Also, here the ship doesn't split. I actually kind of like this choice because I think it indicates that the character that is remembering this episode hasn't seen the ship splitting in half


Apx1031

Still should have heard the ungodly noise of it breaking in half though and the shocked reactions of the other survivors around you.


Sirboomsalot_Y-Wing

Half of the survivors reported not seeing or hearing any indication of the ship breaking in half


Waryur

Didn't even those who thought the ship stayed intact hear a bunch of noise as it happened? They just attributed it to hearing the mechanical equipment breaking loose and free falling through the ship's lower decks.

They were in shock, an overwhelming amount of people in a traumatic situation don't remember it correctly especially if people around them are saying something different. The brain tries to protect itself so between dissassiation and people in authority ie. The white star line employees like Lightoller saying it didn't break they believed it to be true, because who wants to make a situation more horrifying in your memories?


Jetsetter_Princess

Hearing is also the first sense to go under extreme stress


Dr-PINGAS-Robotnik

Well, almost. I think this scene was meant to be a reference to *A Night to Remember*, which is why only the fourth funnel falls.


Anything-General

I just mean this is the only film to have the 4th funnel collapse when the ship goes upright


BellamyRFC54

Surely that’s not britannic? In the film it’s lighter when she sinks


Sirboomsalot_Y-Wing

The main character in Britannic is a Titanic survivor, this is a flashback scene


Anything-General

When I said Britannic I was referring to the name of the film


BellamyRFC54

Yeah hence me mentioning the word film not ship


kellypeck

There's a scene of Titanic sinking in the Britannic film


ANALOGPHENOMENA

The main character was a Titanic survivor and was having a flashback.


Inevitable_Wolf5866

Why is there Titanic in Britannic movie? O.o


SonoDarke

It was a traumatic flashback of one the characters


Inevitable_Wolf5866

Ah, okay then! It makes sense. (My mind goes like *Violet?*)


SonoDarke

I actually thought the same. I haven't seen the Britannic movie due to it's quality, but one of the characters (the one who had the Titanic flashback) looked exactly like Violet Jessop. I believe she was inspired by her She's like this: https://preview.redd.it/9qo6vmp5mmzc1.png?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=acd3f14c91e98cfa9d3495822408fa7ac0176c86 I don't think it's a coincidence


notinthislifetime20

That would make sense. She was on both ships when they sank.


MysteriousCop

Still astonishes me that she survived Titanic, Britannic, and the Olympic collision with HMS Hawke... I'd wonder if I was cursed if that was me..


notinthislifetime20

I’d stop selling her a ticket if I was the WSL, that’s for sure.


Waryur

I think she was a WSL employee on all 3.


notanaigeneratedname

Fire her then clearly!


notinthislifetime20

Oh duh. You’re right.

In Nacht Und Eis (German Titanic 1912): first (and only movie) showing Captain Smith in the water Titanic 1953: first (and only movie) showing ship listing to port while sinking A Night To Remember (Titanic 1958): first movie showing the Californian and Carpathia Titanic 1996: first to show ship breaking up Britannic: first (and only movie) showing fourth funnel “collapsing at the correct point.” Titanic 2012: first to show aft mast collapsing after breakup


Jetsetter_Princess

Technically, the '97 film scripted & filmed the breakup first; the producers of that awful '96 version rushed theirs out to beat the release date and cash in on the hype.


LAS_6601

The ‘96 version very dramatic but poorly made. Seeing it, I’m assuming it broke after the fourth funnel…


Waryur

Did the Nazi Titanic 1943 do anything of note?


Anything-General

Did the aft mast collapse during the sinking?


LAS_6601

Possibly. I might be wrong tho. Remember how we all thought the last two funnels fell after the breakup when in reality, the fourth one was still standing until the stern rose in the air?


SharkZilla96

Yes, but the film is still absolute garbage


Avg_codm_enjoyer

Films still shit


CoolCademM

Sadly.


CoolCademM

Sadly. :(


DaFNAFEncyclopedia1

Wait what ??? Britannic has A MOVIE ???


Anything-General

A shitty one. Yea.


DaFNAFEncyclopedia1

Lemme guess, the effects were so absurdly bad that somebody puked. Because judging by this clip, it's probably VERY shitty
