Makes Moses all too human?
WTH was he, a puppy?

Unless the Cecil B. DeMille version has somehow vanished from the vaults, a new version of The Ten Commandments is wholly unnecessary.

Stick with Charelton Heston's movie.
Remakes are typically lacking.

I understand your point. Yet I like my heros "larger than life" I want to be INSPIRED by what they did right. The Bible presents the whole story about Moses including his human weaknesses. Moses weakness is overcome by Gods strenght. Somehow I don't think TV will get it right.

If some viewers ultimately find this remake too much of a downer, Dornhelm is OK with that, as long as they come to his "Commandments" with an open mind. It's the zealots who insist DeMille's version is somehow untouchable that make him see red.
It is the rereads that always catch my attention. Intersting use of words and perspectives by the author of the article.

No doubt they will try to portray Moses as a homosexual.

Whereas Heston's Moses was a towering, thunder-voiced pillar of authority, Scott's Moses is plagued by self-doubt. He is virtually horrified to learn that God has selected him for such a formidable task, since he is painfully aware of his inner flaws. Actually, this jibes with the accounts in Exodus pretty well. It wasn't until he became God's spokesman, as it were, that Moses became any type of leadership figure.

Ignorant fool.

I saw a preview of this on Saturday, it looks like it might be very true to the scripture. It showed Moses stuttering when he was talking to God, it looked interesting.

I saw a preview of this the other night... the "Parting of the Red Sea" scene looks EXACTLY like the one from DeMille's movie. With all the CG technology available today I wonder why they didn't render it using computers?

Personally, although C.B. DeMille's version was truly epic, I thought that the TNT story of Moses,
http://us.imdb.com/title/tt0117086/
was a less overblown and more accurate telling.

"My characters are real. The location is real. There is as much reality costumewise, researchwise [as we could manage]. I had three different religious advisers, a Muslim, a Christian and a rabbi, going through every word of the script. I wanted to be more true to the story and its characters." I hate to be nit-picky, but what is the Muslim (and the Christian, for that matter) doing there?
And why the generic descriptions (Muslim, Christians) for those two faiths, but a position title (Rabbi) for the other?

...I thought Moses WAS human."Making him human" is usually Hollywood-speak for claiming he's a vegetarian, pot-smoking, openly homosexual, far-left "social activist."
