Titanic/Trivia


 * Doing It for The Art: The film went over budget and over schedule, Cameron forfeited his salary to make sure he could continue. Not to mention the extensive amounts of research and detail the production team put into making the film.
 * Hey It's That Guy: Plenty of faces.
 * Annie Wilkes is Molly Brown.
 * Private Hudson is Brock Lovett. Oh, and Private Vasquez / John Connor's foster mom has a cameo as an Irish immigrant.
 * King Theoden is Captain Smith.
 * Rose was rescued by Fifth Officer Lowe, who is best known as Horatio Hornblower, Lancelot and Mr. Fantastic.
 * Victor Newman plays John Jacob Astor.
 * Jack Bristow should have built a stronger ship.
 * J. Bruce Ismay was last seen hunting Robin Williams. He also played his dad in the same movie.
 * James Cameron himself cameos in the movie, during the sinking scene. He is among the crowd surrounding Father Byles as he gives the Last Rites. He also shows up at the steerage party.
 * Hey It's That Voice: The echo-ey singing voice heard throughout the movie is the Swedish voice of Ariel.
 * Meaningful Release Date: The 3D rerelease was timed to correspond to the centenary of the sinking in 2012. It released on April 6th, four days before the Titanic set sail - most likely to avoid a midweek release, and to capitalise on Easter weekend crowds.
 * Troubled Production: Over budget, behind schedule, anyone that could get injured and/or sick did so (Kate Winslet even said she only works with James Cameron again for a lot of money!), a disgruntled crew member drugged the night soup...
