Loose Theory

I recently watched Loose Change...all 90 minutes of it. Loose Change is a movie that presents an alternative interpretation of the events that happened on September 11th, 2001. I wasn't able to view the whole movie in one sitting, because I found it difficult to watch. It has an overload of information, a low-budget production quality, and immature/unprofessional narration.

Am I conspiracy freak? Well, yeah, but this movie doesn't do it for me.

There are few things that the movie presents that are hard to refute:

  • The evidence at the Pentagon crash site doesn't support the official interpretation.

  • Steel frame buildings don't collapse when they burn.

  • The large amount of assets moved around before the event.



But at the same time, this alternative theory has just as many holes as the official news story:

  • "The passengers of flight 93 were flown to an airport in Cleveland and debriefed." Huh? Who are these people and where are they now?

  • I don't see how a government that can't get adequate supplies to the troops in Iraq could possibly organize something this vast and complicated.

  • What's the motivation?



Even if you don't agree with the what the movie is trying to convey, it's still worth a watch. Near the end of the film there is a clip from Fox News that's hilarious (well, sad). If millions of people didn't take the reporting from Fox News as gospel, I'd watch for the entertainment quality. They are truly delusional.
