Alright, if you know anything about me, or have read any of my blog in the past you know I am a huge Titanic fan. I was FINALLY able to see Titanic in theaters!! In 3D!!
(Not including the theater in my parents house...)
Titanic came out in 1997, so I was in the first grade and I was way too young to see it, but I always wanted too! Having parents in the movie industry didn't exactly mean I was out of the loop for the records Titanic broke. I also grew up listening to the soundtrack, not really knowing what went where...I just thought it was pretty.
Then I finally saw it! I think I was in grade 4 or 5, my mom said if Brooke and I cleaned our rooms, we could watch it. Random...but i was thrilled! I have been in love ever since!
Not only can i recite the whole movie for you, but I could tell you countless facts about the movie, and the real
story. I even bought a "heart of the ocean" replica whilst visiting the Titanic museum. Such a nerd. Such a super-fan. Once upon a time I even had a Titanic board game, but I have no idea what ever became of it.
My mom and I went to the Saturday afternoon showing of Titanic in 3D on opening weekend, along with 20 other people in the theater, our 194 minute adventure began. The screen was dark and the first few notes of the score began and I lost it. I WEPT. Not just a few tears hear and there, but constant sobbing the whole movie. Seeing it in a theater was such an incredible experience! There was so many little details I had never noticed before, plus the 3D was actually pretty good and didn't take away from my experience. I tried my hardest not to quote every line before it was said to my mother. I was so absorbed every second of the movie until I realized there was only about 45 minutes left, then I started sobbing uncontrollably (well, more than I already was). I was a wreck, and was shaking for a solid hour after the movie. No words. Just a whole heck of a lot of emotions.
A bit obsessive? Probably.
I will never get sick of Titanic!
And yes, I did wear my necklace to the movie in case you were wondering.
And if you ever want to watch Titanic, I will gladly watch it.
So your praise of the show makes me want to see it again :) (I've seen it twice I think.... back when I was .... I don't know, 1998 or something like that). Glad you had such a good experience at the show :) This post made me smile
