"I don't know why you call me out in front of all these people!"
"They know."
Priceless! And true!
😂
“Girl, the last thing we need right now is more water. “ I lost it. 😂
Hubbin' is the best 🤣
🤣🤣🤣
Lol true. But made me laugh.
You WOULD have cried if you were watching this in a quiet theater unable to talk yourself through some of the more somber scenes. This is something a lot of reacters don't realize.
Agreed. Way too much talking.
I was on a date when I first saw this movie and I will have to admit for an 18-year-old girl I was a little sheltered and I did not know that much of the history of the titanic. I knew it sunk but I didn't really know that that many people died. And I was not prepared for how much I was going to be full on sobbing at the end.(the Injustice of the third class people and the families and the children got me the most.) Like ugly crying still when we got to the car LOL it was bad.
@@crystalscolza1663 It was still more likely for a 3rd class woman to survive than for a 1st class man. It was a class issue, but much more it was a gender issue.
@@martinezgerard This reaction is far worse off: ruclips.net/video/wk_CurRcWfA/видео.html&lc=Ugys25_fgc7ihfZLhs54AaABAg&ab_channel=DanzW0rld. Very insensitive, actually.
yeah, same...if i watch ovies with someone else, best buddy.. i never cry. if i am sitting here all on my own, i 100% cry at many movies (not titanic ^^)
When Rose said: "I'll never let go. I promise." She meant that she would never let go of the promise she made to Jack earlier. That she would survive, keep on living & would never give up, no matter how hopeless a situation may be. People often get confused by that scene, because apparently they completely forgot about the conversation between Jack & Rose that occurred not 5 minutes earlier.
yea everyone understands what Rose meant
I think she was joking. It was a sarcastic response. LOL 😂
90% always assumed that she lied by letting go of Jack. Even Kate Winslet joked about it.
I cried at the point when they showed the mom tucking her babies into bed before they died.
"Was that necessary James Cameron?" It kind of was. These were not easy deaths.
I cry every time i see that final scene where Rose goes back to Titanic and is reunited with Jack. If you look closely, you see that everyone is gathered in the hall- regardless of class. First class and third together. And the captain is the last to clap as it is tradition.
I saw this in theaters and first time I saw it, I did recognize that all the people there in that scene were people who died on the ship since you saw Jack's pals, the musicians, Mister Andrews, Rose's maid, the father and daughter, and the captain (to name a few besides Jack), so I can see why people have interpret that Rose died that night. For me I think it's too open ended to tell for sure.
@@Zodia195 she died. that's exactly what happened. How could anyone think anything else ?
What did Blake mean that he didn't understand the ending and then he never explained himself? Anyone?
@@Spottedfeather Boom. Mic drop. Yes.
We all do sweet... We all do
15:24 yes, it was necessary. This scene shows us that when people fell they hit various parts of the ship before falling into the water. So it was necessary.
I worked in a theater when this movie came out. We had to crank the AC as hard as it would go from the minute the ship hit the iceberg, so by the time Jack and Rose were in the water, the theater was an icebox...then we turned the heat back on :)
THAT WOULD BE SOOOOO COOL!!
I'm 13 and I'm so disappointed that I wasn't alive when the movie came out. It's the best movie EVER
lol you made it a semi 4DX experience back in 1997
You should've clogged the drains and opened all the taps too
@@pistonburner6448 🤣
Causing numerous people catch cold? Well that's brilliant sir 😂
Us:
Ashleigh: Ugh he's dead! Disgusting!
I didn't cry when Jack died. I cried hardest with the mom and her kids and the older couple. I think by the time you get to Jack, at least for me, I was already in tears.
@@heatherstephenson1497 It was the old couple that did it for me
I feel like she would’ve gotten into the movie more if she was watching it alone. She kept herself detached emotionally so she wouldn’t react too strongly, since he had seen the movie already and talked it up.
@@heatherstephenson1497 same
@@anti0918 agreed
Blake is petrified everyone is going to call him Hubbin the rest of his life.
His coworkers must be merciless ...
@@Panzer4F2 Relentless. I admit I would have fun with it if I worked with him.
I didn’t know that was his name
Hubbin ain't Hubbin none of that
Why even get married?
I love *all* of Ashleigh's reaction videos but I have to say, I wasn't mad keen on this one. Disappointed that she didn't seem as invested in the emotional/tragic heft of the movie and made light of it so much. It came off as kinda obnoxious?! So glad Blake gets it though, and I guess I had to disagree with Ashleigh sooner or later!
There's been plenty of her reactions I haven't been keen on. She doesn't seem to get character development and good storytelling alot of the time.
@@wantutosigh1117 I mean she's more of an amateur. Brandon Likes Movies is much better since he actually goes into stuff like storytelling, character development and even cinematography.
fair enough, personally Id rather Ashleigh just have an honest reaction than pretend though, I have watched this film before with friends and we were just making jokes through it, not everyone will have same reaction etc
ruclips.net/video/wk_CurRcWfA/видео.html&lc=Ugys25_fgc7ihfZLhs54AaABAg&ab_channel=DanzW0rld This person puts every other Titanic reaction to pristine status, in comparison.
I agree. I'm a huge fan of Ashleigh and her reaction videos, but disappointed with this one. Does she not realize that this is based on a tragedy that happened and many people lost their lives?? The second half of this movie kills me, every single time. And I've watched this one 20 times, maybe more.
It's interesting how you think certain scenes are very long when they're really only a few minutes (true interest, I'm not being passive aggressive). I think you're very accustomed to today's movies that have very little setup and very fast cutting between shots and scenes. I can see how you feel that all the submarine stuff in the beginning takes forever, but really we FLASH BACK to 1912 around the 20-minute mark. Also, with the dancing, you need to establish some sort of non-formal interaction between Jack and Rose to help build the romance. Without that dancing stuff, they've only shared a near-suicide experience and dinner together....not very romantic. It's important for a story to take its time establishing characters and conflict in order to develop a meaningful and emotional story. I only wish today's movies would still follow that structure.
Agreed. The "dancing" scene is incredibly important to the character development and story.
yeah, people seem to have short attention span these days sadly.
