9/11 film by Oliver Stone, starring Nicolas Cage is in the works
Edited on Sat Jul-09-05 08:15 AM by OmmmSweetOmmm
The storyline is about Port Authority Sgt. John McLoughlin and another police officer being caught in the rubble of the WTC. Does anyone hope that this won't be so simplistic, and that Stone will try to let some light in????

1. I fear...


that he will do like JFK/Nixon. He will introduce controversial subject about the event that _have_ to be considered, but since it's a movie he won't "paste in" tons of supporting documentation then people will tie independent 9/11 researching to this movie and then poo-poo the whole thing. Yay...


We need documentaries, not movies on 9/11.

2. Unfortunately not that many documentaries are seen by the average
person. There are 9/11 documentaries out there now, and yet how many people have seen them.

3. research
If I recall, Stone's JFK was based on Jim Marrs/Crossfire.

The question is who's research will Stone base this next film on.

Also, I'm not buying the claim that the film will be based on trapped officers. Stone has spoke about the deliberate attempts at sabotage on JFK during production, he's probably playing his cards close to his chest.

7. The book that inspired JFK was...
'On The Trail of the Assassins' by Jim Garrison. I'm sure that Stone used several sources for his film, though.

5. Oliver Stone and 9-11
From:
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=104x4063325

Everyone here should watch JFK again as well as JFK2 and you will see that Stone did a very accurate job in telling the story in his drama-documentary. What he didn't get is how the assassination is directly tied to the Bush Crime Family/BFEE. I have JFK2 on DVD and it is mind blowing what is now known. I thought it was done very well. At the end is a short documentary/trailer for Dave vonKleist's "9-11: In Plane Site" . . .

JFKII (video/DVD):

I hope Stone does a powerful human story, as well as bringing out as many visual proofs, eyewitness accounts, and evidence to implicate our government/BCF and how they are lying about 9-11, using all the original footage that is available to draw from to tell this story. It is time for everyone to wake-up and smell the MIHOP.

History will prove Oliver Stone was right about JFK. People still need to wake-up on that. Watch JFK2, it doesn't disappoint, you will wake-up.

More power to him in telling the truth on 9-11. The sooner the better. Our world is "going to hell in a hand basket," (whatever that cliche means).

6. If the 9/11 CTers have lost Oliver Stone...
Perhaps he is playing his cards close to his vest. But I don't see anything, anything at all, in that press release that would suggest Stone's heading toward Controlled Demolitionville or Flight 77 Denialtown.

I'm just saying.

Whitewashcity for "spreading conspiracies" in JFK and Nixon and now he's looking forward to his golden retirement.

11. Nothing Suggests Controlled Demolition
Maybe the press release of Stone's story about two guys trapped in the
basement of the WTC coming out at the same time that William Rodriguez
and that other guy both get coverage about their experiences
in the basement of the WTC suggests some connection to those guys.
