Nope not me. Entirely too soon.

To tell you the truth, ever since that day I find it hard to watch any violent movies. I had a hard time watching "War of the Worlds" because I could relate to the shock of the people when something came out of the ground and started vaporizing people. I understand that "world upsidedown catestrophic shock". Violence and bloodshed are not entertainment anymore because they are real to me now. I just try not to subject myself to it if I can help it.

When I was watching the news on September 11th it looked like a movie- unreal at first,- grasping that each fireball, collapse and jump were people's lives, mommies, daddies, sisters, brothers, friends and children. That my beautiful country was being attacked and the deephearted fear I felt for my family, friends and myself. I will probably opt to visit that day on my own terms, with my own memories and remember that it has taught me to cherish.

That day cannot be put into a couple of hours, nor can the following weeks, months and years following it. Let alone the brave that headed over there to live their own days to fight and give their lives to prevent it and bring what we knew to future generations and countries.

Save that movie for those future generations and those that were too young too grasp what we had to. So they will understand what happened and what it is to cherish.

My dad died on Aug 22, 2001 from a brain tumor. When Sept 11 happened all I could do was thank God that my dad did not have to see it all happen. I remember thinking when the 2nd plane hit the tower, this is really happening. I agree the movie is coming out too soon. I think that my kids will want to see it when they are adults so that they will understand what all us old folks are talking abouth when we say "remember when that......"

No, I will not be going to that movie. I think its way too soon and in poor taste. IF the movie studio donated all profits to an appropriate charity that might be a bit better, but somehow I don't think that will happen.

No, its too soon and just not right.
