Alright, so Oliver Stone's World Trade Center came and went without offending anyone or pissing on the victims of 9/11. We dodged a bullet there folks. Care to try it again?
Get ready, we might have to. Our friends over at Filmstalker have dug up a story from the NY Post which says yet another World Trade Center movie may be on the way.
This movie is about another last men out of the WTC, William Rodriguez. Rodriguez's story starts out heroically. A janitor at the Trade Center, on the day of the attack he was the only man with a master key to all the doors in the building. So, in a bit of bravery he led Firefighters up the stairs of the North Tower unlocking doors for them as he went. He made it to floor 39 before he evacuated, and in the process saved hundreds of lives. He made it out of the buildling just before it collapsed, but was buried under rubble for an hour before being rescued.
That's the good part. The bad part is that after it was all over he launched a lawsuit against the government accusing President Bush of planning the attacks himself.
So, who do you go to when you're a 9/11 hero full of conspiracy theories against the government? Charlie Sheen of course. Rodriguez is reportedly talking to Sheen and Esai Morales about funding a project to bring his story to theaters. He says that Charlie's on board, and told him he'd "be honored" to turn his story into a movie. Writer David Marconi is reportedly already part of the project.
Marconi insists that the movie will focus on Rodirguez's 9/11 heroism, but I find that a little hard to believe. Sheen has gained some notoriety as a 9/11 conspiracy theorist in the past, and if you're not going to explore his story from that angle, then why bother to go to him over some other Hollywood actor?
If you thought audiences weren't ready to see faithful re-enactments of the events of the day, just wait until they have to react to a 9/11 film filled with accusatory conspiracy theories. Wait, we already had that didn't we? It was called Fahrenheit 9/11 and it outgrossed United 93 and World Trade Center combined. If he does it, Charlie Sheen just might end up getting very very rich.
Drug abusing wife beater.
But the knees bent the wrong way so it must be real!!!
What would a chair look like if your knees bent the other way??
Why doesn`t Charlie make a movie about how Hollywood is filled with brats who get high and screw hookers while never having to get a real job in their lives because their daddy is famous?
Maybe he could improve the ratings of the movie if he got a part for his old porn star girl friend.
He picked a bad week to start sniffing glue.
It will be interesting to see how they do the scene where the UFOs, piloted by illegal aliens, replace the Muslim highjackers in the four airliners with "neo-cons" and Haliburton employees.
Oh, and then we must not forget, it was a train that hit the pentagon. Not a plane. The plane was shot down over the ocean the day before using a time travel ray.
ok, I am off to listen to more Coast to Coast AM. But why turn on the radio when I can just go to some liberal site and have my head filled with insanity?
Who cares about what Charlie Sheen says ?
He is a drunk, a skunk, and a creep !
If it weren't for the low standards of Television(as well as the Emmy awards, apparently) Chuckie Sheen would have been a washout by now !
And your name isn't "Sheen" anyway.
what, he has finsihed with prostitutes, so he is trying to do the same to the rest of us...
I thought about Charlie while watching the Discovery program on Sunday night. What an moron he is.
Activism/Chapters not
I confess I'd never heard of Rodriguez before. His story is that he felt an explosion in the basement of the North Tower just before plane impact. That is such an obviously bogus scenario, I'd like to see it get better publicity so that the 36% who supposedly believe the official version is a lie have something to defend themselves. That makes it a "choice"rather than a "referendum."
Forget the blackjack.
LOL, LOL, LOL. I just knew it.
