Its not the size its what Titanic represents the era of when man thought himself beyond the elements and even God. An even larger ship lies at the bitton of the agean sea, Titanics near identicle sister ship, so its not Titanics size which keeps people interested. If it was size then they would be more interested in its sister ship, the larger one.
I think it was the elegance and grandeur of the ship. To this day we still don't have a ship that was as beautiful as the Titanic was. It was the era. It was also what took place during the sinking, the tragedy it's self. The many stories of bravery, etc.
And to respond to another post, even today Titanic is still a big ship. I no way is Titanic considered "Tiny".
