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 confirms Recycle Bin bug across all versions of Windows

      By Usama Jawad96 · Posted

      Normally, I admit when a title is clickbait (unfortunately, it's become somewhat necessary in AI-dominated news sections today), but in this case, all supported versions is implied and doesn't need to be spelled out in the title. Of course, I'm covering a Patch Tuesday update but that is only available to supported Windows SKUs. All our coverage relates to supported Windows software and SKUs only unless we expressly state that it's "unsupported", "unofficial", or "third-party". I'm sorry, but supported/official SKUs don't need to be spelled out as such in every Neowin headline.

    • Apple MacBook Neo is a blessing for Windows users, here's why

      By +samw61 · Posted

      But the reality is it will work for people's needs, and they don't care about the technology that makes it. Clearly not everyone's needs, but that low end space where personal laptops were only used to type emails, watch content and browse websites, but they didn't want to do that on a small screen device. Heck, writing that out I can now see the connection and reason it'll do so well. Apple is about experience. If the experience is bad, they don't release it. Low end Windows laptop manufacturers up until this point have not taken that into consideration ever before, so slow laggy usage with brittle slimey plastic shells were common. I hope that the low end space at least creates better physical products that last a bit longer, and if Microsoft get their act together, they could also have a solid OS on such low end hardware that would actually make the experience work for what the hardware was intended for. The fact that the CPU is a "cellphone", sorry mobile phone processor is irrelevant. It's about the experience, and so far, that sounds quite solid.

      Hello, Bonjour is Apple's implementation of a multicast-DNS service, which allows devices running Apple's software and/or hardware to find each other on your local network.  I believe the Windows version was last updated around 2010. If you do not need it, you can stop and disable the Bonjour service in the Services Control Manager (filename: SERVICES.MSC).  Once you have done that, the operating system will no longer attempt to load the service. Regards, Aryeh Goretsky
