Will they do one on Mohammed (piss be upon him)? Doubt it...

A movie on Mohammad WAS done some years ago. One of the themes of the movie was to NOT show Mohammad's face.
It too was a YAWNER.

Oh, I remember that one.

They couldn’t even mention Mohammed’s name - they called it “The Prophet”.

That movie got several people killed when some muzzies took over a building in protest.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mohammad,_Messenger_of_God

In a film review, The New York Times reported that “when the film was scheduled to premier in the United States another Muslim extremist group staged a siege against the Washington, D.C. chapter of the B’nai B’rith under the mistaken belief that Anthony Quinn played Mohammed in the film, threatening to blow up the building and its inhabitants unless the film’s opening was cancelled.

The standoff was resolved” after the deaths of a journalist and policeman, but “the film’s American box office prospects never recovered from the unfortunate controversy.”[1]
