Titanic
goofs continued... (click

- I served in the u. s. navy and can tell
you even in calm winds when the ship is going
at about 17 to 23 knots your hair blows a
whole lot more than in a lot of scenes. -
Ron, (Mr. Titanic)
- On the real titanic Murdoch did not commit
suicide by putting a gun to his head. - Ron, (Mr. Titanic)
- Correction:
Actually, William Murdoch did commit suicide
by shooting himself, after he had shot
a couple other men. A real Titanic survivor
wrote about it. - kyara
- Correction:
It is not
known whether or not William Murdoch
committed suicide or not. There are
stories that say that he did, and
some that say he didn't. It's like
the story with Captain Smith. Nobody
knows for sure what happened. - Donica
- Addition:
In regards to the comment about the scene
where Murdoch is shooting himself, guns
have quite the kick especially revolvers
(I'm a part time cop I know this). Considering
how he shot himself with his left hand,
he'd fall over towards the side holding
the gun. In this case, he fell to the
left, because he shot himself with his
left hand. =) - Laura
- In the movie as the stern comes more out
of the icy waters they show after a bad dip
to the bow after it has been submerged they
finally show dinnerware, stateroom furniture,
and other props being flung toward the bow---this
would have happened much sooner. - Ron, (Mr. Titanic)
- When the first funnel crashes on Fabrizio,
(Danny Nucci) the scale to set does not match.
I could go on but you surely don't want that
to happen. Was however pleased that it did
well at the box office, and sparked an interest
in the ill fated liner---naturally being a
titaniac I am biased. Take it easy thanks
for the vent. - Ron, (Mr. Titanic)
- When Jack is DEAD and FROZEN on the piece
of woods, he squints his eyes before submerging
under the waves. - Gunter
Ullryk
- In the infamous drawing scene (where Rose
lies naked), Rose flips Jack a Roosevelt dime.
However, these were not issued until 1946.
- Crash
- Correction:
Really, it is not a Roosevelt dime that
Rose gave Jack--it was agreed that that
dime was a Barber dime, minted from 1892-1916.
- kyara
- When Rose and Jack are kissing after having
sex the 2 men watching say they want to get
warm and that was a gay comment. If they had
been watching the water they would have seen
the iceberg sooner and thus turned earlier.
- Stupid Ugly
- Comment: Well,
that was probably just James Cameron's
way of showing that they could've seen
the iceberg sooner. Cuz I know in real
life they probably could have seen the
berg earlier than what the did and that's
why it sank. So maybe he just threw that
in there to take up time. - Carly
- Correction:
The men ARE looking forward before
the berg comes into view. The one
lookout clearly sees it go from nothing,
to something, to an iceberg. What
WOULD have let them see it sooner
was binoculars, and the film makes
it clear earlier that they weren't
issued any (which again is historically
accurate). - eskovan
- At dinner, just before she runs down the
deck and climbs over the rail, Rose is wearing
a black jet necklace that matches her earrings.
A few minutes later, when she climbs over
the rail, it is missing. Of course, it may
have fallen off as she ran down the deck...
- barbydoll
- Correction: If
you read the full script (that includes
the cut scenes) it says before Rose runs
on the boat deck, she's in her stateroom
and she rips off her necklace and takes
out her hair. That is why she doesn't
have hair up and she doesn't have a necklace
on. - Jo
- Not exactly a goof - but Rose's granddaughter
Lizzy asks her, "do you really believe
this is you" when looking at the drawing
of the young Rose in the beginning of the
movie - yet old Rose had a lot of photos of
herself looking pretty much the same all over
her house. Lizzy should have been familiar
with what Rose looked like in her youth, as
Lizzy and Rose lived together. - barbydoll
- During the scene where rose is trying to
call for help, she finds a whistle that looks
a lot like it was metal. She should have had
hell-a-frozen lips. - kyle
- I would just like to point out one thing.
I know that there would be no movie otherwise
but here goes. The person telling the story
is Rose. She is sitting watching the monitors
retelling the fateful night. How is it than,
that she knows everything that happened on
the boat. Even when she was not there. How
did she know that the butler guy punched Jack
in the stomach, or about how Cal picked up
the little girl to get on the lifeboat. I
am not trying to be too particular but I just
found it interesting. - Andyman
- Comment: Well
you see, the story is really being told
by James Cameron (3rd. person narrative)
and then it switches to old Rose (1st.
person narrative) There's a danger in
story telling when you switch like that.
