u think they will use footage from the actual thing in this ?
I don't know, that's an interesting question. I would say probably not though simply due to the sensitive nature of the film. But then again, that special that ran a while ago with Robert DiNiro used actual footage.
So I guess what I'm trying to say is that I don't know the answer to that question, LOL.
some of the shots from the news footage were unbelievable...especially the stuff from the documentary makers...the 2 french guys who were the only people to get the first tower being hit....they were also at the base of the second tower when the 2nd plane hit...i remember the shot of them showing the firemen at the base of the towers...then the noise of the 2nd plane and the camera panned up to see the 2nd plane hitting the tower right above their heads....and off course the fact that they right outside when the first tower began to fall...those were truly terrifying shots

I agree about the real life footage. But you have to keep in mind the sensitive nature of this film and I'm confident they'll handle it in a respectful way.
I think it has been document enough, after all none would learn anything from it. "Trup ****" is so complaisant in his arrogance one day he'll be taken by surprise, the very idea of a building on that site, how disgraceful. His attitude is you knocked down my building blocks,
so I'll build a bigger one with my stupid name on it
come have another shot.
The message he's sending to the world is "I'm A Dickhead",
even though he is.
We all still walk around with our heads in the clouds and can't see past the end of our own noses.
Yesterday I was in my local Supermarket and a announcement came over the P.A. System, "Register 4 is now open" one guy kept asking which one was register 4, people pointed to it but still he didn't get it. So finally I said "They are numbered for a reason" pointing to the ceiling where the lanes were numbered
IN HUGE MARK-IE SIGNS WITH THE SUPERMARKET LOGO ON THEM... all he had to do was look up.
He said "I didn't know you had to look up"...
I finished with "What good are you then?"

you know what i realise...oliver stone is perhaps the most over rated producer EVERlook at his history and the only good films he has done was "born on the 4th of july" and "JFK"
everything else was crap
Dont forget The Doors and Platoon.Those were really good as well. If the story is just about two firefighters survival of the tragedy then I think it would be pretty silly to make a movie of it.But if this movie is about who was really behind the attacks and is another JFK movie,then I'm all for it.Stone woke up a lot of people including me about who was REALLY behind the assassination of JFK and if this film is another film like that one then Im all for it because just like in the JFK case,the media is covering up the truth on who was really behind it all and that it was an inside job by the government.Of course Im sure Stone will get attacked for it just like he did with JFK that is unless its just about two firefighters who survived it and thats what the movie is about of course.
I wonder how much this thing is going to cost. I mean how much footage will be shot and how much detail will go into this movie. Meaning will it be one of those that are dealing with events in thebuilding to end at time of the towers colapse (spelling) I mean there are so many areas he can focus on.
The trailer looks promising:
Plus, Oliver Stone generally makes decent movies...
