The controversial summer blockbuster made from the best-selling book?

The film hasn't opened yet. It is EXPECTED to be a big blockbuster but then so was Ishtar.

The Swift Boat Veterans had a "controversial best-seller" too. I wouldn't expect a movie based on it to outsell Star Wars.

So anyone involved in this film is an atheist?

Ian is. The author is certainly opposed to Christianity.

I don't claim that everyone involved in this film is atheist. Would you claim that everyone involved in the production/promotion of The Passion was a Christian, there is no doubt that film had an agenda too.

I do question those who find it "worthy" ro promote this film over others (especially in light of the weak reviews).

I've always thought Ron Howard's movies were overrated. BAckDraft and Apollo 13 are the only ones I can name, even though I've not seen them in their entirety. If they were good, I would have been able to sit through them by now.