Also, 1st. is better for detective story,
which Titanic is not. Thankfully, Cameron
pulled it off and it worked. I'd love
to see a sequel where Jack and Rose's
baby (they made love,no?) went and met
a girl on the Hinderburg, directed by
James himself. (ok, I'm a dreamer!!).
- Stanley
Coolbrick
- A color photograph of the Heart of the Ocean
Necklace wouldn't be possible if it was last
seen in 1912. - kyara
- Correction:
The photo of the "Heart of the Ocean"
diamond used by Bill Paxton's excavation
crew to identify the diamond is not a
color photo, but rather a sepia-tone black
& white photo, which appears to be
rather old as evidenced by the rough edges
and crinkled photo paper. It appears to
have been taken in a gallery, probably
prior to being purchased as an engagement
present for Rose, and later supposedly
lost in the sunken Titanic. You can see
the photo in the beginning of the movie
right after Bill Paxton's crew discovers
the nude portrait of young Rose wearing
the diamond...only the diamond. - Dave
& Tara
- Comment:
Though I agree
that the picture of the Heart of the
Ocean is Black and White, I read on
another Movie bloopers site (nicpickers.com)
that they actually did have color
photographs back then. I am not sure
of the date, but you might want to
check out the site. They do mention
that they did have color photography.
- Donica
- The lights of the ship are shown to go off
when the ship is whole, but they really went
off when the ship broke in two. - kyara
- Correction:
The lights on the ship did go off when
the ship was whole, not in two. They went
off just moments before it broke in half.
- Sailor
Elf
- I doubt that it would be possible for the
Heart of the Ocean Necklace to stay in Rose's
pocket the whole time, especially when she
and Jack were sucked underwater and they practically
were upside down. - kyara
- Comment: If
you remember, Jack and Rose are running
through the smoking room when they see
Mr. Andrews. He gives her the lifejacket.In
the next scene, Rose has the life jacket
on OVER the coat. It would therefore stay
in the pocket. - sean
- It just occurred to me when I read the goof
above (regarding the Heart of the Ocean) that
when Cal originally takes the necklace out
of the safe, he slips it in his tuxedo pocket,
not his overcoat pocket, which is of course
where Rose finds it. Again, maybe he transfers
it to his overcoat when he puts it on (which
is not shown on camera) but otherwise, I consider
it a "semi-goof". - barbydoll
- Correction:
If you remember correctly, Cal's bodyguard
slipped the necklace into Jack's coat
pocket, and he was wearing someone else's
overcoat he stole. That's why he was chained
in, because the security thought he had
stolen the necklace from Cal's room. -
ericans
- Comment:
That had nothing to do with the fact
that Cal put the diamond in the overcoat.
He put the diamond in his coat AFTER
they recovered it from Jack.
- I'm sure if this is considered a goof or
not, it's just that at the parts of the movie
when Rose and Jack and others are underwater
or at least halfway under, they seem to show
not sign of being uncomfortable in such severe
water temperatures. I'm not saying they should
come right and say they're cold, I just find
it hard to believe that they could stand and
breathe so well in it, not to mention run
through it so easily. - kyara
- When Rose and Jack on on deck the day after
Jack saved her from falling over the rail,
Rose sits down to look at his drawings that
he carries with him and the wind causes a
piece of her hair to come undone. In the next
scene, though, her hair is perfectly back
in place. - kyara
- When rose is looking at jacks drawings,
watch her hair. Every time they show her from
one side her bangs (I think they are) are
nice, curly, and smooth, then when they show
her from the other side, that same part of
her hair is sorta frizzy, messy, not smooth,
and barely even curled. - Doudie
- Comment: What
bangs? Rose doesn't have bangs. - kyara
- Comment:
I think what Doudie meant by rose's
bangs were those shorter whisps of
hair around the area of her face where
some people have bangs. - chip
- If Rose remarried after Jack died and had
grandchildren (maybe even great-grandchildren)
when she dies, why does she go and see Jack,
a guy she knew for at most a couple of days
rather than her late husband? I wonder how
he would feel about it. (Even though the story
is fictitious). - ktcu
- Ok, lets not get into
the sentimental part of the movie and
characters, please.
