Terrible by design. Hollywood can’t have anyone admiring the Bible. It might get someone interested.
Falls into the false prophet category, of sorts.
“based on a true story, the heartwarming trip of a six‐year old boy through the magical realms imagined by Dante Alighieri.”
Might be interesting. Kind of a take-off on Larry Niven and Jerry Pournelle's novel Inferno.
And of course Hollywood will accurate and fair.
Reminds me of how good those old Cecil B DeMille movies really were!
They are all horrible. They look Mad Max Thunderdome.
In all fairness “Risen” was a darned good movie.
I can’t wait for the block buster “Mohammed and the Child Bride”...
Should be a hoot...!
O’ Wait...
“Risen” was a good movie because of the productive values...
The second half of the movie was purely Hollywood fantasy...
The second half of the movie was purely Hollywood fantasy...
I agree. I thought the first half was very, very good, the second half kidda schmaltzy. Who was the Fiennes character interviewing toward the midpoint? Peter? He seemed like a giggling school girl rather than a messenger from God.
This has to be satire, right? Reads like it’s a depiction of the corporate stooges on The Simpsons.
No, it was not Peter. Yes, it was a disciple whose mind had been blown by what he had seen. Giddy with joy. Now, as to the reception of the tribune by the disciples? No way would a first century Jew have received a gentile, a Roman especially as quickly as that. Despite all that had happened, it would have been too much, too soon. But, of course, this is a parable. The tribune is the man in the audience.
Universal Studios’ movie Balaam, which includes a talking donkey ....Universal knows talking donkeys work.
Babylon Bee is a humor/satire site.
If The Hobbit can be bastardized to such an insane extent don’t expect anything else to be spared. It’s a shame. Directors think we are too stupid to pay attention without love interests and more drama than the original story.
I can hardly wait for the story of Sodom to be filmed. You know the one where wild, wacky, peaceful citizens of Sodom are oppressed by that hateful, bigoted Lot and his family.
Full of loving homosexuals, just wanting to use their restroom of choice.
I was scanning thru the on demand movies the other day and I couldn’t stop laughing at all the ridiculous plots
