    So, I was thinking about this movie recently; and while I do wish Jack and Rose could have lived happily ever after, I think Jack's death was necessary. Not for Rose, but for the audience. As time goes on, the disaster becomes more and more just a footnote in history, detached from the actual trauma of the event. We can look back at the reports of the sinking, and all the death, and realize how horrible it must have been; but it is still just numbers to us. By the time the movie came out, the Titanic had been at the bottom of the ocean for more than 80 years already. Very few survivors were left alive, and for most people; several generations separated them from the wreck. I think having Jack, the charming co-lead of the movie die, after we spent so much time getting attached to not only his character, but also his growing relationship with Rose; was meant to be the emotional punch necessary to make the wreck feel real to us in the modern world. Seeing their adventures aboard the liner, you really began to root for the couple. If it were any other movie, they likely would have gotten their happy ending. But Cameron wanted us to feel the loss, even a little bit, that the survivors and family of those lost aboard the ship felt; by taking this character from us, just inches from the finish line. In that way, Jack is meant ot be a stand in for everyone who lost their lives in the disaster.

      I mean, is not like is details that happens in the background for 0.3 seconds.

    Jack could be a time traveler, but it is much more likely that the people who worked on the movie had some errors in researching. But I do like the tangent you took with Jack being a time traveler changing history to save more lives in the future.
    [ This reminds me of that time where people thought that an unreleased footage from a 1928 Charlie Chaplin film showed a time-traveling woman in the background walking while appearing to talk on a cell phone. ]
    [ Just imagine if the Hindenburg didn't explode, would we all be flying on rigid airships? ]
    [ Added note on 1/10/2021 - not really new to the channel, been a sporadic viewer ever since MatPat hosted "The Runner" ... I was that person who won some monetary prizes from doing sketches of each team in the game ;) - those were fun days. but back to the point, i am fully aware of the style of theorizing Matpat does but most of the times there is a thread of in-world evidence and logic to back up his main point ... this one just seemed a bit lacking. I'd imagine that if he wanted to he could also craft a similar "Time-traveler" theory based upon some of the in-world time inaccuracies in Wonder Woman 1984 ;) ]

      It's more complicated then that. Rose just don't remember it correcly. She is over 100 years old, and trust me with how time can affect brain no wonder there is some anachronistic's in this.
      I know Mat prefers to make it zebras rather then horses, but it's much simpler that she doesn't remember it correcly and make up blanks in her memory. Because human mind doesn't remember anything at all, it just recall HOW we remember that event. That's why mandela effect or deja vu exist. It is how your brain alter your memory because more time passes and more blurry that memory is. It's like old magnetic tapes. The more you play them the less charge they have, and more distroted they get.
      On that note how does she remember him going with that bag. I mean why we have perspective of ANYONE other that Rose IN HER MEMORY.

    Let's not forget the whole story was told from a 101 year old Rose's perspective. A 101 year old who is about to die at the end of the movie could easily confuse Lake Wissota and Santa Monica Pier as something Jack said. I believe that could be a clue as to where Rose did most of her ice fishing later in life and the pier as something Rose definitely visited in the horseback picture between 1917-1923. Same thing with "Molly" Brown. She confused Brown's name she went by on the Titanic with the name she heard for years and years after the sinking just as she confused actually doing the activities with something Jack actually said.

      And now that you mentioned something, I could dive further into a lot of the internet hating on Rose as a "selfish {you know what}" and bring up what I really think happened in the story. I think Cal was just a really cool guy who might just be a victim of heartbreak and the stories of him chasing her with a gun might be over exaggerated. What might be perceived as a love story by Cameron might actually be disguised as a story about a spoiled rotten person.

      Here's the first thing I go to though: so, the posit is that in Jack's original timeline, the Titanic never crashes and sinks. So what his entire mission would boil down to is knowing EXACTLY where a particular iceberg will be in specific moment to make sure the boat hits it. Unless you're saying that he was taking several different trips beforehand to scout where all the icebergs were in the Atlantic, it's not like there's available information in the future on the coordinates of icebergs from the past.

      Yeah that could have killed even more people. The thing with humans is we learn from mistakes. Without the titanic sinking it would have caused those Maritime Laws to not exist for a few years or maybe ever. Or like how before 9/11 airport security was nothing like it was today and it was really low. After that day we fixed it so it would never happen again. To be honest if I had the ability to time travel like Jack…. I wouldn’t change a thing. We’ve survived this long and we have become a better species for it. For everything that has happened to have been possible it required these tragedies and sacrifices and I wouldn’t change any of them

      This person got inspired by me, went and created a time travelling machine so that he could go to the future to personally send me back to his past where my appearance had inspired him to create the machine in the first place.

    The time travel theory is fun, but the simpler explanation, creative license for the sake of relatability. Jack’s anachronistic references, like Lake Wissota and the Santa Monica roller coaster, were likely added to make his dialogue resonate with 1990s audiences. James Cameron focused heavily on historical accuracy in Titanic‘s set design and costumes, so these small details were probably minor creative liberties to evoke imagery modern viewers could easily visualize. The story is about romance and tragedy, not secret time-travel missions - but it’s definitely a cool theory!

