    Ok no problem I apologize. I was just posting a link though, I had no intentions of turning this into a debate.

      that's what they all say...

      haha j/k...

      I was excited to see this movie after the first teaser trailer came out. After seeing the actual trailer....I can't wait. For some reason, I'm excited to see a movie I know will make me tear up.

        Wasn't there already a made for tv movie on either A&E or the History channel about this?

        I'll most likely see it.

            been there. valid points everywhere.. this kinda gets into politics so it shouldnt be brought up. although i agree with you. its tough when you want to defend something but can't.

              the underlying tone of the movie for some is political.. sometimes its not easy to sway away from that. maybe topics like this shouldnt be allowed?

              its nothing but a breeding grounds for locked discussions

                Personally, I just find the movie concept to be... "tacky" is the nicest word that I can think of.

                "Exploitative" comes quickly to mind, as well - and the rest are unprintable.

                    Wait... can somebody enlighten me on which flight United 93 was? Apparently it wasn't one of the two that hit the WTC, correct?

                      Its the one that crashed in a field in Pennsylvania.
                      The passengers took over the plane and helped aid its crash because they knew the terrorists intentions and what had already occurred in New York. I believe Flight 93 was headed for Washington.

                      I was under the impression that new evidence revealed that passengers did not take over the flight and that the terrorists just crashed the plane knowing it was going to get shot down. I have no evidence of this I just thought I remember reading about it. Obviously if there is a motion picture about it I am pretty certain that the events of the movie are true.

                        You are correct.

                        All the recent documentaries and movies I've seen based on the phone call conversations and the blackbox recordings (those haven't been made public, but some of the victims' family members were allowed to hear them) have the terrorists crashing the plane under intense pressure from the passengers...one of the ongoing debates is whether or not they actually breached the cockpit.

                        One of the saddest things is if I remember correctly, one of the passengers on the plane had flight experience and if they had been able to take the plane back from the hijackers, they MIGHT have been able to land it.

                          That is sad and I hadn't heard that.

                          I found this from flight93crash.com

                          Important news...
                          The FBI finally allowed family members to hear the Cockpit Voice Recorder. Unfortunately, no conclusive evidence was heard by anyone. There simply is no evidence at this time that heros ever got in the cockpit. The story hasn't changed much since the Newsweek article below outlined what the reporters did and didn't read in the transcripts.

                          The Fact remains that the FBI has never stated heroes were ever in the cockpit. No official ever has. If you find such a statement please email me a link.

                          I have to ask: Why not release the Flight Data Recorder info? There is nothing horrific on it. There is nothing there that will aid and abed terrorists. There is nothing that will jeopardize a trial. And it's data that usually get's released at some point.

                          It's simply data about the aircraft as it flew and crashed.

                          There's only one reason not to release it. Because it shows the plane depressurizing, losing an engine, flipping upside down and crashing in a way that they don't care to explain.

                          November 27th - The FBI recently provided a partial Cockpit Voice Recorder transcript to 3 Newsweek reporters. It appears to verify things I've been saying for 2 months, like"The Investigators are looking into the possibility that the heroes came very close to the cockpit, it is unclear that they actually reached the cockpit door."

                          Now I'm not going to be 'that guy' that discredits what passengers could have possibly done but I just want to be clear that the events of the movie may have or may not have happened.

                              I had only seen the original trailer (just the radar scenes with audio) and just found the newest trailer which explains a lot more. It leaves it open for interpretation and looks pretty accurate.

                              Discount my previous statement.

                              Should be an interesting movie, those folks on that plane really are heros.

                                I'm not going to watch this movie. I think it is totally reprehensible that people are going to try to cash in on 9/11.
