Looks like this might be worth watching if for no other reason just to see if they butcher it up. Also, we'll have to see if Russell Crowe can pull it off as Noah.

Be sure to read some of the inane youtube comments too. Lends real meaning to what Noah must have faced.

I have heard it discussed that this movie will be a shill for environmentalism. Although there is no proof of that as yet, it will be interesting to see if that is the case.

Since it involves the Hollyweird Establishment, I don’t doubt the allegation one bit.

We shall see.

I’ll probably see it. If nothing else it at least looks to be an epic movie. Just take it as a movie and nothing more.

The preview is so bad ... I’m sure the full movie is even worse.

See this review of the script:

Noah: Environmentalist Wacko

Excerpt:

"Having got a chance to read an undated version of the script for Noah I want to warn you. If you were expecting a Biblically faithful retelling of the story of the greatest mariner in history and a tale of redemption and obedience to God you’ll be sorely disappointed. Noah paints the primeval world of Genesis 6 as scorched arid desert, dry cracked earth, and a gray gloomy sky that gives no rain – and all this, caused by man’s “disrespect” for the environment. In short, an anachronistic doomsday scenario of ancient global warming."

Tackling any biblical subject generally means controversy won’t be far behind, and “Noah” has been no exception.

The Hollywood Reporter last month said Paramount Pictures and Aronofsky had been going back and forth, debating audience test results. Screenings with Jewish, Christian and general audiences reportedly yielded some troubling results, though it was unclear exactly what turned off viewers.

Sources told the Hollywood Reporter that the debate had to do with not alienating Christian audiences; some have said Aronofsky planned to make Noah look like an environmentalist (he once described the Bible character as “the first environmentalist”). Either way, Paramount reportedly suggested some changes that the director was resistant to.

It’s not yet know what will happen during the final cut or who — the studio or Aronofsky — will get the definitive call on the movie’s ending.

At the heart of the matter is this question: Will Aronofsky and Paramount remain true to the biblical text, or will they deviate for entertainment’s sake? That decision could impact how faith-based audiences react.

“Noah” will dock in theaters on March 28, 2014.
