Director Darren Aronofsky to Jennifer Connelly while
filming “Requiem For A Dream”:
“Jenny I’ve got a great idea, I really think you’re gonna get good
reviews from 'Requiem, how about playing Noah’s wife one day in the
popular flood story?”
Jennifer: “Sounds great Darren, but when are we going to be done with
this Double-Dildo scene because it’s been hours and my hemorrhoids are
acting up…who do you think you are with all these takes anyway, KUBRICK?”
I’m cool with it. I have wondered how the deeply devout will react or view this type of movie. That is my question. Does this image of a warrior Noah make them uneasy? Will they show the making of wine scene after the flood?
I will check it out.
Sir Tony looks exactly like the Dungeon Master…
Great to see the good news on the silverscreen.
Maybe a few more otherwise damned souls will escape the fiery pits.
Let’s pray they’ll show other important stories, like:
Judges 19:22
Genesis 19:31
2 Kings 2:23
And let’s not forget the more recent pearls of wisdom :
Luke 14:26
1 Timothy 2
Luke 19:27
Heaven forbid Hollywood make a movie about a bible story…
I would rather they make:
Rush hour 7
Lethal Weapon 11.5
Die Hard 9
Rambo Second Blood Part 3
or maybe we could get a remake/reboot, those are so rare.

Sadly, I’ve heard from people involved that this is Water World, the Prequel:
plodding, stupid, preachy, replete with in-your-face environmentalism-posing-as-religion, Ayn Rand-worthy monologues (but of preachy environmentalism instead of capitalism), and a complete rejection of the religious and moral elements of the actual Torah story.
In short, it’s secular people trying to make a buck from religious people but they can’t help themselves and still push a secular viewpoint.
I think the only thing it is missing is a pair of black-jive-talking-robots as comedy relief, although Jar-Jar Binks like characters exist.

Said robotic duo will feature in a deleted scene getting thrown off The Ark for being annoying c***ts.

Ridley Scott is filming Exodus with Christian Bale as Moses and Aaron Paul as Joshua: “When Joshua heard the noise of the people shouting, he spake unto Moses,‘There is the sound of war in the camp…bitch’”.
A bold claim.

There are some good stories in there.
Sex, violence, you name it.

Would not suprise me at all.
Alright it’s sex, violence, violent sex, violent foreplay- then more violent sex and sexy violence on top of more violent violence.
AND STILL all bible movies suck - because the target audience suck.
The gorno by Mel Gibson was okayish though - but where was the sex?

Lol, angry much?
Does Emma Watson get nekkid?

So you are saying that all people of religion suck?
You have clearly let the butthurt flow freely.

She’s in it?
Maybe her and Jennifer Connelly can have a requiem moment (please God let this happen, please…)
You tell me how the botch the job - the ingredients are there.
Yet somehow we get snoozefest (eg Book of Eli) after snoozefest (Left Behind:the movie) after snoozefest (fairly recent Barrabas series).
I don’t mind idiotic ideology as long as they grease the fiction with lots of blood, slick suspense and sexual sleeze.
But they don’t.
My assumption is that religious people want their stories so simple and two-dimensional a five old could appreciate them.
Anything remotely interesting (the last temptation of Christ) or funny (Life of Brian) gets booed.
You have a better theory, please tell me.
BTW: if you want a great, testosterone-filled Jesus flic, watch Valhalla Rising, honest recommendation.

90% of all movies and anything that was ever written is trash or utterly meaningless.
Deal with it.

The Left Behind movie adaptation wasn’t awesome, no way.
The Book of Eli, lol…
