Why are there so many threads about this movie now? Did zoomers not know this existed until recently?
It's because a famous event involving the titanic just happened and people are capitalising on it.
Don't explain things to morons.
but enough about yourself for a second
it's leaped back into the american public psyche because of the sub implosion, people posting these threads are showing their age
Somehow that boat continues to hubris-troll richgays into easily preventable deaths to this day.
Yesterday I heard a zoomer say "we're gonna watch the titanic soon since it was finally discovered"
this mf thought the titan news recently was about them discovering the fricking titanic.
grim
They absolutely did hate her, we're on year 25+ of people saying what a b***h she was, endless parodies of her not letting Jack on door, talking about what a prostitute she was
You must've lived under a rock to not see just how much people hate her
I don't know of gee if only there was some website where you can put in title of the movie and it could show you some news from recent weeks about it
https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/titanic-netflix-titan-submerssible-implosion-b2363946.html
netflix make a lot of threads here
Because she showed her breasts. That’s literally it. breasts overshadowed each and every red flag that this character had. The 90s were a simpler time - show your breasts, you get a pass at being a b***h, yeah.
Do you also think that if Jenny showed her breasts in Forrest Gump people would've hated her less?
Not much has changed in that respect, that's literally what simps and orbiters revolve around.
It was a period romance dragged out for three hours that we were told to see because it's the current big movie event. Not many people stayed awake long enough to form an opinion of the characters.
Took my gf to see this and fell asleep at one point, remember being woken up and the ship was going down.
Anyone else remeber how the 2nd tape in the VHS collection started with the nude scene? Or are all of you too young to have owned VHSs?
No it didn’t. When it starts she already stuck the iceberg. Nude scene is before that happens. Last line of dialogue in the first VHS tale was captain Smith saying “you may have your headline” or something along those lines.
>t. childhood Titanic autist
Based knower anon. Titanic inspired two lifelong passions in me as a lad. History, and music. The Titanic was the first thing I ever did real historical research on, starting at age 10. I also thought the musicians playing Nearer my God to Thee was beautiful, so I started to take violin lesson, also at age 10. I'm now 24 years old, have a history degree (with a good job, don't worry about that), and to this day I still play the violin.
Nice blog homie no one asked
i bet you also suck the wiener
the second tape starts with them hitting the iceberg. It was done intetionally so you can skip all the romance bullshit and watch the sinking
It scares me that millions of women saw this character and said "she's literally me". It does however make me feel better about being a jobless, broke, NEET loser. The only problem is women won't consider a film to be a good love story unless the man literally kills himself.
Should I just move to Malibu and live in my car and hang out at coffee shops pretending to be a sensitive writer working on a book until some rich girl cheats on her millionaire husband to be with me and takes half of his money to start a new life with me?
Men didn't complain about the character either. Life before the Internet Manosphere and feminism was more chill
>live in my car and hang out at coffee shops pretending to be a sensitive writer working on a book
my old roommate has done this for nearly a decade now and has slept with countless women. i dont know if hated them before he started or if it was something he learned but ive never seen someone with more weird bitterness toward half of humanity
My friend is a professional musician and didn't start hating women until his next door neighbor with a husband overseas in Iraq fricked him.
He blamed himself for a really long time and felt guilty but when he told me the story he put absolutely no effort into trying to frick her and she made continual passes at him until he was shitfaced drunk one night and she just showed up on his doorstep and he finally relented.
I don't get why a man would voluntarily join the US military in this day and age unless he was a closet homosexual who wanted to actively spend his early 20s around sweaty men and I think women pick up on that sort of thing and get very upset about it.
>He blamed himself for a really long time and felt guilty but when he told me the story he put absolutely no effort into trying to frick her and she made continual passes at him until he was shitfaced drunk one night and she just showed up on his doorstep and he finally relented.
It sounds like some reverse #metoo cope. Your friend is a scumbag, just like the wife.
>I don't get why a man would voluntarily join the US military in this day and age unless he was a closet homosexual who wanted to actively spend his early 20s around sweaty men and I think women pick up on that sort of thing and get very upset about it.
