I believe that concerns like these should be on the BOTTOM of a list of our priorities. Who the FUCK gives a SHIT about Spiderman or Friends?
You know what I wanted to see? All those fine, innocent people and firemaen and police officers go home alive.
Big Trouble - FUCK IT!
Sidewalks of NY - Who cares!
Spiderman - FUCK IT!
Friends - ALWAYS SUCKED! I liked it better the 1st time, when it was called Seinfeld.
Emmey's - DUNG!!!!
Oh, and remeber to....

My problem is that they're trying to deny the existence of the WTCs. They existed. They're a part of history.

That is such a touchy subject.
I agree that this is not an "important" issue right now, but it is something else to think about.
How will Hollywood reat to this????
Will they exploit it??? (I don't put it past them)
do you eliminate shot of the WTC in prviously shot, unreleased video????
Spiderman is a perfect example... what is the right thing to do there??? I agree with both sides... whille showing footage of the WTC might be insensitive, do you just want to simply erase it??? and not remember what was once two of the greatest buildings in the world???
What about other aspects of entertainment... all shows based in NY, Friends, Sopranos, Everybody loves Raymond, etc.
Wrestinlg, does Stone cold still attck the U.S golden boy Kurt Angle???? Do they start exploiting Angle patriotism to make him the ultimate face????
This may not be the most important stuff now, but in the next few weeks all thes shows are going to be on, all these movies will be coming out, and Hollywood is notorious for using real life drama as a money making scheme.

They did that with the Gulf War, with the Parents Televison Counsel on their ass 24/7 it's doubtfull they will make another angle like that.
The WWF is said to do something special at the live Smackdown! tonight, weather it be a promo by Kurt or even Vince McMahon is unknown.
I posted some wrestlers reactions to the terrorism in the Wrestling section of RFnet.

I tried to watch a movie last night and I really couldn't get into it. It may take a while for the numbness to go away.

This just in: Sony is eliminating all shots of the WTC from the final print of Spider-Man.
I mean COME ON!!! Teaser? Fine, ok, I'm sort of cool with that. But the FINAL MOVIE!! They existed, don't cheapen the memory of the people who died and the Towers by eliminating it from memory. Use the millions it will take to digitally eliminate it from the final film and send it to the familys!!!
