Thoughts on the new movie, “Fireproof”-Acting was good – pretty convincing-Plot and storyline, well-written-Clear presentation of the Gospel-Tackled real issues from a Biblical perspective: sexual sin via the internet, marital infidelity, how to relate with/to imperfect spouses, friends, parents, etc.- *Go see it.*Why can’t sweet, inoffensive, movies like this come out more often? Clean, family-friendly films and tv shows make the biggest bucks, after all! But Hollywood is controlled by unrepentant sinners, who prefer to spend big money on dirty, violent, offensive (and really, really stupid) films and shows.Is there any hope? Yes: Jesus Christ. Let's pray for a revival in Hollywood. The Spirit can do an amazing work there – anywhere!Hollywood has a dangerously strong influence on Christians in the US. You and me: our generation is the one that Hollywood targets. Let’s make a moral stand against these Hollywood hallmarks: gratuitous violence, mocking marriage, bold-faced profanity, infidelity and fornication, etc.Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things. Philippians 4:8
If you haven't had a chance to see the movie yet then there is still an opportunity to go with a group. O-San is trying to organize a group to go sometime in the next couple weeks. If you're not sure how to get in touch with O-San then you can email me at:

Steve,
I agree that this film was a must see. To answer your question "is there any hope?" I refer you to Vision forum and the SACFF (San Antonio Christian Film Festival) they also hold a Film academy before the festival.

The yellow text (i.e. the question "Is there any hope?") is from a review written by Kristine. However - I did check out the website and found some great things about several topics I was interested in (Palin, Voting, etc)
