I saw it yesterday.... It made my guts churn like I knew it would. It
brought some tears to my eyes remembering "that" day.. I am glad that
the movie was made because I think that American memories can be short
(mine included) and time tends to dull the pain of the fact that there
are folks out there that would like nothing more than to see thousands
of us burn. Remember the celebrations over our 3000 dead? Yea... I'm
glad I saw it...

Funny thing is it came in second to some stupid ass Robin William's RV
movie... Go figure....

It's not quite that simple

# Title Gross Theaters $/theater Budget
1 RV $16,414,767 - 3,639 - $4,510 $50m
2 U 93 $11,478,360 - 1,795 - $6,394 $15m

Basically, it cost about 1/4 of what "RV" cost, it's in half as many
theaters, and in each theater it's making 50% more. If I was funding
films, I know which one I'd rather own.
