Yes, but at least 2 of its movies can be considered all time classics, it was also really revolutionary for cinema and the passion for them has not only survived but grown in the last 40 years, Titanic will stand in history for its high production values and high sales, not the quality of the movie itself, is not a terrible movie by any means, it did its job, but is far from being an all time classic let alone a masterpice. |
Titanic also had "fad-ish" qualities to its run. It was a big deal to teenage girls of that time, but will my kids look at Titanic the same way? No. It is will be associated with the late 1990s and Spice Girls and Backstreet Boys and Jennifer Love Hewitt and the other teen cultural fads of the time.
It's not a bad movie at all, it's a far better movie than Avatar, but the "Titanic craze" as it were is very much a late 1990s type of thing.
Star Wars as a "craze" is still going on 40 years later and multi-generational, there are 7/8 year olds who are now huge Star Wars fans because of TFA.
