There was room for Jack on that door!!
When I was in fifth grade a girl yelled “I’m king of the world” on the playground and someone corrected “queen”
THERE WAS ROOM FOR JACK ON THAT DOOR!!!!
There was but he chose not to get on.
He was too afraid, that it would sink his Love… True Englishman… Kind, magnanimous, honest, truly sincere and naive.
I remember coming back home after watching Titanic. My father said “there’s never been a movie like this and there never will be one again like this”’. Hold’s true to this date. Titanic is truly a movie of a lifetime.
and then he cried like a child
Yes
Even after Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter, and Avengers Endgame that statement still holds true. Because with a movie like endgame it require 22 movies of buildup. Although again Cameron did break his own record with avatar. I was 9 and still remember the hype when that was released. So Titanic and Avatar are the unique mark on cinema history
@@ITSAULGONE Oh man, yeah.
Actually, I guess what both Shakespeare ( Romeo n Juliet) n Cameron did was get a hold of the hearts, break them to pieces, n when one would recover the virtual concussion, say between the lines: viola, how'd you like my trick.
Titanic is a film I can watch a 100 times and never get bored of
yea i know..like freddy got fingered
Facts
We know you were in the film too but you were standing so incredibly still that you became invisible to the naked eye...!!!
My 99th of watching the film!!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️😄
Watching it now again
James Cameron is gonna go down as one of the greatest directors of all time.
is gonna?
Isn’t he one already?
He did with Terminator.
He already is... For a long time LMAO
@Von Charles Yeah except "Piranha II The Spawning" which was pretty bad. But that wasn't all Cameron's fault. But yeah after that he has not made a single bad movie and Aliens is in my opinion one of the best movies ever made. A near flawless action film that managed to top the masterpiece Alien, which shouldn't be possible.
Jim: „Say I am the king of the world!“
Leo: „What?“
😂
Dylan Penev He was too high up to hear him.
It's been over 20 years and Titanic is still the best film I have ever watched. It is such a masterpiece in all kinds of ways and Kate and Leonardo are truly outstanding actors!
About the board, I am really upset and heartbroken everytime Jack dies and it always makes me cry, no matter how many times I've watched it. But James is right, that's just how the film ends, period. It's Titanic after all. Btw, it's not about fitting on the board, it's about their weight, the board would sink if there were both of them.
Lol - try watching the godfather - that’s a masterpiece
Q
@@chucknorris9653 edgy
@@wintergirll that is actually a masterpiece in cinema history
but The Dark Knight was the pinnacle point in cinema history, that can never ever be judged. That outperformed anything yet. Completely blows my mind how Joker was able to pull that intensity and the actor died in real life after the shooting of the movie.. That get's the best of it, right.
Gotta love the fact that James Cameron has a sense of humour. What a cool guy and he is one of the best of all time.
Crazy how all of Hollywood can be summed up into two time periods.
PreTitanic and PostTitanic.
I can say the same for my LIFE! Pretty much sums it up. Such an incredible movie.
Are you high?
MrHEC381991 you do understand that what I said was based on factual analysis and not really a compliment, right?
Titanic changed the way Hollywood moves money, how audiences grew going into the 21st century, and how the international market influenced major US studios.
I don’t think you really understand just how massive the Titanic effect was.
@@Filminformer1984 It was playing for a whole frigging year though!
MrHEC381991 yup, and so did Gone with the Wind & Ben-Hur. Your point?
This is probably the most happiest James Cameron interview I've seen. I like this interviewer guy, he always seems to make people feel really chill and just be themselves.
The last decade or so Jim Cameron seems to have mellowed a bit, he isn’t quite as intense as he used to be.
Titanic is simply one of the greatest movie ever made!!! James Cameron is one of the greatest directors of all time!!
One of the classic movies I've ever seen❤
James Cameron may have two $2 billion dollar movies under his belt, but he still regards himself as an underdog director because he reaches for the impossible when the odds are always stacked against him.
Never bet against Jim Cameron.
... and he knows what he's up against as Avatar for instance is based on his interactions with Amazonian tribes in the 70's fighting for their lives and cultural existence against corp interests.
