I forced myself to watch (for you) the online trailer to the upcoming film about United’s Flight 93, the flight where passengers bravely disrupted the hijacker’s 9/11 plot to destroy the White House. It’s being billed as an “unflinching drama” made by “acclaimed filmmaker” Paul Greengrass (who directed “Bloody Sunday,” and “The Bourne Supremacy”), but I don’t see how this endeavor, even if it sincerely pays homage to the heroic passengers, is going to fly.

I’m thinking that while our senses might be titillated by the idea of the movie, our souls will not tolerate it. My prediction: Large numbers of people will refuse to see this film when it opens April 28th, but DVD sales this summer will be more robust.

What’s your guess?