Not an American, but for some it's cultural/patriotic thing, and from what I heard, it's also way of a very quick climb up the social/economic ladder. You come back from a deployment at 24, and suddenly everyone respects you when they hear you're a veteran, and the dough is real nice if you're not some STEM chad. Whatever his motivations were, he did not deserve to be cucked.
Jobs are easier to find and in my field you get bonus points on your cert exams if you're a vet. Downside is you're still surrounded by civvies and women you can't yell at like troopers under you.
The real question is:
What would have happened had the Titanic not sank? Is this a relationship that would last under the circumstances?
Rose said she would leave with Jack when they arrived in New York.
I remember a girl saying something like that to me once, when the endorphins were still fresh.
Well she sort of kept her promise since she never went back to the rich guy.
She obviously would have stayed with Hal for the money and kept fricking Jack on the side
Yes, did you forget that Rose renounced both her mother and Cal for being money hungry buttholes who didn't care about her well-being? Jack was "it" for her.
"For richer or for poorer"
being in love with a poor man >>>>> not being in love with a man who would have eventually become poor from the crash of 1929
So I think Jack and Rose would have endured.
That's what they say until reality hits and they live in a bad area, with no car, and get maybe one holiday a year to somewhere cheap. The rich guy starts to look real good again after a few years of that.
The real catastrophe would be when all the "passion"/ the honeymoon phase wore off. - zizek
She would have cheated on him with disabled migrant book author
What we don’t see is that Rose’s mum had to start doing tricks for $1 a pop thanks to Rose. When the depression hit, she would’ve had to show Rose the ropes so she could feed the kids and they’d go back to being one big happy family.
it's because people believed in true love and a lot of boomers built their relationships together instead of marrying some rich man so they saw it as their young selves
female self insert
Because she is a queen that knows exactly what she wants and gets it. Only an incel would dislike this character
everyone hated her
the women went to see leo
the men went to see boats
Can you blame her for falling in love with a young Leonardo DiCaprio?
>if you fall in love with someone else you are obligated to fricking destroy the person you are with right now by rubbing their face into the fact that you've fricked another man and steal their most valuable belongings
Didn't he beat her?
He slapped her after she rubbed into his face that she had fricked Jack the night before.
Maybe not acceptable by todays standards, but in 1912 pretty much every man on the planet would have done that
I think people before social media were much more laid back and didn't take everything personally. Male-female relations also weren't as strained as they are today
>SEA incels still seething about a woman choosing not to be in an arranged marriage
Stop raping women you monkeys
I don't how history got retconned and people started acting like this is some sort of kino. Everyone I know made fun of this movie when we were teenagers. It was seen as a cheesy romance movie with a terrible song and nothing more. It was a total anomaly that it made so much money. It just happened to have the right mix of sfx and romance to be a great date movie at the right time.
>It was a total anomaly that it made so much money
It's not an anomaly. It was very expensive, and heavily advertised.
It was the highest grossing film by a long shot, and it was a shitty romance movie with a disaster movie at the end. It was an anomaly.
How is it an anomaly? Romance movies and disaster movies are popular
Do you know what anomaly means? It was in theatres for like a fricking year and made $2 billion in the 90's.
>be Hollywood blockbuster
>make lots of money
>morons on the Internet are baffled by this
I'm not responding again after this. Prior to titanic, all the movies topping the highest grossing were shit like ET and Star Wars, and Titanic came along and made twice as much money and played in theatres twice as long. Multiple blockbusters come out every year. Back then, they never broke records like they do know, because they didn't have the massive inflation or expanding international markets.
The romance isnt shitty, the story is actually quite good, u all need to se the difference between story, and dialogue writing (this is the only weak part of this movie). Performances are good, casting is perfect, especially Leo and Kate, both looks great, they have chemistry. Production design is amazing, costume design is amazing, cinematography is great, soundtrack is amazing. Technical stuff are all top notch sfx etc... The film is objectively great in almost every part of filmmaking, except some cringe dialogues. Its soulful movie, non-pretentious with heart in right place. The pacing is also great, story structure is good, first half bult the romance well, to the second half with hitting the iceberg just punch more because of that. One of the best movies of all time.
