Happy Hump Day, FoCers! If you're anxious for the weekend, never fear, it'll soon be here! The rain returned today and for some reason the landscaper guy decided that since I hadn't ventured out to pick up my newspaper, he should just throw it in a debris pile in my back yard. ACK! Fortunately, the plastic held up and I was able to retrieve it before it got completely soggy. Bother! Anyway, onward to the question at hand: Does 'Titanic' boast the highest box office take in movie history worldwide? I'm amazed that none of you FoCers asked which version of Titanic the Calendar Cameramen were talking about! After all there have been several versions, including one from 1953 starring Barbara Stanwyck, Clifton Webb, and Robert Wagner! Catherine Zeta-Jones (now Douglas) and Peter Gallagher starred in a TV version in 1996 and there's a German version (pretty much full of Nazi propoganda from the sound of it) made in 1943. Anyway, it's a moot point because of COURSE they meant this version!
Here's what you said: Fact | 15 | Crap | 8 | "Cract" | Costacat | Some interesting fake facts up there trying to convince everyone that other movies hold the title. The Calendar Cameramen have this to say about that: It's FACT! Released in 1997, 'Titanic' thrilled audiences with its dramatic tale of two lovers (Leonardo DiCaprio and Kate Winslet) trapped aboard the ill-fated RMS Titanic on its maiden voyage in 1912. The movie also won 11 Academy Awards in 1998, including Best Picture. My favorite thing about the movie is the way they blended scenes of the actual wreckage in with the sets. It was really amazing to watch. Okay, onward!
Forty-seven James Bond movies have been made since the 1960s. FACT or CRAP? You decide!

Crap. I think it's considerably less than that. Maybe half that amount?

on the Titanic one before, BOAST must be the key word. because it doesn't ACTUALLY have the highest. i can 'boast' about anything but that doesn't make it true! LOL
