James Cameron, TITANIC Animation

It’s unhealthy about how obsessed I am with this ship-

WHY THE HELL AM I SO OBSESSED WITH THIS F**KING SHIP?!

Fun fact: As a lifelong Titanic fan, Cameron said that the main reason he made the movie was so he would have an excuse to go on expeditions to explore the wreck. The fact that the movie was so successful was basically just a bonus.

When my grandfather saw Titanic for the first time, he warned people that he was going to sink. So they told my grandfather to shut up. But, he kept warning, but they didn't let him speak, and they told him to shut up. After warning for the third time that Titanic would sink, they removed my grandfather from the cinema.

It's mind boggling how huge the ocean is. It makes Titanic look smaller than a pinhead.

“Ship breaks in two, that looks good.” “People screaming for help and slowly freezing to death, that looks good.” “Funnels break and crush people, that looks good.” “Water crashes through glass dome on the grand staircase, which drowns somewhere around 50 people, maybe more...that looks good.”

Fun fact. If you take out all of the modern scenes in Titanic the total film time is 2 hours and 40 minutes, the same amount of time it took Titanic to sink. James Cameron is a perfectionist.

I’ve lived for 47 years on solid ground in the middle of a continent. Seeing this sink, knowing land was 600km and the bottom is 3.8km, watching the ocean rise up to swallow it, always scares the hell out of me. Yet I keep watching.

"Yup that's right" Cameron says that over and over like he was there.

When I was in the Marine Corps, I had the honor of being on a US Navy ship that was close enough to make a small detour to the location of the sinking en route back to the States. We stopped for 5 minutes and had a moment of silence but it was so surreal to be there and imagine what that was like. Hell, even just being at the site and thinking of the fictional movie that is Titanic if only to give me a sort of idea of what to imagine created interesting thoughts and painful emotions. All the time I think about just sitting there in the ocean. Whether or not in the boat or the water...it's hard to imagine. Hard to imagine in general but we also know that the Carpathia made it to the scene. However, they didn't know that so it seems even more eerie and surreal to think that even if you were in the boats, you would still be sitting there like everyone else. You're just a spec in the ocean floating there. THEN add in the fact that some are in the water and others or not. Again, we know how it ends but I try to put myself in that situation and it seems both hopeful and hopeless to think that someone might be coming or that the boats will be coming back to pick up those in the water.

As an old lady once said ... "Thank you for that fine forensic analysis, Mr. Bodine."

I remember watching the old interviews of survivors and what got me was when the one man said how everyone in the water were crying, praying etc. Then as time passes and people were dying the silence that came over the ocean was deafening. My heart broke just imagining that horror.

People dying, drowning, panicking, crying, they will never see their loved ones ever again... "Bada bing bada boom"

" The arrogance, the hubris, the feeling of we're too big to fail ".. You just described Hollywood James.

Anyone out there who is inexplicably obsessed with this ship needs to go to one of the Titanic museums out there! I went to the one in Las Vegas and it made me feel like I was on the ship. There are so many of us who feel so drawn to everything involving this ship. I think there's a part of those lost passengers that was passed on and lives in us somehow. When you go to something like these museums it's like something just clicks. Like a sense of "going home" or something. It was designed to look like you're on the ship and it's full of personal belongings and pieces of the ship. It was emotionally overwhelming and beautiful at the same time.

Cameron is obsessed with Titanic. But I feel him. I'm obsessed with old Ocean liners period.

It's crazy the effect this story has on people, I took my friend and her 10 year old boy to the Titanic Museum in Belfast last summer, the kid knew very little about it but yet spent hours studying every detail of the ship and it's demise in the Museum, he was completely captivated by it and his mum told me he wouldn't stop talking about how amazing it was to do the tour.
