It was wrong for James Cameron to depict a real historical person like that. Ask James Cameron, who eventually apologized to the Murdoch family for the scene. http://www.contactmusic.com/news-article/cameron-apologises-to-titanic-officer.s-familyTo say it was okay or fair game to severely alter...

I don't know why you keep saying that. A warts and all biopic of Walt Disney would be totally fascinating and completely interesting. A lot of people would want to see a movie about Evil Walt and his nefarious machinations. Good luck making it, though. It would be radioactive. Let me offer...

Right, because if the producers had brought a movie project to Disney about how Walt deceived Travers into relinquishing the rights to her material which she went apeshit over and ended up hating the movie, Disney, and, by proxy, America, that would have totally been greenlighted.

I think that ship sailed when I hit my 30's. And that was a while ago.

It was okay. The flashbacks to Australia, while a necessary storytelling device, bored me. The movie screeched to a halt whenever they cut back. Thompson was very good (and also starred as the Poppins-esuqe Nanny McPhee), but Hanks was just meh. Or maybe it was the part as written -- it's not...