- Comment: But
one of Titanic mystery is that Rose is
not dead but sleeping, or is she? We don't
know, she could be merely dreaming, since
she just went through the whole story
of him and her. Keep in mind that she
was old but not necessary a sick woman.
I also think that Jack meant a world to
her since he liberated her from oppression
and he was the sweetest of all her memories.
- Stanley
Coolbrick
- Rose's eyes are brown when she is young
and they are blue when she is old. When you're
getting older your eyes decline their brilliance
but they can't change their color. My grand
ma still got her eyes brown. - cold
- Correction:
Rose's eyes are not brown when she is
young. There have been a few mistakes
with the eye color, though. Kate Winslet
has GREEN eyes and Gloria Stuart has blue
eyes. Mostly throughout the movie, Kate
has green eyes, but for a few select scenes
(i.e., the drawing) they are blue; in
the drawing scene, it's so the transition
could be accurate. James Cameron probably
just forgot to have her wear contacts--he
had enough on his mind as it was. Either
that, or they hoped nobody would notice.
- Jane
- When the Titanic first leaves port, it passes
a small sailboat; wouldn't the suction draw
the sailboat to the Titanic? A ship called
the New York(I think) was tied to the dock
that day, and because Titanic was so huge,
it broke the New York's mooring lines and
drew the ship toward Titanic! It just barely
missed though. Why wasn't this sailboat sucked
in? - Bob
- In the scene where Rose goes to get an axe
to break Jack free, a man tries to get her
to come into the elevator and starts to pull
her arm. At this point Rose punches his nose
but you can clearly see that his hand "bleeds"
before his nose does. - Ash
- There is a scene in this movie where they
are scanning the top of the boat from front
to back and you can see that there are computerized
people. If you look closely you can see a
computerized man with the shadow of a woman
with a fairly large hat on. - Ashley
- How come Old Rose needed a wheelchair to
get to her cabin but had no trouble walking
to the stern and climbing on a rail at the
end? - Bob F
- Comment: Well
if you also notice, when she was walking
through the house to get to the TV, she
had a cane. Maybe the wheelchair was just
easier for when she had to go far places
like for a helicopter landing place to
a room. - Carly
- It's hard to believe Rose cut Jack's handcuffs
in half with one blow when her practice swing
was so far off. - Bob F
- On the deck Jack asks Rose if she loves
Cal, and she takes the question as impudent
and improper. Then the next day in the gymnasium
Rose says, "I love Cal." without
being asked. - Bob F
- Comment: I
think Rose just had to say it because
she tried to get the point across to Jack
that she couldn't be with him. Also, maybe
she felt more comfortable with Jack than
she did the day before?? - kyara
- If the Heart of the Ocean was as heavy as
Old Rose mentions to Brock, how come Jack
didn't feel it being dropped into the pocket
of the overcoat by Lovejoy? - Bob
F
- Comment: I
just read Bob F's comment about Jack not
feeling the diamond being dropped in his
pocket and another aspect of this scene
just occurred to me. Cal sent Lovejoy
- with the diamond - to set Jack up by
dropping it in his pocket. However, Cal
couldn't have known Jack would be wearing
an overcoat. (In fact, Jack had just recently
"borrowed" it.) Jack mainly
wore shirt, suspenders and pants. Do we
assume Cal sent Lovejoy to stuff the diamond
in his pants pocket?? - barbydoll
- In the poker game, the Norwegians don't
speak a word of English, yet they react immediately
when Jack yells "Full house, boys."
without looking at his cards. - Bob
F
- Correction:
The Norwegians talk to each other in Norwegian
because that's the language that they're
most comfortable with, but they probably
do speak English, or else how could they
have started a poker game to begin with?
