Her husband was already dead, and I for one believe when you die, you go the the happiest time in your life, for Rose, we know what that was... and for her hubby, he was off somewhere... probably with some other woman.. the love of HIS life that he could never be with.....lol

She died, end of story. Question is, where was her husband? I'll bet he was disappointed when she didn't come to him. And yet again, she leaves another man hanging...

ok, at the end of the film she died. Then she went to her heaven which was the titanic and she met Jack again.
Simple. She never let go.
They loved each other. The titanic was were she found Jack, the love of her life. So she was so happy, so she went to the place where she was happy most...the Titanic with Jack.

well, its a difficult question... cuz if u see the movie ... at the end after Rose dropped the heart of the ocean there were lots of portraits... she was riding a horse in the roller coaster... if u see that... jack n rose were talking about that on titanic... so, rose did all those things cuz jack said they'd do that after they arrived in N.Y..
n... in my opinion Rose died as Jack say it'll be... Jack's quote
(you're gonna die been an old old lady, warm in your bed, not here, not this night, not like this do u understand me?
you must promise me that you'll survive that you won't give up, no matter what happens, no matter how hopeless... promise me now Rose n never let go that promise.. never let go...)

which means Rose didnt let go that promise..
other thing... for me the heart of the ocean was Rose n Jack's heart... n when Rose dropped it... she felt alive for made all what she wanted to do with jack....
at night.... u see that something its gettin' closer to titanic... then, it goes running in Deck B... enter to the grandstairse... n BINGO!! there's Rose! so... that thing getting closer was Rose's soul....
n the ship apeared clean n new as ever... cuz its the ship of dreams... thats what it was called right?? so.. thats my point..
Rose died to be with the love of her life... Jack Dawson within the ship of dreams....

oh yeah. she went to heaven and saw jack blah blah blah. it was a dream! simple!

I don't remember it. aghh. I'm gonna have to watch the dreadful movie again

Supposedly, cameron left the ida open because fox and paramount where toyin with the idea with a sequal, after all the biggest grossing movie ever, it was on the cards. However as illistrated in other threads the idea went out the window due to to many holes in such a plot. But I think the intent was that she Died.

I think she died, and her spirit went back to the happiest time in her life, to the Titanic and Jack! She made him a promise, and she kept it in life, as well as in death.

I think she died also, it almost seems as if she finally did what she wanted to do, which was to return the heart of the ocean to where it belongs. Notice she seemed very relieved and peaceful after that.
