Thanks for the proper formatting AB ;) {nm} Colt 1911 May 16, 13:06

Focus Features {nm} Oleg Max May 16, 13:06

I don't think either matters, provided that the movie has a Christian message that appeals to Christian (and general) audiences. RogerMore May 16, 14:13

Yep, it's super-easy to keep secrets these days, especially from networked groups. :-/ What makes it not matter much is Focus Features. {nm} KalElFan May 16, 14:25

It's not about keeping a secret, it's about if a group gets excited enough to make a big deal out of it, and whether it takes. RogerMore May 16, 18:43

The context was this... KalElFan May 16, 23:59

I think you should look from outside your personal context. RogerMore May 17, 07:14

"Fictional story" (as DL says) and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anne_Rice#Renunciation_of_Christianity (as DL omits) will limit upside. {nm} KalElFan May 16, 13:50

Darren Aronofsky is an atheist and Noah got standing ovations from Christian audiences. {nm} tatoufan May 16, 14:26

LOL WHAT {nm} adrenalin112 May 16, 14:32

Aronofsky is an atheist, Noah made 100M and I don't there is a limited upside (as suggested above) based on A. Rices beliefs. {nm} tatoufan May 16, 14:56

im moreso questioning the standing ovation part. {nm} adrenalin112 May 16, 16:31

That was Noah, and DA was more faithful to the story than Rice's fictional child Christ "... Out of Egypt.". DA also grew up religious... KalElFan May 16, 14:58

Besides the articles that were posted here around the opening"...one packed AMC theater in Santa Monica gave the film a standing ovation..." tatoufan May 16, 15:46

Well, okay. :-) Santa Monica is not exactly the Bible Belt though, and Hollywood industry folk could've been standing and applauding. {nm} KalElFan May 16, 17:45

Aronofsky is Jewish, not Atheist. Modern Christian definitions of "faith* are wholly unrelated to any Jewish tradition. {nm} tawdryhepburn May 18, 13:48