@@neogeo1670 Exactly, like when they say children have short attention spans, so you have to make activities for kids that are short, and then transition them to something else. That's all their attention spans will allow. Well, here we are today with GROWN ASS ADULTS, and apparently, we have to treat them the same way.
Today the movies made are having to be geared towards people who can't sit and have a conversation without their phones to turn to every few minutes. People who can't go to the store without their bluetooth on and chatting on the phone with someone while shopping. People can't interact without distraction. So true story building is often lost on them. Probably letting small children with developing brains be distracted by tv, phones, computers 24/7 is damaging the way those brains process information.
@@FallingGalaxy yeah, it's a sad trend for sure... Addiction to internet is widespread and is gonna be a serious problem of people don't regulate themselves
I think your emotional response was muted because your husband was there. The same thing happens to me if I watch a movie at home with my friends --- we have a tendency to poke fun at it, point out faults with it, laugh together, etc. instead of taking it seriously like we would if we watched it alone.
Well all of that yes...plus the fact that Ashleigh comments continuously throughout each of these film reactions. Not a bad thing...I enjoy the heck out of her laughs and facial expressions and all...but, she distracts herself from things in the films when she comments, because she doesn't pause the film and then chat, she just barrels thru.
@Necramonium It's not that she was shy with her husband, it's more that with the husband there she's not totally immersed in the movie as she would be if she was watching alone.
"I'm Blake by the way, My Hubbin is not my name" I laughed so hard at that.
Also, I saw this in the theater and hated this movie and still do. The story Blake said about the Strauses is true and had this movie been more of a true story and even pointed more about their story instead of the fake love story, I think it would have been better. I feel if it was more of a true story instead of a fiction romance/drama set in a real historical event, it would have been better. Just me.
@@jeknechtphotography7106 👍
@@jeknechtphotography7106 The romance was there to get the audience invested in the passengers. To feel sad when they started to suffer. Without that you're watching a documentary and aren't as invested emotionally.
Benja Lucian
Think Lone Survivor, Patriot Day, 13 Hours, Zero Dark Thirty, Blackhawk Down, Saving Private Ryan (which besides D Day, is a fictional movie based on the stories of actual soldiers. Really Good movies telling the stories based on actual events based on news reports and witness accounts.
@@jeknechtphotography7106 - and each one still had character development enough for the audience to care about the characters in each one.
I feel like Ashley just misses the point of story building in general.
Agreed
Well said but not surprising she would be that way
She doesn't seem to follow character progression either. Just very surface level.
I seriously question her character.
@@igotajarofdirt.4479 😂😂😂😂
just how ON EARTH are you so glib about the most impactful scenes in Titanic, but you were literally in tears about Planes, Trains, and Automobiles? MAKE IT MAKE SENSE!
Yeah, that kinda turned me off to her reactions. I think this might be my last one. I've been on a sinking boat and it's terrifying.
Well, not everything is for everyone. ''Titanic'' is one of my favorite movies of all time, but it hit me at just the right age, in just the right circumstances. I was 16 when I first watched it in the theatre and a hopeless romantic. I was also obsessed with the Titanic (as I still am) and there was no internet back then, so my only "fix" was the occasional movie. Watching all these first time movie reactions on RUclips inspired me to watch some movie classics I hadn't seen myself and... let's just say it didn't go as expected! I mean, I laughed my ass off with "The Shining" and I got so bored with "The Godfather," I couldn't even finish the damn movie! lol
@@hannahpumpkins4359 ruclips.net/video/wk_CurRcWfA/видео.html&lc=Ugys25_fgc7ihfZLhs54AaABAg&ab_channel=DanzW0rld This reaction is completely subpar in comparison.
Because shes a Millennial
Because planes trains and automobiles is a good movie
"The diamond is so important he should've kept it/sell it"
There's an alternate version of the scene where her granddaughter and Bill Paxton's character catch her at the rail and shows them the diamond. She explains:
"The hardest part about being so poor was being so rich. Every time I thought of selling, I thought d Cal, and somehow i made it without his help."
Basically, never selling for money was a continuous F-You to Cal and she returned it to where felt it belonged, with the life she left behind on the doomed ship.
Also, look up the deleted material, some time. There's almost an hour's worth of scenes that were cut from the film.
Thank you! I always wondered about that, I mean it was Cal’s necklace, it’s not like Jack would have given a damn if she sold it. That makes much more sense
I think there were legalities too. Cal would have filed an insurance claim for its loss and the company would have paid out. Had Rose gone public and tried to sell it, the insurance company would have swooped in and claimed it as rightful owners. The only way she could have sold it and gotten any money without legal problems was to have torn the necklace apart and sold the smaller diamonds loose, and the metal per weight. She could do nothing with the big blue diamond except try to find someone to cut it down, but it would have been very difficult for her.
ruclips.net/video/O3JSzmJaP4c/видео.html
Good point. I feel she also dropped it there so the crew could find it someday to complete their treasure hunt
I know it makes sense, but dang, that heart pendant alone was the size of the Hope diamond. 💎💎
13:59 The old couple is even more sad when you know they were based on the true story of the Ida and Isidor Straus. James Cameron had scenes filmed that told their story more, but they didn't make the final cut. They were offered seats in the lifeboats. Isidor refused because there were women and children still aboard, and Ida refused to leave him. They put their maid in the lifeboat instead, and even apparently wrapped her in one of Ida's fur coats to keep her warm~~~
I feel bad for the portrayal of a lot of the officers; many of them were great and brave men that behaved sometimes drastically different than how Cameron had them written. Cameron later apologized and admitted he regretted some of the choices, like the shooting of the friend by the officer.
I am so glad you said this!!!!!!! I was going to say it, but hoped someone else had mentioned it.
the couple that was laying side by side when you said "oh stop".... i heard at one point that they orginally owned a store called Macy's
And don't forget the unfair portrayal of Mr. Ismay.
It's always tricky when making up a story around a historical event.
the way he portrayed the boat going down and breaking up was also debunked around 2012, boat didn't break in half until half way down.
