Straight Guys Don’t Like Titanic
We often discuss movies at work. One of the biggest controversy lies around Titanic, one of the highest grossing movies ever.
This movie was supposed to be about Titanic and its historical tragedy. However, it’s simply another fucking gowey love story with the sinking just a background scenario.
Why do I say this? Every time a chick watches a movie 5 times in the theater and cries every single time, IT’S A FUCKING CHICK FLICK.
Let’s see how original this movie is:
- Rich girl is engaged to rich guy
- Rich girl falls in love with charming poor boy
- Rich girl is told not to see poor boy
- Rich girl sneaks out to see poor boy
- Poor boy bangs the hell out of the Rich girl
- Rich guy finds out and frames poor boy for a crime he didn’t do
- [Sausage Filling]
- Poor boy somehow ends up with rich girl
Sounds familiar to you? If it does, it’s probably because it’s the same shit as every other goooey love story. Fuck this!
And on top of this cookie cutter plot, they added:
- Poor boy gives life for rich girl
Double fuck this!
Even the director agrees with me that this movie was supposed to be a love story.
From Wikipedia:
Cameron described a love story as the most engaging part of a story.
And what about Titanic placed in 37th in AFI’s list of the top 100 Love Stories in American Cinema?
I’m disappointed. Titanic reminded more of a Dr Phil episode than a James Cameron movie. Can someone please explain Cameron what Bone and Disown means?
In quick words:
- Guy meets a hot chick
- If guy bones hot chick, the guy disappears
That’s nature. It’s in the Urban Dictionary.It’s law.
Now let’s see why this movie is so silly.
- Guy meets hot chick
- Guy bones the hot chick in less than a week.
- Guy falls in love and gives his life for her
Huh? What happened here? Did James Cameron grow a vagina?
Personally, I was glad when that fucking boat started sinking.
