Someone paid. Stone got his money from the radio station instead, that’s all.

I haven’t seem Flight 93, and I’m not sure I want to because of the emotional considerations. I haven’t heard a negative review of it yet.

Stone’s movie is a different situation all together (or is it “altogether”?). I read Cal Thomas’ review of the film, but I have also heard that the tone of the movie is one of survival, human spirit, and other such feel good adjectives. But that is not the point of the event. The point was that we were attacked by lunatics who were a part of a larger group of lunatics who still want to cause us catastrophic destruction. If the movie doesn’t show that, if it doesn’t show the resolve felt by millions right after the event to fight these bastards, then Stone is spinning the tragic episode, just as he’s spun other moments in American history. And no, I don’t want to put a dime in his hate-America pocket either.

I got free tickets through a radio station in Austin, to a sneak peek last night to see World Trade Tower .
I would not have paid to see it.
I abhor Oliver Stone and his conspiracy theories.
I was absolutely shocked that even when opportunity was ripe in the plot, to slant it liberally, it never came.
It was a surprisingly good movie.
It was heartbreaking, to see the incidents all over again. It was intense and from what I understand, truthful, according to reports of the event. They were asking for people’s opinions as they came out of the theater and the full gamut was run, as was heard with Flight 93 (which I also saw). It is too soon to see. It was too painful, It brought back too many memories, We just want to forget what happened…

It was sad, it was hopeful and at times funny, which I found surprising. I, like many others, cried when the towers were shown, whole and intact in a panoramic view from the harbor, (I leaned over to my husband and whispered, “Good God I miss that sight”) then again when they were hit, and as the buildings collapsed. OK, I cried quite a bit!
For these people out there who say it is too soon and they want to forget what happened…
Wake up!
Truthfully folks, who out there believes that the islamofacists are not out there actively plotting to strike us again?
We must not forget.

Sometimes messages come from the strangest corners. This was a movie I will never forget seeing.

It held to the hope of life in the midst of horror.

Again, I was quite surprised.

Sure they do. They just don’t want to admit it’s “amÃ©ricain.”

What’s a “blogger extraordinaire?” Is it French?

I will wait for the dvd.

I am sick of hollywood.

Notice how they are tightening their belts now?

Notice how “celebrities” are having ot take less money for their work on films?

Notice how movie receipts ae drying up and more people wait for DVDs?

Not that there has been any real good movies out in a while. Some mediocre ones, but for hte most part millons of dollars get spent and they slap together garbage for us to see and we say, “no thanks”.

Plus the more hollyweirdos plaster their faces all over the place trying to force feed us their political view points because of their celeb status….well it just gets old fast and we get sick of seeing them and their rediculous antics.

Just pay for another movie and then go into WTC….that way you have not put one cent into their pockets, but have still quenched your curiosity.

Not I. Not one thin dime of my hard-earned cash will go to Oliver Stone. Ever.

Yes-Flight 93 was very emotional. I cried and closed my eyes at some of the violent parts. The movie helped my understanding of the confusion that occured. It also fueled my hatred towards the barbaric and primitive fanatics that started this war. See the movie if you think 911 is at fault.

One day I might like to have the stomach to watch these movies, but I’m no where near “one day” yet.

Too often people get their history lessons from movies. Stones are the worst source (not that there are good ones).

The Terrorism Awards….

rom Michelle Malkin comes information about a show on the BBC entitled Time Trumpet, which is a show of satirical skits.

Alot of times we find that we don’t all find the same things funny and this is very apparent when you cross borders….
