I dont get the ending. Did Rose Die or was she dreaming. I was checking to see if she was breathing she had her mouth open but i couldnt tell. And then the music every night in my dreams i see you i feel you. The music "In my dreams" so it was a dream? She said hes only in her memory. Does anyone get it.

The way i see it, yes, she did die.

And she rejoined Leo on board the ship with all the others who perished there.

Wow, now that I think about it, that was a depressing ending.

I don't know if Rose died, but I was definitely dying in the theater.

:barf:


Ahh, I'm just kidding.
But the movie is overrated.

I think the movie holds the record (at least to me, anyway) as the most overrated movie I have ever seen. Even today I don't know what all the jazz was about. I'd prefer any of James Cameron's work over that movie any day like True Lies, The Terminator, T2: Judgment Day, and other works

This is one of my favorite movies of all time. Not overrated to me at all. My daughter loved Rose so much when this movie came out (she was 2) she called her Princess Rose. She still lovse it.


The way I see it, yes Rose died at the end of the movie. She went back and rejoined Jack and all of the others who died when the Titantic sunk - which is where she was most at peace.

Remember when Jack told her when they were in the water at the end that she was going to die an old woman, warm and in peace in her own bed and that she did.

Now I'm gonna have to watch this movie, I haven't seen it for a couple months!

I never thought of it that way. I wasnt thinking she died at all, just that she was dreaming about something she probably dreamed about often.

I resisted watching the movie for a long time, because i cannot stand love stories! I want car chases and explosions and exploding cars chasing and being chased, but they got me with the darn historical hook and good characters. :( jerks.

I don't know... you could make the argument that she died and that she survived. She was on the Carpathia at the end going into NYC and then you see her back on Titanic with all the people who died. I don't know, but that ending was very sad. :(

I think she died in her sleep, and the dream thing, was just her reuniting with everyone, but you know what makes me wonder, if her husband, not Jack but her husband she had afterwards, died before her as well, where's he, I guess that turned into a triangle. LMHO

I thought about this alot after seeing the film when it opened. There were debates for weeks, and every few months- the debate would re-remerge.

I'm not sure, but I think she may not have died. It makes sense to kill her off at the end, because she'd lived a long life and was in some pain remembering the ordeal on the Titanic- but I think she lives.

Also- did anyone else ever see the script to the sequel posted online? I don't know if it was fan fiction- after the film came out I'd heard rumours of a sequel. The script I saw was about Jack not dying and being saved by another boat. I didn't read more than 2 pages- because it was terrible. Anyone who even considered for a second making a sequel should be ashamed IMO.

If it was that bad, it must have been a fan fic.

The rumour of the titanic sequel had been going round about a month after the hype had died down a bit. Maybe some fan fic writer decided to write the sequel himself, knowing a real sequel would be unlikely. But there were so many rumours of what would happen in the film- maybe he took them all and used them. But it was like a 300 page detailed script as I recall.

I will sit through the whole 3 and a half hours of that movie dry-eyed... until that one minute at the end, when it flashes back to everyone on the grand staircase, her meeting Jack... right there, I just lose it.

"Titanic" was an excellent movie. I have it on 2 VHS's.

I think that was the perfect ending to that movie. I saw it twice, and that is quite enough...never again.

I orignally wanted to see it because in the early 1900's, my great, great grandparents used to travel between Poland and the states all the time on huge, ship lines like that, so I was interested to see what it might have been like and wow, the scenery and the atmosphere was amazing (my family was always in third class, so they had all that dancing and drinking fun with those Irish ;)). The "true" aspect of the movie was amazing, but the love story killed me. It was too lovey-dovey for my tastes, bleh. plus, it didn't help that I saw it with my uncle and older cousin when I was like 12. especially that handprint-in-the-car scene.

I was so addicted to the movie when it first came out. Held the record at my highschool for seeing it the most times in the theater (17) and yeah, I don't know what I was thinking. In hindsight, it's an increddibly overrated movie, definatley not worth all the hype.

But anyways, when I had Titanic fever, I did watch all the interviews and read all the books. Cameron said he left it deliberately open at the end - for the viewers to decide if she died/dreamed it. Either answer's right. :)

I used to kill that movie when it first came out! I saw it in theatres like 5 times and when it was released on video I watched it everyday.

Titanic is a very sad movie indeed. No one thought that seeing a ship sink would make you cry so much. I bought the DVD because when I went to the movies I cried my head off. Good to get your sinuses cleared up. LOL.
Looks like Rose, after throwing the 'Couer de la mer' back to the ocean she was at peace with herself and went back to the grand stairwell to meet with everyone but 'at the other side';)

In Titanic I believe it's Jack who dies and Rose survives and when she is waiting to see if Jack is alive after the ship sinks she holds his hand until he is gone and she cries for him while swimming. My mom is a fan of Titanic since it first came out and she originally wanted to see it in the theater but she bought it on video and loved it. My mom got to watch it when I was asleep and I have a funny story to tell about it. When my mom was watching the scene where the ship gets hit by the iceberg I woke up and I thought my room was moving and so I got up to see what happened but the next day I was clinging to my pillow and I asked my mom what had happened and she said she was watching Titanic and was sorry to wake me up the night before. Even today when my mom and I watch Titanic we always repeat the line Jack, Jack don't leave me" when Jack dies and it's pretty sad but at least Rose had the chance to get to know him very well and I wonder if Jack would've survived the Titanic's sinking would he have been Rose's crush forever?
