Jan 21st 2003: Titanic Finally Sunk in Croatia

When Croatian distributors made last-minute decision to postpone Two Towers opening for one month, their idea was to milk as much Harry Potter 2 as possible and prevent those films from competing with each other. The decision proved to be the right one. The winner of 2002 OFCS awards broke weekly box-office records in Croatia with 61,620 theatre admissions, thus beating the previous record of Titanic with its 53,741 admissions.

I have yet to watch Two Towers, but I must say that I'm glad that Titanic got dethroned. Popularity and critical success of James Cameron's manipulative tear-jerker at the expense of much better movies was one of the greatest artistic injustices of 1990s.
