Titanic (1997)

We’re taking a little journey on a little boat named the Titanic,
and joining us on this expedition is Walt Hickey! After hearing
about Walt’s new book, You Are What You Watch, we talk about
non-cars that matter to him (cinematic and otherwise) before
reading some truly pathetic crazy credits (and being reminded about
IMDb’s humble origins). Joey recounts the tale of PCP in this film
production’s clam chowder, we all remember watching this movie on
VHS, and we talk about how young is too young to watch Titanic. We
discuss James Cameron’s ability to make you forget this is all
taking place on a boat, the flair (or lack thereof) of the title
card, and how good Kathy Bates is as the Unsinkable Molly Brown.
Walt praises James Cameron for his subtle ability to state the
movie’s theme and offers up a nice new definition of what makes a
vehicle. We talk about “the Celine Dion of it all,” Cameron’s
ability to articulate the geography of the Titanic, and the meaning
/ interpretation of the ending. We watch the shockingly terrible
(!) trailer for Titanic. Email us: family@cageclub.me Visit our
