Has anyone ever seen the movie, Murder at 1600. How close to the truth are those kinds of things
capable in helping the United States? It is showing on the Starz cable channel this weekend? SCary and thoughtful stuff.

3. I've not seen it,
but the movie with Will Smith and Gene Hackman was pretty scary for me, for probably the same reason.

8. "Enemy Of The State"
That film was really "over the top" in many ways, but I enjoyed it immensely. I've watched 3 times so far, and I may view it again later today!

6. Since you brought it up...
You could give a quick description, in order to illustrate whatever point you're trying to make.

12. Don't you know
that this is a discussion board and folks are entitled to make vague references to all sorts of shit. They don't have to clearly communicate anything. You're supposed to have broad powers of ESP to read their mind and you're supposed to click on all sorts of blind links and have a database of all sorts of trivial knowledge in your brain to connect they dts and fill in the blanks.

I figure if somebody wants me to know what the hell the're trying to say then they can communicate it clearly. If it's not worth their time to do so then it sure as hell ain't worth my time to figure it out. Posters who do that shit repeatedly usually end up on my ignore list.

10. Seriously?
Edited on Sun Sep-05-10 08:27 AM by Edweird
'Murder at 1600' is not a documentary - it's a movie. A bad one at that. Just like 'Passenger 57' isn't a realistic portrayal of airline security and 'Money Train' isn't a realistic portrayal of mass transit. In fact, I believe it's safe to say that Wesley Snipes involvement basically ensures a divorce from reality.

11. I don't like the tone of your post. It's very offensive. Please explain what you mean.
