Wait, I just figured out how a film named “Noah” can be made that has no Biblically accurate parts in it.

The film is about a DIFFERENT Noah.

Yeah, that’s it.

I’m not familiar with Doug Giles, but thus was an unimpressive smarmy and empty essay.

Not often one gets to use smarmy, but this fits it to a tee.

If an urgent warning is given to the public about a particular food item that has been laced with ARSENIC by some criminal element wishing to indiscriminately and randomly harm the public — are you going to want to go out and EAT IT?! ... LOL ...

This atheist director said he made the LEAST BIBLICAL ‘biblical movie’ ever ... and he’s filled it with his liberal, atheist and ‘green’ environmentalism, global warming propaganda ... and YOU are curious to see it?!

Haven’t been to a theater in years. No need to pump the liberal BS and like they said, nothing has sparked my interest to go be packed in a room with a bunch of idiots!

I have been thinking how awesome a movie about the siege of Malta would be, I wish I had the bucks to fund it.

The problem is that many Christian movie-makers cant make a movie that is even worth watching. They either have terrible writing, bad acting, lame special effects or a message that is so in your face that many people feel like they just went to church. Even the quality of the image itself is almost like it is made to go straight to VHS.

Movies are supposed to be entertaining with a message that the viewer arrives at because the production is so well done. The Passion of the Christ is the only one that seemed to get above the usual lameness.

Who does he think is going to back, promote, distribute, and produce-on the regular Hollywood scale of movies, not necessarily the blockbuster scale-a movie written and filmed from a Biblically Christian PoV?

I have boycotted Hollywood movies and teevee for decades, because even when they produce something “Christian-based”, it’s a given that the Biblical Christian view will be blasphemed.

The problem is ... God’s written Word doesn’t translate into multi-media format. God Could have chosen any time period with any technology for the transmission of his Word. Don’t think so ... well, he made the entirety of creation in six days and he brought about a world-wide flood ... :-) ...

BUT ... God chose the written word for his method of communicating to mankind and he didn’t create a mini-series to do it (God could have!).

Don’t ever depend upon a movie to convey accurately the written word of God. There was a reason He chose the method he did.

The following “movie” or documentary - is not a mindless entertainment movie - but it gets down to what the Flood and Noah was all about. From that standpoint, it’s a hundred times better than this atheist director spouting his leftist, atheistic, ‘green’ environmentalism PROGANDA at you.

The only reason people will now go to see it is over all the controversy over it. I couldn’t see the “Passion of Christ” that movie Mel Gibson made (using his own resources) was because it was too violent (friends who saw told me). Hollyweird will never ever make a movie that would be accurate. They’ll come close but never will be at the level where Christians will agree it portrays accurate Biblical accuracy.

It is a movie. No more. No less. It’s just there for entertainment. Not sure why some don’t get that.

Since you are only here since October 18, 2012 I have no doubt that you are not familiar with him. I have posted numerous articles by him and so have others. Not only is he pro life, he is also Pro second amendment. His daughter Hannah helped take down ACORN in 2009, when she partnered up with James O’Keefe to produce revealing undercover videos. His other daughter Regis, started the campaign “Girls Just Wanna Have Guns,” which, among other things, aims to instruct young women on how to protect and defend themselves against predators.

We would if Hollywood would let us. I wrote a Script “Forgotten Valor” about one forgotten hero in the Battle of the Bulge and I had one company Alcon Entertainment read it and then they never called back because I had a small Christian undertone to it. I had one Producer tell me that Hollywood just isn’t interested in the Private Ryan type of movies any more.. I guess if I had made the two lead Characters homos who fell in love and had a sick sex scene in it I would have won an Academy Award, Golden Globe and Cannes Film Festival award. Hollywood makes crap. Thanks for my Rant.

I very seldom go to movies. In the last 14 years I have probably been 5 or six times, and the movie has to be really good. Sometimes I plan to see a movie, but never get around to it.
