Titanic Time-Waster


Is it wrong that I'm crazy about Titanic? After all these years, I still can't resist watching it when I see it on TV. I know tons of people think it's cheesy and predictable but I just LOVE it! What's not to like - there's romance, intrigue, real-life drama and adventure all rolled into one!

I watched it like 5 times in the cinema when it was first released in 1997 (was that really 11 years ago - darn I feel old!).

I just finished watching it again and I realized it was time to stop tuning in when I found myself saying the lines before Jack and Rose did!

The only thing I've never liked (or understood) about it is the fact that old lady Rose threw that gorgeous, gigantic diamond into the ocean. If she kept it all those years, she should have either sold it and kept the money or passed it on to someone in her family.

Perhaps the old thing was losing her marbles?

I suppose that doesn't matter - what matters is that I don't end up the same way by contemplating this movie a minute longer!
