The acting is irrelevant. Titanic is a rubbish film.

LittleSilver · 20/03/2010 20:24

YANBU.

"Jude" otoh, is phenomenal, especially considering she must have been all of about 21 by then.

southeastastra · 20/03/2010 20:24

i liked titanic and i like kate so i suppose you are being unreasonable

PfftTheMagicDragon · 20/03/2010 20:28

she's very normal, don't you know?

cornsilk · 20/03/2010 20:30

Even Leonardo looks like a shit actor in Titanic. That's how bad Titanic is.

noddyholder · 20/03/2010 20:30

I am watching it quite enjoying it but ut s tripe Leonardo cute in his posh gear though

noddyholder · 20/03/2010 20:30

it is

MiladyDeWinter · 20/03/2010 20:31

I think the Kate Winslet character would be more than happy to chain herself to the Billy Zane one for life if she happened to be born piss-poor, any love for Leo be damned.

But that's life, not a romantic movie

juneybean · 20/03/2010 20:32

Ohhhhhh I loved this movie when I was younger But to be fair, it was all about the ship for me, didn't care about the love story.

I even had one of those puzz 3d.....

MumMeh · 20/03/2010 20:32

Ha ha. In that case I am B doubly U for loathing her and every film she's ever been in.

But, as you say, Pfft, she's just soooo normal.

Portofino · 20/03/2010 20:32

I loved Titanic! You can worry about stuff too much....

ItsGraceAgain · 20/03/2010 20:32

I'm watching but am gobsmacked by what a pile of drivel it is! Better check if the other channels have finished with the sports yet ...
Oh, oh, I got Sleepy Hollow with today's Telegraph! Johnny Depp 4 me, then

Hulababy · 20/03/2010 20:35

OH, I really dont like this film. It goes on forever. I was willing them to all die and the shi go down after two hours just so it would finish. (Obviously not in real life, just in the film, before I got told it is bad taste, etc.) I am sure the actual rea ship probably did go down quicker than in this film. Urgh, it really dragged on.

southeastastra · 20/03/2010 20:35

what is the appeal juneybean? my son has been obsessed with titanic

juneybean · 20/03/2010 20:38

No idea southeastastra I used to wish I had been born back then as well, even when I watch the movie now I skip to the bit where it hits the iceberg because I can't be bothered with the love story.

southeastastra · 20/03/2010 20:41

ha my ds is like that he has a model and sinks it in the sink

it's so obessive i was worrying, but won't now. i suppose

juneybean · 20/03/2010 20:44

Haha I got over it eventually ? LOL though I'm still interested in reading about it and stuff :P

MiladyDeWinter · 20/03/2010 20:46

Men generally don't like Titanic because after all, they know what happens at the end so don't see the point.

It has lots of technical things and computer-generated stuff though so that might be the appeal for boys. My dd loves it because it has glamour and isn't bothered about anything more than the sets and costumes. She usually switches off halfway through.

My DH thinks James Cameron can't do real characters which develop and which have depth. They are always very 2D.

And it has no aliens or guns

Tortington · 20/03/2010 20:46

this film was an absolute favourite of my ds2. it led ( amongth other things) to me thinking he was gay.

he isn't - am i wrong to be slightly dissapointed?

cornsilk · 20/03/2010 20:47

lol custardo - did you watch 'Queer as Folk'when it was on - the mums would go out clubbing with their sons and have a fab time!

Tortington · 20/03/2010 20:52

no never seen it - am asking dh right now to download it for me. i mean its mancunian its a must. i only went out on canal street a couple of months ago got a free drink off a drag queen. i digress... yes exactly that is what i thought, here i am next to brighton i thought wayhay, my luck is in i shall sing scissor sisters 'take your mama out all night' and every fink

cornsilk · 20/03/2010 20:53

ha ha We can only hope!

noddyholder · 20/03/2010 20:54

bit like me with ds he was obsessed with romeo and juliet and is hugely into acting and everything
