It pisses me off the need to make it a movie, i saw the "movie"/ documentary on the discovery cahnnel. That was enough for me

yes, imagine how emotional it would be if you saw it live. it effects me still today since i know people who died, i was only in 7th grade, and when i got home i watched the replay of the 2nd plane hitting the tower over and over and over again. It is tattooed into my brain.

Yes, too soon for this movie.[/quote:3ae64]

I was in the 7th grade myself. I remember the day. It echoes through me pretty often. If the movie was created later, say a generation later, I could understand it. The film genre is a good way to capture emotion and teach young people how horrifying or emotional an event is. Like seeing Munich. I personally don't know much about what happened in that even, but a film that was historically correct such as Munich would probably teach me a great deal. But the generation who already lived through it may shy away from the film. To create a movie on a tradgedy that happened so recently is, in my opinion, unnecessary. And if anything the profits should go to families and memorials.

I was in eighth grade... biology class. I remember the teacher saying "Americans dont like change" because we were discussing metric vs. imperial measurements and why everyonebut the US still uses imperical.

I also remember a lot of kids making jokes about it... mad: annoy:
"I thought somebody DIED or something important"
"Guess their not twins now"

They should be forced to jump off of a sky scraper with no parachute.
