Considering the fact that Titanic was the highest grossing movie of all time and that everyone and their mother saw it between two and six times, I find it odd that there haven't been any references to or even jokes about Titanic on South Park. It's not necessarily a bad thing, since Titanic has been shockingly overexposed in the media(I've seen it twice myself--I'm not criticizing the film), but it would be neat to see Wendy dragging Stan to see Titanic or something along those lines. I may put such a scene in a fanfic, if ever I decide to right one.

I'm not to sure about that. The song that was alwayed played whenever Mrs. Cartman met a new man at the drunken barn dance in the Cliffhaner sure sounded like a rip off of the Celin Dion song.

Actually, I think it was a Celine Dion song(just not My Heart Will Go On), but that doesn't count as a reference to Titanic.

I think it's pretty obvious Matt and Trey get a kick out of that no talent skank Dion, and more power to them for doing so.

Even if it was, it still doesn't count as a reference to Titanic. The song/parody/whatever was in the context of a romantic scene. Titanic simply didn't come into it.
