It is a shame that good directors always do moral crap. What could happen if a really good director did a Christian world-view movie. That was one thing that the Passion did so well. It answered the question, what if someone decent did a movie on the life of Jesus? I don’t mean that I wish someone would put out a whole bunch of well-made goofy Christian movies, just that someone would make a bunch of high quality, action oriented movies that had a Christian world view, that were decent and not liberal garbage that denigrates all that I hold dear.
It is amazing to see what the world considers “faith-based” movies. When the Passion came out, Hollywood was all ready to do Christian stuff for those weird Christians. The next one out was Nativity, one of the most boring and whiny movies I ever saw. Any time Hollywood shows Christians they are whiny and gripy and domineering. And usually the bad guys. It has been that way for a long time. This dawned on me when I watched How the West Was Won, one of my favorite movies again not long ago. It suddenly dawned on me that the bad guys, a man played by Walter Brennan, and his kids were quoting Bible verses. The same kind of person was in Judge Dredd, another movie I liked, but the bad guys were shouting Hallelujah and such a lot.
It would be something if someone who was really good at his job were to direct movies which were quality and decent.
Then we could get lawn chairs and watch while the pigs flew in formation overhead.
UPDATE: Improbably ending, but it was a good movie.

You are welcome to say anything you want as long as it is nice. If I don't like it, or it is ugly, I will take it off, place it into the garbage disposal, grind it up, and allow it to be flushed into the Gulf of Mexico where it will be eaten by a fish and then excreted where it will lie on the bottom of the ocean until it is covered up by other comments.
