Cameron's ego bigger than iceberg...

Rating: 3/10 (16 April 1999)

I'm truly uplifted to see the floods of Titanic bashing posted here. Renews my faith in humanity.
Here's my two cents.
1. Horrible script- The most telling fact about its unworthiness for "Best Picture" Go look at the Screenplay nominees for the past 50 years...How far back do you have to go to find another "Best Picture" that isn't even nominated for an award that has ten nominees!!!!!
2. Bad Acting- Especially Winslet and DeCaprio in their conversations on deck...insipid dialogue with acting to match.
3. Cheap plot device--The tragedy was truly cheapened by the fictional romance at its center. We know enough about the real people on board for a truly fine drama, yet were stuck with these two self-absorbed losers.
4. Celine Dion- 'Nuff said.