They probably also knew the terms, if
they play the game a lot, so if they heard
"full house" they could probably
figure it out. - Jane
- Correction:
Because I'm swedish I know that the two
persons playing cards with Jack are Swedes,
not Norwegians. They speak (very bad,
americanised) Swedish that got us a good
laugh over here... - Mia
- Also, Fabrizio says "You are betting
all our stuff" in the hand, yet Jack's
art portfolio is not on the table. - Bob
F
- When Jack and Fabrizio (or Jack and Rose)
are at the ship's prow, where are all the
other passengers? Wouldn't every kid on the
ship be up there fighting to get the best
view? - Bob F
- Comment: It's
a fact that there were signs saying that
no one was allowed in the bow or stern
area except crew members that was missing
in the movie. - Carly
- How is it that Rose knew all about Freud's
work but Bruce Ismay had never heard of him
("is he a passenger?") - Bob F
- Comment: I
see no reason why that appears odd. Rose
was very intelligent and Ismay didn't
appear to be. After all he built the Titanic,
though big and grand it may have been
it, it still was in some ways made poorly
and sank all because of his work. - kyara
- Addition:
Okay, okay, I goofed here too. When
Rose does talk about Freud's work
on male preoccupation, this work of
Freud's wasn't published until 1920,
so that was a goof all in all. - kyara
- What happened? Couldn't Cameron find more
people to pretend to be the lower class? There's
the part of the movie where the poor lady
is putting her two children to sleep while
the ship is sinking and everyone realizes
that she has given up hope of surviving and
has decided to let them die peacefully. Well
after everyone has already cried there eyes
out because of this there's a scene well afterwards
when some of the people are being helped on
to boats and this woman and her children can
be seen climbing on to them. A sudden change
of mind? I think not. - Christina
- Near the end of the movie when the boat
comes back for survivors, there are no stars
in front of them, but in back of them there
are. - artkid
- Near the end when Rose is lying on the piece
of wood singing and looking in the sky, you
notice that she still has her high heel shoes
on. But how the heck do shoes stay on someone's
feet during all that swimming and sinking
when there isn't even a strap on the shoe.
- Amanda
- Why everything else in the vault was falling
appart except the drawing? How is it possible
for a sheet of paper stay in one piece for
over 80 years? - picard
- Correction:
The drawing was enclosed in & protected
by a leather portfolio. Leather would
survive that long. - eskovan
- When the Old Rose is being interviewed at
the beginning of the movie by Brock Lovett,
she tell's him she was on the Titanic 84 years
ago. Well, if she's 104 years old then, 84
years ago on Titanic she would have been 20,
when Rose was supposed to be only 17. - kyara
- Correction:
You're 3 years off. Old Rose is only 101,
so the math is totally correct. If you
listen you at the start when the 2 guys
are walking towards the helicopter landing
place Lovett (is that his name?) clearly
says "101 next month" next month.
- Nefertiri
- I'm surprised no one has mentioned the most
obvious goof of all. Right at the beginning
of the film, the camera travels over the ship
and it transforms back to as it was on it's
maiden voyage... alrighty! BUT, why is it
that as the camera goes through the glass
doors into the ballroom, the steadicam operator
is clearly reflected in the glass! Is this
a gaffe? Or, as, I am told Cameron did a lot
of his own camerawork, a cameo by the director?
- Keffe
- Here's one I noticed quite some time ago.
Just after the ship has broken in two, it
levels out and begins to rise up again, preparing
for the final plunge. In the sequence of shots
as the ship rises up again, there is a quick
shot of people rolling down the deck again.
Someone bumps into one of the metal capstans
(secured to the deck for use in port) and
the capstan wobbles, as if made of rubber.
During filming, the capstans were made of
rubber on the deck to avoid injury, but surely
they could have kept this hidden in the film.
- Dr
Lecter
- When Leo wins a ticket for Titanic in the
pub - surprising, that he got on the Titanic
when EVERYBODY KNOWS THAT IT SUNK. Why would
he get on it, then? And why is he got and
Italian friend? - anonymous
- I had some faith in mankind
until now. I hope for your own sake that
you are kidding, otherwise you will have
major difficulties getting through life.
If you thought you were being funny, please
think again. In the future don't submit
"goofs" like that - I will ignore
them, like I ignored the other "goofs"
you submitted. "You've got the brains
of a four-year-old boy and I bet he was
glad to get rid of it." - Groucho
Marx
- When 1 of the people goes in to the lifeboat
he is wearing a digital watch. - vik
- The lift on the original Titanic only went
down to d deck but on the film it goes to
e deck. - vik
- OK, I'm pretty sure this counts as a goof.
