Draws on

What the speakers say they, or a film of theirs, drew on. Each is a speaker's account: “the maker said so” when they report the maker's own words, “the host's read” when the read is theirs.

Twister (1996): 1 line

  1. industry (industry) · through Titanic (1997), which they acted in: Twister ⇒ Titanic (the host's read). Twister started a playbook of putting not-yet-A-list leads in a spectacle, which Titanic and later Star Wars followed.
    “It became a playbook for it.”
    The Rewatchables · ‘Twister’ With Bill Simmons, Chris Ryan, and Van Lathan · 1:54:01 · Bill Simmons (0.40 sure it was them)

Drawn on by

What the speakers say drew on them or a film of theirs, marked the same way.

Avatar (2009): 2 lines

  1. career (career) · through Titanic (1997), which they acted in: Titanic ⇒ Avatar (the host's read). Avatar could only be made because Titanic gave Cameron the clout.
    “I'd never have gotten to make it if he hadn't made Titanic.”
    The Big Picture · The Great ‘Avatar’ Debate with Blank Check’s Griffin Newman and David Sims · 1:09:04 · unknown (0.40 sure it was them)
  2. verdict (verdict) · through Titanic (1997), which they acted in: Titanic ⇒ Avatar (the host's read). Titanic made Cameron so successful that Hollywood let him do anything.
    “needed to have this extraordinary amount of success over these decades to conceive an execute of something so crazy as Avatar.”
    The Big Picture · The Great ‘Avatar’ Debate with Blank Check’s Griffin Newman and David Sims · 1:45:16 · unknown (0.40 sure it was them)

Killers of the Flower Moon (2023): 1 line

  1. lineage (callback) · through Titanic (1997), which they acted in: Titanic ⇒ Killers of the Flower Moon (the host's read). The car make-out scene is a funny Titanic callback.
    “I thought there was a really funny callback to Titanic when they're making out in the car.”
    The Big Picture · ‘Killers of the Flower Moon’ Is Astounding · 0:35:48 · Amanda Dobbins (0.50 sure it was them)

Leonardo DiCaprio: 1 line

  1. theme (rejects persona) · through Titanic (1997), which they acted in: Titanic ⇒ Leonardo DiCaprio (the host's read). His broken, dim characters read as a rejection of Jack in Titanic and the matinee-idol image.
    “maybe all of this is a one long rejection of Jack from Titanic”
    The Big Picture · ‘Killers of the Flower Moon’ Is Astounding · 0:27:38 · Sean Fennessey (0.50 sure it was them)

Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World (2003): 1 line

  1. unmapped (shared-technology) · through Titanic (1997), which they acted in: Titanic ⇒ Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World (the host's read). The film exists because James Cameron's Mexican Titanic tank, with a gimbal, was still usable for the ship set.
    “James Cameron had done the legwork to build out the system to be able to basically shoot this on a gimbal in a tank of a proper set.”
    Blank Check with Griffin & David · Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World with John Hodgman · 1:30:47 · David Sims (0.50 sure it was them)

What the speakers said they did

Acting (1) everyone in acting

What was said about them, by kind

industry (1)

  1. industry (industry): Joan Allen → Gloria Stuart. Allen should have taken the Supporting Actress nomination that went to Titanic's Gloria Stuart.
    “I think that that was Joan Allen's spot.”
    The Rewatchables · ‘The Ice Storm’ With Bill Simmons, Chris Ryan, and Sean Fennessey · 0:54:40 · Chris Ryan (0.50 sure it was them)
