago, one theory is that if the ship had gone straight on into the iceberg, the damage to the ship may have been much less and it may have NOT sunk, or sank much slower. But they tried to turn and miss it and the submerged part of the iceberg ripped the forward side of the ship open, dooming the ship and causing it to sink faster. Alos, I believe that Kate Winslet developed hypothermia during the cold water scenes from all the scenes and takes, and had to be hospitalized for a time. A great cast, director and storytelling for sure !
Fun fact: kate winslet wanted to understand, if even just a fraction of what these ppl felt when they were plunged into the icy water of the atlantic, so when cameron said theyd be sure the pool water they filmed in would be warm. She insisted that it be ice cold. For authenticity. For her to be able to get a feel for what they wouldve truly felt. She didnt want to fake and act being cold and turning hypodermic, she insisted the water be ice cold.
My 10 year old self was not happy about Jack and screamed SCOOT OVER!!! Totally obsessed with this movie and Leo, I hope my mom still has the posters I had!
Also notice in the ending scene, how he is dressed 🥲
They built models and were at huge pools for lots of the film. They studied pictures of her sister ship and studied the floor plans and design details from the original I believe.
Original plans are rare to find. Some missing data was filled from Olympic, from eg the master at arm's room was situated midships in Titanic. In the movie, where Jack is locked up, it has a porthole. That room is situated at port side in the movie. That was the location in Olympic.
The exterior shots of the ship were filmed on a set that recreated the actual ship at 90% of its size. The interior shots were done in studios.
The sunlight shots on the deck were real, no CGI. I too thought Jack could have gotten on the wood, one from each side. Considering all they went through. Mythbusters tested it and the weight of both of them the wood would go under the water. Titanic is my fave movie. Nice reaction.
With all due respect, this video reaction was worthy to watch because the guy interaction for his emotions were genuine.
In 46:46 how disrespectful the woman was. They were facing certain death. In that moment it was the most helpful thing to do: to pray for their souls and their salvation. In Titanic there were three catholic priest who were offered places in the lifeboats, but they refused to go and remained in the ship to pay assistance to the passengers also regarding their spiritual needs in the very end. How ignorant and hateful was her comment!
It wasn't ignorant or hateful, you're just oversensitive. Obviously she's right and it didn't help, because those bodies were found floating, dead. People can find comfort however they want. But thinking prayer is going to save you is demonstrably false, case in point. Now go waste your time and whine somewhere else
HAIL THEODEN, KING!
Yes, Capt Smith is played by Bernhard Hill. :D
There are also a lot of hilarious Crossover memes.
Aragorn: "The beacons! The beacons are lit! Gondor calls for aid!"
Captain Smith: "And Titanic will answer!"
Next pic: * Titanic rowing into Gondor *
Lmao i love that
Another real character is actually the mustached man standing on the rear of the ship, with Rose and Jack, as it goes down. Iirc he was a baker, and was in fact standing there, as the ship went down, and he survived. I assume Rose notices him - in the film - as a deliberate wink to this unlikely survivor.
Also, arctic water like that will hit you like a motor-vehicle, you will have all air knocked out of you, and you will breathe only by panicked gasps, it's uncontrollable - your muscles then cramp violently, it's absolutely harrowing - it wouldn't be feasible to have actors mimick these reactions, it'd be too horrifying; if it weren't for floating vests, people would stand no chance to keep themselves upright and would drown quickly - *with* vests you're still in a state of catastrophic hypothermia
the lady how helps jack is Margaret Brown she is a real surviver of the tragedy ..she has a beautiful story after the disaster
