Will you see this movie? post #1  quote:



We all lived through the media saturation of all events surrounding 9/11.

This movie takes places on board flight 93, which was taken down, by four brave passengers, in a field, instead of it's intended target.

Will you be seeing this movie, or not?

I will be seeing it... simply because this movie is dear to my heart.

Of the four men who said, "Let's Roll" and helped to stop the terrorists... one of them touched me deeply. He was a gay man, who's partner was given NOTHING afterwards. The other three... their wives were given different things, and their husbands were honored. So, I want to see how the movie handles his part.

it's a docu-drama. I probably won't be seeing it.

Well I don't think I will be seeing it for tow reason's 1. it will be only partly factual at bet and 2. We all know what happend. Is the film going to make the story any clearer for some people or will the film make the passengers any more heroic or the hijackers any more evil?

Being politically correct and not try to upset the muslim community, they will probably use white guys as the terrorists.

I saw the clip, they look of Middle Eastern origin.

And what a crappy role to play. It's like being Hitler or something.

The reviews coming in are excellent, but I still just don't see myself checking this out. Are the reviews swaying anyone out there?

Im not planning on seeing it.

I always have a problem with seeing movies like this...I mean some is going to be truth, based on the air traffic controllers that are around and know what what happening in the cockpit, but the thing they cannot play truthfully are the words between the passengers. They can tell us what what said on cell converations with the families who talked to them but any other conversations are not truth. In this case, it is mere speculation, and Im not interested in adding drama to something like this for "entertainment" purposes.

I dont think people are quite ready for this movie....its still too soon.....at least for me anyhow.



Of course thats just my opinion....I could be wrong. (Dennis Miller)

I want to see it....mostly out of curiosity. I want to see how they handle such a tragic event that touched the lives of every American. Did they pull it off with class? How will I feel after I leave the theater? These are all questions I will answer tomorrow after I see it.
