Topic: FLIGHT 93 -- Will you go to watch?

PJ24 · April 30th, 2006

At this time, I will not be seeing it. I may change my mind at a later date, but I would not watch it in the theaters anyway. Too much of a risk of some chucklehead running his mouth and me ending up in the local jail. If I do decide to watch it, it will be on DVD and I will watch it alone.

I don't like some of the ads that are out for the movie, they imply that if you see it, you're actually honoring those that died. With only 10% and not all of the profits going to a "good cause," I find that message to be a little hypocritical.

I've gotten some feedback on the movie from friends, most say it is respectful and does send a powerful message. But, there are those of us that see the smoldering rubble of what used to be the Twin Towers every. single. day. in our minds. We can still smell the stench and hear the cries and sobs. So, from my perspective, it is still too soon. It may very well prove to be a good reality check for some of those that seemed to have forgotten the emotions behind that day that ripped through the country though.
