absolution

I have a proposal. Everyone watch Black Death and then we can discuss Christianity via that film. It's a more ambiguous and open film. I'm still not sure if it is pro- or anti-Christian. All I know is that I like it. I just watched it again today on NWI. I can definitely see it making my Top Ten for 2011. Not that the discussion of The Passion of the Christ is not interesting, it's just that it's kind of predictable, right?

Brandon, I have not found the occasion on this blog to discuss where I stand on the religion issue. Though religion is something that interests me and I have some strong opinions and beliefs, I think I'll refrain from openly saying anything unless it comes out in discussion of a film. Piecing together everyone's worldview based on their writings about movies is one of the most interesting things about Film Club for me.

Jason, I enjoyed No Impact Man. There was not necessarily anything new or clever but it was a fun film and one that I think more people should probably see. I have not read The Walking Dead comics because I've never really liked the whole zombie thing. However, I have a feeling the comics are probably killer now that I've seen the show. It's interesting how the show is structured. I can almost see it moving frame by frame like a comic would.

Alright, I've been enjoying the flurry of posts lately. The last few weeks I have been trying to manage my computer time better. So, hopefully, I'll be giving Film Club more time than it got in the past few months.

And, seriously, go watch Black Death.
