Near, far, wherever, you are, I'm sure you will remember #JamesCameron's #Titanic. A buxom #KateWinslet standing tall at the front of the doomed ship, #LeonardoDiCaprio's fresh-faced whimsy, and pausing the VCR just at the right moment to get a shot of Kate's "first class accommodation."

Way back when, when Happy Meals didn't include a fruit bag and an educational toy (possibly an abacus), the McDonald's fun box was a staple of any kid's birthday party. When tied in with the fad of the time, you could find anything from a Beanie Baby to a Lion King toy lurking under your MSG fries and chicken-mush nuggets.
