YouTube Movies Titanic 2
Written by ‘The Asylum’, Titanic II is not exactly a sequel to the movie, but more of a modern day remake of the true life disaster of the Titanic, which was originally depicted in the 1997 blockbuster of the same name. Titanic II however, combines the true life incident along with a vastly fictionalized plot to bring to the screen the same grandeur, story and drama. Released in 2010, it starred Shane Van Dyke in the lead role as the owner of the Titanic. Incidentally, he also wrote and directed the flick.
A rebuilt and re-christened ‘Titanic’, sets sail on the 100th anniversary of the initial voyage of the grandest ship in the world. Amidst widespread speculation and apprehensions, the owner Hayden Walsh (Shane Van Dyke) inaugurates the maiden voyage and the ship sets out to sea on the same course as that of the original ship. Along the way, a Tsunami throws an iceberg in the course of the titanic. The rest of the story is about the entailing losses, lives and rescues among a sinking ship and a massive sea storm.
The characters are all original and have no reference to any of the real life characters on the ship. Known for their recreated scripts, the Asylum and writer’s such as Shane Van Dyke have a line of such mockbusters to their credit. The other major roles include Marie Westbrook in her role as ‘Amy Paige’, Bruce Davison as ‘James Maine’ and D.C Douglas as ‘Capt. Will Howard’, the captain of the ill fated Titanic II. The movie tries to depict a different angle of the damage of the titanic and also a whole host of different scenarios and people. Also, the introduction of the tsunami and the fact that an iceberg comes along its path adds to the whole aura of differential fantasy.
The movie has been produced by David Micheal Latt with Paul Bales and David Rimawi executive producers. The story was written and directed by Shane Van Dyke. The visual effects were created by the team of Kevin Hand and Mark Kochinski and Megan Nicoll did the makeup. The movie on the whole manages to tap into the legend of the Titanic, her glory and her tragedy to add elements of the modern world to produce this mockbuster. The plot of the movie essentially strives to capture the real life tragedy and drama of the monumental event and bring it to life in the context of the modern world.
