What do you think the odds are that Hollywood (or a reasonable facsimile thereof) will come out with an Islam "epic?" I think it's only a matter of time.

They tried that once back in the 70s with a film called Mohammed Messenger of God. Since retitled The Message. Anthony Quinn starred. Is is expressly forbidden to show the visual image of Mohammed in Islam. This film was made by muslims so Quinn played a relaitive of Mo and all dialog and appearance was offscreen. A small sect of muslims didn't know this and took a theater showing the movie hostage in Washington. There would be loads of fun if a movie actually did show mad Mo visually.

All Mel Gibson has to do to get back in the good graces of the Hollywood moguls is to remake "Masada".

Oh, wait... you mean an Islamofascist epic? Princess whatserface wasn't wearing a burqa in Aladdin.
Seriously... I was sorta surprised they did not even nominate "Osama," an Islamic but anti-Islamofascist movie which did quite well in other awards shows. Was Afghanistan unable to sponsor it as its national entry?
