Saturday Cinema with Fly: Titanic

This is a story about a man, Jack, who was obsessed with a stock, which, eventually lead to his downfall.

He was in love with it. He fought for it and eventually died for it. In the end, Jack, gave everything for his investment, including his life. The love that he shared with his investment was entirely one sided, which was made abundantly clear when he was denied access to the floating door (spoiler alert!), a door that could’ve easily been shared, but was selfishly hogged by his bitch of an investment.

When the weather was balmy, she was exceedingly accommodative. However, once the storms came, self-preservation triumphed the childish notions of love, which enabled her to leave Jack in the icy waters without the comforts of a floating door.

This is a classic Wall Street tale, one that teaches those to remain emotionally detached from their investments, otherwise, you’ll end up in the arctic waters, destined for an icy demise.

    What a twisted tale of woe! Whatever became of “I’m the king of the world!”?

      Great analogy, Fly.

      bw2, your quote refers to how investors felt when NFLX hit $130 less than a month after buying it at $110.

    “This is the story about a man, Jack…”

    Jack. Man.

    Ackman.

    Fly does Alan Turing (no homo) proud.

    Flick wasn’t bad, but the review was twice as good as the film.

    Are you serious? Sitting through this BS chick flick for seemingly eternity while my tailbone started to ache waiting for the iceberg was one of my worst cinema experiences ever. Only “Lost in Translation” can come close.
