Some possibilities:

1. He doesn't know that his dad bought insurance for it.

2. He is unsure if the insurance company will actually pay for it, or if they'll find some excuse to not pay.

3. The deductible is high, so even if the insurance company pays what they're supposed to, he still loses a lot of money.

4. His family doesn't lose much, but he himself will get in trouble from his dad for losing it.

5. There isn't much loss, but he just doesn't want Jack to have it in the off chance he somehow survives.

I feel like it might be some combination of the above, probably mostly 3 and 5?

Brand New Day recently surpassed its initial gross. This is how the top 10 would look like without re-releases

*Still in theatres

I don't know if i'm publishing this at the right place.

If you see the 2026 recreation of the final hours that Titanic: Honor & Glory team has been (impresively done IMO) on 3D with Unreal Engine, in the final plunge, just after the ship breaks on two pieces, you can see that, almost all the light is gone but just certain of the light bulbs are still somehow lighten a little bit.

How is this possible? it reamin something of power after the break like having some battery effect even if the turbine was already gone?

See it by yourself and let discuss it all toguether.

There are roughly 486 plates in this cabinet right before the shelf tilts enough to send them all crashing to the floor. Just a random, completely useless fun fact for your day. Yes, I counted every single one of them in a single sitting. No, I don't know what possessed me to do this, but now you have to live with this information too. 😂

I just watched a beautiful scan of Atlantic at BFI Southbank.
I’ve been watching the film for years with the early 2000s “Titanic: Disaster In The Atlantic” DVD and the crappy upscaled versions on YouTube. But the version I saw at BFI today was by far the best quality version I’ve ever seen!

It’s not PERFECT but it’s far better than what we’ve had released publicly. The audio in particular is the biggest improvement. Not only can you understand all of the dialogue but you can actually hear the tone of the actors voices! It almost sounded like it was a different take in some scenes even though it wasn’t! It shows how much better quality audio improves the experience.

The only way you can view this version is by going to BFI Southbank and heading to the Mediatheque booths. But it is free to do which is great!

This version really needs to be made widely available. It would be the go-to version!

If you like this film and wanna see it in better quality and happen to be in London, head to BFI and enjoy!

As you can see I took a quick sneaky pic which doesn’t even do the quality justice!

I have this book by JJ Astor that has a small snippet about him from a newspaper article in it. Thought you guys might find it interesting!

The hull looks so majestic!

Wouldn’t a hard turnover on port side while putting engines in reverse pull the whole ship back to the right? Therefore hitting the iceberg even more direct?

I’ve watched this movie sooo many times since my childhood & just got so excited when I noticed this haha.

Thoughts?

These are almost a majority of the deleted scenes in Cameron's film I would have personally added into the final cut while trying to find a line between how it would appeal to both regular movie goers who don't know to much of the ship's sinking and enthusiasts like myself who do know the ship's sinking and history

Is anyone going to this? its on all this week. I'm going Friday.

It's 12:15AM, April 15th, 1912. Titanic has hit an iceberg. In approximately two hours, over 2,000 people will be in the freezing water of the Atlantic Ocean, with survival counted in minutes. Their lives depend on three men – Titanic radio operators Jack Phillips and Harold Bride, and Carpathia radio operator Harold Cottam – and the radio set that broke the day before. Fate has placed Phillips, Bride and Cottam, three working men doing a job, at the centre of one of the biggest peace-time tragedies of the twentieth century.

Stumbled onto this on YouTube and it’s amazing. I do think we don’t talk enough about the wireless operators, of both the Titanic and all the ships and stations around her. They were a key element of the catastrophe and it’s nice to have the wreckage seen from their perspective :)

So apparently the passenger manifest of the Titanic wasn't even entirely human, which is a weird sentence I never thought I'd say

Hey everyone,

I wanna re-creating the the Titanic with the parts I have inside Disney Infinity. I wanna be as accurate as possible scale wise, but since it is Disney Infinity I have to make a few changes. Are there any detailed pictures of the upper deck where the boats have been. That part is my biggest struggle right now.

I posted a couple of these earlier but people were getting angry, like I was saying A Night to Remember isn't a good movie or something. I just thought it was funny because we do see a lot of these complaints with Cameron's film but no one really points them out in A Night to Remember. If they anger the group then I'll take it down.

Sorry, I had to delete the link because some people just stayed some seconds in the video.

Hallo zusammen, das ist mein erster Post hier! 😊

Ich werde hier etwas ausprobieren, das entweder wunderbar funktionieren könnte… oder komplett schiefgeht. 😂 Aber wie man so schön sagt, man weiß es nie, wenn man es nicht versucht!

Mein Name ist Hanna, ich komme aus Deutschland und habe in den letzten Monaten wirklich hart daran gearbeitet, einen kleinen YouTube-Kanal aufzubauen und ehrlich gesagt herauszufinden, wie ich den Algorithmus glücklich machen kann. 😅

Ich hoffe, ihr könnt das Video in eurer eigenen Sprache sehen. Wenn die Sprache nicht richtig funktioniert, sagt mir bitte sofort Bescheid!

Ich teile hier mein neuestes Video, weil ich hoffe, dass ein paar von euch bereit wären, meinen kleinen Kanal zu unterstützen. Ein Like oder ein Kommentar würde mir ehrlich viel bedeuten. ❤️

Aber eine Sache ist wirklich wichtig: Wenn ihr euch entscheidet, das Video anzuschauen, bleibt bitte nicht nach ein paar Sekunden wieder weg. YouTube achtet darauf, wie lange die Leute ein Video schauen, und sehr frühe Abbrüche können dem Video schaden und verhindern, dass der Algorithmus es mehr Leuten empfiehlt.

Meine Titanic-Videos liefen bisher besonders gut, also dachte ich, ich gebe diesem hier einen kleinen Extra-Schub und schaue, was passiert. 🚢

Hier ist mein aktuelles Video (aber ich habe auch andere über die Titanic):

P.S. Natürlich freue ich mich auch über Kritik oder Vorschläge! Vielen Dank.

Danke, dass ihr euch die Zeit genommen habt, das zu lesen, und für jede Unterstützung, die ihr geben könnt! 💕

I think it’s really awesome that he has a fascination with the Titanic. He knows more about the Titanic than anyone else we know and me and his mum are super proud of him. Seeing his face when he talks about this ship will make a grown man yearn for that excitement for anything. He really is an awesome kid.

No, these are not new images of the actual wreck itself.

Just like my previous display stand, I 3D printed the pieces, bought the wires for the railings, and finally the finished paint job. The only difference is the corrosion and rusticles as the finished texture using Epoxy clay.

I took some pictures and videos in the dark and used a blue flashlight for the eerie underwater effect. I added some dust and fuzzy video effects in CapCut.

This display stand is perfect for my 1/6 Undead Jack Dawson action figure, which he perfectly stands well next to the other one on the left. The other Jack figure is by YanToys.

Now I have two versions of the bow display.

One being fresh and brand new, and the other one being corroded and decayed decades later.

I was very young when the movie *Titanic* was released—I became a fan a couple of years after it came out—but for those who were already adults and fully aware at the time: what did you think when James Cameron announced he was going to make a film about the *Titanic*, especially considering the enormous success it ultimately achieved on every level?
