Film Cameron's Titanic is the best film in the past 25 years
- Thread starter Drawfull
- Start date
And Boogie Nights, which brings up the question, Heather Graham or Kate Winslet for best performances?
This isn't funny. I make worse jokes and puns, but even so.
not unless you’re the husband.
Better movies from 1997.
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
Taste of Cherry
P.s. I actually didn't mind Titanic. It's pure cinema. Total spectacle.

Boogie Nights VS Titanic? Whelp.
Captain Ron is a better boat film.
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.
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.
In the Mood for Love.
Memories of Murder.
Memories of Murder.
Was Speed 2 really 97? Fecking idiots. I've got Speed 4k pre-ordered. Acting masterclass from Bullock incoming.
Princess Mononole is a great shout.
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.
What about Cam'ron's Titanic?
The Room.
You were doing so well
Borat
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...
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.
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.
I had to be dragged to the cinema to watch it. It wa, o, I , ah just got to the end.
I miss good disaster movies.Yeah it sounds a lot like a shit disaster thriller doesn't it

Better boat movies:
Pirates of the Caribbean
Jaws
Under Siege
Water World
Dead Calm
Pirates of the Caribbean
Jaws
Under Siege
Water World
Dead Calm
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.

Gotta be pre 97? It is, by time
As do I but the matchday thread is usually a good replacement.
Fitzcarraldo.
The one with kurt Russell in was better than titanic.
I cried when they couldn't get the boat over the hill
Wasn't the full monty in 1997? That was much better than titanic.
Captain Ron.
It wasn't, and if it was, it wasn't. Personal pref.
Jaws: The Revenge .
Most confusing post ever.
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.
The movie Titanic isn't even the best movie in the movie Titanic. That award goes to the fake reporter on the TV at the start that doesn't come across as a fake reporter. Why do movies and TV shows have that problem whenever they have a scene where there's a reporter or news anchor on screen? They always look so fake. You'd think that if one industry is going to be able to replicate TV broadcasting it would be a movie production company. Well, maybe the best would be a TV broadcasting company. Fox are the worst. They have a dedicated news channel yet all their entertainment shows have really fake news reports in them. I hate foxes too, bunch of bin shagging cnuts. Can't fecking hunt them anymore on my spiked quad bike either since the salad munchers got their way. fecking EU. Glad we dumped them.
Can't remember what the feck this thread is about anymore so I'll just finish off by saying I don't like the Glazers that much.
No poseidon.
I think it's pronounced "Stargate"
