Russell Crowe Playing Noah |
time of day on an alleged Christian theme, it appears director Darren Aronofsky couldn't resist totally ignoring the actual Biblical story, and instead has turned it into what Al Gore would consider a dream film: one that focuses on environmentalism and overpopulation.
One reviewer said, the film depicts Noah "as a 'crazy, irrational, religious nut who is fixated on modern-day problems like overpopulation and environmental degradation.'"
The idea that God destroyed the earth for environmental reasons, or that overpopulation was an issue, is an outright lie and corruption of the story.
But since Aronofsky said his goal from the beginning was to "make a Noah for everyone," it was already doomed to failure in regard to Christian audiences.
Unfortunately, Hillsong head of film and television, Ben Field, doesn't mind the unbiblical content and focus of the story. "If you're expecting it to be word for word from the Bible, you're in for a shock. There can be an opportunity for Christians to take offense. [But] we were pretty excited that a studio like Paramount would invest in a Bible-themed movie."
No, Mr. Field, we're not a bunch of beggars hoping for Hollywood to develop a movie that uses the Biblical story to promote its liberal agenda.
Aronofsky said this about the film: "For people who are very literal-minded, it would be great to communicate that the themes of the film are very much in line with the themes of the Bible -- ideas about hope, second chances and family. If they allow that, they're going to have an incredible experience with the movie. If they don't allow it, it's theirs to lose."
It's ours to lose then Aronofsky, as I have no desire and won't go and see this piece of liberal garbage masquerading as being based upon the Bible.
What Hollywood needs to learn is if it's going to make films based upon the Bible, it needs to be accurate or don't bother. Most Christians don't mind filling in the blanks as far as a story needing to be filled in, but to change the story outright and make into another liberal narrative, is an outrage that hopefully will result in people staying home.
