- You notice every small flaw the film has to offer--even to the tiny detail
of cringing when that obviously rookie actor and his somewhat more experienced actor friend are tossing that chunk of ice about, talking briefly about how the ship hit the iceberg. (Tess)
- You tire yourself out trying to find websites and/or any scrap of info you can on Jason Barry [Tommy Ryan].(Tess)

(I can't tell you exactly where it is because the counter on my CD player is broken. When I get it fixed, I'll tell you exactly where it is. It's high-pitched, kinda blends in but it's there. It's a little bit after the ship breaks in two) (Aaron)

- When watching TITANIC and the scene where Jack and Rose are in the freezing water, you turn on you ceiling fan on high, open your window to the 32 degree weather outside, put on the thinnest dress you have, and try to imagine what Rose must have been going through as you say her lines and cry when you realize that Jack is dead, (And you've seen The Movie for your 300th time now!)(Rose)

and
tells you (knowing your obsession with Titanic) that "As Good As It
Gets" is a better movie then Titanic. You then feel the need to slap
her.

can't
get mad at them because they remind you too much of Gloria Stuart and
Suzy Amis.

and
how much colder they were. Besides, you'll live--Jack didn't.

you on your wonderful drawing. "It's so accurate!" You get an A+
without
the teacher even thinking.
