This video is another example of user generated content. This video was made by a user called In Depth Perception and what this user did was create an alternative ending to the movie Titanic. The original author of the Titanic ended off with Rose, one of the main characters, falling in love with a lower-class male while her family tries to tear them apart, while aboard the Titanic. In the end, as we all know the Titanic ended up sinking and most of the upper-class people got on rescue boats to safety while most lower-class ended up dying while the ship was sinking or surviving the ships sinking and dying from how cold the oceans water was. But Rose stayed with Jack, the lower-class boy she fell in love with, while the rest of her family got on the rescue boats and while they both made it of the ship safely only Rose survived while Jack died from the freezing water. In the end Rose ended up growing old only having been in love with Jack and never any other man.In this video however, the creator made a new ending where Rose and Jack both survive the sinking of the Titanic, grow old together, have kids and live happily ever after.


I personally favor the original ending of this movie because movies nowadays are a little too predictable. The creator of this video went with the more predictable ending of the movie where the two lovers survive the sinking of the Titanic, grow old together, have kids and live a happily ever after kind of life. I think if this version of the ending was produced by traditional media people would have different views on the movie. The fact that the ending wasn't so happy might have grabbed the interest of the public more.
