Click on the movie poster and go to the site... the director has a long statement about the movie, which includes the approval of all the families involved.

i understand that the families would have had to approve it.. i still don't think it's right though.
the bottom line is that someone made a feature film about this to make money. although I didn't read it on the site, i know i'll hear, "this movie was made to let the world know ..." no. It was made to line pockets and stir up more controversy.
i don't like it.

Although this may happen, I disagree that it's the only reason for it. Haven't you ever wanted to make a movie about this or that in your life that you just KNOW would be awesome? Sometimes you just want your story to get out there, because you really care about it. Will some fat cats in Hollywood only care about the money... sure! But that doesn't mean the movie won't be powerful. Mind you, I hated how Paul Greengrass directed Bourne Supremacy, but he might just be out to make a good movie. Let's hope he uses less shakey cam. I almost threw up in the Bourne Supremacy.

Please, they're already making a movie about the autistic high school basketball kid. I could take a shit on the street tomorrow and there'd be a multimillion dollar production next summer.

Snakes on a Plane is a better movie anyway...

What is it that Alan Alda's slimy TV producer character says in Crimes and Misdemeanors? "Tragedy plus time = comedy." This movie might be acceptable two generations removed, but not now.
p.s. flight 93 was downed by US fighter pilots.

What's the big deal? It's not like they're glorifying the terrorists. Bottom line: it's a compelling story. I'm so fucking sick and tired of everybody getting their panites in a bundle over every god damned thing that might be even the slightest bit offensive to anybody. I probably won't go see it because it doesn't look like it's that well made, but I won't boycott it or anything ridiculous like that. What sort of pious asshole has any right whatsoever to tell someone that they shouldn't tell this story. Get off your high horse, and, more importantly, pull your head out of it's ass.
