Oh man, wish this didn't have the alternate ending.

This is absolute blessing, thank you so much for this! I did try doing this myself about a year ago, but I never finished. Though I've gotta ask, which scenes didn't you include? As the deleted scenes featurette on the BluRay totals 57 minuets, and the movie is 3 hours 14, this isn't a complete cut of it all. By the looks of things. It should be closer to 4 hours 10.

Also, I'd hoped you would remove the Bruce Ismay slander, and it's bit odd to show a scene at sunset, and then cut to a daylight sequence. Anyways I'm nitpicking, but it's just the more that I learn about Mr Ismay, the more of an aversion I have to him being portrayed as an arrogant boss. Yes, he could be sensitive and standoffish, and his sheer height commanded respect to his presence, but he would never demand his ship go faster. To say that he did is literally a lie.

I plan on watching this right up until before the alternate ending begins

Thank you very much!

Hopefully we get the alternate ending

"A caterpillar turns into a butterfly. If a mindless insect can do it, why can't I? Was it any more unimaginable than the sinking of the Titanic?"

I feel like them sinking the titanic should be equally met with us going to Uranus. Cosmic order and all that jazz.

Rose literally Diamond handed that shit.

Is it just me but doesn't it to look like he just turned into an Anakin skywalker to throw her off the boat. That's something he would do.

They on a small ass boat bruh

Now he gets the floating door all to himself

Jack of Wallstreet

Twas her 25th birthday.

After having viewed the deleted scenes the only one I think must be put back in is the one where Jack and Rose are in the First Class area singing "Come, Josephine, in my flying machine". That brief scene makes the ending scenes so much more poignant

The movie would be too long and the pacing would be awful.

James Cameron didn't delete those scenes because he's an asshole. He deleted those scenes so that the movie would have better pacing.

I would add back in:

• Ida refusing to leave 🥹
• Colonel Astor looking for his dog / saying bye to Guggenheim
• Cora Dying
• Finding Fang Lang in the water

Wasn't there a fan edit making the rounds on the high seas sites in the 10's that added everything? I remember hearing about it but never had occasion to add it to me booty so idk what the quality was like.

But I swear I remember hearing about it.

Honestly, I think about this somewhat frequently because while I dont think all the deleted scenes should be put back in, I do think there are some that should be.

My pick is the scene where Cal says "Ill still be the first." Its really the only scene that shows the relationship between Rose and Trudy and also gives some more background on why Rose feels trapped. I also pick the scene where Rose trashes her room because without it, the transition from her sitting at the dining room table to running down the deck is very jarring. This makes more sense why she has the impulse to jump off the stern.

A few more: I've gone back and forth with this one, but I ultimately think the scene with Jack and Rose on the deck after the party should have been kept in. It gives a little more to their developing relationship and Rose saying "something I can't have" is powerful. I would also say that I think the short clip of Molly Brown taking over the oar in the boat would be a nice addition to show her strength and heroism. Finally, the extended Carpathia sequence for sure. It definitely provided better closure for the disaster. Oh, I almost forgot, but the Chinese man being rescued. Rose says "six were saved from the water" and it provides some more context.

I certainly don’t “hate” it (why people bring hate/love into subjective opinion generally confuses me) but I do think that the theatrical ending is better, for the following reasons:

• It brings a solemn end to the film that is more appropriate when discussing a tragedy where 1,517 people lost their lives. The original ending with many of the wraparound characters on deck feels too big, for lack of a better term.
• It’s also a largely unnecessary summation of the thesis statements of the film. Rose’s comments about treasure, life, and making it count have already been stated multiple times, and in better ways.
• It show a Rose that is still wily and intelligent, even at the end of her life. That she was able to get through life without using the vast wealth at her fingertips is great, but that she’s able to then return it to the wreck without anyone knowing? (which in my eyes was her reason to return in the first place) - great characterization.

WHAT IS THE FUCKING ALTERNATE ENDING

It doesn't have the same emotional payoff as Rose dropping the necklace to the ocean uninterrupted. She at least gets to have a proper goodbye and satisfying ending.

The original ending would be too divisive in my opinion. Test screenings appear to prove it.

But why? The original is terrible

Because it's fucking hilarious. "That really sucks lady"

James Cameron loves submarines. Simple as. It's not a terrible framing device either. Seeing the sunken ship beforehand lends a sense of foreboding that would be less evocative with the simple vague knowledge of the event.

Say what you will of the corny love story, it is super eerie to look at the ruins of the ship and then glimpse back through time at the last days before it met its fate.

You do realize Rose was never in a submarine, right??? The submersible they were sending down to the Titanic was unmanned. She was on a ship on the surface.

Considering how visiting the Titanic in a manned sub has turned out in real life, it seems important that you realize they didn’t shove a 90 year old lady into a submarine and take her to the ocean floor.

She did move on though, she lived her life. But she’s telling them the story of her time on the ship, which centers Jack.

Uhhh do you forget that the ocean documentary is also how the movie starts? It's called a framing device dude.

Also 90 year old Richard Attenborough recently took a submarine trip to like challenger deep or some shit

Also also, 95% of the movie is a romantic cheesy fever dream? DID YOU BLINK AND MISS THE LITTLE SUBPLOT ABOUT THE HUBRIS OF MAN AND THE UNSTOPPABLE FORCES OF NATURE?!

The resolution of Rose’s storyline is that she finally got closure by returning the necklace to where it belonged, instead of continuing to drag it through her life.

Spoilers!

Actuallyyyy the sinking of titanic was a homage to James Cameron.

spoilers!

Holy shit, the movie is about THAT Titanic??

Nah. As nice as it would have been for them to live happily ever after, the true visceral impact of the Titanic tragedy is not felt if Jack lives

Movie really doesn't work unless Jack dies

I actually needed this after rewatching last night, so thank you. The older I get the more I don't need characters to die to appreciate a tragedy.

No.

I got the clip from here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=27lsG3aWDMY

The fact that she closed her eyes to do it too!! Tragic every time🤣

“That’s what you get for putting your hands on my fiancé”

Honestly, it's better then dying from hypothermia.

If you close your eyes when you swing an axe, you’re gonna have a bad time.
