Subject: Who wants to sail on Titanic II?

Written By: Mat1991 on 02/27/13 at 2:58 am

Yes, there's an actual ship being built called Titanic II. I'd like to have my next epic romance aboard this ship.  :)

Who needs the Titanic when you can go aboard the Queen Mary?  We stayed on her for a couple of nights and had a great time.  The best part is she never leaves port.  :)

Boy, there's a ship that's gonna have some bad juju right out of the dock.

Nevertheless I woldn't mind tempting fate on a transatlantic cruise.  I'd pack a full complement of Steampunk attire and an inflatable raft.  :P

Yes...eccentric Aussie Billionaire Clive Palmer is going to reconstruct this ship. He is loathe to say thet this ship will be unsinkable. He said anything will sink if you put a hole in it!

Saw a tongue-in-cheek tweet in the story about a "Hindenburg II." If they guy builds it, is he going to put swastikas on the tail fins like the original?  ::)

Nice: For those of you who don't know, Keith Moon (drummer at the time for "The Who" ) said that about "Led Zeppelin"

She was all for herself.  She had an older man, too.  Remember the fiance at the beginning?  Don't do it, Howard.  She will sink you. :D

I do!

I am fascinated with the original disaster (not the movie) and have been so for many years.

I don't know if I will have the opportunity to sail on the Titanic II though.

My Jakes birthday is April 15.  Since seeing the the movie the Titanic been an obsession with him, I think visions of Kate have more than entered into that fantasy.

I remember they actually wanted to build something like that already in the late 90s/early 00s; to be completed it in 2002.

No way I'd want to be on Titanic II on her maiden voyage.

If she makes it, I'd be more than glad to set sail on her after that.