ESL subhumans need to be killed en masse soon or I will unironically stop coming to this god forsaken website
reading your dogshit attempts at an argument remind me every day that I share this site with fricking pajeets who can't find a fricking toilet to save their 30 brothers and sisters
>My grandmother was married to my grandfather for almost 60 years
>Greatest, most loyal, loving woman I ever knew
>Never cursed, great mother and grandmother, fantastic wife
>Grandpa served in the navy in WW2 and was bombed by the Japanese
>He gets back and meets my grandma in college
>Marries my grandmother and they have four children together including my mom
>Grandma is a housewife, my Grandpa works his whole life as a lumberjack and later as a teacher
>Gramps has severe untreated PTSD his whole life from the war
>Grandpa passes away the same year this movie came out
>Years later on her deathbed Grandma reveals to my mom for no reason that her one true love was a guy she dated for two months in high school that got shot by some kraut in France and that she settled for my grandpa instead
>She never told my Grandpa about this
>Mom tells me this information for no reason
That's it. She was the last one. That was the only woman I didn't hate and thought was actually a good person. What the frick am I gonna do? God damn it. God fricking damn it.
>picrel
That video of the subway schizo black guy shitting while shouting is kino
This is exactly why your ancestors tried to keep women chaste. They only love once.
Wyatt Stagg should do a video on this movie, it's the ultimate boomer film
>it's the ultimate boomer film
Nah, that's Forrest Gump.
She's a female self-interest living out the fantasy of a good girl sleeping with a bad boy. Titanic is a film for women.
Is it true Edward Carson controlled the icebergs and was the one sunk the Titanic.
She was a self insert for women at the time. Most people drooled over Jack and women wanted to be her because of DiCaprio.
Because only girls watched this in 1997. Some guys don't know or have forgotten this was a big budget chick flick
She's just an avatar for the audience, which is primarily horny women.
they did, you weren't alive dumbass
>they did
Source?
It's either your resources or your life. Wimminz see it as romantic
Rose's breasts were the first breasts I've ever seen. So part of me still loves her
>tfw Dad playfully covered my eyes with his hand
I think he was checking to make sure I was straight and dodged that fricking hand.
She showed her breasts
She gave me a redhead fetish and blue necklaces.
I get the redheads
But blue necklaces?
she showed her vajij & bobeeb and it looked good.
>vajij & bobeeb
Cute
lack of saturation and available good movies at the time,
pre streaming and fast internet it was slim pickins, so people looked at movies differently,
and still somehow think James cameron made anything good after T2
Why do you pretend True Lies or Titanic were bad? I can understand criticism for Avatar, but come the frick on you contrarian frick
They are bad,
Rewatch them recently,
Everyone is wearing rose tinted glasses thinking about them, and JC was never a visionary, he was given bigger budgets after he succeeded with another genre.
look at what the titanic was up against,
Slim pickins,
Frick you, James is out of touch, always has been
Opening weekend the Titanic went up against
George of the Jungle
the Bean Movie
The Fifth Element
Titanic is VERY overrated, and people remember it fondly because it was the only ticket seller for christmas of 1997
>Fraserkino
>Atkinsonkino
>Milla Jovovichkino
Wow, Titanic had some actual competition there
not among general audiences,
I actually think the Fifth Element is the best sci fi movie ever made,
So yeah
Because feminism and glamorizing infidelity were all the rage in the 90s.
She had nice moktar
What I don't get to this say is why she was so pudgy?
She looked like Leo's mother.
Couldn't lose few kilos for the role?
>pudgy
That look was hot back then.
I'm not saying she should be skinny.
Just lose a bit so her natural lines would show.
Just look at OP's pic - her face looks like a round potato.
>Just look at OP's pic - her face looks like a round potato.
