Titanic and Dexter

So last night I decided to watch Titanic after someone recently told me that they watched it. It had been a while since I had it I had to admit that it was about I watch it again. This was the last film James Cameron had done before Avatar. And it's crazy he had back to back billion dollar grossing films. In my personal opinion, Titanic was the better of two. Avatar's special effects and animation were surreal, but the plot was too recycled. So I am not looking forward to the two upcoming sequels of Avatar in the works. Anyways, back to the point of business, Titanic. This was the film that changed the use of CGI animation and enhanced the special effect spectrum. Leonardo DiCaprio and Kate Winslet did a fantastic job, as well as Kathy Bates as "The Unsinkable Molly Brown." This tragic event in history was portrayed in a very real manner with the infusion of love affair that bloomed between Jack and Rose. This film is just phenomenal and upon last nights viewing I had to place it in my top 10, with Inception being the only other film I know for a fact is in my Top 10. The camera work and the overall re-creation of the Titanic is just amazing. The re-enactment of the ship going down was incredible. I cannot forget the musical score, which helped lead the emotional feelings risen in the film. I just love this film, and if it has been awhile for you since the last time you watched it, set aside 3 hours and watch it soon. Now on to last nights episode of Dexter. It was phenomenal. The acting by Michael C. Hall was amazing as Dexter continued to deal with realities of his loss, as well as a confidant who helps Lumen through her issues. Deb on the other hand had to deal with other issues with her job and love affair. I think this was probably Jennifer Carpenter's best acting episode of the series. I just urge anyone who has not seen the show to watch it. It is so addicting, and you find it odd that you're rooting for a serial killer. I don't want to spoil the show, so I will just conclude by saying the writing, along with the acting of Michael C. Hall above others, is what creates the show. Well I think that's enough rambling on ,so so long to all, may your dreams come true.
