Glenn Beck Saw ‘Noah’ Over the Weekend, and He’s Calling It the ‘Babylonian Chainsaw Massacre’
The Blaze ^ | 3/24/2014 | Erica Ritz

Glenn Beck was invited to see “Noah” by an executive vice president of Paramount Pictures over the weekend, who requested that the multimedia personality see the movie before taking a position on it with his audience.

“I felt like kind of a dirtball, basing my review on something that I hadn’t seen, on someone else’s review,” Beck said on radio Monday. “That’s what people do to me. They don’t listen or watch, then they review. It was wrong of me to do.”

Unfortunately — though Beck said everyone at Paramount was extremely gracious — he has only more words of warning for his audience after sitting through the entire epic.

“The review made it sound like this was a godless climate change movie,” Beck said. “I believe that it is not a godless climate change movie. It’s more take ‘Sinbad the Sailor’ meets ‘The Shining’ and ‘Friday the 13th,’ with a sprinkle of ‘Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome.’”

Beck said strongly: “If you are looking for a biblical movie, this is definitely not it … It’s not the story of Noah that I was hoping for. If you are going for that, you will be horribly disappointed.”

Among the specific scenes Beck took issue with, he referenced the “giant rock people” that sprung up to help Noah with his tasks.

Impy, Liz Hurley attended... the Marc Cain show during Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Autumn/Winter 2014/15 at Brandenburg Gate on January 16, 2014 in Berlin, Germany.

And for a 48 year old hag... she looks pretty good... don't ya think?

Are these rock people conservatives or liberals?

Dunno about their politics but I'm purty sure they weren't good swimmers.

OMG!!! You must be a Yankee RINO!

I’m teasing; just making a joke ‘cause there’s a few Rebs on this site that instinctively say that.

Looking forward to both the NHL playoffs and the start of MLB. :)

Rock People?

Are they related to the creepy Clay People we saw as kids in the Buck Rogers serials on Saturday matinees?

Oh, NOah!

I'm going to have scary dreams tonight.

Miguel Cabrera $300 million for 10 years...wow. Just wow.

I wonder if he can win the Triple Crown this year.

He would have won it last year if not for the nagging injury.

That's a big one. He could buy a Caribbean island with that.

100% agree. I also said then and still believe DET would have won it all with a healthy Cabrera.

Do you miss Prince Fielder?

“He could buy a Caribbean island with that.”

Or maybe 2 small ones. :)

I haven’t really thought about Fielder.

I don’t know, I’m not feeling it for the Hawks this year (both times we won it I felt it, all year, FWIW). Something has seemed off since the Olympic break. Of course they have been dealing with injuries.

The Bruins are on fire, I’d peg them as the favorite to go all the way.

As for Cabrera, god damn! Odds are in 5 years they’ll be regretting it, has any team ever not regretted a mega-deal like this?

Anyway you can buy an island for a lot less than 300 mil

The bigger/nicer ones of course are much more expensive, they won’t even list the price for some of them. The most expensive they list is 160 mil for a whale shaped island east of Phucket, Thailand.
