In the film, Butler plays a Secret Service agent (ex-Secret Service agent) who is the rogue hero in the White House after a bunch of terrorists take the building hostage. Aaron Eckhart is there as the U.S. President and Morgan Freeman plays the kind of government guy who says stuff like, ?Abort! Abort!!? (If you?re wondering, ?Olympus? is apparently the Secret Service code word for the White House, hence the film?s title.)

Directed by Antoine Fuqua (?Training Day?), ?Olympus Has Fallen? isn?t even the only attack-on-the-White-House film this year. This summer sees the release of ?White House Down? starring Channing Tatum and Jamie Foxx.

The beginning of the movie will go something like this:

* Terrorists approach a checkpoint.

* Guard A unlocks secured gate and steps out to tell terrorists that they can't be there.

* Terrorists shoot guard A.

* Guard B, hearing all the gun shots, decides to step out with his gun still holstered and exclaim: "What's going on!?".

* Terrorists shoot guard B.

* Guard C turns the corner after hearing the gun fire and exclaims: "Halt!".

* Terrorists shoot guard C.

Is it me? Or does Morgan Freeman look younger in that pic... LOL that dude is a time traveller for certain. The film looks like a up and down USA *** to be honest. Come on rednecks chant "USA..... USA.... USA"

Meanwhile over in the rest of the world..... "What....... Huh.... oh... they are at it again."

didn't the "patriotic" selling feature die out a decade ago? "When our flag falls, our nation will rise".... So it takes a flag falling for you to rise up? Does that mean you weren't up before it fell? Makes no sense. On that note though, i will watch it, looks good. :)

    • Microsoft Opens Fairwater: Wisconsin AI Campus Runs as One Supercomputer via 800G Ethernet

      By +TRS-80 · Posted

      Closed-loop cooling and a custom 800G network protocol let the $7.3B campus run as one AI training machine. Microsoft confirmed June 23, 2026, that its Fairwater campus in Mount Pleasant, Wisconsin, is fully operational — and the engineering behind it makes the facility something fundamentally different from every data center that came before it. Where conventional cloud infrastructure racks up general-purpose servers and parcels out workloads to each one independently, Fairwater links hundreds of thousands of NVIDIA GB200 Blackwell GPUs into a single, coherent cluster using a two-story building design, 800-gigabit-per-second Ethernet fabric, and a proprietary networking protocol co-developed with OpenAI and NVIDIA. The result, according to Microsoft, is the closest thing to a purpose-built AI supercomputer that any company has ever placed in commercial operation. https://www.techtimes.com/articles/319205/20260627/microsoft-opens-fairwater-wisconsin-ai-campus-runs-one-supercomputer-via-800g-ethernet.htm
