In my sophomore year of high school our entire class went to the movie theater downtown to see him in Hamlet. Lol That memory just flashed when you mentioned Burton for some reason.

But weeks back, IMAX theatres in major cities around the globe held a special Valentine's Day screening. Advanced tickets sold out on-line within a half hour. It's going to make pretty good money for a movie* already available on DVD. I guess alot of middle/high school girls from the late 90s want to relieve their teenhood. I mean look at the money 3-D PHANTOM MENACE made, and about everybody hates that movie. *=LION KING last year did $70 million plus.

TIS My mocking and proding aside, I'll give TITANIC this: It's the sort of production that has to be seen on the big screen. DVD does it no justice. PHANTOM MENACE on the other hand, that new 3-D print is only good for wiping your ass with. Originally Posted By: J Geoff Why does everyone rag on Titanic all the time? I actually enjoyed it.
