We are horrified....

...by the new horror movie, "The Omen":
Early in the movie a shot of the World Trade Center in flames, introduced as a portent of Armageddon, sharpens this remake's sour tang of exploitation.
... horrified by the filmmakers' despicable greediness to manipulate emotion that they would appropriate and desecrate this image.

So I guess it's not "too soon" to exploit...er, see these images.

Hmmm? Directed by John Moore. That isn't a pseudonym for Michael is it? Sure would explain all the exploitive references!

Word verification: apigp - seems appropriate.

I probably only go the movie theaters about twice a year now. Hollywood, keep up the good work, and you can cut down to once a year, then never!

Could this image really be any more desecrated than it already has been?
