    Reminds me of the Tim Allen movie after 911 that had to reshoot the ending because it involved a plane crashing into buildings.

      That movie being so kicked around post-9/11 was a shame. I thought it was a perfectly charming little flick with a great cast. The book was much better but who knows how much the reshoots contributed to that?

        Interesting. I listen to a podcast that debunks Alex Jones’ podcast, and so I know that the imagery of a big plane crashing into a skyscraper predates 9/11 by years.

        Also, the guy with the ice cream was a nice detail in that movie.

      Do you mean Big Trouble? It wasn’t reshot and didn’t have a plane crashing into buildings. It was just delayed because it was originally going to release on September 21, 2001 and they thought showing people smuggling a bomb onto an airplane would be a little unpalatable 10 days after 9/11.

      Great movie though. If you want to see what airport security was like just before 9/11, this is probably the last depiction of it.