At the very beginning of the movie there are
some shots of the Titanic's departure that
are made to look like actual film from 1912.
But later in the film when we see the Titanic
leaving, the same shots are used, only they're
flipped! - anonymous
- In titanic the Swedish guy says whos the
man to the redhead that he is armwrestling
with in the third class. I'm ninety percent
sure of this, where did he learn English!
- Terry
- Maybe he has been studying
English back home. Maybe his relatives
are English. Maybe he has lived in England
some time. I could go on and on.
- When the people are falling vertically off
of the deck and hitting the rope holders that
are metal they squish like a nerf soccer ball.
Watch for it, it is so obvious. - Terry
- After Jack and Rose begin to have sex, they
flash to a scene that shows the ship in the
water with the light in the front shining
out. They they show a scene with the camera
going past the tip if the stern. Where's the
light then??? Did it magically disappear??
- Carly
- When Cal is giving Rose the necklace in
the movie, he puts it around the neck, but
he lays the chain on the back of her shoulders.
If it's "a dreadful heavy thing",
then why doesn't it slip off?? I mean, it's
not connected. - Carly
- When Cal storms out of the room to say that
he had been robbed, he has a piece of bang
hanging down in front of his face. In the
next scene, his hair is fixed back perfectly.
- Carly
- When Brock Lovett is showing the Old Rose
things that were from her stateroom, the word
"stateroom" is heard, but if you
look at his mouth when you hear "stateroom",
oh that mouth aint moving!! - Carly
- Filtered cigarettes did not come out till
the mid-40s. - Carly
- When Rose is running to the back of the
ship when she is about to jump, you see her
shoes when she climbing over. But then, when
Jack is talking to her while he is taking
his shoes off, you see a clear shot of her
feet, without any shoes on. - Carly
- When Rose is looking through the key cabinet
to find the key to Jack's handcuffs, she doesn't
have a mole on either side of her face. But
she had that mole on the ride side of her
face the whole movie. Did it fall off in the
water or something?? Because it was missing
in a couple of scenes after that too. - Carly
- Ok, I could have sworn Murdoch shot himself
on the right side of the head. He saluted
with the left, shot with the right. But if
he shot with the right, why did also fall
towards the right instead of the left?? Shouldn't
the force of the bullet pushed him towards
the left when he fell?? But if you look, he's
falling towards the right. - Carly
- After Jack and Rose are finished running
from Cal, they corner themselves up in a corner.
They the scene flashes to a dining room where
you see the china floating on top of the water.
All the sudden there is a ruffle of water
out the middle of no where. Wanna know where
that ruffle came from?? It came from a crew
member!!!!! If you look carefully, you can
see the hand pop in and pop out on the right
side. But you have to be quick if you wanna
see it. - Carly
- Whether this is a goof or not I don't know.
I read somewhere that "The Unsinkable
Molly Brown" did not get that nickname
until after she died. But they mentioned it
in the movie. - Reddfoxx
- Correction:
Actually, it is the "old" Rose
who refers to Molly as The Unsinkable
Molly Brown. It is 1996 (or around then)
when "old" Rose is telling her
story. Molly Brown died in 1932, so this
would make sense that "old"
Rose was referring to her as Unsinkable.
:) - Jess
- This is a major goof; Cameron makes Molly
Brown appear like she is rejected by the women
on the ship, such as Rose's mother and friends,
but in truth, Molly Brown was a very sociable
person--even though they found her odd--and
was very popular among people. - kyara
- Correction:
She's only shown being derided by Rose's
mother behind her back. Although she's
'new money' she's not openly criticized
the way Jack is. - eskovan
- In the scene where Jack is dressed up in
the dining room where he was invited for saving
Rose, a waiter is putting caviar into a plate.