@@roddo1955 May I ask, how was his portrayal unfair? He did indeed tell the captain to go faster and that lead to the ship's sinking. It was his fault, really.
I saw this movie WEEKS after it came out and it was a packed house. When Jack turned around on the stairs at the end I sobbed loudly. LOL
Yep, lots of people want to back to see it multiple times. Same happened with Star Wars, but by the time Titanic was out it was quite unusual because by then there was home video.
Something to keep in mind is that although this was a movie, it depicts a real tragedy where real people really lost their lives.
That didn't seem to move her at all. It was almost like she thought it was funny. SMH...
@@hannahpumpkins4359 it is funny
Yeah but a boring movie
@@hannahpumpkins4359 it is kinda funny though
@@Readyforit7723 please tell me u r joking depressed cheese, i guess u are a depressed cheese after all
In reality, Molly Brown commandeered the lifeboat she was on and went back for survivors, which is why she was called “The Unsinkable Molly Brown." I don't know why this movie had her backing down from that crew member, because that's not what happened in real life. She took over the boat.
changed it for the dramatics...
there is no “in reality” claim to make about the actions of someone who has become a folk legend passed down as a story that only had a few witnesses who died many many many years ago - there are many versions of this tale and they all contradict.
I will say I love the Debbie Reynolds movie version of the musical UMB and the short snip they devote to her time on the titanic being a bad ass.
Why? Have we not figured out yet that Cameron wanted to make the entire ship company Evil and Rich?
She also historically went by Maggie Brown not Molly
There was a television movie version of the Titanic that came out just a few years earlier than this with Tim Curry, and Molly Brown is depicted commandeering the boat in that movie, so I don't know why anyone thinks it couldn't be done.
I'm a grown ass man and I was more emotional at the end of this movie than Ashleigh was. LOL
MANY TIMES!
I'm really disappointed in this reaction. Sometimes it's okay to just shut up and watch the movie.
She hasn't really evolved much when it comes to movies with deeper story telling and character development.
I'm surprised at this reaction to Titanic. It's a powerful and an incredibly emotional movie. This tragedy happened in real life to real people. Maybe watching it without talking non stop through the entire movie and imagine putting yourself in the passenger's shoes will give you a different perspective. I've seen better reactions to this movie, this one is disappointing.
ruclips.net/video/wk_CurRcWfA/видео.html&lc=Ugys25_fgc7ihfZLhs54AaABAg&ab_channel=DanzW0rld Most disappointing reaction I've ever seen.
I love Blake's face at 18:57 like "who the fuck did I marry" 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
She's gonna leave him for Steve Martin and he's gonna leave her for Kate Winslet
I can’t take my eyes off of Hubbin’s face. His expressions are GOLD. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Their chemistry is hilarious...
@Otto Fetting What is wrong with you?
@Otto Fetting LOL what the fuck, dude? Seek help.
@Otto Fetting that is a horrible thing to say! Sometimes thoughts are better left unspoken
@Otto Fetting Not all opinions need to shared . . .
I know why you didn't cry: because Hubbin was there and that takes you "out" of the movie somewhat. Had you been watching this movie alone . . . . waterworks for sure!!
I agree that Hubbin being there completely distracted her.
Such a awful and obnoxious reaction to a girl about a real tragedy that took many lives, I can understand if this isn't your thing, as tastes are subjective, but to basically make a mockery of this film is awful,
So, question that’s totally nothing to do with the movie.
If you gave her loads of catnip, would she become Baked Beans?
Lmao! Cuuuuute!!
I wish Beans could have kittens. Just so we could call them "beanie babies."
haahahhahah #yesplease
They could get a pet pig and call the two "Pork and Beans".
Depends. If you gave Beans loads of catnip she'd become Baked Beans. Give anyone enough LSD and anyone can become baked beans.
Couple things:
Almost all of those micro-scenes of the sinking are based on actual accounts. Isabelle and Ida Strauss (yes, those Strauss) are the old couple that went to bed together and died together. Charles Lightroller, the man who brandished an unarmed weapon to keep order on the deck, was very much a hero. He also is said to have organized ensuring boats stopped leaving half or partially full. He stayed on the ship until it sank and jumped from the stern. Ended up sucked into one of the funnels as it flooded and was only spared when a boiler exploded and the pressure shot him to the surface.
He was later a hero in WWI and WWII. The guy lived an absolutely remarkable life.
And here I am just eating Cheetos.
*Isidor and Ida Strauss 😊
@@Lollyta1298 Thank you!
@@tjolsonmcse 🤣
*Ida and Isidor Straus.
Charles Lightoller was responsible for most boats going half full. He interpreted captain's commands as "Women and children ONLY" while Murdoch interpreted as "Women and children FIRST".
Murdoch was a hero that night. He was wrongly portrayed in the movie. He was responsible for saving many lives as much as 300+. He let men in if women and children weren't left. He find lifeboats as much as he could.
I normally love Ashleigh's reactions... But I actually didn't like she didn't respect some really crude scenes... I mean, dude, they're representing real people with real lives that were severed by tragedy and she mocked about them like if she was watching Airplane allover again... You need to show some respect for their deaths instead of mocking them all the time...
Yeah this is a problem of hers. Silly comedies are mostly what she understands.
same here, i've enjoyed alot of her reactions. And this just left a wierd feeling. its a powerful movie and she just glances over everything like nothing.
It's a fucking movie.
ruclips.net/video/wk_CurRcWfA/видео.html&lc=Ugys25_fgc7ihfZLhs54AaABAg&ab_channel=DanzW0rld Wait until you see this. The talentless hack in this video had the asinine nerve to blame Jack for Fabrizio's death. Unbelievable.
@@asperhes A movie based on one of the worst tragedies in modern history. You don't seem to be empathic enough to understand the power of the movie and the lives of the real life people that were portrayed in this movie.
I think there's a good chance that you would have cried if you had been watching by yourself.
Whether you are watching by yourself or with someone else can have a big effect on your headspace.
There is a heroic story of the firemen of the Titanic trying to pump water out of the ship. Firemen being the stokers and people working in the boiler rooms, as well as other crewmen. It was already accepted that the ship was going to sink so they risked their lives primarily to keep her afloat as long as possible. Similar to the wireless operators, and those working in the breaker room, all doing their parts literally till the end.
