The Imaginarium of Dr. ParnassusThe Imaginarium of Dr. Parnassus

More Than the Moment
Elisabeth Leitch

In not actually portraying eternity, it speaks to the reality that the ever after is not only so great that the slightest glimpse of it can't help but transform our present, it is so grand that it is beyond the realms our wildest imagination.

Hollywood Jesus in the News, Under Fire

A few years ago, Dick Staub published a book entitled Too Pagan, Too Christian in which he documented the difficulties of ministering through pop culture.

Hollywood Jesus, of course, has been embroiled in that controversy from its inception.  Its very name, Hollywood Jesus, combines semantic units that can cause the very skin of opposing parties to crawl.

Over the weekend, this caught-in-the-middle effect became quite pronounced (as it does every few years) as Hollywood Jesus was simultaneously criticized by the Wall Street Journal for being too conservative and by Big Hollywood for being too liberal.

Makes for interesting reading! Click through to read all four primary articles regarding this week's controversies.

Darrel Manson


"What Andrea does really well and what I got from Red Road is she's non-judgmental of the characters she portrays. They just do things and that's life. There's no good person in it, no bad person. There's elements of everything in everyone."

Hardcore Assimilation
Jacob Sahms

This is a solid, entertaining, thought-provoking movie... over and over again! And one shouldn't assume that the politics take away from the special effects. The transformation of Van Der Merwe is scary in its absoluteness.
