jereve 1,627 Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 For the record I have never seen Titanic (sue me) but it's probably the greatest love story told on the big screen with an impact lasting decades. To this day, it is still being referenced. BUT I had one thought in mind. spoiler below ( sorry) Spoiler Titanic = Jack dies A Star is Born = Jack dies. Conincidence? Bitch, nevah. Titanic depicted a love story at it's time and so did ASIB. ASIB did such a good job at creating a modern love story that's real, raw, relatable, messy, dysfunctional, insane, etc. Titanic as well with Jack and Rose (la vie en Rose, wtf) relationship always in peril... and it wasn't until the ending that love was truly felt. Same goes for ASIB. Ally felt she can never love again towards the end. And I don't think any romantic movie can top ASIB besides Titanic. What do you say? thoughts?

derpmonster 22,412 Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 I think it's a little premature to say that. Titanic got universal insane acclaim and was an original story (correct me if I'm wrong). I don't think ASIB is there.

FFXSoul91 1,098 Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 Titanic is flawless (don't come for me about the board thing, if James Cameron says it wouldn't work, it wouldn't work) so I'd call those comparisons a good thing. They're very different films though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well the love story was original, I guess (insofar as prince-and-pauper love stories can be), but obviously the ship and disaster was real. 俺の勝利は揺るぎない Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

River 117,117 Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 Titanic is a different thing, if you lived at the time of the movie you know how crazy it was. People watched it not 2-3 but more than 15 times, it was at the cinema for like 10 months, sold out every single day and show.. we will never get this kind of phenomenon anymore..

Even story wise, it's not the same, their love story is different.. ASIB story is more about the struggle of the success of your love, Titanic story is more about fighting for your love, against everything..
