This is very wrong. (And just a tiny bit right.)

Am I the only one who simultaneously thinks this Titanic thing is appallingly tacky yet still totally wants to do it?

However, their plans to take exactly 1,309 people on the voyage make no sense. Titanic did not set sail with 1,309 people. If I correctly remember the actor playing First Officer Murdoch in the 1997 film, there were approximately “2,200 souls on board.” Maybe that 1,309 number they keep throwing around is the number that died, in which case this just got very creepy. Perhaps they’re planning even more of a re-creation than the passengers imagine?
