I always love it when people refer to “this ending” or “this scene” as if everyone is supposed to know what this blurry still is supposed to be from. Even if it was a video, that still doesn’t tell me what it’s from.

Edit: to all the haters…

Saying 'what kind of an idiot doesn't know about the Yellowstone supervolcano' is so much more boring than telling someone about the Yellowstone supervolcano for the first time.

It's a frame from near the end of my sex tape.

Never seen it. What happened in this scene?

[–] Hossenfeffer@feddit.uk 4 points 5 hours ago

The big boat sinks.

[–] Aqarius@lemmy.world 96 points 22 hours ago* (last edited 22 hours ago) (4 children)

The framing device for the whole movie is that they're searching the wreck to find a priceless necklace, and bring along an old woman, who had it when the ship sank, to help them. She then tells them her story, moves them into abandoning the search, and in the end it's revealed she had it the whole time when she throws it overboard.

[–] BuboScandiacus@mander.xyz 63 points 22 hours ago

Thanks for the actual explanation without being condescending or demeaning! I appreciate it

I had no idea what I was looking at, then you writing this instantly made me realize the scene.

So yeah, I think the commenter’s got a point

Anyone whose seen it knows where it’s from. It’s the final scene from James Cameron’s Titanic in which Rose throws the infamous jewel into the ocean.

[–] Ilovethebomb@sh.itjust.works 17 points 16 hours ago (2 children)

Anyone whose seen it

See, that's where it all falls over.

Nah i've seen it atleast twice and it took me a while to have guessed titanic. Still needed the comments to confirm it. Can't remember jewel being thrown away at all

[–] la508@lemmy.world 7 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

Exactly the same as me. The film's 30 years old, and I've definitely seen it, but probably not in the last 20 years or more. I just about recognised it was Rose but haven't got a fucking scooby what she does at the end of the film. I thought it ended with her sat on the piece of wood watching Jack sink.

[–] arockinyourshoe@lemmy.world 2 points 7 hours ago

Watched it a couple months ago with my wife. She drops the jewel into the ocean above the wreckage, then goes back home, where we see a bunch of pictures across her dresser showing that she had an adventurous and fulfilling life, inspired by Jack's last words to her.

I saw the movie and had no idea. Although it was well over twenty years ago and I was more interested in the gal I was sitting next to than the movie.

If you want a recap here's a nice summary of the important bits https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=saZcHBY5vyI

The 46 carat Hope Diamond on which the fictional Heart of the Ocean is based, is estimated at $200 - $300 million today.

The white gold and zirconia prop used in the movie cost around $8,000 but if it were real at 56 carats, it would be valued at more than twice what the Hope Diamond is. Leave it up to Hollywood to invent fictional jewelry and then assign a value it.

Although, since the diving vessel is directly on top of where the heavy metal necklace would conceivably fall, it might not take too long to locate it on the sea floor:

The original search area for the Titanic was about 150 square miles, and the Titanic is only about 90 feet wide. So, for every Titanic width-sized object, you would need to search about 1.32 million positions.

If the search area for the necklace were 1/4 square mile to allow for drift, and the necklace is effectively 4 inches wide, you would only need to search about 435,000 necklace-width positions. Although, being directly over the Titanic wreck could hamper metal detecting. It would be pretty ironic if the necklace fell back on to the deck of the wreck.

So, suck on that ya old entitled bitch!
