Wow, so such emotion....when is everyone gonna protest against movies that cashed in on the Jewish Holocaust, the attack on Pearl Harbor, the American Civil War(9/11 only had what, 2,000 or so casualties? Try about 500,000 for the Civil War!), or better yet that melodrama about the genocide in Rwanda?
But really guys, you know what? In 6 months, you all will forget that you are pissed or whatever, and then watch MIDWAY on AMC........
Ronnie, your comparisons are very very weak. It is less than 5 years since the attacks took place, and obviously, with a little common sense, you would realize that there are children involved here right now. The movies that you mentioned were made many many years after the events actually took place, and while I don't say that the emotional aspect of those affected by those earlier events are any less than this one, the difference again is that time was allowed to go by, a lot of time, and there was no longer an effect on a childs life, as there is in this situation.
