Loose Change: Second Edition April 27, 2006
Posted by Dustin in Movies.trackback
Almost five years after the Septeber 11th tragedies, there remain an astounding number of peculiarities surrounding the events that transpired. Fortunately, this movie provides an adept summary and analyisis of a handful oddities that have been observed. While it is not without errors (it was actually a B-25 Mitchell and not a B-52 that flew into the Empire State Building), it is generally well researched and undeniably though provoking. Is it possible that the U.S. government was somehow involved? Given the number of statisical anomalies and the "party-line" secrecy, it appears probable. One caveat: Loose Change will challenge your assumptions and ignorance and at first that can be uncomfortable to parse. Moral dilemmas (e.g. the Holocaust) usually are. Consider it your patriotic duty.
I watched this a month or two ago with Scott. I came out of it sort of the same way I came out of Fahrenheit 911, some what perplexed but overall underwhelmed – these guys who make these films just seem like hacks without credentials.
i don’t think credentials are a valid demarcator. i can understand a potential criticism of the science that comes into play (because indeed credentials are relevent there). as a movie, loose change ’s inherent validity lies in the fact that it asks and answers couter-culture questions ignored in the mainstream media. sound a bit familiar?
