Jack Aubrey Posted March 10, 2005 Share Posted March 10, 2005 (edited) From our friends at The Digital Bits: We've got some BIG DVD news for you today. Paramount is holding a special event next week to announce the fall DVD release of the Titanic: The Definitive Special Edition. We expect to have all the details on Tuesday afternoon, but as we've reported in The Rumor Mill recently, our sources tell us to expect a 2-disc and 4-disc set, patterned after New Lines Lord of the Rings DVD releases. The 4-disc will have the film spread over 2 discs for maximum anamorphic widescreen video quality, along with deleted scenes, literally hours of behind-the-scenes material, audio commentary and much more. Stay tuned on this! Edited March 18, 2005 by Jack Aubrey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sodoff Baldrick Posted March 10, 2005 Share Posted March 10, 2005 I'd heard a rumor years ago that they considered a Titanic sequel that followed Rose after she got off the boat. Guess it didn't pan out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kazzman Posted March 10, 2005 Share Posted March 10, 2005 There were three good parts. When she let him draw her; when the one guy started shooting people on the boats and when Jack died. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GhostGirl Posted March 10, 2005 Share Posted March 10, 2005 Jack...ya killin me! " 'Titanic' Special Edition DVD info, The boat sinks. He dies. Get over it...." Some of my FAVORITE lines from the flick: "The last thing I need is another picture of me looking like a porcelain doll." Awww, poor Rosie...we ALL have that problem. I was just saying that to myself the other day... Cal Hockley: "Where are you going? To him? To be a whore to a gutter rat? " Rose: "I'd rather be his whore than your wife." Again...which of us gals HASN'T had this conversation? Sorry, my cynicism is showing... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barney_rebel Posted March 10, 2005 Share Posted March 10, 2005 My favourite part is when the Celine Dion song comes on at the end during the credits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chasartymac Posted March 10, 2005 Share Posted March 10, 2005 I love this film. I was already a James Cameron fan anyway. I was blown away by his attention to the set detail. I do believe he even went as far as to buy paint from the original manufacturers to get exactly the right colour. The cutlery, plates, ornaments, carpets...everything, was as it was on the original.

It was one of those very long movies that held my attention throughout the entire movie, unlike JFK... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alsgalpal Posted March 18, 2005 Share Posted March 18, 2005 I liked the movie too. Not only did I get into the story, but I also got into the emotion of it. CAN YOU IMAGINE THE HORROR?? Of being on a ship, that will no longer feel air? And, knowing that you are saying good bye to the love of your life??? You will never feel them again, or hear their voice?? Not knowing if you can save your children, or keep them safe? Knowing that they depend on you, and trust you, and wonder what the hell is going on?? That all affected me in a very distinct way. I loved the movie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hero of Nobody Posted March 24, 2005 Share Posted March 24, 2005 That was 194 minutes of my life that I will never see again. And thank you Celine Dion, for solidifying my hatred of easy listening music. I did enjoy see the "man-child" diCaprio bite it in the drink, though.

Chasartymac Posted March 24, 2005 Share Posted March 24, 2005 (edited) Heh. You guys are wicked. Despite the fact we all know what happened, for me, it is a good story woven into factual history and made about as well as a film can be made. And Billy Zane was wickedly pompous.

Sodoff Baldrick Posted March 24, 2005 Share Posted March 24, 2005 FWIW, I did like seeing Victor Garber on the big screen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
