"The Passion of the Flight" That's what "united 93" should be called
The death-obsessed fascist x-tian taliban flocked to see mel gibson's three-hour beating in 2004...(perhaps that's why all those good x-tians didn't mind all those minor frat house stunts that went on at Sigma Kappa Abu Ghraib-a...maybe it desensitized them.

But does anyone else think that beyond the blatant profiting once again from others' pain and suffering - (even waiting 2000 years to profit from this terrible tragedy wouldn't be long enough for me) that this UNITED 93 is being let out on the American Sheeple at this specific time to be the background of a larger, darker, more sinister Bushie scheme?

I do.

Terra! Fear! Let me attack ____________ or this will happen again! NUKULAR PROLEFBERASHUN! WE"RE GONNA GET DESTROYED IN THE ELECTIONS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

What do you think?


You know those "We will never forget" 911 tee shirts and stickers and shit?

Here's the billboard for the new Tragedy Profiteering Snuff Film, Flight 93

"The Passion of the Flight"
"YOU will NEVER forget - not ever, we guarantee it"

2. Although this one doesn't seem to be making much profit...
Even with all the hype, it finished No. 2 to RV, and will quickly fade from theaters at this rate.

Courage in 'United'

Really Good read that sums it all up:

"That act of unity on United 93 was a metaphor for what this nation needed to do starting on Sept. 12. United, we needed to track down and capture or kill Osama Bin Laden in Afghanistan. We needed to stay on the job until he was on trial or in a grave. But instead you are reminded at the end of "United 93" that almost five years later we have still not brought all the monsters responsible for killing our fellow Americans on Sept. 11 to justice. Bin Laden roams free, issuing more videos than Eminem. We have lost almost 2,400 more beautiful Americans - 70 in April alone - in a disgraceful bait-and-switch war in Iraq, launched on cherry-picked intelligence and bald lies by oilmen who never saw a day of combat in their cozy lives."


"Instead of having a "united" United States at war against Bin Laden's Al Qaeda, which killed our people, we are trapped in a quagmire in Iraq, refereeing a civil war. We are crippled with a lame-duck President who ran as a "uniter, not a divider" now telling us he's the "decider," presiding over the most divided nation since the Civil War."


"In his six years in the White House, the only thing President Bush has managed to unite the majority of Americans about is that he is divisive, untruthful and doing a terrible job as President. Watching "United 93," this gave me no Bush-hating liberal glee. It filled me with rage that we have let the true killers get away with mass murder."

7. I'm sure that is the view many intelligent, reasonable americans hold, but
I don't think that's who the flick is targeted on.

I'm thinking it's the Lee Greenwood, Git 'er Done, Kill'em all let god sort 'em out, christofascistnationalisticwarmongeringfearsoakedspongeheaddedzealot-MORAN's.

but what do I know?
