Random Stranger posted:There has been a lot of SF stories about that topic but none of them handled it as stupidly as that trailer. I felt like it was a very preachy film, but then again I also haven't watched something like "Left Behind" so my barometer of preachy Christian silliness is maybe a little under used. Also, Bibleman is so loving hysterical. It's a little sad when you hear Willie Aames talk about how he became a born again Christian, but then you watch Bibleman and I don't feel so bad.

Slate Action posted:This was mentioned a couple pages back but I just watched Cleanflix and That movie is wonderful in it's heaping helping of IRONY. Anyone seen "Hell House"? Fairly entertaining to watch a church group preparing for their Halloween event. Easily my favorite part is the argument between two of them when working on the script for the house because they can't figure out if they should refer to Magic cards (the game Magic)

Robotnik Nudes posted:I've seen Jesus Christ Superstar do the resurrection on stage before, at the end, when they performed Superstar. It's a pretty good compromise because for Christians you can have your resurrection, but for everyone else you get Judas basically heckling the resurrected Jesus, but he's ok cause he's resurrected. It changes the tone a lot, but it actually works really well. I've seen Superstar a couple of times performed live, because I love that show, and I can't remember the resurrection being involved. Granted it's been a few years, but yeah, I seem to remember it ending with the crucifixion, and then I think one version had some of the apostles recite lines from the bible about the resurrection (they opened the show the same way but more of a setting up the story way) and the other production just sorta lowered the lights and that was it. If I remember correctly, and my memory on the history of the show is a bit hazy, but it was released as a concept album because Weber was convinced that there was no way he could get away with actually getting the show on stage, what with the suggestions of romance from Mary Magdalene, Jesus being portrayed as *Gasp* a human being, etc. Of course it was eventually staged and became a hit. The 1973 film version is easily my favorite version, but they did a really interesting version of it in 2012 as an arena tour where it's framed as being sort of modern with Jesus and the apostles being Occupiers. It's a hell of a lot better than the one from 2000 that's for sure. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2596918/?ref_=nv_sr_2
