Most
the time, it is possible for me to be a patient, mature adult. I am OK with Hollywood adapting any book they
need to for it to be made into a movie. I understand that is part of the
moviemaking process.
What
really infuriates me is when Hollywood adapts a Bible story into a movie, and
adds all sort of information that is not in the Bible. Why does Hollywood have
to take potshots at God’s Word? Make the entire movie complete biblical truth
with no creative fillers. In a religious movie, some of the movie viewers will
assume that what they are viewing is in the Bible. They will never search the
scriptures to discover the real truth.
This
is not to say that all religious movies I’ve seen have been bad. Some critics
have hated the religious movies I’ve enjoyed the most. Occasionally, Hollywood
has got it right with the religious movie they’ve filmed.
There
are things you can do to voice your opinion about a movie. Either email the
website for the movie with your comment. You can also add an electronic
appraisal of a movie on the appropriate website. There was one movie that I
walked out of because it offended me so badly. I asked the theater for my money
back, and got it. You have more influence over Hollywood than what you might
think.
