And Boogie Nights, which brings up the question, Heather Graham or Kate Winslet for best performances?A quick glance at movies from that year, the following are all better:
Good Will Hunting
LA Confidential
The Devils Advocate
Grosse Point Blank
Jackie Brown
And of course Con Air.
Edit: and Men In Black.
This isn't funny. I make worse jokes and puns, but even so.Titanic had stern competition in the category of 'best boat-based films of 1997' in the shape of Speed 2.
not unless you’re the husband.This is a bad thing?
Both are fancied by milfs. If you add them to cart together on Amazon, your order arrives with a wine stopper and menopause.
Captain Ron is a better boat film.C S B
I'll be a shallow fecker and bin off the RoW stuff, but none of your Hollywood ones are better for me. Crash is close, but having watched it again recently, it's really just tittilation dressed as cinema - which was the only reason it gained traction in the first place.Better movies from 1997 alone.
Hollywood:
Jackie Brown
Boogie Nights
Lost Highway
Hard Eight
Crash
The 5th Element
The Ice Storm
Rest of World:
The Sweet Hereafter
Princess Mononoke
Cure
Hana-bi
Perfect Blue
Maborosi
Happy Together
Funny Games
Live Flesh
Taste of Cherry
If you hadn't made your outlandish claim about the joint best boat-based film of 1997 being the best film of the last quarter of a century, that criticism would genuinely sting.This isn't funny. I make worse jokes and puns, but even so.
Was Speed 2 really 97? Fecking idiots. I've got Speed 4k pre-ordered. Acting masterclass from Bullock incoming.If you hadn't made your outlandish claim about the joint best boat-based film of 1997 being the best film of the last quarter of a century, that criticism would genuinely sting.
Princess Mononole is a great shout.Better movies from 1997.

P.s. I actually didn't mind Titanic. It's pure cinema. Total spectacle.
Have you seen The Ice Storm? I only remembered it because I wanted to sound smart so went on Wiki to remember what came out in '97.I'll be a shallow fecker and bin off the RoW stuff, but none of your Hollywood ones are better for me. Crash is close, but having watched it again recently, it's really just tittilation dressed as cinema - which was the only reason it gained traction in the first place.
You were doing so wellThe Room.
I assumed with such a generic name that I hadn't. Now I'm intrigued. It's not on iTunes either, but I can pay a fortune for a disc. I shall do so. If It's not better than the titular movie though...Have you seen The Ice Storm? I only remembered it because I wanted to sound smart so went on Wiki to remember what came out in '97.
It's a really good movie that I randomly found on Prime one day. Would highly recommend to anybody reading this thread.
Edit - Don't think it's available on there anymore.
If we're rating things based on watching it repeatedly then the greatest song of the last 25 years would be Baby fecking Shark.The Game is a fecking terrible shout. AF1 and TLW aren't far behind, though I love both. I like The Game, but it's not a watch repeatedly.
Yeah it sounds a lot like a shit disaster thriller doesn't itI assumed with such a generic name that I hadn't. Now I'm intrigued. It's not on iTunes either, but I can pay a fortune for a disc. I shall do so. If It's not better than the titular movie though...
I had to be dragged to the cinema to watch it. It wa, o, I , ah just got to the end.If we're rating things based on watching it repeatedly then the greatest song of the last 25 years would be Baby fecking Shark.
Titanic is like instant noodles. You can just plow through them and not vomit, but it's not the same as a decent steak dinner. The steak dinner in this example being, quite clearly, 1997s Mouse Hunt.
I miss good disaster movies.Yeah it sounds a lot like a shit disaster thriller doesn't it
I wouldn't pay for it as it's definitely a watch once and never watch again sort of movie.
Without looking, 4 of those are pre 97 and the Depp films are shit. As if this is what we're using to hit on Titanic. Blimey.Better boat movies:
Pirates of the Caribbean
Jaws
Under Siege
Water World
Dead Calm

Gotta be pre 97? It is, by timeCape Fear too
As do I but the matchday thread is usually a good replacement.I miss good disaster movies.

I cried when they couldn't get the boat over the hillFitzcarraldo.
Captain Ron.The one with kurt Russell in was better than titanic.
It wasn't, and if it was, it wasn't. Personal pref.Wasn't the full monty in 1997? That was much better than titanic.
Most confusing post ever.It wasn't, and if it was, it wasn't. Personal pref.
When did we move from "best film of the last 25 years" to "Titanic is the best Titanic film released in 1997". You're moving the goalposts more than a football pitch built on quicksand.Without looking, 4 of those are pre 97 and the Depp films are shit. As if this is what we're using to hit on Titanic. Blimey.
Maybe dead calm is after, but it's still shit.
No poseidon.Captain Ron.
I think it's pronounced "Stargate"No poseidon.
