The titanic came out when I was in middle school
Ouch — that hurt Sophia, I was "treated" to that movie by my now SO on my 50th birthday.
.....… I don’t really do TV or movies… such a waste of time.
Mostly I agree, but IMHO a little TV has its place as does newspapers (it is entertaining to see how the same event can be portrayed differently depending on the political slant of the paper) and plays, operas, ballet.
Some may think that people who enjoy ballet are fogeyish, and conservative, but my SO at the time, a ballet buff, treated me and her girlfriend on one of my birthdays in the late 70's to an outstanding dinner, an outstanding ballet with Mikhail Baryshnikov, and finally when we got home treated me to an outstanding performance with me, herself and her girlfriend. My SO was a dancer herself (not her day job) but not ballet as she was to heavy for ballet — did you know that dancers are very flexible — oh they are.
As far as opera, not for everyone but take a look at Carmen — you can get a version on youtube and you will immediately recognize the music.
A little amount TV is useful every day is useful in getting opinions on whats happening in the world. Most of my watching is at the gym doing the aerobic part of my workout. Some of the TCM can be entertaining — I just watched River's edge (1986),a very strange film with a very young Keanu Reeves playing a dramatic role playing a teenager — nothing like his later action films (Wick, Matrix).
@trader1 I enjoyed the Bond films during the 60's but lost interest in the later ones and haven't seen any of them.
