Titanic III

The historic boat The Titanic is making it’s come back. In 2022 or 2021 the new replica of The Titanic should be ready to set sail. Clive Palmer, an Australian businessman had stated in September this year that The Titanic will be making its return and that this time the boat will really be indestructible. Technically this should be called The Titanic IIII because the original Titanic had two twin boats named Olympic and The Britannic. Olympic wasn’t actually built to set sail but The Britannic was and it sunk just like the original.  The idea of this replica was first thought of in 2012 but after a dispute with the Chinese government it was put to a stop in 2015. However we now have the money and are able to build the ship. The ship is currently in China where it is being built. The boat will set start out in China, then to Dubai, and lastly England. Though this ship is built as a replica a few things have been changed. For instance it can hold more people than the original. The new ship can hold 2,400 passengers plus a 900 person crew. The new boat is thirteen feet wider than the original to increase stability. Not to mention the new boat is equipped with updated navigation features and special precautions.

  •  I think it would be a very cool experience to go on the titanic but I’m not sure if I would want to. I think that this was a great idea of making a titanic just because of  how many people are going to want to go on it. I think that the person that thought of this probably was thinking that they could make a lot of money in the end and it was a very good boat at the time and still is today. 

    • I agree that the person who came up with this idea was probably focused most on the money rather than a genuine interest in the history of the Titanic and wanting to replicate it for that purpose, especially because the movie is somewhat popular and would boost ticket sales. 

  • I think that people just like showing what history looked like, the marvels from the past. People like thinking they could do it better, like well they failed but hey let's make the same "unsinkable" sink but better. That really seemed to work the other times.

  • Yes cause if it sank i would be a part of history, and maybe a part of a movie. I think its a bad idea cause noe the old one that sank might get over looked in the future. I think somome was very intrested in the old one and maybe they will us it to make a new movie on.

    • Yeah even if you went down with the ship you would definetly get a memorial of some sort. 

  • I wouldn't go on the Titanic when it's sailing because I'm not much of a ship person, but I think it'd be cool to tour it when docked and see what the original Titanic would have been like. I think it's a good idea but I can understand why someone people think that it'd be bad luck since the first one had sunk in a tragedy. Maybe the person really liked the Titanic movie and was interested in it and thought of bringing it back. 

  • I think that it is a bad idea, all the others don't seem to do well with its style or its name. Albert Einstein said, "Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results", it seems like they just keep trying and the boats just keep sinking.

  • Nope, the Titanic and all its replicas seem to have a history with sinking and not even reaching the water. I think that the boats sank for several reasons, but there is no point on risking it, I think that the name and the coping just seems to lead to bad luck.

  • I don't think I would go on the new titanic because I would be too scared that it would sink again. Although it would be fun to just tour it but not ride in it. I do think it was a good idea to  make another titanic because I think it will be a popular thing.

    • I agree that it was a good idea to rebuild the Titanic because it will be vary popular and we have the technology now to build it better. But I would want to go on it because I think it would be a fun experience and I trust that they would build it better now that we have more technology.
