Hello, all! 
I thought I would share this Titanic 20th Anniversary discussion video of mine. I worked incredibly hard on it over the last few months and thought I'd share it here for those of you who love and appreciate this film as much as I do. It's my favorite film of all time and I figured I'd make this video to share my perspective. I can tell you one thing for certain -- I would not be a Titanic enthusiast today if I never saw this movie. I know that for a lot of us younger Titanic enthusiasts, Titanic 1997 was our first exposure to the disaster and made an incredible impact on us. And it will most likely continue to carry the legend on for generations.
The hate that the film receives in general, but especially within the Titanic enthusiast community, is at times extremely overkill and not warranted in my opinion -- which is one of the reasons why I decided to make this video in the first place. I think a lot of people need to step back and realize how important the film actually is before they go spewing the same old, unoriginal complaints. As lovers of the ship and its history, we should be happy that more and more people continue to be introduced to the disaster every day thanks to this film. You have to think: Would the story of Titanic be as prevalent in the minds of non-enthusiasts if this movie never existed? Hmm. I think there are a LOT of things to love about this film. Things related to the disaster/history, as well as important themes within the fictional story as well. For various reasons I state in the video, I truly believe it should be celebrated.
Hope you enjoy.
