They should stop making these movies about people getting killed and all the tragedy that has happened. It is not a good idea. Think about it, if your parents died in the WTC, would you go and see that?
No I don't think so. It's pretty sad especially with all the other movies. My class and friends have promised to not see this movie.
Although they are making a movie about the bad stuff, we should still pray for the one's lost in the WTC and not make the movies. Put yourself in my position and see what I see. Feel what I feel.
It doesn't make any sense to make a movie about people dying and getting blown up by a plane by terrorists.
Please, all people of America, thanks for you support but stop making these movies!

A few things. It never shows the planes hitting the tower. It's a movie about survial and hope not people dying. You should go see teh movie before you start :):):):):)ing about it.

It's just a money grab, preying on the tragedies of 9/11.
Hell, I hope another tragedy strikes so I can make a movie about it and get rich!

There are soooo many people who would hurt you for that...
You'd better run. Far away. Fast.

Cloak, while I've called you a flamer, a hypocrite, and generally an idiot, I've also once agreed with you, amazing though that was. But I think I need to add another to the short list above: callous, and uncaring. Not only did a few, oh, thousands of people die that day, but thousands since directly -because- of that day, and that's just Americans. Unless you're one of the least scrupulous of the insurance agencies that swarmed on New Orleans in the wake of Katrina, there's really no need to be so outspokenly careless; and even then, you're a disgrace to humanity on general purposes.
This is not a flame, by the way, but truth: Try to watch your mouth, or fingers in this case, when speaking of a tragedy in which, statistically speaking, people on these boards have likely lost someone they loved. Or in which people who serve your country or likely to visit, after they've been to the great sandbox. Whatever your personal views, or mine, on what really happened that day, the deaths are an indisputable fact, and they do not require your disrespect.

Strangely enough I found Cloak's comment amusing, but that's because sarcasm is a common form of speech in my country, and make no mistake he's right, that's all this 9/11 movie is, a money-grab.

About the movie, he is right, and amusing. It is a money-grab; I'm not debating that.
What I am debating is his "hope" that something else happens. I know he meant it as a joke, but it's going a bit beyond insensitive at that point.
Wow wtf were all you people. Um I kinda remember everyone saying after 9/11 that "We will never forget" it was like on every :):):):)ing commercial. What better way not to forget then a damn movie? Also what better way to remember the time when our nation really united and became the most patriotic since probably pearl harbor. I for one am glad a movie like this came out.

I have not yet seen the movie, but everything I've heard and read about it indicates that it is very respectful of the victims of that terrible day. I also see no reason why there should not be a movie about it. If it is a way for people to gain hope, and an example of how to act, I think that it's worth making.

Unfortunately if you can't deal with insensitivity, that's your problem, not mine.

Well, since you're such an advocate for truth, allow me to give you perspective.
There are between 40500 and 45144 confirmed civilian deaths in Iraq due to our war. Thats the confrimed body count. The actual estimated amount of civilian deaths is 100,000 according to Lancet, a Brithish Medical Journal.
How many people died on 9-11? 3000?
How many troops have we lost? Under 3000.
American total casualties: Under 6000.
I didn't once see you mention the deaths of 100,000 innocent civilians in another country far far away. 3000 civilian deaths on Sept 11. You can't compare the two.
So, sorry man, it looks like your notion of "respect" only travels as far as the American borders.

You know what why dont you just go protest the real civilian killers like war lords and dictators.

Actually, Cloak, I hold the same respect for the thousands of Iraqi's who have had to struggle through life as we occupy a nation we shouldn't have, the Afghani's who do the same, and even the Lebanese who have to deal with Israel's psychotic episodes..and the Israeli's, who have to deal with Hezbollah's.
This thread was, however, about the World Trade Center, and so I kept it to topic. But this, I believe, is where you call my a "baby-killer" and listen to Jane Fonda tell you how wonderful we have it, as POW's.
Or you can just be silent, and quit trying to inflame everyone with your ludicrous, ridiculous, and generally little more than annoying posts. Assuming, you know, makes a rear-end out of you and...well, you, in this case.

CloaknDagger, if you have such a problem with America, leave, try and find a place that will actually allow you to say something like that, alot of other places in this world would have you killed for saying something like that about their country, think about that.

Well I have to swallow my pride and say I was wrong about this movie. I haven't seen it (and don't intend to), but everyone has given it excellent reviews. Looks like they got one of the few directors in Hollywood who isn't a total hack.
An absolutely staggering number of people die before their time everyday, whether it be from tin-pot dictators like Kim Jong Ill or Robert Mugabe, because of the views of groups like the Vatican and their desire to infect the whole of Africa with AIDS, or because of terrorists who attack civilian targets. Man this is the reason I drink.

Yes, I'd expect Oliver Stone to do a somewhat better job of it than, say, Uwe Boll.

USA is the best country in the world, but it still has major critical flaws. There's no way I'd leave the USA, I'd rather fix it from the inside out.

well, instead of bashing the america's honor, DO something, calling our armed forces muderers (u said that on a different thread) and saying 911 was staged isn't 'helping'

Man... the thought of Uwe Boll making a movie about 9/11 gives me shivers down my spine.
But yeah, there's no good reason we shouldn't make movies about 9/11. This close to the actual date it helps that the movies thus far have been good, serious ones.
9/11 is a big 'surprise attack' event on the same scale as (and bears a strong resemblance to) Pearl Harbor. We've made plenty of movies about that, precisely because it was such an important event. At this date we've even made movies that portrayed both the Japanese and American sides of the battle and showed some of the rationale for the Japanese attack - something I suspect that we'll have to wait many more years to see with 9/11. Right now the movies reflect our current views - these guys came outta nowhere and a whole lot of Americans got killed.