Some did abandon their posts when the rooms flooded. A bunch of stokers made it to the boat deck and warned people.
The biggest regret Cameron had about making TITANIC was depicting Officer Murdoch commiting suicide: "While he did die, we can't historically prove he killed himself, so that was largely screenwriter's license, but I should've been more considerate to his descendants and made it a more random character."
Cameron is too hard on himself because he is a perfectionist. The officer realized that he had crossed over into becoming a monster. He was overwhelmed with guilt and punished himself, paying for the sin of murder. His suicide was a strong show of character and morality.
Very true there is word an officer did commit suicide but it was never really confirmed who it was. If I did the movie I would have just shown a officer from the back shoot himself and left it at that. I know First Officer William Murdoch's relatives were not very happy with that particular scene.
@@worstcaseofcrabsever5510 his relatives were disgusted by the portrayal.
@@worstcaseofcrabsever5510 Strange choice of words since suicide is widely regarded as being immoral and showing weakness, especially back then amongst the 'ligious folk.
Movie audiences have also always been hard on Murdoch because they perceive him to accept Cal's bribe since he doesn't voice any protest, but that was never Cameron's intention. If you pay attention to Murdoch's face you can see the look of disgust he gives Cal after he slips the money into his pocket. He's just busy helping people to the lifeboats and doesn't have time to deal with Cal's bullshit, which is why he doesn't say anything one way or the other. Still, because he doesn't say anything to refute Cal a lot of people seem to think that he accepted the bribe, and Cameron has since voiced regret that he didn't convey Murdoch's refusal to acknowledge the bribe more clearly.
This is so much like my wife and I.
ME: “This part is so powerful don’t you think?”
MY WIFE: “That guy’s weird looking.”
ME: *sigh*
My sister and I:
ME: Here comes the big scene.
SISTER: I have to go to the bathroom. Will I miss anything?
ME: Just a famous historic battle people have been talking about and strategically trying to emulate for years.
At least your wife stays awake 😂
Seeing this film on the big screen was an experience -- you really felt like you were on the Titanic and experienced the sheer terror as it sank. Watching it on the small screen doesn't compare.
There is no Blake, only hubbin.
I see what you did there....
Hubbland.
What a lovely singing voice he must have
And I love that he calls her ‘wifen’ too 😂😍
There is no Dana, only Zuul! :P
I absolutely LOVE Blake’s facial expressions when you say certain things. Those eyes say it all
When she said 'now are you gonna kill yourself for real' I had the same expression on my face that Blake did.
The eyes say, how the hell did I get wrangled up with someone with the mentality of a 9 year old and the depth of a puddle.
@@sabrinashelton1997 😅
"Certain" aka dumb.
I grew up before the Titanic was found, so the mystical aspects of the ship not found and the lore surrounding the event was almost a tangible feeling. When this movie came out, the lengthy visuals underwater and the special effects of the ship leaving the Harbor were of great interest. The impressive special effects my seem typical by todays standards, but it was truly jaw dropping in '97 so the length was not an issue.
This movie is so heartbreaking to watch just knowing that people really went through this and how scary it must have been. The movie does a real amazing job at telling the story besides the love story it is true. I am a bit surprised by your reaction
OMG, how can Blake say he isn't funny. The look on his face when you gave Titanic, the boat, 0 out of 5 stars was hilarious.
There was a boat called the titanic too? I thought it was a ship called titanic in this movie?
Don’t worry, I get what you mean and I’m just teasing, not being “that guy”
My cousin hit me with a real pearler the other day though
A trio of those “what do you get when you cross x with y” type jokes
Two were well known, only for the third to be “what do you get when you cross the Atlantic with the titanic?”
“About halfway”
Jack tells rose “you’re going to die an old lady asleep in her bed” …. She’s not sleeping at the end of the movie, she died and was back on the boat with Jack.
That’s how I’ve always interpreted it as well, but people who think she’s just dreaming are equally valid, since there’s really no concrete evidence for either one.
So, the necklace was an actual talisman that kept her alive until she tossed it...like Bilbo's/Frodo's ring.
Sometimes…you just talk too much. You miss actual emotional content.
"Is tHaT NeCcessAry?"
Yes. It really made it land home.
When you share a movie that you really care about with someone and they just aren't invested in it. Been there.
Every movie I’ve ever made my wife watch with me. It’s so disappointing. every. single. time.
I was sad at the point that she didn’t notice that Hubbin was invested in the romance and Jack dying (like most people), but instead she was like ,yo, let go the frozen corpse’s hands already… “disgusting”. I feel ur pain Hubbs…
😂 opposites attract I guess
Let me tell you, not everyone can be a romantic, some of us have to be practical, logical, and cynical. It’s a balance.
I wrote my disappointed review, i was super irritated by the end. Super cringy Ashleigh today.
Yeah, this may be her absolute worst video, and she thought it was worth a two-parter.
15 minutes of fame might be just about up.
I'm with her. Didn't care for the dude whatsoever, or the romance. Just wanted them to get out of the way so I could watch the boat sink.
Clearly you don't appreciate good cinema or the limited special effects it had then. Stop being annoying and enjoy the film. I can even see annoyance in your husband's face.
Yea had to cut this off half way through. I know it’s a fictional account but still based on real events. Just weird watching you laugh through the whole thing, especially the parts where people are dying 🥴
The biggest laugh for me in this was how proud Ashleigh was that Rose learned how to spit.
At least the spitting lessons were worthwhile. Lol
At least she got something out of it.
When Jack was reaching for the dropped keys underwater, you have to remember that the water is ice cold and his fingers are numb ;) @ "Did you forget how to work your hands?"
Every time the band plays Nearer My God To Thee, I just want to cry!
Fun fact: Bruce Ismay didn't tell the captain to have the ship go full speed. Titanic was not the fastest ship in the world, nor was she intended to be. One of the most influential newspaper publishers at the time (William Randolph Hearst) had a grudge against Ismay, and used the opportunity to essentially paint him as a villain, when in reality he was assisting the crew with loading and lowering lifeboats.
