Not the cheesy movie, but the actual ship itself. I've always been fascinated by it. I used to collect books and any other titanic paraphernalia I could get my hands on. I even made a journey to "The Unsinkable Molly Brown's" house.
Never sure why I loved this ship's history, or lack there of. But It has a special place in my heart. So many lives lost at the cost of social class.
Interesting yet, "God Himself could not sink this ship!" And it sunk on its maiden voyage. Ironic, no? The "safest ship" ever built didn't make a single journey. Ah those icebergs, tricky little devils.

Holy s**t, you been to Molly's house?! Thats like 30 minutes from where I am typing this post! Have you been to the awesome "alternative" clothing store next to it called Fashionation?
The story of Tatanic itself made afraid of ships and all that stuff. I'm scared or Cruiseliners and prefer plains way more.

I find it funny that all they had to do was hit it head on.

The ship didn't have adequate safety provisions (lifeboats, vests, etc.) and so a lot more people died that didn't have to. Why it hit the 'berg in the first place is a different question.

They locked alot of people down below too that could have possibly made it onto a lifeboat.
