Director James Cameron‘s 1997 mega-hit Titanic has become a relevant talking point in the industry once again, though admittedly not for the most noble reasons. The infamous vessel after which the Oscar-winning film is named entered the public eye again following the viral story that a submarine owned by Oceangate Expeditions went missing in late June during a supposedly routine tour to the ruins of the Titanic. Interest in Cameron’s filmography has also gone up after the release of Avatar: The Way of Water. Regardless of the intent, the 1997 Best Picture-winning film, Titanic, has once again had a spike in popularity, with Netflix “coincidentally” scooping up the streaming rights to the film just days after the Oceangate disaster.
