Thank George Bush jr. For the twin towers, preplanned cause a war to use the US military to sneak over to Syria(right next door to Iraq) to secure more Bush family oil wells, already proven, save your breath. And the Titanic had 2 investors from Spain that had a huge vault on the ship with the agreed purchase price of the state's then. We would be flying a different flag today. It was 2 groups that devised the sinking, and previous to leaving the dock they disabled the section plates that automatically close each section if leaking. That little slice would have caused her to slow down a bit and lean a little, but Never sink. They had to make sure it was definite. Several workers knew they were sacrificing their lives but were promised that their families would be well provided for. Again, already proven and documented numerous times. Have a Great Day!

I loved this movie when it came out. The idea of raising the Titanic, although you knew it would never happen, was cool to think about. Nobody knew where it was, or what shape it was in. So the idea of raising it one day was an intriguing idea. Given the fact that they had raised other vessels. However that dream was ruined, a few years later, when they discovered the Titanic and found out it was in 2 pieces. The movie is still good, but that intrigue is gone now, knowing the real condition of the ship.

Some of the survivors in the lifeboats said that they saw it split in two before it sank but nobody believed them. Then Robert Ballard found the wreck and proved their story to be true.

I do too! But, I also don't.. Considering the fact it's basically a grave. And, it would be very disrespectful. Even though it would be so fascinating! It would also crumble as soon as it hit above the water. Or as it was being raised because of the movement and it being over 100 years old. But another reason it would crumble is because of how deep it is in the ocean and the pressure holding it together. I'm thirteen, and when I was seven I watched the movie and have been fascinated with it ever since. I remember my grandmother saying I cried, not just from animals dying, but from children and the unfair treatment to lower class people. But, this movie is a little incorrect. He would have fallen through the rotted wood. And, it would have smelt horrible, also, maybe a trace of human remains here or there.

@Kane John I was mostly talking of the visual effects, not the accuracy of the ship so much. But point taken.

[@callsignvapor07]

Kane John that’s also you hating on the movie. Just enjoy the film!

My favorite part is when he explores the inside of the ship. Just imagine what that must have been like :)

[@visualkeifan2003]

not at all like this the ship is crumbles and in to pieces

[@davidaikman1920]

i know, but at least the fantasy still remains :)

My favorite part is when the ship arrive to new york...like.... The titanic finally made it.

Raise the Titanic is one of my favorite movies in the whole wide world I have it on VHS. In fact I had a friend of mine bring it to a meet and greet where David Selby was and I had David Selby sign the cover of the VHS. Nothing beats the moment when that ship breaks the water and starts to emerge after what 80 something years....

John Barry's music really sells this.

[@marcfield1234]

This was five years before the wreck was discovered. We did know that it had split in half at that point.

[@callsignvapor07]

We did not know until we found it.

This movie is very depressing for me because my grandmother told me I had relatives ancestors that have died in the titanic and also remembering September 11, 2001 we will never forget

[@JHallam77]

Loved this film as a kid. I was and am obsessed with Titanic/Olympic, just fulfilled that dream of Titanic being back afloat..

[@cutercills9x9productions9]

If we tried that, the Titanic wreck would fall apart before we even lifted it, due to mass deterioration. Nature is just destructive to the point that there will be a time where everything beautiful in the universe will be eaten away.

I dont know why but any other ship is just a ship to me..but the titanic is super special to me..

[@Timster2]

This film was made in 1978 and released in1980-years before the Titanic was discovered. Nobody knew exactly what the condition of the real Titanic was at that time. The thought was it would be well preserved due to the depths it was resting in.

[@DANIELLE_BREANNA_LACY]

And it was pretty well preserved. There was just hardly anyone who believed what the survivors of the disaster said about the Titanic breaking in half before sinking until the wreck was finally found.

[@xXaspie62Xx]

Seeing Titanic and the towers in one shot feels so wild to me

[@arxe_d3505]

Weird how the Twin Towers are in the background, it’s still just shocking and sad to know that those glorious buildings are no more on the New York skyline.

