MOVIE SHILL - United 93

Sylvia Saint

Universal Studios is releasing a film on April 28th called UNITED 93. It's supposed to chronical the last few hours of that one al-Qaeda hijacked flight that was supposed to be flown into the White House or Capital Hill (as we don't REALLY know what the crazed hijackers would have actually done).

I was reading somewhere that 80% of polled potential viewers said they wouldn't see the movie, with most stating that "it's too soon" to see a re-enactment (particularly one sanctioned by Hollywood) of those wake-your-ass-up events of 9/11.

Some people claim that Universal should donate all profits to the victims families. Now that's a good idea, and Universal definitely needs to make that pledge.

Only things is we all know about Hollywood's creative accounting processes, Universal would say that the film only lost money.

In any event, it's not too soon to see these events made into entertainment fodder. I say this because, perhaps it can foster additional healing that apparently still needs to happen.

'Cause it'll always be "too soon" until the next freedom fighter act on American soil wakes us up from the global raping that the U.S. has done since the end of WWII.

The Sylvia Saint image is in action, because we're still at war, and it's a perverted war, where we're fighting for our rights to see nudity on the web (eventhough ICAN got punked by the Commerce Department a few days ago and they postponed the creation of the .xxx Web-address signifier).
