Imagine you held something in extremely high regard. In fact, it was pretty much a "sacred" thing to you. Then, some asshole made a movie about the thing you held sacred. The movie portrayed your sacred thing in a really shitty light. I mean, like, really shitty light. How would you feel about that movie? Now you know how millions of bible believing people feel about Noah, the movie you thought was "pretty good." |

If you didn't see "the Fountain" yet, it's a very nice spritual movie, starring Rachel Weisz and Hugh Jackman, Also a vert good movie by Darren Aranovsky is "Requim for a Dream" starring also Jennifer Connely and a very good Jared Leto (also frontman 30 Seconds to Mars ) |

You were not there! You are very passionate about your opinions...and I guess you take the bible very literal... Is that they way it's supposed to be? Everything is written out just so? There is never any room for something different that could have happened? I am not talking about what happened in the movie either. It's just that you guys did not experience the great flood. You were never in the ark... |

You liked it??!! Spirituality and all that aside, I thought it was HORRIBLE! Interesting, different strokes for different folks. As you said, "you're entitled to your opinion." ;-) |

Quoting: K.Kool It sounds to me like a new-age white-wash on a Biblical event. I'll probably wait till its out on dvd though. I was gonna wait too...but after my son said I want to see that movie with you mom...well I was like damn really? okay... So we went. lol but it was pefect timing for me too...I walked away feeling good about it and the money spent. I walked away with no worries for some reason. I am throwing all of the nasty shit from the past few days away...gone into the trash :) |

The moment you challenge the OP on the accuracies of this movie as compared to the real screenplay (THE BIBLE) they cry foul and don't want to address it. Well, the movie was planted AT THIS TIME for a very specific reason, and I will just leave it at that. Those who have a spiritual eye need to go back and really read over this thread and pay attention. It almost time for some of you to pick a side because "they" are coming out the woodwork now.....Their father is the one who lies and they want the rest of us to believe in that lie.

First thing was mom...I don't want to eat meat anymore...then a discussion followed about that. I then asked him about Noah's decison with the babies...Then he said it's love mom...believe in yourself and listen to your heart. That's what Noah did... I am glad we went. |

Hatedknight User ID: 46968440 United States 04/12/2014 08:27 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I am sure the movie is well acted and great effects and named anything other than "noah" I think it would have been fine. You can't take a story from the bible and use the bible names of the people in the story and change everything about the story and think people will be "OK" with it. I think they made this movie and used "Noah" just to stir things up in hopes the movie will get press and do good. That's why I won't see it. Ever! Not for no other reason. They could have taken one the millions of stories that predates the bible about other civilizations with the flood story and being fine. No they used Noah for the reason of getting press not to tell the story Glad you and your son spent time together that is more important than a dumb movie Take care! |
