I'm never ecstatic or enthusisastic over movies of any type and I wouldn't use those words in connection with this movie, either. I'm not sure what words I'd use because there are just too many emotions tied to the words to describe accurately how I feel about it.

I haven't seen it yet because I can't bear the thought of watching it in a crowded theater. I will most likely be by myself the first time I watch it. James can't stand to see me cry. The trailer did me in but I'm not ashamed to admit it because I remember.

Not the kind of movie I would see at the theater.
Though I just watched a comedy called "Click" with adam sandler, and one bit of the movie had me really sad, well made me think.

i have seen that trailer before. looks like it should be a good movie. i probably won't see in the theater either. haven't been to the movies in 2 years or so. we used to go all the time, but i am alone now and that's no fun.

i know what you mean about it being kind of sad. has a bit of truth to it though, as most of us do in a sense fast forward threw our lives without even knowing it. i did find it hillarious though when he woke up a fat man. :D

I agree

... because there are just too many emotions tied to the words to describe accurately how I feel about it.QUOTE]

When you're from the miserable, dehumanizing coal camps of West Virginia, as I and most of those kids who died were, there are special meanings and symbolisms embedded in it that makes it especially hard to watch.

But, do see it.

And don't be surprised if it gets an Oscar nomination for Best Picture.

It goes a bit beyond that for me, you see. My family was neighbors to the family of one of the plane crash victims. I didn't know him nearly as well as his youngest sister whom I've known for decades now but still...

That's why I will most likely have to watch it the first time completely alone.

Well, I don't claim any expertise with the subject matter except with what happened directly afterwards from our perspective of being neighbors but it will be interesting to see the movie.

I've started discussion boards twice in my life. The first one convinced I hate running them. The second one someone promised to run it. The first got off the ground but after awhile there was too much fighting and bickering. The second one never did because the person who was supposed to run it bailed before it had a chance and I wasn't going to.
