The Official JD Movie Review Thread

Yeah, I thought I heard something about that.

That's cool that they're donating 10% of the first five day haul but my opinion remains unchanged. 

This tragic event that affected so many people and changed the course of life for so many Americans (among others worldwide) is now a blockbuster movie starring Nicolas Cage and directed by Oliver Stone (the guy that brought you Natural Born Killers).

Doesn't that just feel, well - odd?  I felt that same way when I saw Ben Affleck and Josh Harnett flying around in WWII bombers "pretending" to be heroes.

Do you feel the same way about Abbot and Costello doing WW2 flicks during that war?  Or Looney Tunes doing the same?  Captain America comics fighting the Nazis?  The recent FX series "Over There?"  Mass media has always covered and replayed current and recent tragedies and wars.

But weren't those meant to boost the war effort and the spirit of the American people? 

[ruiner]

Yeah, I think the context is different, very different.

Who's going to sympathize with Nazis getting their asses handed to them by Captain America!?

The Red Scull.

Too soon for this, I feel.

I went to see World Trade Center on wedensday and glad I did.  I have always wanted to know the unkown stories of those tragic events.  The stories that you don't hear about at all like the two marines and in a some what known story in what happened to those PADA officers. 
In regards to whether its to soon or not I think like Anthony's post said for those of us who lived those events there won't be a good time to see any movies about those attacks.

I completely agree with you. But, watch Tora, Tora, Tora if you want to see a Pearl Harbor film that does the subject justice.

One of my long time favorites, Thank you Anton

GO SEE SNAKES ON A PLANE! NOW!

Seriously, the movie has everything. EVERYTHING. Swearing, random deaths, boobs, people getting bitten in private areas, and best of all, MACE WINDU killing snakes using fire, spears, microwaves, etc.

Best. Movie. Ever.

[Hemish]

Nope, This would be best movie ever

[Ben]

Went and saw Little Miss Sunshine tonight and loved it. Even at the 9:20 show almost everyone in the theatre clapped when the movie was over. If you're into comedy, this is a great film for you to see.