Before he puts it into the plate, you can
see something that looks like a pill or candy
on it already. - Amanda
- When Jack goes to find Rose in church, they
won't let Jack get into the church because
he's a "3rd class passenger". But
actually the church was open to everyone on
the Titanic including third class. - kyara
- When Jack and Rose leave the cargo area,
right before the two men see the iceberg,
Jack pushes the door and there's a slamming
noise. But if you look closer, the door actually
doesn't close. (VHS) - hope
- Toward the end, a 3rd class woman is telling
a story to her children, and the bed they're
on seems perfectly dry. Right after this,
the Titanic is shown and only the VERY top
of it is out of the water. Wouldn't someone
in third class be under water by then? (VHS)
- hope
- A lot of people say that Kate Winslett has
a visible tattoo on her arm when she is about
to jump off the back of the ship. It actually
is just a black bead hanging off of her dress.
- Khristine
- What's with keeping the necklace (for 84
years), then throwing it away, at though it
is some sort of homage to Jack? After all,
it came from Cal and therefore would not seem
to have any sentimental value. I should think
that she would have been glad to have gotten
rid of it earlier, perhaps in a more pragmatic
manner. - deepender
- Cal used an automatic weapon to shoot at
Jack And Rose. I don't know of any such type
of handgun available in 1912. - bigron
- Correction:
The shimmering pistol that Cal took from
his assistant and fired at Jack was apparently
one of the most famous designs in the
history of firearms: a Model 1911 .45
caliber semi-auto. However, according
to "Twentieth-Century Small Arms"
(c. 2001 by Chris McNab), various other
countries had already been using semi-auto
handguns in the early 1900's; and some
models originated even as far back as
the mid 1890's. I seem to recall that
Cal emptied all 7 rounds from the magazine,
too, so I'm glad they got that right.
Of course, in movies, only the villains
seem to ever run out of ammo anyway! -
cynic333
- When Jack and Rose are in the third class
party and the two guys are arm wrestling the
one on the farther side of the camera wins.
After this the other man proceeds to say best
two out of three. The other guy then says
u the man. Why does he want another match
if he already won? - ei
- The scene were rose and Jack were on that
piece of wood in the water If you look closely
you can see lights coming from beneath the
water. (TV) - steve
- I was told that the religious song sang
in the titanic (Sorry-can't remember the name
but I sure hear it in my head). Rose is in
church and Jack is trying to get in to talk
to her. Wasn't that song written years after
the sinking of the Titanic? Could be wrong
but figured if anybody knows the answer you
will-thx - sj
- Explanation:
I believe the song sj is referring to
is "Eternal Father Strong to Save."It
was originally a poem written by William
Whiting in 1860, and it was set to music
as a hymn for the Navy by Rev. John Dykes
in 1861. There wereabout 4 original verses,
but since then, verses have been added
(2 whole verses in 1937) and lines have
been revised (in 1915, 1937, 1948, 1955,
1960and 1966). So it really depends what
verses they are depicted as singing in
the movie.. - barbydoll
- Don't the writers of Titanic do their homework?
Jack Dawson's real name is Joseph Dawson and
he was one of those people that shoveled coal
under the ship but its still a great movie...
- sweet
- Correction:
While Joseph Dawson may have been an actual
person, Jack Dawson is a "FICTIONAL
CHARACTER!!!" (Plus, I'm sure that
there were several cases in which more
than two people on Titanic had the same
last name!) - Aine
- Boys, oft sailed about the North Atlantic
many a time und have err seen waters so still
as those when der Rose und Jack ver floating
about the sea. In der tub, ya - on der North
Atlantic - na. - Marv
- Correction:
All who survived the Titanic agreed that
the water was very, very smooth on the
night of the sinking("Like glass"
said one survivor. - Jhon
- If I remember correctly, when the Titanic
went down it was a moonless night. Where is
all that light coming from when they are in
the water? It would have been almost pitch
black out! I guess that wouldnt have made
a very interesting movie though, huh? - treehugger36
- In the scene where Jack is talking to Rose
on the way to dinner (in the snakepit), Molly
Brown approaches and asks "care to escort
a lady to dinner?" she puts her arm under
Jack's. Then Hockley calls Rose "sweetpea?"
when he says this, you can see Rose and Jack,
but Molly Brown is approaching Jack again!
(DVD) - i_just_noticed!
- Twice I recall the screenplay using what
I think is modern day slang. First, after
Jack rescues Rose, he asks Lovejoy for a cigarette
by saying, "Can I bum a smoke?"
