Interesting pics. I do have to say I think the Titanic story is getting very old now. I just heard the other day that someone has some kind of lamebrain theory than the moon was close to the Earth that nite and had some effect on iceburgs... Time to get over it. Boat left for a trip, hit an iceburg and sank...end of story. 100 years of retelling it, reinvestigating it, etc is just getting annoying. Its in the history books...read about it if you want. There are as many theories about it as they have on UFOs. I think a UFO fired a plasma weapon on it and it cut the slice into it. They saw it hiding on the iceburg while the aliens were taking a leak...

Actually, I think the discussions are interesting and bring about things not normally thought about. Sort of like .... hey... maybe the earth isn't flat...

I understand and Ill prob watch the new special. Ive heard it ran into an iceburg, Germans sank it, bolts were defective, hull steel was not assembled correctly, a rougue wave knocked the iceburg into it, watertite compartments were not, captain was drunk and no one was driving, etc....

Saw a show on History channel I think about how many coincidental mistakes and assumptions were made that ended up resulting in the tradgedy, it was fairly unexpected how many there were.
Interesting pics. (snip ) while the aliens were taking a leak...
I gotta go with rg here. Is there some point to this? The story of the Titanic isn't going to change, and all those people are still dead. This is simply a titanic waste of energy.

yep, but 100 years of retelling it, reinvestigating it, etc is still PROFITABLE.
Can't believe they are going to re-release Titanic in 3D...

Alot of the statements in the article I was surprised by, I kept thinking, didn't we already do that?
Doesn't look like the back of the ship is holding up to well. We only have a short time before this ship will be lost forever. It's already falling apart. I think there are a lot of valuable things that can be learned still from this wreck.

We are just over a month away from the 100th anniversary of the sinking so it stands to reason that we are going to be bombarded with stories about it.
I for one can't get enough. Those are some hauting images. Let's all remember 1500 people died that day. It's worth our time.

I saw the movie and in my opinion Leonardo DiCaprio sank the thing...and why did that dumb broad throw that necklace in the ocean at the end?? (wtf) That thing was probably worth millions.
