This site is always good for movie trailers, but has dissapeared to the second page of Google, so I am putting it here to show you.

Here is The Simpsons Movie Trailer.

Edited.....

It was The Simpsons that I wanted to show anyway.

I felt like dropkicking some movie producer when I saw previews for that.

The holocaust, yes. But it's too soon for a 9/11 movie.

Nobody is going to forget it anytime soon, and frankly I don't want to watch a movie about it. Not my idea of entertainment.

perhaps the rest of the world will find those movies less intensive.

I think the rest of the world is over it. Well, I am anyway. This film is about the heroes, and would have had to have permission off the relatives of the plane victims.

Anyway there are plenty more movies on the left.

Try Scary Movie 4 That's really good.

Personally I don't think 9/11 should ever be made into anything remotely commercial. It's sickening, but that movie will probably make it's creators a lot of money, and it won't be through quality work.

Wars are one thing, because they affect us all, disasters, terrorist attacks, genocide, well those affect the people affected a great deal more than those unaffected, so it's not something that can be done without offending a helluva lot of people, regardless of content. I'm not at all PC, if someone is fat then I should get to say that they are fat, and they should stop forcing us to kid themselves. It all depends on how you say something, and all a 9/11 movie would say is ''Has it been long enough yet?, can we cash in now?''. I would'nt be surprised if Ben Affleck starred.

Not everyone thinks about cash. Some people want to show how the plane victims were heroes by making the last plane avoid buildings. I don't think it's good to ignore their courageous act. If I had helped save the plane, I would be delighted to be shown on the big screen as a hero. I'd look down, and say cool, they have made a film about us.

But going by every other movie like this ever made, it'll be cheesy, inacurate, possibly offensive, and the only hero will be the best looking actor, the one who stands up and rallies the troops with his war speech. Nobody knows what happend, there are no survivors so we're going by script writers ideas about what took place based on threads of information.

Personally I'd rather see Hollywood STFU and leave anything directly 9/11 related well alone.

They could make a film based on what they think happend, then dedicate it to the passengers of all the planes, I'd have more respect for that - I just think it's a bit arrogant for them to assume they know enough facts, and can speak for dead heroes, and actually market this movie as the story of what happend on that flight.

Making money is the ends of this whole thing, if they don't make money, they don't make movies, and they know just how many people will want and need to see this - why else would they make it?

i totlaly agree, seems that instead of actually making good films these directors just go for cheap subjects to make films about and no doubt it will suck, i believe a saw a short film on the events leading upto the 911 attacks and dont recall seeing any hero bits?

Halowed are the ori.

Weeelll the information is quite good about the events taking place. There is a cockpit recording of the events. There are cell phone calls full of information. There are relatives interviews. There are times, and the flight path, and the black box information showind dives, and swoops, and abrupt turns. This film is just about the final plane, not much else. News coverage is just the same, people make money from that, and newspapers make money too. Do we really want to know nothing about this? Cover it up completely?

Thread now points to The Simpsons movie trailer.

I'm not saying we don't want to know, I'm saying we want to know the facts, or as close to the facts as possible, not heresay about what might have happend. The movie may be based on lots of information, but do you think they'll bother making it accurate, or do you think they'll make a comercial movie out of it?

We won't know until it's released, if it turns out to be a respectful and honest film then I'd go see it, I'm just sceptical about the movie industry just now.

Anyhoo, your right, onto slagging off the Simpsons movie instead .

Showing off the heroes is fair share, but be prepared for some extreme exaggeration to bring in the $$$ and the awards.

I'm with VanB on this one. Now lets talking how the new Simpsons movie will voice Morgan Freemen as Homer.

Serious? Is it me or are comedies generally sucking nowadays? The last funny movie I saw was Happy Gilmore, and that was when--- 1998? My wife dragged me to Date Movie, and it was a pile of horse crap I wouldn't see again if I was paid.

Hate to burst the bubble on a 9/11 movie, but...

http://dsc.discovery.com/convergence/flight/flight.html

Of course, it was a TV special, but still looked a bit exaggerated to me. Third highest ratings in Discovery Channel history, from what I read on other sites. Apparently thats whats important.

I've already watched that. It was on Channel 5 in the UK months ago.

Didn't look exaggerated to me.

They should've just waited for Steven Spielberg to pick it up in a few years.

Well I guess in honesty I couldn't say if it was exaggerated or not, its not as if we can compare it to what actually happened, but I haven't seen anyone act that way in real life, nor could I imagine it. But then again drastic situations call for drastic measures. The Discovery Channel, whenever they recreate something, always seems exaggerated to me, and exaggerated to the story being told.

I'd say it's too soon. You need a generation of adults that weren't affected by it, in my opinion, before you can make a movie about it. Then a director can look at it from a perspective less emotionally affected by society, and an audience can look at it objectively. At the moment it'll just serve to further demonise muslims and paranoi Americans that everyone is a terrorist and all arabs are constantly plotting to kill everyone.

Nah, it's got to have been at least '96. Either way, I agree with you, although Shrek is a notable exception.
