The ship in the movie was not moving at all. It did not move an inch. They used computers to make it look like it was moving.

Well, in both movies if you count the movie set moving. They were going 21 knots even though the top speed was 25 knots.

Titanic was said to be moving 21/22 knots. Too much has been made of the size of Titanic's rudder, though. It may've been just slightly too small, but Titanic's performance capabilities were perfectly acceptable.

Here's a good article...

Dear Titanic King,

Why does your signature claim that the Encyclopedia Titanica website is *your* website? I know the owner of ET, and you are definitely not him.