    I think you're missing the more obvious Film Theory here;
    Jack is a time traveler, sure. He comes back, orchestrates a situation where he can get on The Titanic and sail across the globe on the historic vessel, which in his timeline is legendary. He's not some temporal agent, he's just a rich guy on a time travel holiday, playing a character.
    But then, he does something he's not supposed to do. He sees Rose about to jump and saves her. This sets into motion the events that cause Titanic to collide with the iceberg. This is why Jack is so surprised when the iceberg hits - This isn't the way history is supposed to go.
    He still has a plan, though - He'll bail out and head back to his own time before the ship sinks, so he gets Rose onto the lifeboat and then he'll be off... Only she doesn't get on the life raft. Now he needs to stay or she'll surely die. That's why he's so upset with her for jumping off.
    Ultimately, he dies and she survives and the whole timeline is messed up - And time travel is never invented for some reason and instead of being a time traveler, Jack ends up an actor...

      I honestly kept thinking his theory was going to bop into this one directly. His theory is good but not as good as "Terminator: Titanic" if only because his premise is based on the idea that people in an alternate future timeline where the iceberg disaster doesn't happen, somehow have figured out it would happen. Which given no one is there to see the iceberg, the ship famously states it's "iceberg proof" to paraphase it; which also would be way more glanced over in a history where it doesn't run into icebergs, etc. It's a lot of, "we know stuff from history were people were now never at, in the middle of the ocean, at night" to buy into them discovering that this one girl's suicide saved the ship but was disasterous in various other ways.

      @@GreyUsurper Whats more likely? That the writers and director all missed crucial details in their props and stories, or that they missed the fact that it would be pretty hard to predict an iceberg hitting the titanic if the titanic didn't hit an iceberg in the future. Your statement is 100% logical and actually is hard to argue against, but at that point we are arguing who made the biggest blunder. They could have just had Jack tell time appropriate stories or have him with unfiltered cigarettes and such, but they didn't. But thinking so far ahead as to how did the future even know there was an iceberg to hit in the first place is more of a missable plot hole in my opinion. All time travel stories are going to have plot holes, just depends on how big and noticeable. Yours is actually a very crucial and insightful one, but ultimately pretty small and missable if you aren't a gigabrain.

    Me: Well, if old Rose is telling the story of Titanic, then it would make sense some locations and dates don't aline because she forgot what Jack said and tried filling in the blanks herself...
    MatPat: *TIMETRAVEL*
    Edit: let me clear something up. I get that it wouldn’t make sense for the directors to purposely add incorrect parts in the movie- I’m just saying I think it’s funny that , to make the storyline make sense, matpat would insist on time travel rather than a more realistic answer. Yes, I know that the movie probably just had some errors to it, I’m just saying that I would theorize way different than MatPat :)

      Me before the theory: OK, I'll see it through. Maybe he has some good points or evidence that cannot be explained any other way to support his theory.
      Me after the theory: Really MatPat? Time-travel is a more likely explanation of the incorrect details than the old woman recounting the story misremembering or forgetting minor details (like the name of a roller coaster) and her mind just filling in the blanks due to not having a perfect, flawless memory of conversations which happened many decades ago? Yeah, no.

    This doesn't even acknowledge that massive impact that the Titanic Disaster had on passenger ship regulations.
    After it's sinking, it became mandatory for ships to carry enough life boats to support it's entire crew and all passengers (as it was not prior). This also being such a huge event, the "sinking of the unsinkable" and subsequent deaths of over 1,000 people provided a high-profile enough tragedy to see it done. 100 smaller ships could have sunk and killed tens of thousands but may not have had the impact of the Titanic.
    The sinking of the Titanic has saved thousands of lives, even to this day through the regulations put in place after it.
    Even omitting the whole WWI angle, it's sinking has caused a net-gain in human lives saved; making one mistake to prevent dozens of others.

      If he planned all this prior ( the ticket saga and the plan to sank) any delay would be bad, so he had to stop it, maybe he was looking for suicide attempts while walking around the ship.

      Voyagers would do something like this. 80s sci fi show where they travel through time not preserving it but changing it. "Give history a little nudge" to create the timeline that leads to their future.
      They will arrive to find that time isn't happening as their history books record it. So they have to "fix" it by changing history.
      Lincoln's kidnapped not by time travelers but by rebels which means in the "original" timeline the south won. But they save Lincoln creating the timeline they know. I'm not sure they thought of the implications of the show that deeply but it basically implied that our timeline is the result of time travelers messing up history.
      One of their agents gone rogue is even Jack the Ripper.

      If he can time travel he probably just looped until he got a good ending. After all, if mat's theory is correct, every time he fails he ends up safe and sound since the ship doesn't crash so he can just time travel/jump back to before the poker game and try again.
