Me: "Sometime, 50 year's from now, someone's gonna make a movie called '9-11', and we're all gonna look back and be very sorry that we went and watched movies like 'Titanic' and 'Pearl Harbor'--except for me, 'cause I didn't go and see those movies." Me: ~Shariq Ansari Omar: lol Me: you like? Omar: 7.2/10 Me: thanks. Me: you know its true tho' Omar: yeah Me: which is why i still refuse to see any disaster movie "based on a true story" Omar: actualy, no Omar: we wont feel sorry Me: what will we feel then, O seer of the future? Omar: it wont occur to us that titanic the movie ever existed Me: after getting 11 academy awards? Me: methink's you are mistaken. Omar: so how often do u think of it Me: its not that people will THINK of it constantly man, its the fact that they'll remember that they went and saw titanic and pearl harbor. Omar: no they wont Omar: no one's going to even care Me: i'm talking about all of the people alive NOW. Me: the teenagers of that time wouldn't give a rat's ass about it. Omar: yeah, less then 10% will even consider considering to give that thought a thought Omar: u'll be like the only one, and maybe me ... because i would remember ur quote Me: ::shrugs:: all i know is that 9-11: The Motion Picture blockbuster will be very real, and i know that i'm not going to pay ANY money to The AOL Time Warner Disney Comcast & Associates Company to go and see it. Omar: oh i see ur viewpoint, u dont want a reenactment Me: i'll probably end up pirating it, cause nobody should make money off of such a tragedy. Omar: but i woudl like to see one, cause i know it woudl be good Me: ^_~ Omar: i think ppl should to keep memory alive Omar: dude did the name titanic mean nething to u before the movie? you never saw it, but after the movie, ppl began to think about it, and how many ppl died again Omar: if it werent 4 that movie, i'd sink my titanic model Omar: as for pearl harbor, i'd remember it, but.....i dont know, maybe THAT was a bad one Omar: not titanic though Me: actually it did mean something. Me: i was very fascinated with it before the movie. Omar: did u actually go out of ur way to learn stuff about it Omar: if u saw the movie, u'd prob know some more tid bits Me: i wasn't hardcore about it. Omar: and so what if its' a recreation? Me: but i thought it was an interesting subject. Omar: it's a damn good one Me: its a bastardization; a romanticization. Me: they turned it into a god damn love story. Me: the same thing with pearl harbor. Omar: cause there were prob like 20 of those going on Omar: well Me: and they'll do it again in 9-11 Omar: not pearl harbor Omar: it was true Omar: the couple that jumped off the building Me: EXACTLY MY POINT! Me: they'll flesh that out and sell it to people on memorial day. Me: or on 9-11 Omar: the results are still the same if u didnt have that Omar: except for the grammy Omar: ppl remember the tragedy Omar: and realize how real it was Me: no they don't. its just a romantic dream to most of mainstream america. Me: you and me, we're intelligent. Omar: maybe if ur in 6th grade it is Me: we start to THINK about these things. Omar: but when ur in HS and above, u view it differently......i think Omar: u have a point there about mainstream america Omar: well if ur going to convince neone else, u'll have to staple this convo onto the quote Me: no dude. when you and I are/were in HS, we were in HONORS classes Me: with (mostly) intelligent people. Omar: *thinks back to drivers ed* ok i see ur point Me: see? Omar: drivers ed was the worst class ever cause of all the stupid ppl Omar: we spent 1 day going over traffic lights Me: those people didn't give a rat's ass about the titanic, or pearl harbor. Omar: stop using the term rat's ass, that's disgusting, use something like give a .... i dunno but somethin else Me: sh*t? Omar: that works Me: ok. Me: but you know what i'm saying right? Omar: yup Me: so yeah. all of us SMART people are gonna be like "damn...i feel stupid now." Omar: hehe
