Ever since Mark Burnett shoved THE BIBLE onto unwilling distributors (who then made a bundle) Hollywood has realized that God is hot, and Bible stories can make them gazillions (duh.) See AD coming up on NBC. (Or not.) Its probably gonna suck, like Burnetts BIBLE did -- but it was good enough to make the genius Burnett extraordinary amounts of money -- and he did it for moral reasons -- he believes God is real, and he wants to celebrate that. Very odd behaviour from someone in Hollywood, yes? So dig this -- the appetite of America for stories about God is insanely underserved, and its mostly because Hollywood is made up of folks who are, and always have been, too hip for the room -- thats why they came out here. But such demi-god producers as the original big studio heads KNEW this, and made a slew of Bible pictures serving this market, and now Hollywood is discovering it again -- and good for them! (It aint just Mel Gibson out there serving up his super-brilliant, but alas, loony and often bloodily hateful brand.) So get ready for a slew of Bible stories! And a good thing, too...
