Julian Fellowes Titanic 2012 Trailer 2

[KSUgrad79]

Will this be playing in the US at all? Will we get a chance to see it? I desperately hope so. I noticed the actress who plays the evil Vera Bates on "Downton Abbey" is in this. Fascinating. Now I REALLY want to see it!

[jPod07]

@KSUgrad79 ABC has bought the rights to the mini-series, but they're still unsure whether or not they'll air it in April or May because of the fierce competition between Cameron's 3D release...

[envats]

I love the piano part at 1:20.

[ADifferentKindofFine]

the 2 people who hit the dislike button need to hop off of the face of the earth.

[jPod07]

@ADifferentKindofFine They suspiciously look like Catholics...

[Kylecreagh123]

ya do you know anything on the titanic, I do, I'm the expert on it

[Kylecreagh123]

cant wait till it comes out

[TheWannaBeNerd1912]

@Kylecreagh123 Wanna know something EPIC!

It Doesn't come out...YOU WATCH IT ON TV xD

[Efrasios]

Looking forward to seeing this, my relative who died was a second class passenger so finally a movie will be showing 2nd class life instead of only focusing on 1st and 3rd!!!

[jimjam25411]

Is it just me or did anyone else see Mr. Bates' crazy-ass wife??

[shpirdonkle]

@jimjam25411 You're right it is his crazy wife.... She seems to be part of the 1st class....

[TITANIC2012TVSERIES]

@shpirdonkle She's in Second Class.

[kingofcouture1996]

I have a bad feeling that all in all i am not going to like this version.Just from a short glance i think the sets and costumes are bland,simple and innacurate,the acting looks decent enough But when you are taking on TITANIC you need more than a good script and acting.

[jPod07]

@kingofcouture1996 Not really... a strong storyline and acting goes a long way. 

[kingofcouture1996]

@jPod07 yes it does,im saying when all elements come together including accuracy it makes for an excellent Tv Series.

[jPod07]

@kingofcouture1996 James Cameron's film was intended to be a Hollywood blockbuster with the budget of $200 million. Julian Fellowes' version is intended to be a television drama with the budget of $15.4 million. You can't expect ITV to spend $200 million on a television drama, right? Every television drama with special effects have a budget, but it's about the storyline and characters that makes it watchable.

[kingofcouture1996]

@jPod07 Well that may be,but i am just saying that accuracy is a huge thing for Titanic enthusiasts,especially when there are many ficticious characters.I think that in this show titanic is the back-drop not the focus.

[jPod07]

@kingofcouture1996 You're right about accuracy, but Titanic will focus on the political, religious, race and class conflicts of that era which will give us an insight to the world of 1912. There's a lot of historical characters that'll be introduced into this series.. the Duff Gordons, Countess of Rothes, Allisons, Thayers, Wideners, Dorothy Gibson ect. It'll also focus on the Second Class passengers, Officers, Waiters, Stewards, Maids, Valets, Stokers, Engineers, Pursers ect.

[kingofcouture1996]

@jPod07 I am simply stating my opinion and i will decide if i like it or not.We shall see

[jPod07]

@kingofcouture1996 Take a look at the new show 'Once Upon A Time', the special effects aren't Hollywood blockbuster material, but the storyline and the characters are strong and that's what matters. It's already 10 episodes into its run and it's already been nominated for the best TV Drama. Anyways, my point being is.. Julian Fellowes is a brilliant writer, given the international success of Downton Abbey. He's used the same format in Titanic as he did in Downton Abbey.

[ArchieKennedyFan]

I was quite surprised when I first saw this advert on TV!

[LikeMulderAndScully]

All I'm saying is; there BETTER be someone named Patrick Crawley mentioned in this.

[jPod07]

@LikeMulderAndScully Titanic and Downton Abbey won't have any connection whatsoever. Both are two completely different dramas.

[LikeMulderAndScully]

@jPod07 Joke.

[saltfleetstevie]

Anyone know the piece of music that start at 1:22?

[phutch77]

@saltfleetstevie It's called What Must Be Done by Nick Cave. From "The Assassination of Jesse James". Hope that helps

[MrDMTVProductionz]

Wow...looks epic

[model1976]

Titanic movies have been made with 10-15 year intervals since the sinking (1929, 1943, 1953, 1958, 1979, 1996, 1997) so this is expected.

[jPod07]

@model1976 You forgot 'Saved from the Titanic'

[SailorxVenus]

this is going to be the saddest thing I'll ever watch...

[TKManUTD1989]

wtf are jack and rose(?)

[jPod07]

@TKManUTD1989 Don't be naive.

[shushkka1]

@TKManUTD1989 Jack is somewhere on the seabed and Rose is in heaven with his phantom.

[faremonkeylover]

... Why make this?

[jPod07]

@faremonkeylover why make a bunch of alien movies?

[mongomondomongo]

@faremonkeylover It's the 100th anniversary of the sinking

[oliverbod]

this is just going to be compared to the film, and I feel it's not going to win that battle!

[jPod07]

@oliverbod James Cameron's film and Julian Fellowes' television drama have two different storylines... but based on the same tragedy.

[shushkka1]

At 1:38 of the trailer the Titanic's hull is almost completely submerged, even the stern. The list is TOO shallow. From this perspective we can't see the list to port BUT we can see rockets being fired form the stern which is inaccurate.

