A LEGION Cause of Laughter in Theatres?!?

Just saw this movie... Jesus Christ what a sh*thole movie, bad acting, bad special effects, bad action scenes, and a stupid plot. It's a shame January Releases tend to be forgotten by award season, cause this one should be a top contender in multiple categories. 

Originally posted by Kaz This is all a plot to scare the hell out of people so that someone can make a sequel to 2012 (I like to call it "2013: Electric Boogaloo") to scare the Jesus into folks by saying "blue aliens, vampires, pissed as sh*t aliens and Jack Black are coming to end your very existence come 12/22/12! REPENT! REPENT!"

Two outstanding films, although I really wish someone would construct a contract with Kevin Smith that doesn't pay him by the number of times one of his characters drops an "f" bomb

Originally posted by sampsoninc916 Seems that studios usually dump their crap on cinemas in January and February. By the way, I'm not going to see this movie because of the sole fact that in it a modern woman is pregnant with the Messiah, which is outright blasphemy (and ridiculous!) in my terms. One Messiah was enough, and I'm not afraid to confess my faith in him. It was God's will that He died on that cross, and placed all the sins of the world, including future sins, on Himself so that we would be forgiven.   But a movie featuring a woman with child carrying the Messiah? COME ON!!! Don't torture my religion of Christianity.

I understand what you're saying, but the Bible says Jesus will be coming back, and there will be a second coming. I enjoy movies on a cinematic level - if this were a quality movie, I would want to see it. There are lots of things that happen in movies that I don't agree with, or don't believe in (such as murder), but I don't let this affect how much I enjoy the movie, or what I believe in. If I barricade myself from what happens in the real world, without seeing it for what it is, then I remain ignorant and farther from God. 

Honestly, I didn't get anything about her carrying "The Messiah" all I got was that the plot was carrying a Mess-a crap. I suppose part of the problem might have been the idiots in the theater who were apparently trying to converse with the characters on screen, and had to loudly repeat any line they found even remotely humorous....

Let's see, this is the second movie within a two week time frame to have religious figures or themes, "The Book of Eli" being the other. It seems H-Wood is trying to cash in on the biggest of franchises with a very devoted, built-in fan base: organized religion.
