When was the last time you heard of a bunch of billionaires trapped in a lost sub operated by a game-boy controller, possibly spending their last few moments gazing at the bow of the Titanic, with air supply rapidly dwindling?
Box office suspense sci-fi thrillers don't hold a candle to this one.
Maybe wait on the offensive memes until the window of survival has passed and there's no way they could be gasping on their last breaths while bolted into a tin can either bobbing on the surface possibly seeing rescue craft in the distance or planes overhead, or staring at the bow of the...
