View Full Version : A conspiracy theory of my own.

I have concocted a theory regarding the transformation of Loose Change: The Fictional Movie into Loose Change: The Documentary. Consider:

The "official story" is that Dylan, a failed film school applicant, decided to prove the man wrong by making an independent movie about how he, along with his friends, discover that 9/11 was an inside job. I'll let Dylan finish the story:

Upon researching for the movie, it became apparant that the subject matter may not have been entirely fiction. Over two years time, adding more and more information, the fictional movie evolved into what it is today; a documentary.

But are we being told the whole truth? Take a look at the LTW crew page (http://loosechange911.com/crew.shtml), and scroll down to Kristy Kissner:

Kristina began her involvement with Loose Change and Louder Than Words in 2004 when she was casted as "Kim the Waitress" in the original fictional production of Loose Change. Those scenes essentially turned into hour-long outtakes and Loose Change: The Movie was indefinitely postponed for obvious reasons.

Something does not add up here. Dylan claims the switch to documentary occurred whilst doing "research". But according to this information, filming has already begun with "hour-long outtakes". I know that sometimes, filming of a movie may commence before the script is finalised, but I have a simpler idea:

Dylan, although aware of the 9/11 conspiracy theories, was pressing ahead with the fictional movie. It was only when filming commenced when he realised what a huge job directing actually was. The "hour-long outtakes" must have been discouraging.

Then, perhaps inspired by "In Plane Sight", it dawned upon him that stitching other peoples video clips together into a "documentary" would be much less work than actually directing.

In short: Loose Change became a documentary because filming a real movie sounded like too much hard work.

Thoughts?

who in the right mind films hour-long scenes? and multiples ones at that, if kristinas comments are to be taken at face value

I doubt she wrote it herself. It seems to have a lot of Dylan-spin on it.

yeah, im also fairly certain the intended meaning is "the scenes became an hours worth of outtakes when the project was scrapped" rather than "multiple hour-long scenes became outtakes when the project was scrapped"

And if Dylan hadn't been a twice failed film school applicant, he might have known the difference. ;)

Do you suppose his notion of appropriate scene length might have had something to do with the failures of his applications?

"I'm planning an action-adventure movie, with multiple hour-long scenes so that we can properly establish the character of 'Kim the Waitress'."

"Next!!!!"

I'm pretty sure I've seen a DVD which fits that description, though it wasn't classified as 'action-adventure'
