September 11
Okay, September 11 was a tragic day for everyone and should be remembered as such but this new movie with Nic Cage is just so American that the reality of the situation is completely lost. I'm not at all against a film being made about this event, but this movie just looks.... stupid.
Don't get me started on the ending tagline "When the whole world saw evil..." I'm pretty sure that was only the American president, the media and Oprah that used "evil". The rest of the world saw it as a terrorist attack, and one of many that happens every day all around the world. yes, it was bigger, but not exactly out of the ordinary.
I remember a great line I read a few years ago, "Terrorism happens every day in every country around the world, but when it happens to America, it's an act of war".

Welcome. My name's Brad and I'm about to start my fifth year in Tokyo, Japan though lately I've found that that defines me as badly as saying I'm from Sydney, Australia.