@@mmsiphonevinyls1027 Because James Cameron doesn't do what James Cameron does for James Cameron. James Cameron does what James Cameron does because James Cameron is James Cameron! - South Park
make that three $2B movies now (Avatar 2 just crossed the 2B line) 🥳 this man is indeed a LEGEND. 🙌🏻
This movie is a perfect combination of Art culture and romantic masterpiece. I felt something break inside me after watching this movie. Great Cameroon
No movie will ever top Titanic, I swear to God.
How about avatar
@@cristophermontayre5770 how about the way of water
@@ghostland8646 Way of water is too good
Most iconic films ever made dammmn
When I was in fifth grade a girl yelled “I’m the king of the world” on the playground and someone corrected “queen”
@@pussthepupanddonkeythedog5135 Some people just don't get it haha
Congrats on making Jim Cameron so chilled and relaxed here. fantastic job!
Titanic’s box office performance is one of the greatest comebacks in human history. Everyone thought the film was gonna failed, and it did the exact opposite.
Him and Christopher Nolan is just a blessing to the film industry like come on man I am glad I was in the same era as when they had released the masterpieces of their lifetimes
Leo is the best cast for Jack Dawson! No lie! I can't imagine someone else making "I'm the king of the world" better than this!
Actually there us plenty......but let's not kick each other's balls over this alright!
James Cameron is known as one of the most influential and extraordinary filmmakers in Hollywood. Titanic was & still is his masterpiece! He dedicates his life of the film and the real Titanic.
He has made all these epic sci/fi blockbusters but this movie is his best creation. What an epic romantic movie made by James Cameron.
What makes the movies so good before is always the perfect acting, writing of the script, realistic production, costumes and to tie a little bow, A MUSIC THEME THAT FITS PERFECT W THE MOVIE.
Ali Plumb! What an amazing interviewer. I've become a huge fan of this guy. Every chat with him is natural. Not a generic reaction but an honest expression. From both side. Love you bro. Keep up the amazing work.
😂😂😂😂 worst interviewer ever
he’s pretty great
I went to see titanic live with an orchestra playing the score a couple years back at a huge arena. It was sold out! ..There is still a lot of love for this movie.
Only who watches Titanic with crying like my comments.
I was so bad.....my tears like a river....😭😍😍😍, My favorite film ever....
I can’t watch the Titanic without getting emotional
Then very angry because I know two people could fit on that door
And then back to crying my eyes out when Rose dies
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
😭😭😢😢😣😣🥺🥺😭😭
They can fit on the door but it sinks when Jack tries, that's why he says 'umm ok Rose you just get on it'
@@jakesampson5629 Thank you
It would be at least 270 lbs on that door. It would sink, dummy.
Ali Plumb is so lucky! A film geek talking about what he loves the most with the people that made them. What a dream!
BBC knew what they were doing when they hired him..
Say what you want about this dude, call him a difficult asshole, whatever...he is a freaking genius who cares an INCREDIBLE amount about the movies he puts out in the world. He takes time and his movies genuinely move me. The man doesn't miss and I think he might be the director I have the most respect for.
True. Kate Winslet even said post-Titanic that she never wanted to work with him again, because, he was so demanding/perfectionist ... and she got really sick one time for having stayed too long in the cold war during filming of the movie. And that she would only reunite if he would pay lots of $$$ to compensate. But there she is with Avatar 2.😄
I literally saw this movie 3 times a week at theater with my best friend! We would take turns buying tickets during our lunch hour because all the shows were still selling out! The only movie I’ve ever seen that many times. I even brought the soundtrack that’s devotion! 🥰
I wish I was you.
Thanks to James Cameron & his team to create such a "EPIC MASTERPIECE"….!!!!
The director of the century💓💓💓💓💓💓💓
He should donate his brain after his death....once in a generation kind of a person and unique personality...a sheer genius!!!!
