Movies should not be made for critics and the Academy should recognize this. The box office success isn't due to millions of people blindly paying good money to see a film that they already know will end with the ship sinking. They are paying to see quality work. Those numbers, as of right now Titanic is 4th on the ALL TIME top grossing domestic list, show that this film should be the movie of the year. That movie sucked.
Art responds to society and also affects society.
The ending of the movie has caused many people to re-examine their lives and where they put their priorities. If you didn't cry at the end of this movie, I would ask myself if you have a heart. The Academy of Arts and Sciences should keep that in mind. They owe it to movie viewers around the nation and world. 6 p.m. Jammin' Janet She's back with her hot new release, All for You .
