James Cameron's Titanic was the highest grossing movie of all time for 12 years before being dethroned by his next film Avatar. But Titanic was actually a surprise box office hit. It was expected to be the biggest flop since Waterworld as it became the most expensive film of all time. It was being destroyed in the press way before its release, being written off as a failure. The delays, production issues and the over-inflated budget were all very public. 20 hour work days, cast and crew injuries, and their food getting contaminated were just some of the issues in this troublesome production.

In this video we'll be going over how Titanic proved everyone, especially the critics and news sites, wrong. Starting with the initial dives to the real Titanic and up to the theatrical release and VHS sales. With how successful Titanic was, it's easy to overlook the difficulties and pessimism involved to get there. Many had to experience the worst of James Cameron on set to get there with no bathroom breaks and the constant yelling, earning him the title "scariest man in Hollywood". But no-one had it worse from start to finish than James Cameron himself.
