Did anyone else see the massively bad Britannic movie on FOX/FAMILY channel tonight?

It looked as if people sat around watching Cameron's film and then made a REALLY bad imitaion. In addition, there were many, many historical errors.

Any of my fellow history fans still here and care to comment?

Hello Thomas: This had to be the worst since "Raise the Titanic" (and that had much better special effects). I actually could not pay much attention as I was doing other things but what I saw was horrible. What is it about film makers that makes them want to inject a ludicrous story with a historical backround where the historical part of it would be more than enough to hold the interest of an audience? A jar of ether destroying the Britannic? Give me a break! I'm glad I didn't waste video tape on that one!

Regards, Peter
