Well apparently I couldn't get the link on here, so you will have to copy and paste this link, hopefully it will work.

Default I'm torn

Living here at flight 93's destination (SFO), obviously, there has been a bit of press about the movie over the last couple of weeks, including opinions from both the passenger and crew families. All in all, they are in favor of the movie and it's message. The filmmaker had screenings here in the Bay Area for the families. I have mixed emotions about seeing the film, but I've chosen to go see it.

I think that I'm going to go alone to a matinee though, because I know how I'm going to react.

To my former neighbor, Lauren Grandcolas, rest in peace beautiful woman, and to her husband Jack, may you finally have your peace.

im no pilot, but watching the preview for this movie really touched me. I can't decide if they touched me like i need to see it, or like i should NEVER see it. all i know is when it comes on, i need to change the channel immediatly.

"I think it's apalling that one this country's darkest moments has been trivialized by a questionable Hollywood dramatization. "



"What angers and saddens me is to hear the voices of the flightcrew as the highjackers came through the cockpit door."





I couldnt agree more...I dont see how we can blow the whole issue up in hollywood...Pretty sad

Personally I think it's wrong to speculate on this event without knowing all the facts. I fear that the movie will be just as much fiction as will be fact. Another item to consider is what other items were dramatized to create this film. I still get sick when I think about that day, I know exactly where I was and what I was doing when it happened.

I think and hope I never forget!

I'm not the only one who resolved to never forget, and never forgive. The fights still on.
The fight shoud have been on a long time ago. Remember these: Embassy bombings, 1998; PanAM 103; The USS Cole bombing; World Trade Center, 1993; Khobar Towers, 1996?