Finally someone said it.
One thing I remember about the ending that I thought was neat, was how Jack predicts that Rose will die, an old lady, "surrounded by her grandchildren". And as they introduce her at the start, she's unpacking her collection of photos of her grandchildren, that she takes everywhere....almost like she's making sure to fulfill his prediction, knowing she could pop off at any time. So at the end, as she drops her "heart" back into the location of the wreckage, and directly above Jack's resting place, her heart is going back down to join him, her one true love. Then, they cut to her in the bedroom on the ship...surrounded by the photos of her grand kids...and she dies...and he soul, goes down with the heart, to reunite with Jack.
The symbolism of it was pretty clever. My favorite being the bit with the photos of her grand children. The bit with the Heart is pretty blunt, and on the nose, but the photo thing, calling back to Jack's comment, that was well done.
Also, if you want another great film by James Cameron that involves water, you should watch The Abyss. That is a FANTASTIC film.
Agree completely!!!! My exact thoughts when I saw the movie in the theater! Also- he said in a warm bed! There were tons of blankets on her bed.
@@mnmb3640 yep, it was a neat call back/chekov's gun to that line, seeded at the very start of the film. i like it when film creators/writers/directors take the time to incorporate the tiny details in the scene itself, to help flesh out the narrative. so when you spot it, either on a repeat viewing, or the first time, you get that little moment of mental rush as the details click into place, and you mentally go "oooooh! I see what you did there!" xD Just very rewarding
Not to mention the photos showing how she did all the things she had planned to do with Jack. The picture of her ‘riding like a man’ on a beach in front of rollercoasters, where they planned to ride ‘until they throw up’, her with the plane, etc
Very beautifully said!
Awww :( ♥
Lol she sobs her heart out over Steel Magnolias and Fried Green Tomatoes, but when Jack dies in Titanic?
"He big dead." *laughs* 😆
"Its a cute story"? In addition to the 1514 people who died, what else made this cute?
I was fascinated by the Titanic even as a child and read everything about it I could get my hands on - starting with Walter Lord's "A Night to Remember". When my grandparents found out, they told me that we had a relative who went down with the ship named Thomas Andrews. What I knew and they didn't was that he wasn't just a passenger. He was managing director for Harland & Wolff and designed the Titanic. He's played in the movie by Victor Garber. We've traced the family tree - he's my first cousin (three times removed.)
Fun fact - one of the chefs drank a bottle of whiskey as the ship went down, he was pulled from the water 3 hours later still alive.
Also the red hair lady in 3rd class with the two children is the hard ass Pvt. Vasquez from Aliens.
Pvt. Vasquez was also Janelle in T2.
@@eugeneoman Aaand, ever so briefly, she was the T-1000.
That's really weird, since alcohol may make you feel warmer, but you actually lose body heat much faster, cause your blood vessels are closer to the surface of your skin.
The chef wasn’t actually in the water.
The guy who shot himself during the sinking was actually a hero who managed to get as many people to safety as possible.
Yeah, for some reason all Titanic movies (including the animated ones) portray him as a coward and a fiend.
@@WisteriaDrake Right?! What's up with that? It's well-documented how brave and heroic this dude was, and everyone's like "fuck that guy, piece of shit shooting innocent people." Like, Jesus guys, you're already using fictional people. Maybe don't shit on one of the true blue heroes.
@@WisteriaDrake I disagree when you call him a coward
Had the crew not been in shock - for a variety of reasons - far more people may have been saved.
Firstly, upon striking the iceberg the ship should have been stopped in its immediate vicinity.
After determining the extent of the damage, when it became clear it would sink, they could have used a portion of the lifeboats to ferry passengers to the iceberg. IT was not going to sink.
Put as many onto it and then into the boats. Radio its location and direction of drift. Leave them with plenty of flares.
@@mephi654 Well, the thing with the iceberg is that they tend to flip over quite easily, also, based on descriptions, it seemed that the iceberg the Titanic hit was irregular, thus, making it hard to land people on it. So, it would have been very risky trying to put people on it. A few, maybe, but hundreds, I don't think so.
Ashleigh: "Why you gotta call me out like that?"
Blake: "They know it."
Yup, Blake, we do. You sir, are a hero."
I see why you two are together. Your personalities compliment each other. And your both naturally funny in different ways.
Wow. I've never seen anyone ruin Titanic...
It's truly bizarre, indeed.
Ever watched Rifftrax?
ruclips.net/video/wk_CurRcWfA/видео.html&lc=Ugys25_fgc7ihfZLhs54AaABAg&ab_channel=DanzW0rld Try sitting through this reaction, you'll turn it off in disgust,
LMAO
I didn't think anyone else saw Rifftrax
I can’t emphasize enough how insane it was to see this part in the theater. The scale was so massive and stressful everyone was a wreck. It really was like you were on the Titanic - especially when you consider how dark a movie theater is and it blended perfectly with the darkness on the sky on screen. I still remember the audible gasp when Rose bailed on the lifeboat and got back on the boat.
I gasped at that part too
yeah, seeing this in theaters, it just made it so much more moving! I saw it first w/friends and sobbed my eyes out, then saw it a few days later w/another crew and started crying when jack won the tickets in the beginning because I knew what was going to happen. SUCH a stressful, but amazing movie!
I cried when I saw Jack was dead and I remember hearing people crying too. But yeah it was epic to see for sure. I was a teen myself (I was 15 at the time) when I saw it. Only reason why I wanted to see it was because I had a major crush on Leo at the time and I was getting into Disaster movies too (you can thank Independence Day for that).
As a 4-hr. movie, it was supposed to have an intermission after “That was the last time she saw daylight”, but Cameron thought the audience wouldn’t come BACK to see the ship sink.
(Sort of like Ash and It’s a Mad x4 World.) 😛
And don't forget that all of those creaking and banging sounds were at full volume in Dolby surround sound...it was truly moving to see that ship go down at the theater.
3:40 that's actually where the VHS that I grew up with stopped. " I believe you may get your headlines mr. Ismay."
