It looks like a good movie and I didn't think United 93 was too early.  A lot needed to be reminded of what happened.  As the saying goes, lest we forget...

I happen to agree.  I just hope we dont see a flood now that the door has been opened, and get everyone numbed by overimmersion.

I went to the movies Friday to see X3 and saw a sign posted outside one of the theaders. It said there was going to be a preview of World Trade Center and may be graphic and upsetting to patrons. My first thought was why the warning but then I looked at my kids and thought again. When 911 happened I personally thought "here we go, war on our soil". I went to my kids school, pulled them all out, got my wife at work, and after we got home laid a plan out in case of war breaking out in the area. I know you all think this guy is nuts. Truthfully I thought I was going nuts. I was part of Desert Shield, went to Somalia and supported Yugoslavia from Turkey, So when this happened I was making damn sure my family was with me.

Nicolas Cage...

That right there means it's gonna suck.

Oliver Stone lost his directing chops ages ago.

he was never that good.
platoon was a knockoff of Cross of Iron & i think Salavador was just lucky.
tremendous cinematographer, though.  
The Doors is actually enjoyable if you watch it with the sound off.
i liked Wall Street, but look at his batting average, musta been lucky also

AMEN!  I have never like Cage in any movie Ive seen him in.

       Heres the movie. A littles bit inside the planes, a little bit the people in the buildings, the hijack, the impact, the suffering and fear, the lucky ones and the inevitable collapse. Roll credits. Oh..and poor acting throughout.

I'll wait to see what kind of reviews it gets...

But if this turns out to be some kind of conspiracy flick where he plays loose with historical facts(like JFK) I won't be paying any money to go see it..

I heard it will not have a typical hollyweird political agenda subliminally implied into the storyline.

The trailor for United 93 choked me up.

The trailor for WTC didn't even give me goosebumps.
