Hollywood wants us to forget...

I wanted to share my outrage and sadness after watching the movie "Serendipity". I found out that the many World Trade Center scenes had been digital removed from the movie.

I had watched the movie for the first time the other night after finding the movie at Wal-Mart. Seeing all the New York skyline views, I was surprised not to have seen the World Trade Center even once. The movie was scheduled for theatre release in Oct. 2001. A quick Google search found many stories mentioning the removal of the towers from this film (and others) so as to be "sensitive". Here is just a couple sites I ran across...

I could understand if the movie was terrorist or violent related. But it was a simple romantic flick. I don't believe we need to "erase" painful memories from our American history. Should we delete John F. Kennedy or the Space Shuttle from all recorded film?

Knowing that all the twin tower images were removed, really took something from the movie. Serendipity was a good flick, but I can't watch it again without searching the skyline and feeling cheated. I just wanted to vent a little bit, and wondered if this bothered anyone else?
