O&A Board Veteran Registered: May. 00	Just something I've been thinking about for a while and being that Pearl Harbor came out this week on DVD it became fresh in my mind. Do you think that the WTC attack will ever be written as a movie? I mean who would have thought they could make a movie about a tragedy like Pearl Harbor that killed 2400 people but voila, there it is. Is the WTC attack off limits forever or in about 20-30 years will someone put together a script and try and put this movie together? I think the latter. If there is a possible buck to make off of anything in this world, there is some fucker out there willing to do whatever it takes to do it. Even if it means dragging families back through the hell they endured with this event, someone will do it. I can almost guarantee it. So what does everyone else think? Happy Holidays I don't have a heart of gold and I don't grow one later, OK? But relax. There's other people a lot nicer coming up -- we call them losers.

A movie right now would be very insulting and if it were made, the entire entertainment industry will be fucked. I've been wrong, I've been down Into the bottom of every bottle These five words in my head Scream "are we having fun yet?"

My name is Saul, I'm allowed to make those types of jokes. AIM: SmarterChild Write To Me Here I think it all started with the Declaration of Independence -- the idea that we had the inalienable rights of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. That pursuit is what took America from the revolution to the computer age in 200 years. But the progress has come at a price. The obvious being the people that were exploited to make it possible; the not so obvious being us, the first group of people that were given no obvious frontiers to conquer. We hear stories that about the good old days that don't seem to apply anymore. It's a generation gap that leaves us without role models. But the bright side is that without role models, there are no roles. Maybe that's what the 60s were all about -- getting rid of the roles. But what do we replace them with? Without any guidance, what do we replace them with? Without any guidance, the choices become overwhelming. Sometimes it just makes everything feel hopeless. So we destroy our bodies in the search of an ideal. Try to salvage relationships that don't work. We feel we must do something, instead of doing something that we feel. It is the prison of self-imposed momentum, and the sad part is that we get used to it. It reminds me of a song I heard the other day. It's called "The Going Nowhere Fast." But the people I have met here have shown me another side of Nowhere. They've pointed out the beautiful irony that stagnation makes it easy to stop and smell the roses, if we just let it. What would we be if we had nothing to rebel against? Well we could finally be ourselves, the first group of people who stopped looking for the answers long enough to appreciate the questions. And all we have to do is to make our own Declaration of Independence. We can embrace the right to life and liberty by simply realizing that happiness exists -- not to pursue, but to accept. After that the only challenge would be to make sure with the rest of our lives that we weren't just another fad. I don't know, it's an idea. What do you think?

O&A Board Veteran Registered: Sep. 00	I actually wrote a joke trailer the week it happened. It's on file somewher but i hacve no clue where it is. Anyway it's abou two people who fall in love. One's in tower 1, one's in tower 2. montage of them being in love, etc. plane hits, he somehow manages a crude rope to swing from his office to her office (she's below him), they're climbing down together, the rope starts to break, he leaps to his death in order to save her. EDIT: And the villain in competition for the love of the heroine is an over the top evil person complete with top hat and evil mustache and is the boss of the hero.

O&A Board Regular Registered: Jan. 01	Although I am almost 100% sure that there is an eventual movie on the way, I am totally sickened by it. The attack on Pearl Harbor deadly as it was, was on the military and not on civilians. The loss of life was still sad, but it is always different when a civilian is killed. What happened at the WTC was not an act of war, it was an act of terror, to glamorize any aspect of it is terribly disrespectful to those lost, the NYPD, FDNY, and EMS, and the armed services who as a result of this event have put their lives on the line in order to either save people or protect this country. please be the jerk of my knee i've fit you always you finish my sentences i think i love you what is your name again no matter i'm guessing your thoughts again correctly and I love the way you press my buttons so much sometimes I could strangle you USA

O&A Board Regular Registered: Oct. 00	Well, I definitely think the thing will be made eventually, but I think the story kinda has to end in real life before you can write a movie with an ending. We don't know how long the war's gonna be, we don't know if there will be MORE terrorist attacks (which would also have to be thrown into the movie.... perhaps being real fuckin smart-ass and have the same lovers who miraculously escaped WTC thrown into tragedy #2 somehow)... But don't doubt that SOMEONE wants to make big bucks off this. And it may get its protesters but in the end it'll make multi-millions. Everyone else has a scrolling marquee in their sigs.

There was ever a fuckin movie about the persian gulf war, thats was not a real war. so yeah, its just a matter of time. the studios figured out that people like watching others suffer/die, so they cash in. The more things change the more they stay the same. The more they stay the same, the more I go insane.

O&A Board Veteran Registered: Sep. 00	There's a difference between making a dramatic movie about a war such as Platoon, Longest Day, Paths of Glory, etc. and using the event as a backdrop to a cliched love story (e.g. Titanic). That's the difference between Tora, Tora, Tora and Pearl Harbor and why T^3 far surpasses even with all the CGI. And whether or not the gulf war was a war or whether it was filmed with Legos, Three Kings was an awesome fucking movie.

I like well done war movies, like Private Ryan and Apocalypse Now, I just meant that studios have a propensity to pick subject matter where a lot of people die. Realistic movies about tragedies are great, but somehow i don't think a WTC movie would be like that. The more things change the more they stay the same. The more they stay the same, the more I go insane.
