Who thinks it's still too soon for all these 9/11 movies and TV shows too be coming out?

I don't know if it's good for the thousands of people who just were traumatized 5 years ago, to have to be bombarded with previews and ads depicting the very thing that changed their lives negatively. I guess it's just another way of cashing in on the misery of others. What arrogant prick writer or director who wasn't even there, think they can accurately reproduce the worst tragedy on domestic soil the nation has seen since Pearl Harbor? It seems like, to me, that one movie was made and then BAM! That opened the gates some Hollywood co**sucker was like, "ALL RIGHT PEOPLE! THE TIME HAS COME! NOW WE CAN MAKE OUT SH**TY MOVIES AND TV SHOWS." When will the end come. When will people quit going to these inacurate, crap movies?

    I like your question, but I don't know whether you thought it out completely.

    I would have agreed with you thoroughly once, but I had time to listen to a lot more opinions.

    Some of the people involved with 911 are glad that we don't forget what happened.

    I guess the media and, movies , and books are a good way for a lot of people who weren't there to at least feel in a voyeuristic way, I hope the term is not negative, what happened.

    Some people will be informed about what really happened there.

    Everybody wants to make money from whatever they can in a capitalist society.

    I am not going to judge whether this is wrong or right.

    But I will try to get as much information, from whatever source I can about everything.

    The people who were at Pearl Harbor hung onto the slogan "Remember Pearl Harbor", this was actually a sort of battle cry. Remember, we won the Second World War.

    Lest we forget.

    I can only answer as someone who wasn't directly traumatized by the events. I will probably go see them some of them, or rent them when they come out. For people living and working elsewhere, it's like watching the Titanic movie. A distaster is a disaster and I can remember thinking on Sept 11, 2001 as I watched CNN over and over again in awe, that 'you just can't make this stuff up!'. It was that horribly horrid that writers just hadn't even thought of such a thing. Movie people of course are all over disasters. And just like there were real victims of the Titanic there were real victims at WTC. I did hear however, that the victims families of United Flight whatever it's called (about the one that crashed in PA) supported it and thought it was dealt with nicely. There is also a TV version of this I saw on A&E.Sorry I'm rambling, my answer is yes it's probably too early for the victims close to the disaster but not for the rest of the world who will spend money to go see them, and they outnumber the victims...

    I can see what you say that it is too soon. But I also think that maybe it will never be the right time. The thing about terrorism is it inspires fear which changes the way you act. By reliving and reviewing these acts is not like going through it all again and empowering them a little. Even if the individual movie has a positive outcome people still died, and there are A LOT of families out there who are still deeply and directly affected by this. Let them have some peace and not daily reminders of their loss.

    Is it even plausible for the 9/11 conspiracy theories to be precise. actually in the journey that they are precise that would advise that an excellent conspiracy concerning human beings up and into the thousands to have all achieved their parts, and then keep thier mouthes close afterwards. If a conspiracy like that change into ever dreamed of it would probable fail, or maybe a concepts more beneficial probable to have under no circumstances even existed. Is it more beneficial probable that we were attacked through terrorists who informed us they were going to attack us, or maybe tried 10 years in the previous on a similar homes, or that thousandsof human beings were fascinated about an excellent conspiracy. Conspiracy theorists hate this us of a and they prefer to trust united statesa. change into behind 9/11 so that they devised outrageous memories as to the way it surpassed off. do not trust those WACKOS.

    I think five years is fair.

    Like WWII, the first movies will be almost fanciful and overly dramatic. Eventually more realistic movies will be made that will really shed new light on the subject.

    Compare South Pacific (which won a pulitzer) to Schiendler's List.

    So ... let them be dramatic and heart-wrenching now, I think it's probably time.

    People are ready to see the Americans involved in 9/11 as heros. Hopefully that's what they will get. If John Wayne were still around he would be all over it.

    i actually think it is well timed. America went to war over these events, and now Americans are getting tired of the war and want to pull out. nothing is worse than starting a job like this, and not finishing it.. I think these movies help remind us that we have major enemies out there, and we cant show weakness

    Get over it. The good ol' US of A has committed FAR worse atrocities in its history than what happened on 9/11.

    People have the right to document it in any way they choose.

    I don't think Hollywood should do movies at all about other people's tragedy. It's like a form of voyeurism for nosy people.

    Look at the WWII movies; they were made while the war was on going. How screwed up is that.

    There will always be an audience for this as long as Jerry Springer's crowd still lives.
