Did Rose die at the end of Titanic? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

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.

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!

DetectiveGriffin · 12-29-2003, 01:04 AM

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.

ive been wondering that for years, ive never understood it.

Ewan's My Man · 12-29-2003, 02:11 AM

Yea, I think I'm the only person who has NOT seen that movie..

Brent88 · 12-29-2003, 09:34 AM

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 Dream of Jeannie · 12-29-2003, 10:01 AM

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

webuster · 12-29-2003, 10:25 AM

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.

DetectiveGriffin · 12-29-2003, 10:33 AM

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

webuster · 12-29-2003, 01:53 PM

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 a great theatrical experience.... but I'll never watch it again.
