No comment – but I was getting desperate.

Half of the dialogue of Titanic was,


Rose: "JACK"

Jack: "ROSE"

Rose: "JACK"

Jack: "ROSE"

Rose: "JACK"

Jack: "ROSE"

Repeat for two hours....

My favorite part was when he drowned.

Books and a second TV helped keep my second marriage an outstanding success, although I did force myself to watch some of Sheryl’s favorite movies just to show I loved her. I would buy her favorites on tape – and she would watch them over and over and over and over and over and over and over…

The naked chicks fighting with swords scene was a thoughtful touch, too!

There is virtually no movie that couldn't benefit from a scene that has naked chicks fighting with swords..cases in point:

A)The Hours
B)Mona Lisa Smile
C)Anything by Merchant Ivory
D)Smokey and the Bandit
E)An Affair to Remember

Then the dialogue went to, "JACK, JACK, JACK!"


And the chemistry was so believable... /sarc

Yes.... my husband does like that scene too.... Personally, I like it when Rachel Weisz is shooting the guys trying to stop B.F. from getting to their son... but I guess thats just my maternal instinct coming out. ;P

My mom said "Titanic" was the stupidest film of the last 15 years, until we saw "Star Wars Episode 3" last week.

Both films lacked naked chicks fighting with swords.

You mom is wise.


Titanic was a beautiful film - the dialogue and the chemistry were horrible.

Leo is not (yet?) a romantic lead - he'll need chin hair first.

My husband doesn't like gangster movies. Maybe I'll check out the "Godfather" series when he takes our son to Webelos camp.

The problem for us chicks is - naked guys fighting with swords is a gay flick.

That is true, but so does "Fort Apache."

The last few chick flicks I was forced to endure were on airline flights. Enough to make me wanna take the bus.

I saw "Moulin Rouge!" on a plane, in Dutch with French subtitles, and it still reeked.

Philadelphia Story -- a chick flick that guys can like.

Only because the main character is named Tracy Lord(s) and she looks so good in riding pants (Spencer Tracy and Howard Hughes were lucky men).

LOL! Yeah I think the best part of the movie was the historic elements, but the more I thought about it, the more that movie annoyed me.
