New ‘Titanic’ Theory Will Make You Want To Rewatch The Movie And Cry Even Harder

 

Get ready to rethink everything you thought you knew about Leonardo DiCaprio’s iconic character Jack Dawson, courtesy of one wild new fan theory about “Titanic.” And it also explains why Jack just didn’t hang onto that door with Rose in the end!
According to this movie-changing theory that’s heating up the internet, Jack was never real.
I know, it sounds insane, but one Redditor actually made some really compelling points that seem to prove Jack was just a figment of Rose’s imagination the whole time.

Basically, the theory states Rose was so upset about having to marry her arrogant fiancé, Cal, she invented the spontaneous and romantic Jack Dawson to be the complete counterpart to Cal.
That explains why Jack first appears to Rose when she’s considering killing herself to get out of her engagement — she invented him in her emotional state as a means of saving her own life.
Most notably, the theory points to the fact one of the researchers in the present-day portion of the film says there was no record of Jack Dawson on the Titanic. Hmmm…
This theory would also explain one of the most contentious and frustrating aspects of “Titanic”: Why couldn’t Jack have just hung on to that door, too?
Well, if he really was just a figment of Rose’s imagination, then her saying goodbye to him after the crash was also signifying her coming into her own and no longer needing her imaginary boyfriend.

 But there are a lot of holes in this theory, too. Like, of
Like, of course there isn’t a record of Jack on the Titanic because he won his ticket in a card game right before the ship set sail, so he would have boarded under another name. Plus, we see Jack interacting with a ton of characters besides Rose, like his friend he’s traveling with and Rose’s family.
Of course, theorizers could explain away all of Jack’s other interactions as also invented by Rose, since Rose is narrating the story and she could be misremembering things and inserting Jack into the events on the ship.

 Sooo, it’s really all up in the air whether you want to believe this theory or not, but it definitely makes me want to rewatch “Titanic” and see if I can pick up on any clues to point to Jack not being real!

'We sold our home to build a social network'

 Zoe Kleinman The Hughes family in Manchester have quit their jobs and put everything they own into building a social network aimed solely at sports fans. But can they take on the giants? "We see ourselves sitting at the top table with the big boys," says father Perry Hughes confidently. "We don't think we're taking on the competition." It might sound optimistic to put your family business in the same league as the multi-billion dollar social networks but the Hughes family certainly have the passion to give it a go. Their big idea is GameDay Xtra, which has the bold ambition of hosting a page for every single sports team and player in the world - with even the humblest of leagues able to share their own news. Son Sam, 21, has suspended his university studies and works through the night on the project. Daughter Mollie, 18, handles the social media side. GameDay is purely for sports fans, the family say.

LG Display's 65-inch TV rolls up like wrapping paper

With the press of a button, LG Display's 65-inch screen slowly lowers into a box, rolling up around a solid core like wrapping paper. - The tech company showed off an impressive prototype of its latest rolling-screen technology at International CES 2018 in Las Vegas. Last year, it demoed a smaller 18-inch version that could fit in your back pocket. But now its latest -- and much larger -- display can roll up, too. The front of the 4k OLED display works and looks just like a regular TV screen. When rolled out, it's rigid and flat. The back is covered in small vertical slats, which allow it to curve for storage. The screen can also be rolled partially down to create different aspect ratios. A few inches of the display can be left up to show information like the weather or headlines. LG Display -- a research arm of LG Electronics, Corp -- focuses on developing innovative display technologies, which it then sells directly to display manufacturers that w...
