I have a good friend who couldn't STAND the English Patient. At church youth group, he wrote "THE ENGLISH PATIENT IS HORRIBLE!" in huge letters on the whiteboard.

He later saw LA Confidential in the theater 23 times!! (It was at the dollar theater, so it didn't cost him TOO much - I don't know how much he paid for snacks.

)

I read that James Cameron made a GREAT decison with that movie (TITANIC; not STAR WARS which is just as great BTW) when he put in something for everyone-action/adventure for the boys and men, romance for the girls and woman, GREAT special effects for everyone, and then there's the added attraction of it being a true story; and one that continues to fasinate people, even after all these years.

That being said though, I've also heard that a few critics like the movie "A NIGHT TO REMEMBER" better. That was a movie that was made in the 50s about the Titanic disaster-which, BTW, is the biggest maritime disaster in history.

I've seen "A NIGHT TO REMEMBER" and I don't think it's better than "TITANIC" but it's almost as good.

Dean Winchester · 12-21-2007, 04:22 PM

is Cameron ever doing another movie? I can understand after directing the highest grossing movie of all time, that you'd feel like you're entitled to a vacation, but seriously, it has been ten years and he has yet to release a new non-Imax related movie. Imagine how many great movies we would've never gotten if Spielberg decided "you know, I just did Jaws/Raiders Of The Lost Ark/E.T./Schindler's List, I think I'm gonna take a decade off". Cameron even backed out of doing T3, despite the fact six years had passed since Titanic by then. I heard he might be involved in a new Alien movie (apparently one of Sigourney Weaver's conditions is that if she does another movie, either Ridley or Cameron has to be on board) and I hope he takes it. You can only live off the memory of Titanic for so long.

The sinking of the ship is true, but not the implausible romance with the two main Titanic characters.The British historical drama A Night Remember is one of my all-time favourites. For what it's worth, it's rated higher than Titanic at both IMDb and Rotten Tomatoes.

well, there was such a huge backlash that there's a lot of people who have given it a "1"
