Mostly because I didn't think anyone should make any money from the tragesdy. I have always respected your opinions, so I will probably watch this movie also.Bonniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13637952428656957505noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11335434.post-83602381224678483112010-02-05T11:26:24.544-06:002010-02-05T11:26:24.544-06:00Going to rent it, thanks.Going to rent it, thanks.JeanMachttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14536421799031706759noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11335434.post-27027254610502294642010-02-05T07:00:43.751-06:002010-02-05T07:00:43.751-06:00Nancy -- It seems to me that most people boarding ...Nancy -- It seems to me that most people boarding an airplane would want to cooperate with security. Peraps we should form two lines. One line would be for people who volunteer to be searched. The other line for people who refuse to be searched. Then take all those who refuse and search them:)<br /><br />Joe -- Ron's daughter is a gorgeous young woman. She has yet to get through security without a thorough search. You can't convince me they think she is a terrorist. I think they are just dirty old men.<br /><br />Ily -- It is especially a reminder of the confusion of the day. Not just the confusion we felt as we watched the events unfold, but the confusion felt by persons who should have been able to help but were powerless.<br /><br />Lucy -- The passengers were indeed heros.Granny Anniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18165058412950953296noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11335434.post-69822660076661226372010-02-05T00:52:31.919-06:002010-02-05T00:52:31.919-06:00Annie, they are searching women and old people so ...Annie, they are searching women and old people so that they can be politically correct...

I mean it happens to me everytime because I look like a bit of a thug so that's ok but It seems inappropriate for my daughter to have anyone running their hands over her checking for guns or drugs.LL Cool Joehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13916666100971008775noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11335434.post-12838049490990942612010-02-04T15:43:18.325-06:002010-02-04T15:43:18.325-06:00Annie,

But, I completely agree with you, they should search everyone with the same diligence they used as they looked an old lady like me over.<br /><br />Last year they took a pair of manicure scissors from me. I wondered then if they thought an 80 year old lady could bring down an Air Bus 320 with manicure scissors...

Come to think of it, I get the feeling I've been gut-punched when I see the World Trade Center Towers in movies. Even today, it isn't easy for me to think of 9/11<br />without becoming very angry. I think I need some more time, but thanks for the movie review.cubehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13788126579896276199noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11335434.post-91789257788843035872010-02-04T14:18:02.595-06:002010-02-04T14:18:02.595-06:00Darlene -- We should all submit to the searches ju...Darlene -- We should all submit to the searches just so ALL are being checked, especially young dark complexion males.
