Wow. I have to admit that this is an unexpected piece of news. I’ve mentioned before on this site that i’m a 9/11 nut. I could watch pretty much anything on the topic of the September 11th terrorist attacks and remain interested. Out of all of the conspiracy documentaries circulating around the cyber universe, Loose Change is probably the most controversial and the most popular. Dylan Avery put the film together after scrapping his plans to shoot a fictional account of the 9/11 terrorist attacks. Through his research, he became convinced that 9/11 was an inside job, and thus Loose Change was born. And reborn. And reborn again. Yes, the film has undergone several ‘editions’ due to ongoing investigative reports. Personally, I think it’s just an example of the kind of innacuracies that can ultimately alienate viewers. The overall tone of the film is aggressively stand-off-ish, and ignores any other opinions except its own. As a film, it’s put together alright, but the narration and music is fucking horrible. That’s just my opinion.
Cinematical has just posted about a possible distribution deal with Magnolia Pictures. According to The New York Post, the studio is interested in distributing the latest edition of the doc, Loose Change: Final Cut, with one major (or minor?) change. That horrible narrartion will be replaced by the soothing sounds of one of the most famous 9/11 conspiracy theorists in the world. No, not Ed Begley Jr., but none other than Charlie Sheen! Some may remember his appearance on the Alex Jones radio show in which he expresses his concern regarding the governments involvement in the terrorist attacks. Well it looks like he’s decided to lend his name to the film, adding the kind of credibility that only the star of Hot Shots Part Duex could bring to this project. Mark Cuban, owner of Magnolia Pictures, had this to say:
“We are having discussions about distributing the existing video with Charlie’s involvement as a narrator, not in making a new feature. We are also looking for productions with an opposing viewpoint. We like controversial subjects, but we are agnostic to which side the controversy comes from.”
As much as i’m interested in this topic, I simply can’t believe that this internet video is getting the kind of release that Magnolia Pictures has planned. Sure, the information is interesting…but the presentation is way too one sided and immature. What do you guys think? Are you willing to shell out the cash for a video you can see for free on the internet? Does Loose Change deserve the attention it has recieved? Check the film out below, and while you’re at it, visit Popular Mechanics ‘Debunking The 9/11 Myths’ page and have a listen to their podcast for the alternate take on the 9/11 theories.

I’m a sucker for 911 stuff too. I loved United 93, didn’t like World Trade Center.
Loose Change’s narration may be kinda nerdy, but the editing style is quite good. I like the quick cuts and amount of data.
ITS LIKE WHEN YOUR OWN MOTHER RAPES YOU AND THEN BLAMES IT ON THE MONSTER IN THE CLOSET. THE ONE YOU WILL NEVER SEE BECAUSE IT RAPES YOUR SOUL WHEN YOU SLEEP. AND EVEN THOUGH ALL EVIDENCE OF NATURE AND PHYSICS TELLS YOUR MOTHER RAPED YOU ITS EASIER TO BELIVE YOUR MOTHER THAT MONSTER IS AFTER YOU. YOU HAVE 2 CHOICES, STAY SLEEPING AND SUFFER IN FEAR, PAIN AND MISSUNDERSTANDING OR AWAKE, ….. INTO LOVE, TRUTH AND UNDERSTANDING. …. FOR ONLY TRUTH SHELL SET YOU FREE. NOT THE WAR MACHINE OR NATIONALISM OR ANY OTHER ILLUSION YOU ARE UNABLE TO BRAKE FROM. PEACE VLAD
Vlad, you are a true poet. Your use of the caps lock button inspires.
Could Marc Cuban simply shelf the move? Is there any possibility of that? Supposedly his company was behind the subpoena to remove lots of 9/11 truth vids from Youtube by a poster by the name of Halfaxion.
Perhaps he was just eliminating the competition?
All I do on my spare time is research anything and everything about 9/11. I too am obsessed! I read everything, watch anything and talk about it all the time….why? Becase of “Loose Change”
It was that movie that sparked my interest and at one time I would of laughed at anyone who suggested it was an inside job.
The music and narration does suck and it is one sided but thenagain, so were the lies in The 9/11 Commission Report
Since American media is asleep, when other creative people try to step up, they’re often criticized for technical or other reasons.
What’s happeneing is this: artists are picking up where lamestream media leaves off.
I AM VERY GLAD. If the media sleep, the people sleep.
not many people 100% accept 9/11, but that doesnt mean the alternatives like Loose Change are actually any good. Loose Change is the biggest piece of shit excuse for a documentary ever.
The American people are the most ignorant and arrogant group on the planet . The reason is that main stream media is owned by the rich .The media is really owned by ALL the American citizens. The Federal Trade Commission
has given it away . Everone has their price.
I think Loose Change is pretty good. They ask the right questions and their answers make sense . After all where are the WMD’s ?
Loose change is right on .
