Great news to all moviegoers who loved the Titanic movie, which used to hold the title, "the highest grossing film of all-time", because director James Cameron has decided to convert the film in 3D. By the way, he was the writer, producer, and director of the movie (as well as the hand who drew the naked Kate Winslet while she's wearing the 'heart of the ocean' necklace). Cameron is in collaboration with his Lightstorm producing partner, Jon Landau, along with Paramount Pictures, and 20th Century, in re-releasing Titanic.
This is a great opportunity for people who saw the film, when it was released back in 1997, to enjoy watching it again in 3D quality, as well as to the generation who are only able to enjoy it through DVDs. Cameron was quoted saying, "There's a whole generation that's never seen Titanic as it was meant to be seen, on the big screen," he continued, "And this will be Titanic as you've never seen it before, digitally remastered at 4K and painstakingly converted to 3D. With the emotional power intact and the images more powerful than ever, this will be an epic experience for fans and newcomers alike."
I know that I am not alone when I say that Titanic is one of the greatest films of all-time. In fact, the film won an outstanding 11 Oscars (including Best Picture) during the 71st Academy Awards, a feat only reached by the film, 'Ben Hur'. Together, they have the record of 'the most ever won Oscars'.
Currently, Titanic, which stars Leonardo DiCaprio and Kate Winslet, is the second-highest-grossing movie of all time, since Avatar (a film written, directed, and produced also by Cameron) already took their number one spot.
The re-release of Titanic will be on April 6, 2012, a date that coincides with the 100th anniversary of the ship setting sail, which is April 10. It's only June 7, 2011 and I am already excited to see the film.
