Re: NS #4

[(Anonymous)]

Actually it did feature real people. The officer on the Titanic who shot himself was a real person with the same name as used in the movie, and there was a big kerfluffle over his extremely negative portrayal when he had actually been a very decent guy.

Also, it was a crap movie. =D

I wouldn't cite Cracked as a trustworthy source, but I'll give you the benefit of the doubt and stand corrected on that; but it kind of holds up the point I was trying to make: that big-deal movies are made out of horrible tragedies all the time, and I was curious where, if any, the line was between these two things.

And pardon me for the run-on sentence from hell.

I think the difference is that, going with you're example, the movies are made years after the fact, so there's time for the people involved to get over the worst of what's happened, usually. Where as what the OP is talking about, it's usually right after the event happens. For example, say...people writing fic about Travolta's son's death, right after it happened/making the 'THIS WOULD BE GREAT FIC!' comment[s] right after happened.

So, I'd say the main difference is in timing, and what the OP is talking about falls under the category of 'Too Soon' after a major negative event.
