All Aboard, Once More...

“You jump, I jump”. Even the mere mention of the iconic phrase immediately brings forward images of Titanic. Now, 15 years after its original release, we can once again re-live it in 3D. Re-released in conjunction with the 100th anniversary of the legendary ship’s sinking, director James Cameron went to great lengths to ensure that the Titanic 3D's conversion is top-notch. And top-notch it sure is.

A winner of eleven Oscars and three Grammys, the love story of a boy and a girl aboard an ill-fated vessel needs no introduction. Watching it again after all these years immediately washes away any doubt to why it was universally acclaimed. Despite being a decade and a half old, Titanic is every bit as epic as the day it left port.

Seeing it in 3D added a whole new dimension to the experience. The Titanic’s hallways have depth, its inner workings come alive and the tragic ending seemed all too real.

You feel like you’re on the ship, with her passengers, sharing their fate. All this seems amazing, given the fact that the film wasn’t intended to be in the third dimension.

If you liked it the first time (or fourth or fifth), it is certainly worth boarding Titanic again to re-live the magic in 3D. And for those who haven’t seen it on the big screen, what are you waiting for?

And in case you’re wondering – no, you won’t be seeing Jack draw Rose like one of his French girls in 3D.
