What Titanic movies do you own, and what are their formats?

[James Hannah]

Well, I'm not sure if I should even post a reply as it's been over a year since the last activity on this thread, but here's my reply.

In Nacht Und Eis 1912 (download) DVD-R
La Hantise 1912 (download)
Atlantic 1929 DVD
Titanic 1943 Blu-Ray & DVD
Titanic 1953 Blu-Ray, DVD
A Night To Remember 1958 Blu-Ray & DVD
S.O.S. Titanic 1979 DVD (Blu-Ray release upcoming)
Raise The Titanic 1980 Blu-Ray/DVD Combo
Titanica 1995 DVD
The Titanic 1996 Blu-Ray & DVD
Titanic 1997 Blu-Ray/DVD Combo
Ghosts Of The Abyss 2003 Blu-Ray/3D Blu-Ray/DVD Combo
Titanic 2012 Blu-Ray & DVD
Saving The Titanic 2012 DVD
Titanic: Blood & Steel 2012 Blu-Ray & DVD

Most of these replaced VHS/VHS-R copies.

I hope to soon get a couple programs as well: Titanic: Birth Of A Legend, and Titanic: The Aftermath. Apparently there was also a 1984 German program covering the disaster inquiries - but I have not seen any U.S. home video releases of that one.

Didn't see this one on your list. Mention it because its one of my favorites. Its not perfect but for watchability its one of the better ones IMHO. I've got in both DVD and VHS. A&E's Titanic: Death of a Dream.

Titanic: The Legend Lives On (TV Movie 1994) ⭐ 8.6 | Documentary, History

This is my list:
(1) "Atlantic" 1929 (DVD)
(2) "Titanic" 1943 German Propaganda Movie (watched online)
(3) "Titanic" 1953 (DVD and VHS - also saw the movie in its first run in a theater in San Diego in 1953)
(4) "A Night To Remember" 1958 (DVD)
(5) "Titanic" 1997 (DVD and VHS)

I mean that the 'special effects' are very poor. The camera angle, lighting etc are all fine but the sinking effects were poorly staged. A lot of the scenes have an obvious studio model with stationary 'smoke' and in one scene towards the end, the ship is shown with thick smoke coming out of the funnels (engines had been off for a while) and going forwards towards the sunken bow! If you have the DVD, watch behind the Ismay character's head as he sits in the lifeboat.

Another negative point for me ANTR is that I don't like Kenneth More and I am not a Lightoller fan. So, one playing the other was not exactly watchable.

And I don't like the Tucker Maguire impersonation of Mrs. Margaret Brown ......LOL
But Kathy Bates ! Ah Yes ! But I guess from a somewhat prejudiced angle ? After all she did attend SMU in my old home town !

Interesting.... Is this a dramatized documentary, like "Saving The Titanic"? Or is it just a regular documentary, like "Titanica"? I like watching documentaries and this one sounds like something I would like to see, but as far as collections go, mine centers around dramatizations, although not all of them are theatrical releases. I received the DVD of "Titanica" as a gift which is the only reason I own it, even though it is a good documentary.

I give up. I don't know how to figure this out. Separating replies from comments, and now it shows individually and has a spreadsheet of some sort. Smh.

 

[Steven Christian]

It's a documentary, not dramatized. But it has a style of its own. IMDB labled it a (tv movie) but that's a poor discription.
