Titanic? Are you kidding me? That shit is like the 90s verison of Avatar. Big hit, but no cultural impact. The other choices are fine, but Titanic? That is just a crappy romance film that dragged on and on until we get to the part that people actually want. The only worth Titanic has is being skewered by Cinema Sins

How about we put in The Avengers, Independence Day, or whatever dumb summer blockbuster.

To be fair, the film titanic pretty much re surged interest in the history of its sinking. Like if that film was never released I highly doubt most people would even know about it.
