Seems that way.
No, the world is as evil since the fall..Alot harder to hide it....
Evil doesn’t hide itself as much anymore or with the 24/7 news cycle we see it more.
When I was a kid I watched scary movies and was always relieved when good won over evil at the end. I noticed decades ago that movies were then beginning to show that evil got away and would strike again later - good didn’t win. Last week I listened in horror as a 16 year old boy told me gleefully about the movie “It” and that it was thrilling (in a good way) when the clown ripped off a child’s arm and started eating it. And American Horror Story - he told me about episodes and every episode featured countless unprovoked gory murders. Now there is a profound appetite for evil - according to the “law of diminishing returns”.
I wish Sorbo had gone into politics, but I sense that he would not be comfortable confronting his opponents. Kevin doesn’t seem the Pit Bull off the chain kind of fellow.
Most people are not naturally that way unless they decide be.
I want to see this movie, especially to support Sean, one of the few Trump supporters from the beginning.

Or to ignore it. That’s what people really mean when they say it has gotten more evil. Bad people used to pretend to be good people to fit in. Now, they don’t. The culture demands that we accept every sin and deviance as normal, and they are disgusting enough, culture demands that we celebrate it.
In the US, Christian culture and morality used to be the norm. Now, the depraved Natural Man is the norm and Christian morality is ridiculed.
So, yes, the world is more evil because the evil can flourish in the light of day now.
Well said!
The evil has always been there, restrained by the Holy Spirit. As has been written, that restraint has been loosened in these latter days.
Me too. Hopefully it will get to my area soon.
There used to be a policy in Hollywood, dictating that evil deeds would not go unpunished before the film was over.
That policy, seen mostly in films from silent movies up to “Clockwork Orange” has for the most part disappeared.
Today, it’s up to each director and screenwriter, how they decide to tell their story.
As I recall, it was also forbidden to have a shooter in the same frame as who he was in the process of shooting. Also, couples could be in the same bed as long as each one had a foot on the floor. I always thought it was crazy that married people in 1950s and later series slept in twin beds.
It was part of the Hayes Code. If you watch old episodes of Alfred Hitchcock Presents the show might end with the evil person seeming to get away with a crime, but in the ending monologue Hitchcock always informed the viewers that the person was eventually caught.
Sorbo grew up in Minnesota. Enough said. The guy is doing good on a nationwide basis without messing in politics.
Bkmrk.
I hope I can find a way to see this movie. I hope a lot of FReepers are doing so. Vote with your $. This seems like a good way to support quality shows and entertainment.
So there is no way to have intercourse with one foot on the floor each? Funny rule. Wonder how they thought them up.
I hear Lucille Ball insisted on sharing the same bed with her real husband of that time; Ricky Ricardo. Nobody’s feet were on the floor.
When she became pregnant with little Lucy, Lucille again insisted on appearing in front of the cameras as obviously with child. It was time for the TV world and it’s public to grow up a little bit.
I went to see the movie today...quite a few people in the theatre. It was a bit predictable, but still a nice change from the usual Hollyweird crap.
The Lucy show when she was pregnant and went into labor was hilarious.
