Am I right in thinking that this is ridiculous or am I being overly sensitive? Isn't it a little too soon to be making millions of dollars off of a national tragedy?

It does seem a little too soon...not to mention I can't think of Oliver Stone or Nicholas Cage doing that kind of story any kind of justice.

I like Nicolas Cage a lot, but yeah. I can't see it turning out very well. I have a feeling the fictional rescue of Officers Mcloughlin and Jimeno from the WTC will pale from the real one.

Yes, that is ridiculous. It would be different if Paramount/Stone/Cage were seeing that all profits from the film went to a related charity. For some reason I doubt that's the case. It's really no surprise to me though, especially after having seen promotions on NBC for a television series dramatizing the affair Scott Peterson was having before he murdered his wife.

I didn't find it surprising either.

I wonder how well this movie will do. I wonder if it'll become a huge hit or a major flop. I'm leaning towards the latter.

It's ridiculous. That's bullshit. They should wait at least fifty years.

You know, I was thinking the same thing as well. I mean, Pearl Harbor came out 60 years after the real thing and it was fairly well received. By girls, at least.

Oh yeah, and why was your picture on the wall at Bothell High School?

Are you serious? That's strange... I'm guessing it had to do something with leadership camp last summer. Is it still there? Because if it is, I want to see it, lol.

Yeah, it's in an office next to the cafeteria. In the pic are you, Rapp, Miwa, Michelle, Danny Kang, and a few other people I don't remember at the moment. You'd have to go in sometime during school hours though, because I'd get canned if I let you in.

Wow, i knew it would happen someday.. but not this soon. And how early did they start thinking of making this movie if its supposed to be out next year. WTH. Im sorry but I think its just a bit disrespectful.. they should have waited at LEAST for the 10th year anniversary. Geez..
