I would say not until they have made everything they can on the theater circuit both domestic and international and they are still going strong on both counts! Remember, it has only been in theaters a little over a month(here)and I believe it still has a long way to go. It will be out eventually and we can all enjoy it all over again..and again...and again!

Not for a long time. I went for the fourth time today and the tickets were all sold out. And there were two screens. Then, I went to another theater, and the guy told me mine was the last ticket. I don't think the video would come out until late this year.

Response to When will it come out?

I agree with one of the answers, it certainly won't be out until after Labor Day. When it does come out, buy the "director's cut." James Cameron has indicated that such a version will be released. This will be the full-length version shown in theaters, but with twenty, plus minutes of footage cut before final release. Apparently several scenes that took place in the radio room were entirely cut because Cameron felt (after screening them) that the technical stuff (radio messages sent to passengers along with several warnings of icebergs in the area) got in the way of the love story, Incidentally, if you have a laser disc player, buy the disc--the picture and sound are far superior to the vcr format.

AHHH!! I just read on C2T that since Titanic is doing so well in theaters, they won't be releasing it on video until around Christmas!!! : ( grrrr... maybe if we all stop going to see it in theaters, it will come out on video quicker... : ) (just kidding : )

I saw a page that said that they had a relative in the business and they know first hand from them that it will be coming out in June...Nut I do not think that is possible..It 's March and it is still in theaters. June is only 3 months away...Oh well we will just have to wait and see.

I heard that it will NOT be released in time for Christmas. I heard January, 1999!
