To think an action movie about a burning tower block with a family trapped inside is in poor taste?

Dwayne Johnson's Skyscraper - saw the trailer today and it didn't sit right..

You do know it takes longer than a year to get a film out, right?

And its not the first film like this. Towering Inferno is years and years old.

For the UK yes being so close but in the US where it’s made not at all

Isn’t it just a remake of towering inferno? It’s a USA film; not made in the U.K. and probably filmed 2 years ago.

If the trailer is just coming out the film will have been being made for at least 3-4 years.
The US in general probably isn’t aware of Grenfell and wouldn’t base their film making or releasing on it.

No

Yes so let's not make films about plane crashes, terrorist attacks, ships sinking.......

Definitely made at least 2 years ago and obviously not in the U.K., , but I’m with you OP - I think it shouldn’t go on UK Cinema release.

No longer classes as entertainment in light of what’s happened.

I know what you mean but there are films about 9/11, Titanic and other disasters/tragedies.

I remember when ben afLeck postponed the release of something like Gone Girl because of a recent event. But I'm sure this isn't always possible.

Where would you stop though?
