Noah

[TheProcrastinator]

I really like that they included a "spin" on the story of Noah that can potentially take it to a lots of interesting places.

Viewing this as some kind of religious blasphemy is simply ridiculous.

My only concern is the director, as Aronofsky has a way of making beautiful films that sometimes only pretend to be deep and thoughtfull, while in truth they dress thr blandness of their pseudo-philosophical bull**** in pretty pictures. So its a coin toss with this guy for me. Could be great, could also be a pretentious pseudo-artistic crap.

John 3:16 is the only truth any Christian needs to follow. No way anyone can misinterpret that.

very true...but ONLY the Elect believe

Well, art is subjective. I love Gravity, but a poster on here had an almost religious experience with the film, and it shook him to the core. I don't see how that's possible...but hey.

It may have something to do with space. Beautiful images showing endless depth of the cosmos, can have that effect on some

i.e. Teemu wants to see lots of gay sex and lots and lots of people chon-choning animals.

Classic Nam

Either enjoy the fictional movie, or don't.

Yep. I imagine that atheists in general will avoid it because at first glance it looks like a "Bible movie" and Christians will avoid it because its so wildly divergent from the actual story. I'm guessing it'll be another "Robin Hood" for Crowe and will come and go with no cultural impact to speak of.

I rather liked Crowe's Robin Hood ... hoping for an eventual sequel.

I read that they made Prince John's snake friend a good guy so I passed.

Summed it up perfectly for me.

It's a miracle that this thread is still open . As a few others have pointed out, whatever happens in this movie, will only scratch the surface of what was actually described in scriptures. The Bible describes some very awful things that lead to the flood - things that I personally would not want to see.

I can see this is going to be my go to thread for a laugh.

I guess this explains the variations in the source material

Bibles labeled as fiction at CostCo

if you don't want to read the article, this stoner can describe it to you.
