As I recall, no one survived that crash so we dont know first hand what happened. What they are showing in this movie is purely assumptions and circumstantial facts so please dont undermine anyone's intelligence by saying its a history lesson. Its entertainment which has been based on actual facts that have been recreated for entertainment purposes and to make a buck, why else do you think they've only donated 10% of the first weekend's earnings?? They didnt even have the decency to donate at least 10% of all earnings!

Furthermore it really ticks me off that just because someone can actually see the difference between history lesson and entertainment, they immediately have no heart or hate the US. What type of logic is that??? I'm willing to put money down that no real history teacher/professor will ever use this movie in their classroom.

WOAH. You can put money down as to if real history teachers or professors might use this. You're not the end all/be all opinion of this.

Do you consider Shindler's List entertainment? If so that's disgusting. But guess what? We watched it as a history lesson in high school and I've heard of other teachers showing it as a history lesson. American History X? Ok while some sick people would take that as entertainment, most sane people wouldn't. And guess what? OMG one of my college professors showed this movie in class!

I stand with my opinion that anyone who thinks this movie is for entertainment has no heart and if that includes Hollywood then so be it.

ETA: PiKA I just saw your post. I think anyone who considers Passion of the Christ as entertaining is pretty sick too. Just because it's made in Hollywood doesn't mean that the public thinks it's entertaining. Hollywood may create it to make money, but I wouldn't call movies like this entertaining.
