The thing is, none of these films were sitting around 'in the can'..."Black Hawk Down", "We Were Soldiers", etc., were all made within the past 2 to 3 years and were planned to be released in the fall of 2001 and winter/spring of 2002... >War films have always been popular. No they haven't. At least, not films that show war in a favorable light; John Wayne had a hard time trying to make his pro-war films profitable in the late 1960s, because the viewing public was turning against the Vietnam War and wasn't in the mood to watch Wayne's simplistic jingoism... And war films were definitely NOT popular prior to WWII; and they waned in popularity in the 1950s...so no, war films are NOT always popular, just as westerns aren't always popular or musicals or mysteries or monster films; genres go thru phases of popularity, waxing in popularity in one era and waning in popularity in another... >Your theory is an interesting one, and I tend to agree with you, having >thought about it myself. But there hasn't been much evidence at all to >suggest that these movies were all part of a "master plot" which resulted in >the attack on the WTC and our subsequent war, other than the timeline. Well of course there wouldn't be overt evidence, other than it being mighty strange that Hollywood en masse decided in the late 1990s that pro-war themed films would suddenly become popular, and 'just happened' to start making these films so that their collective release would occur after 9/11/2001... Again, none of these films were 'in the can'...they are recent creations whose releases were planned to occur starting in mid-autumn of 2001, and it is THAT timing that is so suspicious...
