That's the best version by far for me. Terminator, Aliens & The Abyss are still great though of course:)
A night to remember is definitely the best version of the titanic story on film - good call - remember seeing it for the first time at home when I was ten off sick from school with man flu. Oh the nostalgia

The most fascinating part about the titanic up imo:
quote:
Possibly contributing to the disaster was Titanic's triple-screw engine configuration, which had reversible reciprocating steam engines driving the two outboard propellers, and a non-reversible steam turbine driving the centre propeller. According to Fourth Officer Joseph Boxhall, who came onto the bridge just after the collision, First Officer Murdoch had set the engine room telegraph to reverse the engines to avoid the iceberg,[59] but because the centre turbine could not reverse during the "full speed astern" manoeuvre, it and the centre propeller, positioned directly forward of the ship's rudder, were simply stopped. This greatly reduced the rudder's effectiveness, thus handicapping the turning ability of the ship. Had Murdoch simply turned the ship while maintaining her forward speed, Titanic might have missed the iceberg with metres to spare.[60]
On top of that, if they would've just hit the thing head on it wouldn't have sank either. A head on collision would've just flooded the first compartment but because of the weakened turning the berg just raked along side of the ship flooding 5 compartments. Wtf Murdoch if you would've done nothing the ship wouldn't have sank.

Shouldn't have had uncle Albert skippering it!

anyone recall the last classic trance movie made in 2002?

GO?

^it could be that. Its a story about a group of clubbers who declared trance was declining and thought about a hobbie change by exploring the film industry

But that was the year tiesto, michael jordan of trance, dropped traffic. wasn't that when fans started being ambivalent about tiesto? everyone was raving about his 2002 set at dutch dimension and then people started having mixed feelings about him the year after.

System-J was right.
People will always complain about how Trance is changing. It's somewhat of a bias, and it's somewhat become some sort of a fad to dislike new Trance at some point. We have people on this forum who claim they're all old school and a bag of chips but they still have an undefined, non-innovating taste. Of course that is subjective.
Back to the point though...
During 1990-1996, there were probably no complaints about Trance, probably because this was the classic era.
During 1997-2001, Trance shifted from classic to epic, euphoric, anthem, progressive, uplifting, etc and etc. The Trance listeners from 1990-1996 era are usually the ones to complain about the 97-2001 era. And the 97-2001 era listeners are more likely to complain about post 2002-2011.
And then the 90-96 era are likely to complain about all eras coming forth xD

It's funny how a thread about the declining state of trance got hijacked into a thread about Titanic.
Because they both sunk.

03 was the last decent year in my down to earth opinion. White room is a track that followed the following year. Tom colontonio will make a few rolls before he ever makes a good joint.

Well yeah, but everything in life is subjective isn't it? you have to draw the line somewhere. A classic to me is a track that's still relevant today. It still talks to people, regardless of it's age or production quality.
Titanic is a classic film - i find it abhorrent, but it's a box office best seller & will remain relevant until the end of time.
I can't deny the flattering effects of nostalgia, but it can't explain away someones personal taste.
/\ that was composed 70 years before i was born, yet it's 1 of my favourite pieces of music. It moves me in a way nostalgia never will.
I'm hitting that hay - all this trance philosophising has gone to my head:toothless
I absolutely knew it was classic music even before i clicked the link. Im with System-J this time.

That's about right. One usually starts complaining the state of trance when he/she starts listening or discover other music styles or other electronic varieties the same time his old taste in trance lays dormant. But he will usually bring back his/hers old memories by for example listening to old Oakey EM sets from 1999 from time to time.
That hopefully happens when you grow up, gets wiser and your tastes broaden.
