Buriel can’t take place with internet promotion 24/7.

Liberals weren’t going anyway.

I heard Rush talking about this movie on his show today. I saw the commercials on it this past week and noticed Eva Longoria a big Obama fundraiser is in it so no way in heck for me. Any movie, that has actors or actresses who are openly pulling for Obama will get not money from me.

I know about boycotting movies but the theme of this is really a fight that we're fighting now. Centralized socialist/communist against the religious supporters. Maybe you can buy another ticket and sneak in.

My grandfather always had a hatred for big government and godless leaders of Mexico. I'm going to see it ASAP.

Not showing at our 6 plex cinema yet. Five fantasy or Si Fi films, one chick flick.

Don’t know if the locals can handle a REAL drama anymore.

But Andy Garcia is in it also, so there’s reason enough to go. :)

The “tri-State” area of Maine-NH-Vt has it at exactly ONE theater- Fox Run Mall in Newington, near Portsmouth NH.

Figures.

If you do an image search on the internet for Cristeros Colgados, it brings up tons of images from the actual Cristeros War.

Tomorrow. June 2nd, is the Anniversary of Enrique Gorostieta’s death. Requiescat In Pacem to the brave Cristeros who fought unto death for Relidious Liberty.

Found this on the University of Texas Website:

General Gorostieta (snip) led a small band to the Hacienda del Valle, outside of Atotonilco in Michoacán where he decamped in a perilously exposed redoubt with firm intelligence of enemy troops in the area. He was shot in the ensuing battle on June 2nd, eventually his body was sent to Mexico City and turned over to his family. He was interred at the Panteón Español under a large stone crucifix with the epitaph:

Long live Christ the King
To the memory of the General of the Division
Enrique Gororstieta Velarde
By his wife and children
Born in Monterrey, N.L., the 18 of September 1890
God called him to his side on June 2, 1929
He was a Christian, a patriot and a gentleman
He lived and died for his ideals -
GOD, COUNTRY AND LIBERTY

Andy Garcia is a conservative so there is that to balance it out.

(Review): Even if “For Greater Glory” is considerably more sophisticated than some of its forerunners, its characters are clear-cut saints and sinners.

Buy a clue, knucklehead! Massacreing children makes someone a monster, not just a "sinner"!

Equivocating, moral-cheeseparing, Marxism-justifying, atheist-hugging, shadow-loving dim Rat! People like this reviewer are just the sort of people John Bunyan called denizens of the Vanity Fair, in his Pilgrim's Progress.

Sorry, Timesbot, but better people than you have had your number, and the number of your ilk, and the number of your name, for thousands of years. Sorry to break the news, but you are nothing new under the sun.
