Watching The Bible pt 6

2013-04-15T14:51:23Z

One thing that really bugs me is that I can't even grab good footage off this thing, it was so poorly shot and had such uneven production values and people not nearly pretty enough.

Attempting to Watch The Bible pt 5

2013-04-12T15:42:32Z

Look, it's impossible to attempt to personify the Devil without either sinking into parody (horns, red skin, pitchfork,etc) or implying that you think the type of person you're using to personify the Devil really is evil. They should have done what Buffy did. In the Buffyverse, the original personification of all evil , The First, has no physical form. It copies the image of whatever deceased person its victim most wants to see. This allowed the show to avoid unfortunate implications by constantly changing up the gender, age, race, and sexual orientation of The First. Supernatural has also set their version of Lucifer up with the same ability ( he has to actually possess a living human being though) , the form he currently appears in was meant to be temporary. They kept it because they wanted to keep using Mark Pelligrino, but they made a point of telling us that he could look like anyone he wants.

The fight scenes. OhMG, so many of them are so bad. If the casting director should be fired (see below) the fight choreographer should be banned for life from working in Hollywood.

The History Channel's Bible Fail.

2013-03-16T01:57:35Z

The History Channel has been trying to rebrand itself as a home for working class but intellectually curious (and probably white) male viewers. Everything they do must be fitted to this audience. Simplistic narratives that focus a lot on weapons, military tactics and explosions, which are cool but it means the network tends to ignore soft and subtle things, and women's stories, and men who don't come across as tough enough. If the History Channel was a cooking channel, they'd be Emeril and Guy Fieri 24/7.

Boycott Happy Christianists Upset at Being Boycotted pt3

2012-09-23T16:11:39Z

When conservative Christians talk about the End Times, and how refusal to accept the Mark of the Beast will make it hard to buy things like food…I wonder if, if Revelation was really a prediction of the future and not a coded story about the persecution of early Christianity built on references to the Babylonian and Persian conquest of the Jews, that maybe it’s the conservative Christians who end up doing it to themselves. If you committed fully to boycotting every single thing I just listed, buying things becomes much more difficult. The increasingly narrow world they find themselves living in should show them that you can’t live constantly believing the rest of the world is at war with you.

One big complaint they had was that it wasn't fair for people to boycott a private business for the private beliefs of its owner. Except, conservative Christians are sort of known for doing that to everyone else.