I can't wait for Alita. It seems something original most stuff these days is either sequels or superhero films.
yeah!!!! waiting alita too
Alita is an adaptation of a manga. Pretty much as original as any superhero film haha
paul oxley it’s original compared to the endless generic comic book action films
THE AMERICAN PATRIOT mangas are comic books though haha
paul oxley But not superhero comic books
One of the benefits of being a filmmaker are those moments where you know something else needs to happen because the scene is requesting it, usually a crescendo moment of action or a line. The reason for this is the scene is a story in and of itself so it must have a finality. Under pressure when you know it must happen, and you find it, you experience such gratification, its something you just can't experience any other way. This happened on Pirates, Depp came up with "Bring me the horizon". The writer was pissed he hadn't thought of it.
The point is she had to keep her core above the water or else freeze. His sacrifice was, indeed, needed not only from a thematic standpoint, but because they did their job and used a float large enough to keep her core above water level but not large enough to do the same for two people.
I first watched Titanic a couple of years later after it came out, I was around 9, and I instantly fell in love with the movie and watched it non-stop for like 2 months straight. To this day it's still one of my very favourites and I've been watching it once a year for what, 20 years now.
Maybe the orchestrial movie soundtrack was crucial for the success of Titanic...? The same with Avatar... James Horners music in James Cameron-movies is sooo important!
But James Horner is not living anymore!
I'm curious how this will work out for the new Avatar movies... I think this is the biggest loss for all the future James Cameron movies. James Horners soundtracks just fitted so well to James Camerons visual language in his movies.
Jim is such a humble guy. With all his talent, ability and track record, he actually thought Titanic was gonna fail?
Everyone did. It cost $200m to make, at that time only one movie had ever cost more than $125m. And it was a three hour long historical epic. I can totally see why people thought it would flop.
Millions of people saw it and some more than once! I sit close to a theatre screen when cinematography is good. When the ship started to crack in half and Rose and Jack fell back with the ass end, I literally felt the falling and I got butterflies. After my first time, I came back a second time with my daughter. Sad circumstance but, good memories! I even own the anniversary edition!! 🌟
He belongs up there with Spielberg and Lucas as the godfathers of modern blockbusters.
deadstar44 He is.
Titanic is still the greatest movie of all time!
He will be known as the ultimate icon. So many memories
So so so down to earth and so cool
Titanic , every second of this movie is made perfectly !! So much work !!
Jim: say I'm the king of the world
Leo: What
Jim: SAY I'm the king of the world
Leo: WHATT
Jim: just sell it!
Leo: WHATTT
Jim: JUST F***ING SELL IT
Leo: ohhhh OK
Every second of this movie is a satisfaction and sorrows

I can't believe he did all thesee
I think the song sold Titanic. Its just not the same without the song.
Same with Halloween (1978)
The titanic suite is one of the finest pieces of film score to date. Rest in peace James Horner.
Same with Star Wars, Jaws, Indiana Jones and many others
Cameron one of the best director ,, awaiting for up coming parts of box office collected movie #AVATAR #SERIES,,. coming to #titanic is an adventerous love thrilling movie..
I was born 2001 and I wish I was that one teen who also felt the Titanic hype all year long and bought tickets every week just to be mesmerized each time. Because it's the best film I have ever seen, I wanted to feel how it was like seeing this movie in the theaters and the people talking about it.
The fact that "Rose" just randomly plays at the end is brilliant and comedic. Brilliantly comedic. Hats off.
Marks my words "No movie in the world can ever match the greatness this movie has!"
Best movie until this days 💙
Titanic is the GOAT of movies.
Titanic is my favorite movie of all time, as well as my favorite James Cameron movie. I’ve been watching it on the regular since early 2010 and each time I feel like I’m watching it for the very first time. For me, the two reasons as to why titanic did so well are simplicity and relatability. The plot is not complex at all, it’s historically rich, and almost everything that every character in every plot line shows in the movie are all things that we want to do in real life.
my favourite film 🙈😫
fav film ever
still MY Love TITANIC
This guy always asks the right questions..
I wish the interviewer would not have interrupted him. Did Leo say '"What?" because he couldn't hear him, or because he didn't like the line? It's rare to see an interviewer who just cannot help interrupting, and I cannot STAND that.
I'm Thanxful Social Media and your Channel via I could Say something to my favourite one..... Thnks a Lot Mr. James Cameroon u gave a new Revolution to film Making.
