    Damn Van Ling and his *&^ easter eggs--I geniunely hate that guy and his arrogance in insisting that I should have to waste time figuring out his stupid puzzles to see something I paid good money for. I cannot get to any of them and would appreciate any help.

    If this branching is anything like the icon based branching on a number of other dvds, notably The Matrix and the Infinifilm titles one does have the option of watching the original film without having the icons pop up. I have quite a few dvds with this Icon based system and they all allow one...

    Now I have to rerun it again tonight. If it were possible to wear out a dvd I'd be on my 3rd copy of Titanic by now. I've always been very impressed with the Abyss SE, with it's wealth of good documentaries and such. Now that Cameron's started doing commentaries, and the LOTR EEs have set a...

    I beleive it was a Fox/Paramount deal, Fox got video rights in all markets but the US, which was Paramount's territory. "I also own all three one-sheets including the teaser poster which was black and had a rivet design like the side of the ship. It advertised "Summer 1997" In spring of 97...

    I've actually bought 4 different dvd players over the years with scaling features for non-anamorphic letterbox dvds primarily because Titanic isn't anamorphic. I have a lot of other non-anamorphic titles but Titanic is still the main impetus for my obsession with that scaling feature. After 2...

    Great, with Van Ling in charge we'll have to spend hours on the 'net finding out how to access all the #$#^$#$ Easter Eggs.

    Thanks for the reassurance, Mr. Blythe. I'll gladly wait patiently for Titanic SE, having seen the great job Paramount's done on Sunset Boulevard. Considering how much material there must be to sift through, and the fact that this movie deserves a truly mind-blowing special edition at least...

    I was under the impression that sales of the original dvd release of Titanic were somewhat disappointing, no surprise given that with it's total lack of extras and non-anamorphic transfe it really was too little too late even if it was the #1 box office hit of all time. This poor sales...

    Titanic was my reference disc, the first one I played after every upgrade. Then I got a 16/9 tv, and Titanic is not anamorphic, and not even flagged properly for my auto-scaling JVC player! I love the movie, but can't bring myself to watch it any more. I miss it so much I'd settle for just an...

    I think we all have one dvd we play first after any upgrade, one we've watched enough times to easily guage the results of that upgrade. For me, Titanic was that dvd. I'd always pop it in first after any tweak or equipment upgrade, and invariably ended up watching the entire 3+ hours as I do...

    I've had a long term fascination with the whole Titanic story, and loved Cameron's film for the way it put me on that ship. Sappy love story notwithstanding, the last half of the film makes you experience the horror of the sinking every bit as effectively as Spielberg's SPR makes you experience...

    Titanic is my most rewatched dvd, and I would love to have as much "making of" stuff as is on the Abyss SE. I'm sure there must be a wealth of this laying around. If Fox could be in charge of the SE instead of Paramount just think of what we'd get: DTS-ES, a 3 disc set like Cleopatra with a...
