Yeah, he was just sweeping the hallway just outside of my door. He bummed a cigarette from me.
All hail my new signature!

Admit it. You're secretly green with envy.

He comes by occasionally. His brother Juan lives kitty corner from me.

I'll probably watch it when it's available to stream for free on a site that I use. Same with God's Not Dead. I'll probably watch it on a day that I'm looking for a good laugh.

God's not dead is looking (according to the clips) to be the most retarded religious movie ever . Kevin sorbo is playing a atheist professor . Apparently he is mad with god. This film is suggesting atheists are people that are mad with the judeochristian god. Being mad at any god is like being mad at Santa or the easter bunny. This could be a very funny movie. Maybe I will watched it later.

Fwiw, both movies got the same rating on Rotten tomatoes- 22% The critics aren't lovin' Jesus, apparently. Must be atheists. Damn them!
Kevin Sorbo is the only actor I know that can take an epic movie plot and budget like King Kull and turn it into the equivalent of a 2 hour TV B movie. 

Review of God's Not Dead:

"God may not be dead, but I'd be willing to wager this movie at least gave him a faint wave of nausea."

Review of Son of God:

"...as good as any film edited together from segments of a History Channel miniseries can be expected to be, which is to say it's utterly terrible."

So there. Not wasting my time, personally.

I'll wait for Netflix. I bet there will be plenty of meme-shots from that. :plot:

I don't think you'll have long to wait.

I already knew they were going to be horrible. Sometimes horrible movies are hilarious to watch and entertaining for all the wrong reasons.

I saw a coming attraction at the theater.  The character development may be pretty cheesy .  The professor seemed like he may be such an asshole, that even I would hate him.  I got the impression he was a proselytizer more consumed by an irrational hatred of God than he was with his teaching.  It struck me as a projection of a Christian irrationality and need for control onto the necessary antagonist, who would surely be brought to his knees by the awesome power of God. <make gagging sounds>

I read the reviews for both movies. the word "cheesy" was used a lot.

Ordinary christians will love this movie anyway. Most christians are really retarded. Maybe I will watch this crappy movie later for a few laughs.

I won't bother with either one. Kevin Sorbo doesn't rate 3 minutes of my time. The only reason "Son of God" got made is that Mark Barnett is boning Roma Downey. He wants to keep doing that. I have to admit she is very boneable.

I liked him better when he was doing Hercules In Space.   Except for the last season.