This movie always makes me cry. But it's not the scene with Jack and Rose. It's the elderly couple cuddling and the mom and her two kids. That makes me cry every time, it just hurts to see.
"Be honest, you just wanted two uploads for the price of one." PLEEEEEASE MORE BLAKE, MORE BLAKE IN THE REACTIONS!
Right? Their chemistry together is perfect.
It was terrible, no offense to hubbins. Here was my comment: First time I've ever been annoyed with one of your reactions. You were too busy cracking wise jokes the whole time to really pay attention and get into the movie, at least in the second part where it got serious. This was based a a real, tragic event, and while normally I love your jokes, to be doing nothing but cracking wise the whole time was a disservice to this movie and it seemed the concept of the disaster and the re-enactment of it was of great humor to you. Mabye it's because Hubbins was there, but you didn't react to the movie, you mocked it...right to the end.
@Otto Fetting Um...was that really necessary?
@Otto Fetting naw...you were just being an ass
@Otto Fetting yeah...pretty much
I laughed in the theater when she said I’ll never let you go then literally let him go to sink to the bottom of the ocean. And I really liked it, but as a literal person that made me laugh.
She says, "I'll never let go." (of the struggle to live). She doesn't say, "I'll never let YOU go."
@@garyglaser4998 my point stands
I laughed when the guy fell didn't hit the propeller and started tumbling
Hmm, on a similar note, in Romeo and Juliet (the one with Leo) my friends and I all laughed at Juliet's reaction to discovering dead Romeo. She makes a really weird crying noise that broke the tension of the sadness which made it seem all the more funny.
in german she says "I won't ever forget it"
I agree with Hubbin- nothing should be taken and sold- it’s like grave robbers. But the items brought up and put in museums or traveling exhibitions allows people like us to see these items up close. Each soul who lost their life that night, 119 years ago is still alive in the hearts and minds of those of us who want to know each of their stories. Imagine that for one second…their lives ended tragically, but they are still remembered over 119yrs later! That is amazing!
Sadly, Ballard was very naive and thought people would respect the site of the wreck. Nope, people were out as soon as he found it scooping up items and selling them at high prices. So the museums had to get in on the act otherwise, all the good items would be lost to private collections and never seen again. It sank in international waters, so no one has jurisdiction over it.
The ending always gets me, no matter how many times I have watched the film.
Seeing Rose die in her bed, with all the photos of her doing exactly what Jack said she would do, and them going back to the ship where she is finally reunited with him. That moment where he turns around, I literally want to sob just thinking about it!
All the people there are also people who died, including Cora, the little girl Jack danced with 💔.
That end scene to me is absolutely perfect, the music, the fact that Jack is waiting for Rose under the clock etc everything. And that's why Titanic is one of my favourite films ever.
She 100% has a different take on movies with her husband. I expected nonstop sobbing from Ashleigh, but this was incredibly tame and muted.
Give her The Green Mile or Million Dollar Baby and you'll see her really cry
I agree. If I Just guessed the movie based on her reaction, I would have said a comedy, as she was smiling and laughing all the way through it. Weird, as her reactions were emotional on other movies. Titanic had some scenes that were genuinely harrowing - considering some of the details were based in fact..
Are we sure this isn't a twin sister?
The only time she showed empathy was for the diamond 💎 necklace when she threw it in the ocean at the end.
Not everybody enjoyed this movie - difference of opinion and all that. Box office success doesn't necessarily imply the movie is guaranteed to resonate with everyone.
@@MrMarvelous1973 Yeah. I want her to see Green Mile, but not with Hubben if she's going to joke through it. She should save Hubben for Comedies.
I want to take some time to say thank you to Blake (Hubbin) for not only watching this movie with Ashleigh and the rest of us but also for the fun facts about the Titanic. Great reaction as always.
Word. 👍
I cried when Rose died. And yes she did die. An old woman warm in her bed.
Yeah, it was fun
Jack's death was sad, but not the most impactful... the old couple cuddling in the bed as the water rushed in; the mother reading to her children as the water rushed in; the musicians playing their final song in the background as the boat sinks... THOSE were the saddest/most beautiful scenes.
And most people complain that Twilight didn’t build Edward and Bella‘s relationship up enough to warrant the kind of love they declared, so I think the amount of time we spent watching Jack and Rose together helps to make their relationship believable.
Hubbin's face when Ashleigh gave the ship 0/5 stars was priceless. Also, James Cameron tends to reuse actors...did you notice how he used Hudson and Vasquez from Aliens?
One was in Terminator, the other in Terminator 2
Yeah but Vasquez (Jenette Goldstein) is almost unrecognizable. It took me a long time to realize she was in Terminator 2. She went from dark hair and dark skin to red hair and fair skin with freckles. Hudson (Bill Paxton) was also in Terminator and True Lies.
@@FanboyFilms She's one of those actors that can play anything.
I love Hubbins response, when he said, " Wifen doesn't let me display my collection lol
I remember going to the theater to see this movie. I was 19 years old and my wife wanted to go see it. She told me it was a movie about old people and i had absolutely no interest in going at that point. But hey, we had seen Seven years in Tibet and that was a great nap for me, so i agreed. I was so shocked at how good of a movie it was. I'm really glad she forced me to go see it.
CQD is morse ode "Come Quick Danger" and SOS is "Save Our Ship"
Also there was a deleted scene from the movie that shows Cora (the little girl from the 3rd class dance scene) and her parents being trapped behind one of those barricades as it started to flood and no way out. It was a heart clinching scene for sure.
Blake's calm persona compliments Ashleigh's hyperactive personality well 👏🏿👌🏿
Aren't they just the cutest pair?
Perfectly! 👌🏾
They are what Jack and Rose could have been. Jack was a man of action but had a calm demeanor and Rose has that slightly jumpy and neurotic streak. Which is why she felt so pressured but also why she was so perceptive. Ashleigh is also very perceptive.
She reminds me of myself, I blurt out stuff that only a loved one could tolerate during a sad movie.
