Well, after the first couple of times, the movie DOES lose it's appeal, I have to say. Besides, there's only so much you can take of Leo's wooden acting.

Re: Reasons Star Wars is better than Titanic

With the new Star Wars film coming out, I thought I'd post this list. No offense to any Titanic fans, but I didn't care for it all that much.

1.Titanic's big, but it doesn't have hyperdrive.

2.Leia is a senator, a princess,a freedom fighter and has Jedi potential, Rose is just marriage bait

3.Ewoks throw better parties than first class *or* steerage

4.When flying toward the Titanic, Wedge can't say, "Look at the size of that thing!" and really mean it.

5.It would be much scarier to get chased around the boat by a madman waving a lightsaber as opposed to a guy with no aim waving a handgun

6.Titanic is egalitarian by portraying poor people as sympathetic characters. Star Wars by promoting a bug eyed amphibious alien to Admiral

7.Said bugeyed amphibious Admiral manages NOT to lose his ship

8.We know Cal is the bad guy because he sneers at the poor and treats his fiancee like property. We know Darth Vader is the bad guy because he can strangle people without even using his hands and blows up whole planets for fun. Take your pick.

9.There are always enough escape pods in Star Wars.

10.Yeah, Leo can dance, but can he fly an X-Wing?

11. People have not lost their lives trying to recreate scenes from Star Wars on the bow of a cruise liner.

12.Rose braves icy water to rescue her man. Leia offs Jabba the Hutt

13.Two words:John Williams

14.Do you know what the Empire does to self-proclaimed "kings of the world"?

15.If Luke were handcuffed to a pipe belowdecks in a sinking ship, he'd use the Force to get the key

16.Heck, Yoda would just lift the boat out of the water with the Force.

17."I'd rather be his whore than your wife" just doesn't have the same sting as "I'd just as soon kiss a Wookie"

18.We knew the boat was gonna sink. But who anticipated "Luke.... I am your father."

19.And finally...Han Solo would've missed the dang iceberg!
Well you can't compare the two. the totallly different things

It is better because there will be 6 Star Wars movies but only one Titanic movie.

Do not let your guard down. There will probably be more Titanic movies, even if they somehow un-sink the ship. Maybe Rose gets marrried, and the ghost of the dead people all come to haunt her for her evil mistake.

Star Wars is also better because it has Sith.

Star Wars. Not only does it have lightsabers, but it's also an allegorical tale about the ultimate fall of George Steinbrinner's Evil Empire ( Yankees)
