It would have been a better movie had they done it more from the perspective of the crew, instead of turning it into a chick flick.

OMG, Titanic was an insult to the senses.

I kept waiting for them to trot out something like a time machine, an alien, nazis, or just have someone dying of cancer.

It would not have made the movie any more lame or unbelievable than it already was.

Okay, I can be a bit harsh, but gay, cyborg, nazi zombies from outer space suddenly appearing on the ship to eat Leo's brain would have been an improvement.

You've got that right. Same thing with Pearl Harbor.

I saw the Pearl Harbor teaser in the movie theater. It was a gorgeous sequence of Jap planes launching from carriers, breaking through cloud cover, and dive bombing a battleship. The perspective for the final scene was a chase view of a bomb being dropped. The special effects were outstanding, and you could see the crew scattering over the deck as the bomb reached its target.

When I went to the theater 4 months later, all I got was a bunch of pansies cast as pilots, some crass hags cast as "hero nurses", and a 2 hour soap opera with a few battle scenes tossed in at the end.

Pearl Harbor was the most dissapointing movie ever filmed. Period.
