My favorite part is layering photos of abortion with gay pride parade. Also the "feminist" watering her garden while whining abut feminism

I like how they list BOX OFFICE SMASH-HIT Unstoppable, to make you think he directed the 2010 film with Denzel Washington and Chris Pine. When actually, he directed some lovely documentary with Kirk Cameron. He also directed Saving Christmas, the Kirk Cameron hit!

There's a pretty good idea for a movie in the Supreme Court declaring violence is speech and all laws against assault and murder are unconstitutional.

I'm not sure if it's terrible, but my local theater is playing some movie called Woodlawn with this synopsis:quote:After a government-mandate, Tony Nathan, a gifted high school football player, and other African-American students desegregate Woodlawn High School in Birmingham, Alabama in 1973. As cross burnings and riots erupt in the city, Tandy Gerelds, the Woodlawn Colonels football coach, struggles to ease racial tensions between his players. It's only when Gerelds allows Hank, an outsider, to speak to his team that real change begins. Hank, who has been radically affected by the message of hope and love he experienced at a Christian revival meeting, tells the players a "better way" is possible through following Jesus. More than 40 players, nearly the entire team, black and white, give their lives over to Jesus Christ and the spiritual change has a profound effect on the coach, the school and the community. Boy howdy I'm sure all those folks in 1973 Alabama have never been exposed to evangelical Christianity.

So Remember the Titans but the players get along because of religion, instead of just, you know, not being assholes?

I wondered what the Capalert site had to say on Remember the Titans and I was surprised under "Offenses to God" they didn't go into taking points off for referring to the Greco-Roman mythology.

Probably they never learned about the mythological Titans in (home)school and were never curious as to where the word "titan" came from. I was curious how badly CapAlert would slam The Last Temptation of Christ, only to find that it has never been reviewed! How will good Christians know to avoid a movie where Jesus lusts after Mary Magdalene?

CAP has some weird blind spots. He loves Star Trek and Mary Poppins and would get furious with people who called them at all blasphemous. This was back when he responded to e-mail. He also hated Star Trek the Next Generation because Riker was promiscuous.

This was back when he responded to e-mail. Back when I was like 11 I emailed CAP about his Sin City review, because his abhorrence of Hartigan killing himself made no sense to me. I actually got a reasonably thoughtful reply; I kind of wish I still had that email so I could dig it up, but the general thrust of it was that in CAP's view of Christian theology, suicide is never acceptable regardless of the reasons- even if you're dying to save another, it's still a mortal sin. He was also kind of appalled that I'd seen the movie; I don't remember if I mentioned that I was a kid or if he could just tell (probably the latter). In hindsight, I probably should have pointed out that that's basically what Christ did, but I probably wouldn't have gotten quite as nice of a reply.

Or worse, you could have gotten an enthusiastic layman's attempt to reconcile God's and therefore Jesus' foreknowledge of his fate and the idea of free will.

His review of the 1999 movie "The Straight Story" has sort of a strange paragraph in it considering the place drugs/alcohol held/hold as part of 'sins'. Keep in mind, this IS 1999 when smoking was seemingly treated a lot differently in the eyes of the public compared to just a few years later to where movies sort of dropped smoking in large part almost overnight, people were starting to form groups to push for smoking in films to warrant mandatory R ratings, price of smokes got really expensive, etc. (Bolding mine) "Another element of possible entertainment ignominy might be noted in the reason for part of Alvin's ill health -- smoking -- for which the only "visible" consequences were a chewing out by a doctor. I have not incorporated smoking into the CAP analysis model. If I do, the integrity of the CAP analysis model would not be compromised but scores will generally be even lower than now. And likewise the scores of some of the more than 260 movies already analyzed should be lower. But then, if smoking in entertainment is determined to be a significant influence, the scores *should* be lower. What do YOU want me to do about smoking in the movies? Bottom line: is it a sin to smoke?" They include drugs/alcohol content as things to mark against a film in the ratings, but somehow smoking isn't on that level?

AGirlWonder posted:I'm not sure that I mentioned it before, but my church's youth group does a monthly movie night. Last Friday, we watched John Q. I always love when we watch films that aren't explicitly Christian, and not just because they're usually better-made. It's not exactly a great movie, and it's surprisingly political in a way unexpected of an evangelical youth group, but the kids got a lot out of it. Next time we'll probably watch Dead Poet's Society, which I regrettably haven't seen. The kids are set on watching Star Wars soon, so we'll also be doing that. Do you all have any suggestions for "secular" movies with Christian themes, or even themes that would lead to good conversation about spirituality? For example, we watched Jurassic Park a few months ago and it was a huge hit. We do watch Christian movies, but good ones are harder to come by and we all know it. The whole self sacrifice and death and rebirth bits are obvious as anything, but you can really get a lot out of the non-violence and de-escalation themes too. http://www.wired.com/2009/08/a-decade-later-the-iron-giants-weaponized-soul-still-stirs/ As mentioned before, Iron Man is a fantastic secular conversion story, but for all the appeal of a weapons manufacturer who dedicates himself to peace after nearly dying to his own weapons, it ultimately leaves unquestioned the same base assumptions about the ability of violence and power fantasies to bring peace that virtually all superhero films, and action films in general, do. The Iron Giant presents a different point of view. Perhaps that is why the Iron Giant was a colossal failure at the box office, and Iron Man one of the biggest hits of the past decade.