I'm sure the guy who did this interview is a nice guy, but he represents everything that I HATE about my generation. The sarcasm, the ridiculous "debates" -- There was a time when film was something people studied and took seriously. When film conveyed ideas and emotion. These days it's a thing people do while they're texting, and on Facebook and they only look at the screen to see if they can find a mistake to call out, or form a ridiculous theory in hopes that they can post it and it will go viral.
Jim referencing his own memes is everything!
Love james Cameron def one of the best
Amazing story
Is it me or was Allie super chill in his last interview with Baz. I think you've literally gotten to the point where you've met a sufficient number of celebrities and become totally bulletproof to anxiety.
Jim: “say I’m the king of the world”
Leo: “what”
Jim: “say I’m the king of the world but you gotta sell it”
Leo: “what”
😂😂😂
3:32 lol they were filming with glados from portal video game
i have always liked this interviewer
I love this film! :-)
This was fun.
who is crying of happiness watching this😊
James Cameron is one of mile stone of world cinema...
O cara e bom mesmo com projetos da época
This is actually one of those rare movies that has traveled to each and every remote pocket of the world ♥️🙌 #childhoodnostalgia
James Cameron is a model for every artists out there. His memorable movies have inspired me to push myself to be better and a perfectionist in this world where mediocrity reigns more and more.
Just shut the fuck up..., and stick your "self-optimizing" ideology right up your ass..., you fucking idiot!
"James Cameron has made me a better person... Every day I give my very best on the toilet..., to shitting the best I can! I shit much much better because of James Camerons "perfectionism", which has inspired me most in my life! Now I'm the king of all shitters..." Bla bla bla! Fuck you!
Yes James it's called writteng 😂 love it
😭😭❤️❤️
The interviewer is so nice
Love love love James Cameron. Now there's a guy who I'd like to buy a beer for.
Lol the fact he used that reference with it also being Leonardo is classic
I think secretly Jim resents Titanic as every interview since has had to include the floating board crap.
Either that or whether she dies at the end.
I hope there's a next cameron out there.. I'm hoping that i could be like him
James Cameon is the King of the Unofficial Homage
Swear I thought that was Justin Timberlake interviewing James at first glance😂😆
One of the most influential directors, and you had to ask about the door and dicaprio, and the : king of the world
Just imagine Titanic with.....happy ending. IT WOULD RUIN the magic of this movie. Final scene when Rose joins Jack again. This is a real gem.
I agree with James Cameron there is no debate, it was in the script and it made the ending more powerful.
#Titanic still the best film in the univers James Cameron is great 😍
Interesting shirt, Cameron.
James Cameron your best to titanic
Calling Titanic a little film is disrespect not joke.

Love James Cameron! I agree too, who cares really if Jack could have gotten on the board with Rose and they both lived. Just live in the moment and go with it. He wasn't thinking about himself. He cared WAY more about her living than himself. AND THAT WAS THE POINT! She needed to live not him!
"She needed to live not him...". Please, just shut the fuck up... you little trashtalking idiot!

James Cameron lives in every heart he is the king of the world
Happy Birthday James Cameron. Your a great director. I'm glad u made The Terminator. Terminator 2 Judgement Day. 5 Genisys. 6 Dark Fate. Avatar. True Lies. Alita Battle Angel and Aliens. I love Aliens. That movie remind of Resident Evil and Dead Space. Dead Space, a game, dead alien zombies, Necromorphs. Aliens r the Xenomorphs. Xenomorphs, Necromorphs. Sounds the same. They're the same, but different. Still. I seriously all Terminator and Alien movies. True Lies. Avatar and Alita Battle Angel is awesome. Your work is impressive. Titanic and Avatar is kind of romantic! I never seen Titanic, I was 1 or 2 years old... and maybe I did watch Titanic 12 or 14. Theoretically. That was sad, when Titanic sink. That ship was bigger. Ship of dreams. More like a slay ship. It is. When it was sinking, those people were going crazy. It reminds when I play Dead Space. People killing each other, kill themselves and... u know the rest!!! Is it the same, but it's complicated! Titanic is fucking romantic, love that movie. May the Peace be with u James Cameron.
