I agree with our focus on Christ..... I see very few movies because Hollywood puts out GARBAGE.

I am no fan of Ted Turner...but when the RARE good film with Christian values comes out...Christians need to SUPPORT it...

Hollywood puts out garbage without challenge because we sit at home and wait for the 100% perfect movie...which will NEVER come.

I choose to ACT rather than sit. I believe we need to TAKE BACK our country from the anti-Christian left...and this is just one very small start.

Ted Turner - Christian values ? Are you BLIND? Please take time and look outside your thoughts on this one. If Satan made a RARE good film with Christian values would you support it?

Not much difference.

Gopher,

I do not have support Ted Turner or his media empire if I do not choose. That is my right as an free-willed American consumer.

Christian values have been appearing in mainstream films more often than you think. If you were to jump in the way-back machine to "Chariots of Fire" (5 time Academy Award winning film, including Best Picture) you would know that Christian themes in movies can survive and overcome in Hollywood with perserverance and prayer. Hollywood is a decadant prision for practicing Christians and working there is as tough as making bricks without straw. Just ask Charlton Heston, I have.

Rather than support just any movie that comes into the multiplex that depicts our religion and Christian living, go and see only the best movies that are made by Christians. This way the quest for excellence will be rewarded because the film and the film making process is yet another form of giving praise for the talents given the director, actors, actresses and creative team.
