The Legend of the Titanic/Headscratchers

• Why was this film even made?
  • To cash in on the success of James Cameron's Titanic, probably. As to why this was made the way it was...three guesses come to mind: A) The writers and directors were poorly educated on history and didn't realize this was a real tragic event where hundreds of people died, or B) they were aware of this but thought that the truth would be too scary and sad for young children to handle, or C) they cared less about making a historical movie for children and more about shoving their save-the-whales agenda down their throats.
