The Movie Title that I Dislike


I dislike...
The movie title for Titanic for several reasons, too. I feel like when I saw this movie title for the first time, I knew almost too much about what was going to happen in the movie. I felt like this movie title could have been more "secretive" about what would happen in the movie. It's obvious that anyone that knows anything about the history of the Titanic knows that it's going to sink at the end of the movie, but some of the scenes in the movie were fabricated by the director, and could have been left a little more mysterious. I think that spotlight on Rose and Jack is a little less powerful in this movie title, which I wish had been different, since there is a love story behind the making of the film. Rose and Jack should have been highlighted a litle more in the movie title. The movie does have action in it, especially when the ship is going down, but I feel like too much of the ship sinking was shown in the movie title. I would have liked to save the ship-sinking sequence of events entirely for the movie itself.
