Walt Disney Pictures and James Cameron, the Academy Award(R)-winning director of TITANIC (1997), present the groundbreaking cinematic achievement GHOSTS OF THE ABYSS. Joined by his personal friend Bill Paxton (TITANIC) and a team of the world's foremost history and marine experts, Cameron journeys back to the site of his greatest inspiration -- the legendary wreck of the Titanic. During the voyage, you will explore the entire ship, deck by deck, room by room, encountering mysteries that have remained hidden for almost a century. Revolutionary underwater robots were designed and built solely for the purpose of allowing the explorers to peer deep into the remains of the once great ship and bring those surreal and haunting images back to the surface. Loaded with never-before-seen footage, revealing interviews, and innovative DVD bonuses, this unprecedented motion picture event is a must-own companion for anyone who loves TITANIC.

Awesome
I'm pretty much obsessed with Titanic and other shipwrecks. This movie was very cool. Nothing was taken from the wreck and it provides a great view into something that we will not be able to see anytime we want.

A fascinating trip to the Titanic
What made this so interesting was the march of technology - New was a huge light (requiring another ship) called Medussa that was lowered 12,000 feet over the ship. They also had digital recreations on the wreck of the original structure superimposed...
The bridge (among several areas) came to life when they used this digital recreation.
They also brought 2 remotely piloted robotic cameras named Jake and Elwood (Blues Brothers fans I would assume!) that took you into the interior of the ship.
There was some sadness even today when you saw a woman's still laced shoe and realizing that the body was long gone...
This is one DvD that doesn't stay in the shelf long - I have watched it repeatedly.
And I saw the tie in to Cameron's 1997 movie when I realized that this Russian deep sea exploration ship was the same one they used in the 1997 movie...

Excellent and informative.
Excellent and informative documentary. Underwater filming was beautiful. My daughter loved it.

When James Cameron and his crew are exploring the Titanic they end up loosing both of their robots that go inside the ship. They eventully find their robots and return to the surface from exploring the greatest shipwreck of all time!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ghosts of the Abyss
Great Film. The insertion of people walking the decks once again puts the Titanic in the first person.