Then, when Jack's teaching Rose to spit, he
advises: "You really have to hock it
back, get some body to it" Maybe people
spoke this way in 1912, but somehow I doubt
it... - Lynda
- Correction:
"to bum" (a smoke or sthlth.)
is attested since the mid 19th century.
- Kubus
- At the end, when Jack is Freezing and Dead,
how come his body sinks and no one else does?
Wassup with that? - dude
- Explanation:
The reason Jack sank and the other bodies
floated was b/c Jack didn't have a life-vest
on. - Paige
- Actually my granddaughter who is 11 caught
this goof: Cal's green safe is bigger in size
when Brock's crew brings it up than it was
in the 1912 scenes. (DVD) - Barbydoll
- I am really surprised that I haven't seen
this goof, but I admit that I only recently
spotted it. But when Mr. Andrews looks at
his pocket watch and corrects the time on
the clock on the mantle. After the first glass
drops you can see a string by his elbow that
is connected to the second glass and the string
disappears when the glass falls. (DVD) - Kate
- In one of the last scenes of the Titanic
sinking, a person falls from the end of the
boat, slides down the deck and hits a rope
tie thing. The rope tie thing bends and creases
clearly showing that it is made from foam.
(VHS) - meg
- Ok, when Jack yells "I'm the King of
the world!" and has his arms outstretched.
The ship is then scanned from the front to
back. Before you see the computerized captain
drinking his tea or whatever with Murdoch,
the shadows are pointing to the right of the
ship ok? After you see the computerized captain
then see all the way to the back of the ship,
the shadows are pointing to the back of the
ship. I found it funny! - Joel
- I'm surprised no one ever knew this one!
The Heart of the Ocean was never real! No
such thing! - Joel
- Correction:
In any interview EVER given James Cameron
openly admits the Heart of the Ocean was
fictious. Please keep your idiocy to yourself
next time of something that obvious. -
Beth
- This is the most obvious goof! James Cameron
was stupid in this! When Bride told the captain
that Carpathia was the only ship close, and
that it would take four hours to get there,
what ever happened to the California that
was about ten miles away from the Titanic
but would not respond? Duh! - Joel
- Correction:
They wired with the Marconi wireless to
any ships that were in the area. THEY
DID NOT KNOW that the Californian was
that close. The Californian NEVER RESPONDED.
Please do your research before you start
ASSuming things. A short note about the
Californian; the ship and it's Captain
became the villains in this whole disaster
as they were as close and yet did nothing
to assist. - Beth
- Comment:
I meant that the Californian was a
great deal less that four hours head
on. Mr Cameron just left that part
out and that was such a major deal
in history. You have to read a little
more on the goof. I did say it never
responded. You should read more into
things before you go shooting off
your mouth. Oh and research? The captain
on the Californian was not the villain.
He did not even know it was going
down! No, no, no, you should do some
research. - Joel
- (Continuity) In the first part Of the movie
The Docking bridge has a wheel and 2 engine
telegraphs and when the ship is sinking the
docking bridge has nothing on it. (VHS) -

- (Revealing mistakes) I can't believe noone
has saw this. I noticed it the first time.
At the end when Rose said she would never
let go, jack sinks to the water, yet you can
see bubbles coming out of his nose so he was
clearly not frozen to death. - Meg
- (Revealing mistakes) When looking at the
computerized rendering of the ship sinking
and the water spilling over the bulkheads,
the water is rendered to travel "up"
the slanted floor, and only levels to horizontal
when reaching the top of the bulkhead. This
is especially evident in the 8th section.
- Armis
- (Continuity) In the scene where Jack is
handcuffed to the pipe in the deck below,
the porthole is completely submerged, whereas
in the next shot, you can see the waterline
on the porthole. Did the Titanic rise a little
bit then sink during sinking. Come on James
Cameron, try and be a bit more careful when
making movies. - Ben Caine
- (Factual errors) Something always confused
me. When Old Rose says that 'six were saved
from the water, myself included', does she
mean from the one lifeboat that went back?
If she did, in real life four were saved and
if you include her, it would make five. -

- (Factual errors) John Jacob Astor is seen
near the end of the movie in the Grand Staircase.
In real life, he probably was hit by the forward
funnel when it collapsed for his body was
mangeled and covered in soot. - Sailor
