OMG, why did I have to do that?
From: Merkey.net Topic:

Anyways, for the last 3 hours, plus including all those annoying commercial breaks, I finally got to see Titanic since its release in 1997, where I only saw a little of the ending and that's it. I was really excited to laugh really hard and make fun of Leonardo DiCaprio's death scene. (Mind you, I was against the "I love Leo" craze back then) I heard it was cheesy and corny looking and oh yeah! Perfect MST3K bait!

I came in to watch the movie, when Jack (or Leonardo) won his ticket to the Titanic. I kept on screaming weird random things at odd parts of the flick too. When Rose tries to kill herself, I was oddly quiet . Mind you, I'm one of those kind of weirdos that would usually sit in a movie audience and don't give a f*cking care about talking outloud and saying, "OH NO! DON'T DO IT!" or *insert making fun of material* With the first kiss (which i was laughing really hard) it just came out for no apparent reason and muttered, "First Kisses aren't really like that." O.o Also, when Rose and Jack erm..do it, I kept on saying, "I wanna see the hot and steamy scene! WHEEEE!" I was that high on something, and usually I hate seeing that kind of stuff. When the Titanic was beginning to sink and Rose was trying to save Jack, I kept on thinking of all my weird dreams of being in a room and suddenly its all filled with water. (Yes, I am afraid to drown whenever I go to the sea, yet I still swim).

And, dear god have mercy, they had to focus on other people crying, begging, and praying and all that stuff.

It brought back horrible memories to the hotel fire down in Salt Lake City that I was in. I remember it clearly, it was after 9/11 and we had just watched something about 9/11 on 24 because I couldn't fall asleep. And then, it was late at night, the fire alarm went off and we were on almost on the top of the hotel as there weren't many rooms left vacante. When running to the fire escape, I remember crying like a freaked out little girl, and my Dad picking me up and doing piggyback with me, and I was clutching really hard on my stuffed monkey. The running down the steps hurt my chest, that i remember, and I was crying thinking I was going to die. When we finally got to the lounge, barely anybody was there and we raced to the opening doorways and a troop of firemen came past us; then and there I knew there was a fire going on. When we came out and sat on the cold sidewalk, I was crying like an idiot, and I was shaking so hard, that when the fire was cleared and we could go back, we stayed on the lounge talking area and people were asking me if I was okay because I wouldn't stop shaking. Horrible memories, and this movie brought them back; great.

When they were freezing half to death (the people in the movie), I was sort of saying they reminded me of Mr. Freeze from Batman (I forgot his name). However, when Leonardo died, I was getting ready to bring up all making-fun-of-hell, but, and damn my sissy self, my eyes were brimming with tears! "OMFG!" I shouted (with a repulse from my dad and mom) and whacked my plastic sword (yes, I was holding a plastic sword with its sheathe) on the couch and started playing around with it and hitting random things. I then eyed my dad and noticed he was wiping off tears. The last time I saw him do that was back at my Grandpa's funeral. God, Titanic really went through me and MADE me sniffle up the tears. Meh....

Btw, I have been since, I believe before this movie ever came out, a Titanic fan of learning about the real thing. *points to the 3000 and something facts that you didn't know about Titanic book* Ahem, so yeah. I made a fool of myself for that scene. >_< Oh god...