After all, it's just a trailer. I think they'll correct those mistakes. The special effects are brilliant though. In comparison with those from the mini-series Titanic by R. Liberman they are breath-taking.

[jPod07]

@shushkka1 You're right about that. I think since the Titanic is listing to port, it's creating that shallow effect. I think once we watch the series, we'll get a better view of what's really happening. Yes, I noticed that too. I hope they'll change that. Julian Fellowes should know that never happened.. anyone would know that. Yes, I was completely amazed at how great the special effects are for this mini-series. The 1996 mini-series had some good effects, but everything else was fake.

[shushkka1]

@jPod07 I think the 1996 mini-series had very bad effects. But I liked this film before.

This mini-series is a real encyclopedia of factual mistakes.

[shushkka1]

Really? I didn't notice that. At what minute in trailer can I see it?

I've always wondered why in all the films about the Titanic the list to port wasn't shown.

I hope we'll also see the slight pitching of the ship as it's sailing before the disaster because in Cameron's version the Titanic is sliding on the water as if it's moving on a railway track. Even the line of the horizon remains at the same level.

[jPod07]

@shushkka1 At 1:26 you can see the windows tilting to the port side. You can also see it in a few shots in the original teaser trailer. I think they used one of the newer theories of the Titanic sinking in a shallow angle.

What do you mean of a slight pitching before the disaster? I never heard about that before...

[shushkka1]

@jPod07 Well. I'm not sure how to put it in English but I'll try. When any ship is moving it's slightly tossing on the waves. I know that the 4 days before the disaster the sea had been calm but I think a slight tossing was there anyway)

I read that a passenger from the first class was suffering the sea-sick so much that he couldn,t sleep at night. And when he was as lucky as to fall asleep Titanic hit the iceberg and his wife didn't want to wake him up at first.

[jPod07]

@shushkka1 Most people probably get sea-sick from the movement of the ship itself. It's like getting car-sick. Which passenger was that got sick?

[shushkka1]

@jPod07 Arthur Rhyerson.

[eviemillionaire]

Wow, a piece from Henry Jackman's X-Men: First Class score at the beginning, totally pulled me into the trailer.

[shushkka1]

Why do they show the ship's listing at such a low angle? The testimony says that the stern rose up at a height of a twenty-storey building. Besides, when Titanic was sinking it was listing heavily on the bow and the portside.

[MrRocha90]

@shushkka1 This is just a trailer, not the final, finished product. I understand what you mean though. When it airs on TV we'll see what they do. They'll show it on a high angle

[jPod07]

@shushkka1 We see the Titanic listing heavily to the portside in the mini-series.It shows in the trailer.

[Cluedokid25]

@shushkka1

Which testimony said this?

[OBrasilo]

@shushkka1 According to 2005 research presented on the History Channel, the Titanic might have sunk at a lower angle than originally thought. Even the originally thought of angle though was about 20 to 30 degrees and not the 45 degrees shown in the 1997 movie. Note this is before the break-up. After the break-up, the angle increased steeply but this trailer does not show that stage of the sinking.

[shushkka1]

@OBrasilo No one will ever know how the Titanic actually sank. Many researches can be done, but they can't be 100 % accurate. Even the survivors' testimonies were very controversial. Some said there hadn't been a break-up, some said there had been an explosion and a break-up. Lorence Bisley said that the ship was rising as high as a 20-storey building without any indication on an explosion. There was no moon that night and it was pitch dark. Sad but true, we'll never know how it was.

[shushkka1]

The music with the piano is so emotional

[PVGUK]

I just hope its accurate unlike the Cameron Movie. Does look good tho.

[Nicomurgia]

Wow! At 1:13, the B & C Deck first class corridors are well reproduced, with their mouldings hiding the pipes on the overhead, as they were found in the Haltwhistle factory! It's the first time EVER a movie about Titanic makes an exact replica of these corridors! Even Cameron didn't get it right^^

[tamenga88]

They should really make a miniseries about "The Battle of Jutland"...

Oh Wait Modeling 151 British and 99 German warships in 3d would be a time-consuming nightmare.

[zoics1]

OMG! I wonder how this one is going to end =/

[envats]

Looks good! :-)

[MrRocha90]

I Can't wait!!!! What an awesome trailer! Looks amazing! :)

[StMustaine]

A mini-series. MUST WATCH THIS.

[CeliaRees]

Amazing. In the "sad part" you can just feel a tragedy!

[SIMcrazy07]

What was the music at the end of the trailer? Amazing trailer!

[jPod07]

@SIMcrazy07 It's an original score by Jonathan Goldsmith.

[krugerfuchs]

hope he does a better job then cameron

[jPod07]

@krugerfuchs I think the storyline will be much better than Cameron's film as there are three sixty-minute episodes to tell the stories of each point of view from a different perspective of the characters we're following and then see all their stories drawn together in an explosive climax in the fourth and final episode.

[krugerfuchs]

@jPod07 it should be good he did a good job on that downtown show

[jPod07]

@krugerfuchs Agreed! Judging by the trailer, I think we're instored for an emotional, suspenseful mini-series. It bares a lot like Downton Abbey.. except on the Titanic.. which is perfect!!

[jPod07]

I think the special effects are great for a television drama on a $15.4 million budget. It's definitely better than the sneak peak that we saw in October. I think we're stored for a great television drama!
