this is a tough topic. I did see "flight 93"—i thought it was horrifyingly sad, yet an amazing film at the same time. I was expecting it to be all cheap, like they were just trying to make money off of the tragedy, but it wasnt. It all depends on how they portray the events of that day—if they overdo it and fill it with tons of special effects and cheesy plot moments, then yes i think it will have been too early for such a movie. but if they make it an accurate depiction of the horrors of 9/11 without making it too "hollywood", then no i don't think it will have been too early for america to handle it. of course it is an oliver stone film, so anything's possible lol.

A movie?

As in distilling the DECADES of government screwups involving dismissed information and ignored leads, lax security, slow response, bad communication, and general failure of our government... into TWO HOURS?

I dont think I'd want to see that movie, and I think it would be fair to say that a movie as such wouldn't do the event justice in any way, shape, or form.

At any rate, why do you need a movie? We lived through it, and lets face it. With America on the antiterrorism warpath, haven't we had the story of that day beaten into our heads by now?

Leave the movie for the next generation, when they need a reminder about what happens when security and enforcement of important policies becomes lax.

I think it's too soon for a movie. I can still remember everything about the day. Like someone previously suggested, save the movie for the next generation. What point would it serve now? But to get some Hollywood folks richer/more popular?

Not at all.

Part of the process of moving on beyond such events and mending the collective consciousness is allowing films, TV, literature and music to explore such topics.

Sure, it's painful to some, but there's no gain in hiding in grief. As a culture, our ability to take tragedy and make it palatable for discussion and, yes, even humor, is one of our strengths.

Those who might still be too traumatized by such events aren't forced to partake. They do have a choice to ignore it. Perhaps the healing process will take longer for them. But neither should they restrict others (artists or audiences) from exploring such topics in the media.

No, but I think all profits should go to the families of the firemen, police men, those in the plane and in the Towers that day and lost someone... cause if they're just making the movie to make money, then it shouldnt even be made.

Yes.
When you smelled the buildings and saw the clouds personally besides over a TV, it is a disgrace. It would be nice to see the film makers get sued. A documentary is one thing, a movie with "Drama" is an abomination.

I think it depends on how it's made and where the procedes are going. Quite frankly, it wouldn't hurt people one bit to relive that day and remember what it felt like. Might make people start showing appreciation for what they have

Flight 93 was made with actors, not celebrities and it was approved by family members.

Not at all. It seems like people are already forgetting about it. They have forgotten why we are at war. Its not an Oil War as many American Idiots say it is. It is a war on terrorism. Movies like WTC and United 93 help us to remember why we are at war.

i think Hollywood wants to make a quick buck so they make a movie that they know will bring it people to the box office. i think flight 93 movie was the only true respect full movie i don't know about the new one.

Take a poll from people who lost loved ones in the tragedy.
