is this different than the one that was released with the movie a while back?
if it is different, it is a subtle difference. It is a small enough difference, that I feel like, meh.

Pretty sure I remember the Titanic striking the iceberg first.

1 dimensional plot, 3 dimensional film.

Cameron did a lot of research and hired some prominent marine biologists as advisors, so the Kraken looks a lot more realistic this time around.

The exploding bodies hitting the water was nice.

Apparently, Neil de Grasse Tyson pointed out to James Cameron that one of the night skies was astronomically incorrect, so Cameron fixed it for the new release. Otherwise, it's the same big ball of shit, only puffier.

This video was already posted by schmod in the existing open thread on Titanic. Subject matter's kind of thin for a FPP on its own.

Is this something I'd have to watch the FPP link to understand?

It's ok...the search engine doesn't do a great job of finding duplicate YouTube links. I'm fine with this standing as its own FPP...I got a good chuckle out of it.

Hey, champ! Click the words that are a different color! They take you to a whole new page, a page that is the thing this FPP is about! Hope that helps, sport!
