I find it interesting your comment about people not understanding or caring. Man I can't believe how people wouldn't still be effected by 9/11 or wouldn't care or feel anything.
It is still like a fresh open wound to me. The images from that day make me sick and I don't think I'll ever, or will be able to ever forget. It was a living nightmare.
Damn, I'm getting teary just writing this.

I remember a day or two after that day, we were talking about the events in my high school journalism class, we had a dumbass girl in the class who pretty much said that she didn't care about it because it didn't matter to her. I was sitting right near her and I wanted to jump out of my chair and punch her teeth down her throat, it was so disrespectful. The teacher just sighed, shook his head, and continued on with the rest of the class. Matt

I'm not sure if it will still be out by the time I get back to the States. Even if it is I may just wait for the DVD. I'm not sure if I want to be in that emotional of a movie out in public.

EXCLUSIVE: EXCERPTS FROM THE SCRIPT OF OLIVER STONE'S WORLD TRADE CENTER
-----------------------------------------------------
[On Flight 11, everything is calm, until suddenly, [DICK] CHENEY explodes out of his seat and waves around a gun.]
CHENEY: OK, nobody move! Everybody stay quiet! If you move, you'll endanger yourself and everyone else. Just stay down. Come on, you guys!
[At this command, [DONALD] RUMSFELD, [CONDOLEEZZA] RICE, and [JOHN] ASHCROFT also stand up, brandishing guns; ASHCROFT grabs the detonator to the bomb around his midsection. The four of them huddle up at the front of the cabin.]
CHENEY: OK. John, you stay here and guard the door to the cockpit. Don, after we get the pilots, find the autopilot and set a direct course for Tower 1. Condi, have you been practicing your Arabic?
RICE: Na'am. [Yes.]
CHENEY: Good. You say some threats in Arabic where the black box can overhear you. Everyone got their parachutes? [affirmative responses] Good. We'll jump out a little bit before it hits.
RUMSFELD: I've been in radio contact with Colin [Powell] getting ready to board Flight 175, and Karl [Rove], who's heading for Flight 77, and Dick [Armitage], who's waiting for Flight 93, and they're all right on schedule, too.
CHENEY: Good. Let's do it. [He picks up the axe from the emergency kit and readies himself to bust down the cockpit door.] For Halliburton!
-----------------------------------------------------
[CHENEY walks back into the cabin and surveys the passengers. He spots a group of Arabic passengers and barks at one of them.]
CHENEY: You there! What's your name?
PASSENGER (terrified): Mohamed Atta, sir.
CHENEY: You from Iraq or Afghanistan or something?
PASSENGER: Egypt, sir.
CHENEY: Aw, what the hell, you look brown to me. You five get in the cockpit and give Don a hand flying this crate. [He and ASHCROFT aim guns at them.]
ARABIC PASSENGERS: Yes, sir, please don't hurt us, etc. [they nervously shuffle into the cockpit, hands in the air.]
-----------------------------------------------------
[Back at Booker Elementary in Florida, [ANDY] CARD walks up to BUSH and whispers in his ear.]
CARD: Mr. Bush, the attack is going off perfectly. Both towers are history, and all of our people are OK.
[He backs off as a smile grows on BUSH'S face.]
BUSH: Wonderful. [the children and teachers stare at him.] Your reading, it was wonderful. Come on outside for a minute. [he rises, indicates, and walks out, followed by most of the room.]
EXT. BOOKER ELEMENTARY - DAY
[In a field outside, CARD hands BUSH a golf club and drops a ball on the ground.]
BUSH: Now, watch this drive.
-----------------------------------------------------
[CHENEY enters the Oval Office, where BUSH is hunched over his desk.]
CHENEY: It's sealed, Mr. President. Congress has authorised the use of military force.
BUSH: Perfect. Almost as perfect as my great deception in 1963, when I crouched down behind that grassy knoll in Dallas and finished the job my friend Lee Harvey Oswald started. [evil laugh, in which CHENEY joins.] OK, now let's go kill that Sheehan kid. [exeunt.]
-----------------------------------------------------
(BUSH walks into the damp, dark dungeon, where [ALEX] JONES is still chained to the wall.)
BUSH: Well, Mr. Jones, it seems as though you were a little too accurate in what you were trying to get out to your listeners. If anyone listened to your show, we might be in real trouble now. But the towers are gone, the planes exploded, and there's nothing you can do about it. Once again, you see there is nothing you can possess which I cannot take away.
JONES: I will stop you, Mr. Satan-worshipping President! I will expose all your lies! The American people will stand up for their rights! You cannot stop my dynamic human spirit for it refuses to submit!
BUSH: It may be time to start some very nasty torture on you, Mr. Jones. First, I'm going to put this pair of underpants over your head. (does so). Now, I'm going to put on Rush Limbaugh for the next three hours. (turns on a nearby radio, from which Limbaugh's voice speaks. JONES begins wailing in pain.) See you later, Mr. Jones. (exit.)
-----------------------------------------------------
[After final shot of carnage, cut to black. Before credits roll, we hear a child's voice whispering.]
CHILD'S VOICE (whispered): A girl got a pet goat. She liked to go running with her pet goat. She played with her goat in her house. She played with her goat in her yard. But the goat did some things that made the girl's dad mad. The goat ate things. He ate cans and he ate canes. He ate pans and he ate panes. He even ate capes and caps.
[Roll credits.]