She's a bong.
Most men did. Most women didn't.
Hello there, person who wasn't alive yet.
Her ass was nice
Anyone else remember how this movie caused some girls to become deeply interested in the history of the Titanic? Suddenly they'd start talking about historical details, individual passengers and survivors etc.
For a brief moment this movie actually turned normal girls into autistic dudes
she was considered fat in 1997
so you had to feel sorry for her
>I live a comfy 0.01% life where my job is symbolic and I just have to attend vapid dinners that amount to maybe 36 hours/month and give my husband children. Beyond that I can indulge in my hobbies of philosophy, art and my husband will pay for all of it. Early 20th century working class life where 70+ hour work weeks is much more appealing!
because in 1997 the american population hadn't reached the level of brainrot that we are at today
saying things like "she should have stayed with her abusive husband" would rightfully get you mocked relentlessly
based
>she should have stayed with her abusive husband
He wasn't abusive though?
>had a problem with his fiance starting an open relationship
>thought by marrying a woman he controls her sex life
That's abuse, Chuddie
Terminal boomerbrain
violently turning over a table full of food to intimidate a woman is abusive
imagine your daughter's fiance doing some shit like that in front of you for a minute. would you just say "welp, not my problem i guess" like a cuck?
also she didn't even love the guy to begin with which is enough to not want to marry someone. her prostitute mother was forcing the marriage because they were falling on hard times and didn't want to lose the life she had grown accustomed to, and was perfectly willing to force her daughter into a loveless marriage.
in reality the mother was the worst person in the social circle. she forces rose into this sham relationship when rose doesn't even like cal, and that causes her to act bratty which causes cal to get angrier and angrier.
it would have been best if she never entered the relationship and led cal on, but rose's mother architected this entire heartbreak so she could stay eating caviar.
>cheating on your fiancee with a random bum you just met and rubbing it in his face is "acting bratty"
Come the frick on. "B-but she didn't love him" is no excuse for this shit.
>1900s
>merely gets a slap for cheating, not a beating that disfigures her face permanently or an honor killing for being a prostitute
>abusive
>husband
fiance. they weren't married, from memory
>Terminal boomerbrain
Cringe
Objectively the worst thing about that film was telling millions of impressionable young girls that it is perfectly ok - ideal even - to have unprotected pre-marital sex within 48 hours of meeting a guy. Extremely irresponsible message to send.
Christgaygaloons ho Lee shit
not religious, just sensible. fatherless children raised by single mothers aren't a good idea
>I'd rather be his prostitute than be your wife
Are women really like this?
Yes the true white pill is that women don't care about money as much as they don't do about the man itself
This movie is a metaphor for Western civilization. Note how the engineering marvel "unsinkable" ship, the pinnacle of Western ingenuity, sinks miserably, and this is paralleled with the story of a white woman embracing her bawdtiness
no they are pretty loyal tbqh
I did. Awful boobs fricking gagged and was sitting next to my brother cringe experience
>How come the audience in 1997 didn't hate this character?
I did
we were busy jacking off to her
She is adorable, hot and don't take shit from a entitled rich male.
She is not property of anybody, because women are not objects.
>because women are not objects
good luck convincing women of that
This happens because of bad guidance given to them by men. Men are to blame for this degeneracy.
I would like to remind or acknowledge this board that j.cameron STOLE the story from an italian comic.
There was plenty of criticism of her and how she wouldn't move over on that raft for Jack but other than showing her breasts she was mostly an afterthought in the movie after the much more compelling Jack character & the groundbreaking visuals. Her breasts were a big part of the appeal tho like as a dude I went and saw Titanic knowing about the scene, as an adolescent boy that didn't yet have access to the world's most depraved pornography it was reason enough to watch and rewatch a movie. The gender war as we know it didn't exist yet in the mainstream, "feminist" was literally a dirty word in the last 90s so people upset with the opposite gender just kept to themselves as opposed to broadcasting it to a bunch of other miserable fricks.
because she is a 17 year old girl who doesn't know any better