[@chopper_875]

R.I.P twin towers/world trade center ;( they crumbled down due to hijacked planes heading to them :(

[@aviationdude1]

The decks on Titanic would have rotted to the point where those guys would just have fallen right through the ship if they stepped on it Edit: Thx for the likes I have never gotten this many on KZbin!

[@daalt4381]

they didnt know if it broke until 1985

[@daalt4381]

also they thought the funnles didnot fall

[@daalt4381]

in short they didn't have alot of information to work with

[@daalt4381]

but ok

[@callsignvapor07]

No, there’s still metal under the decks.

[@michaelmcclellan6944]

A pure fantasy...but an entertaining fantasy,too.

[@joshuaswanson1977]

Right. Given the publication of the novel in 1976 and the movie in 1980 when it was still believed to be in one piece, it was plausible. Maybe not possible, but plausible.

[@SillyLooBird]

That was way more epic than it should’ve been 😢

[@Darklord666123]

This is a Titanic's fanatic dream come to life.... The score with this raising is so beautiful though. You have to commend the movie on model detail also! Dont forget this was filmed BEFORE scrientists and researchers discovered the wreck in two pieces (well.....slightly more than two)

[@avirti]

People are always banging on about how inaccurate this film is, but it's just a movie, I like to think of it as a "what if?" Fantasy film. I loved this movie as a kid and I still love it now the scene where titanic breaks the surface is still as spectacular as ever.

Although this is inaccurate, it’s entertaining as hell to watch.

[@DamonNomad82]

Fun fact about the movie this clip is from: they used a derelict, 50-year-old ocean liner that had been sitting and rotting for 10 years as the set for the Titanic. The liner they used was originally named the SS Santa Rosa, later renamed the SS Athinai.

[@lewydmusic]

Wait really?

[@NoobsDudes]

Made before it was found! They didn't know it was destroyed they thought it was fine!

[@CosplayDreams16]

I love it when Titanic flies the White Star Line flag again. It's so inaccurate but nice to see.

[@Drakelx55]

Man there’s so many inaccuracies both on the exterior and interior, you’d think a movie crew could’ve read a book or something

[@alan_decker]

You should read more about the move and stuff, this was made in 1980, they found the wreck in 1985

[@shannimarie1857]

This would be so amazing but reality is that the ship is in two and is not nearly in that kind of condition. So sad to see the ship decaying at the bottom of the Atlantic. So sad too that the items from it are being sold off. The buyers should donate them to Titanic museums.

[@2003BMW325i]

The interior scenes were filmed on the SS Santa Barbra, which had been out of service and rotting for over a decade. It apparently needed very little conversion for the filming because of the level of neglect

[@unitedkingdomofgreatbritai9]

I love how in ths wreck model, the hull, super structure, both masts, three of the four funnels, and rigging are entirely intact, and the decks are safe to walk on, which is unrealistic for any ship wreck.

[@dx1450]

That was one part which was hard to believe in this movie. They even landed a helicopter on the deck! That wood was in surprisingly good shape for having been underwater for over 70 years! Even if the Titanic hadn't split apart, when it hit the ocean floor it would have done so with the force of a freight train at full speed slamming into a mountain. There would have been likely a lot more damage than what was caused by the iceberg. But, all in all, this was a decent, enjoyable movie. Too bad it flopped when it was released.

[@sabretooth1997]

@@dx1450 Cinematic license. Stuff like that used to bug me, but whatever. We need to enjoy it for what it is, and what it represents. Not to mention that probably 99.9% of what we now know about deepwater shipwrecks was learned in the years since this was created. We know far more about the moon and outer space than we do about the oceans...

[@ItsAllegraDarling]

I remember this movie, I was obsessed with studying the Titanic when I was a child/teenager. This was made before Robert Ballard found the Titanic some 2 miles below the surface of the Atlantic. The toll of physics and mother nature were not something the movies creators considered, or did not wish to consider.

She is too badly damaged now to even attempt to raise. Also, she should be left alone imo, as amazing as it would be to see a ship my country was so proud of be raised, she is a grave for 1500 people as well and needs to be left now
