I might actually just die of excitement before April gets here.

Titanic 3D.

HATERS MAY FAMILIARIZE THEMSELVES WITH LEFTHAND EVACUATION PROCEDURES. I saw Titanic in theaters ten times, okay? I was one of those teenage girls AND I REGRET NOTHING. I was really disappointed when 2007 came and went without a ten year anniversary rerelease, so I cannot express my joy over this. Watching 3D movies is a pain in the ass for me because I wear glasses, but I don't even care. I am ecstatic. Is it April yet?

...you know, I was all set for those lefthand evacuation procedures, but then I realized I actually know literally nothing about this movie except that it is when people started caring about Leo DiCaprio and it made a lot of money? also a boat sinks

*does math*

holy shit I was nine when it came out, perhaps that is why

This is how bad the backlash was back in the day! EVEN YOU ARE PREPARED TO HATE FOR NO REASON.

I say that with the greatest of love, of course.

why was the backlash so bad XD

I was nine, what reason could I possibly have had to give a fuck

Because of how intensely popular the movie was when it came out. After a little while, it stopped being cool to like Titanic and became cool to hate it. A lot. Like, a lot a lot. Like, so much that it became part of popular culture and has reverberated so strongly throughout space and time that even you (despite your general non-giving-a-fuck about pop culture) have assimilated it and responded accordingly. That's why this entry is so defensive. Liking Titanic is STILL a good way to get yourself mocked out of existence even by people who have never seen it.