@@stephanieellis5399 Her cute? She'd drive me crazy in a day 😆
@@normandavidtidiman9918 maybe. But you're not Blake and I was complementing them as a couple. I know that Blake and I would not be a good match but that doesn't mean I can't appreciate him nor see how awesome he and Ashleigh are together
19:23 There's a deleted scene where they find her holding it and she mentions that that was what made the times when she was poor difficult, knowing that she was simultaneously rich, but that whenever she thought of selling it she felt like selling it would mean that she would still be relying on Cal for something or taking money off him and therefore letting him have a hold on her. "And day by day, I managed to survive without him".
Rose could have sold the necklace and used the money to help the poor. Start a charity in Jack's name.
"You'll have to pay for that!" The White Star Line, that owned the Titanic, actually sent a bill to the families of crew members who were lost for the cost of their uniforms.
My son uses humor on horror movies and really sad or bad scenes. He was 14 years old and when the guy fell off the back and hit the propeller, he laughed and the whole theater laughed for a minute! Not me. ❤❤❤I won’t get on you for reactions-everyone handles things differently! Be yourself that’s why you are loved❤
CQD => CQ = "Seek you (meaning: to all stations)" + D = "distress" => "To all stations, we are in distress"
I thought it was Come Quickly Distress
@@nrkgalt nope. since there is a "regular CQ" still in use today for regular "seeking contact to anyone that receives". Example: CQ DX (seek you, distant transmission). CQ has nothing to do with quick or come. just "seeking you who listen"
And it naturally got overtaken by the SOS signal: Screaming Ourselves Silly.
Lol
But that's interesting. Something I didn't know before.
@@cyberwolf_1013 i like your SOS betterer than simple "save our souls"
Really? That is dumb. It should be "Seek Us, we are in Distress" or SUD. Talk about poor English wording.
"I'mma need you to run to the valley of the shadow of death, my friend." 🤣 Such an Ashleigh thing to say lmao!
Leo was saying the same thing but she said it over him.
There was a TV commercial where the old woman throws the Heart back in the ocean, then she jumps in. The commercial has her climbing out and using the yellow pages to sell the Heart to a pawn shop. It shows her with a smile and a handful of cash. Very funny.
That Irish mother calming her children? Same actress who played John Connor's foster mother in T2: Judgment Day ("Wolfie's just fine, honey. "Where are you?") and tough Marine Vasquez in Aliens ("You always were an asshole, Gorman" BOOM!).
Such a pretty voice, Ashleigh.
Not so fun fact, some experiments show that more lifeboats would not have necessarily saved more lives and likely would have sunk right TITANIC Never being launched. This is due to how long it took to prep, load, and lower each individual life boat. These experiments suggest that the crew actually did about about as well as could be expected considering the system/equipment they had to work with.
Also many people talk about how the driftwood was large enough for both jack and rose, which it was. If you watch closely when jack goes to get on the wood dips under the water with their combined weight. It was a buoyancy issue not a size one.
I am absolutely baffled that people criticize Jack for this. It's almost as if they've never seen the movie, because he tried to get on, but he couldn't.
@@amwfan88 Jack is criticized for not looking for another piece. And the Film itself for breaking physics to have this in there
@@squattingheads He was also freezing to death. I'm sure he wasn't thinking clearly.
I read a great book on the development of transatlantic steamships, and most shipwrecks were either not survivable (ships just disappeared) or happened during storms or collisions where there wasn't a chance to launch many, if any lifeboats. The idea you would have an accident on a calm sea with enough time to carefully evacuate everyone was almost unthinkable. Even ships with sufficient lifeboats, like the Andrea Doria that sank in the 50s, couldn't launch them all because of the nature of the accident (in that case, a severe list causing 1/2 the boats to be useless).
Yeah, they didn't even have time to properly launch all of the boats they had. They just floated them off the deck as she went under. Lusitania had enough boats for everyone (it was a legal requirement after the Titanic), but they still lost a huge amount of people.
Fun facts:
-The run time of the movie ship scenes is the time it took for the ship to sink so we can experience how long they had.
- James actually went in the little submarine to the Titanic - The start was footage he took.
- They built the entire one side of the ship to scale.
- The knife Fabrizio used to cut the rope and saving many people was the same knife him and Jack won at the card game that got them the ticket.
- Some of the cast needed therapy after to recover from the trauma of filming the sinking scenes.
- Kate spitting in Cals face was not scripted.
- The elderly couple were based on real passengers.
- The drawing of rose was done in the film by James (those are his hands) and also did the drawings in the binder.
- The water was so cold on set that Kate got a mild case of hypothermia.
- The chef drinking his flask next to them as it sank was based on a real person, who survived the water for 2 hours as he had so much alcohol in his system.
So that was Cal's true reaction to being spit in the face? That was such a smart improvisation by Kate given the scene earlier with the spitting contest.
The older couple were the owners of the Macy's store.
I remember watching some behind the scenes footage where Kate ran out of spit and they had to use KY jelly.
@@adamisajoker How crazy is that? and she refused to get on the life boat without him, although they offered him one due to his age, he refused to take the space of a woman or child.
@@neil2444 Yeah according to James! He loved the idea so much he made her do it like 10 times, and they ended up using the first take haha.
I love the Beans interlude at the end. Nothing more special than being chosen for cuddles, no matter how weird they get! My Elliot likes to nuzzle my armpit. I don't ask questions, just accept the love.
Titanic is NOT the worst maritime event in history, it''s most known one.
At the end of WW2, a German ship carrying refugees escaping advancing Soviet troops was sunk by a Soviet submarine, 8000 went down with the ship.
That's at least 5 times more than the Titanic!
Nobody: "We hope she cries when Jack dies"
Everybody: "We hope she starts yelling and cursing that there is room on the raft for two!"
Both of their weight would've sank it
@@TimpossibleOne It would not have gone down because if they laid themselves so the weight would be level.
Third alternative: Jack didn’t really want to marry her because he thought it would screw her life up. But he didn’t want to live without her. So he intentionally froze to death.
@@jamesmoyner7499 Mythbusters confirmed it wouldn't have stayed above water with both their weight.
