The 102nd Anniversary of the Titanic's Sinking and My New Favorite Movie

Yesterday I watched Titanic, and I finally understand why it is one of the most money garnering movies of all time. The love of two people who have just gotten to know each other, and then circulate in a heart-stopping romance, is a truly wonderful thing to watch. I like to look back at the Titanic today because today actually is the 102nd anniversary of the sinking. That is, I find it very tempting to talk about the movie as well, what with it starring both Kate Winslet and Leonardo DiCaprio. Honestly, how can it get better? Not to mention that they built an actual life size replica of the ill-fated ship for Titanic (the movie), and flooded countless hallways, staircases, and basically brought to life a circumstance in history that couldn't be depicted anywhere else as well as it was depicted in that certain movie. Just to throw this in here, I know my Titanic rant may sound a bit stereotypical to some of you, especially if you are the people who I stopped at random in the hallway at school today to say "Isn't Titanic the greatest movie of all time?" I also would like to notice those who chose not to just ignore me like a Jack+Rose obsessed maniac but actually said. "I really liked that movie even though I watched it forever ago and it was made in the nineties and you are scaring me." Seriously. Thanks.
