Sure the twin towers thing has been


Brought up before.. But first time watching in ten years or more. The scene where Kevin is on the towers looking in amazement cuts to a four with airport security on it.

reply

That's because on every DVD and tv release after the 9/11 Attacks the Scene has been cut.

Such an good scene though it's a Shame it's missing in the newer versions.

Glad I have the pre 9/11 DVD release!

Can I see ?

Why would they remove the twin towers from the movie? The buildings get destroyed by Islamic terrorists, so let's try to erase the buildings from cinematic history. Taking the "terrorists win" to another level.

reply

Because that's just what happens in the world I'm afraid. It's like they want to erase it and forget about it when it's a hard thing to forget

It's much better with that scene in the movie :)

reply

I agree, that scene in the movie is special and should be preserved. The people lost in in that event should not be forgotten, and neither should the structural marvels that the twin towers were be forgotten.

reply

It's sad really. I still can't watch Tora!Tora!Tora! since they removed the attack on Pearl Harbor.

reply

If you're gonna have a freakin' World War Two film, why'd you wanna cut out the bombing that started it all for our involvement..agree totally (and I saw Tora.. in 1970 in its orig.release..) with you and anyone else on that one. Even worse that the trade center thing.,.

odshooter22 So you still believe terrorists did it lol? Man, you really need to do some research and learn the REAL truth...... escape the matrix.

reply

con-59873 It's not missing, it's still on the DVD/blu ray that I have.

Watched my DVD yesterday, the twin towers scene is still in it.

reply

Sorry a door not a four

reply

That's why they're deleting the boards... to hide the truth!

reply

This just seems dumb. Are they going to do the same to King Kong 1976, the Ghostbusters movies, the original Superman movies, For Richer or Poorer, Jungle to Jungle, Die Hard with a Vengeance, and every other movie with the twin towers in it? Can't we just see them and say, "That's how things used to be."? This whole thing is dumb.


reply

Agreed, it's ridiculous. I've never understood this whole censorship thing with the WTC towers. It's not like Japanese movies cut out the entire city of Hiroshima, which was a much bigger tragedy by any measure.