Or here's an idea. She stays on the lifeboat that Jack went through all the struggle and effort to get her on, instead of getting back onto A SINKING SHIP! That way she's safe, and now Jack can just work on saving himself, maybe ending up on the door by himself and living. But NO! She's so distraught, so in love, that she has to climb out of the lifeboat, back on the sinking ship; forcing Jack to have to save her a second time, and ultimately costing him his life.
I hate this plot device. I've seen it in other movies, like Deep Impact. The guy makes arrangements to get his girlfriend/new bride onto the bus to be taken to the cave shelter to be saved from the comet. But no, she can't stand to leave her parents, so she won't get on the bus. Then the boyfriend/new husband has to make a difficult and dangerous trip back, miraculously find her among tens of thousands of people fleeing the impending total wave, and save her a second time by struggling to get her to high ground.
I have a feeling Ashley would have cried if she saw this alone. Don’t get me wrong, hubbin is hilarious, but I think him being there made her more jokey.
yep but it's awesome.
Same here. I was a little disappointed in the reaction. I thought she would’ve balled her eyes out. She’s always emotional during other movies. The difference in those movies and Titanic is that this really happened minus the jack and rose love story. I always get emotional when the band plays and you see all those people dying. She joked a lot which I have no problem with but I was really looking forward to this reaction. I think if she watched it alone she would’ve been less talkative and jokey. Hubbin seemed to be more invested. But I still enjoy her content and Ashley’s bubbly personality.
@@tokkibeanie She constantly doesn't emotional during other films that have deep emotion.
Why? I was dragged to this thing by my cousin when it came out, and I didn't find it sad at all. The characters were annoying and I just felt nothing for them.
If she was watching it solo or not reacting to it, she probably would have had more emotion for it. A lot of reaction people feel the need to entertain, so they sometimes act differently when talking to the camera.
19:13 not only that…before rose began her story, and she and the granddaughter were being shown the drawing, the expedition leader comments “so the diamond, HAD to have gone down with the ship”, and blink-and-you’ll-miss-it…the look on older roses face
There’s also an alternative version of this scene which is well worth a watch, but this was chosen so that it would be a more private and heartfelt moment
I like that the movie left it up to the audience to decide if Rose was just dreaming of Jack at the very end or if she died and joined him. According to the screenplay, it was intentionally left ambiguous. Either way, it was a beautiful ending.
I've always referred to it as "Titanic Heaven" at the end there, assuming she did eventually "die an old, old lady warm in her bed" just as Jack said that she would.
In the words of Homer Simpson: "Old lady from Titanic, you suck!" What annoyed me about that ending was poor old Bill Paxton. Does old Rose just say to him, "Yeah, you should keep on looking for the necklace, Bill Paxton. It must be on the ship somewhere."? Then she goes back to her cabin and pisses herself laughing.
I mean, at least he has a chance to find it down there now.
Rose could have just been buried with it and never told anyone but the undertaker. People would go back down there for god knows how long, and never be able find the thing.
She has objectively increased their odds of making their grand discovery, she just didn't go so easy as to literally hand it to them making a massive anticlimax of their careers.
This is in some ways quite a bit kinder.
Apparently, the original script (which was filmed) was that she was going to kill herself & the crew & her granddaughter confront her. Then she throws the necklace over the side, with Paxton’s blessing, or something like that.
@@morganrobinson8042 A chance of finding it? On the seabed? It took them 73 years to find something the size of Titanic and you think they have a chance of finding something the size of a matchbox? LOL
How would giving them the necklace be an anticlimax? You think it's better they spend thousands or millions more dollars, and many more years of their lives searching the wreckage for something that isn't there, and old Rose KNOWS isn't there? You have a strange idea of kind. :-D
@@goldenageofdinosaurs7192 There is an alternate ending which I think is even more sadistic of old Rose: ruclips.net/video/Z45abi4N4_E/видео.html But at least in this version Bill Paxton knows not to keep on looking.
Yeah Lovejoy gets to hold the necklace yeah... it's an awful, awful alternative ending. Way too cheesy with the shooting star 🤮. It really didn't work.
Cameron built a replica of the entire starboard side and then multiple scale models, depending on the purpose. One to sink etc. There's a lot of miniature work you don't realize is miniature work. Like the shot of the water rushing in and forcing off all the doors in that hallway, that was a miniature.
Also, Cameron did his homework. The guy saying he and his valet would go down like gentlemen, that's Benjamin Guggenheim. We see Isidor and Ida Straus, co-owners of Macy's with Nathan Straus, together in their bed. The guy with the flask, he was really there and that's how he said he survived. But the fate of First Officer Murdoch is pure fiction and Cameron and the studio execs went to his hometown to apologize and establish a scholarship, memory serves.
The fate of Murdoch wasn’t pure fiction if you read, you’ll see that there are several survivors reports of an officer shooting himself before the ship went down
His homework went wrong with portrayal of Ismay and Murdoch. Captain Smith too!
Everyone is like “it’s so sweet Rose is with Jack in the afterlife” and no one thinks about the husband she had AFTER Jack waiting for her lol
Considering all the documentaries they have seen about titanic, this is just another version of a story that they know so well, of course she wouldn’t get as sentimentally invested as in other movies. I’m actually impressed by all the memorabilia they have about it: menus, boarding passes, blueprint of the ship, that’s awesome guys!
Good point. It’s kind of like rewatching Batman’s parents deaths, it gets tedious
I wonder if Rose had stayed on the life boat, if Jack would've survived. He is a survivor, I feel he would've found a way. Heck, he probably would've done what they did but he would've had that door.
This is so true! Never thought of that. 👏👏
Wouldnt he still be handcuffed in a room?
You know I never even thought of the before. He spent all that time focusing on helping Rose, had she stayed on one of the lifeboats he could have possibly found a way on his own. He is resilient and smart, who knows what could have happened.
@@thesilversage1 oh yeah 😂👍
@@thesilversage1 actually wasn't it after that she jumped off the boat? Can't remember now it was so long ago.
More reactions with Hubbins! Three seconds of Blake's facial expressions are worth about a thousand words! :)
the man who was on the back of the ship with rose survived in the ocean. He drank whiskey and the alcohol kept his body warm until he was saved
