i was wondering why so many people take pride and joy bashing on movies?

Maybe you should consider that (a) this movie both "takes pride and joy" and hopes to turn a huge profit off of slandering the most deeply-held beliefs of 1.3 billion Christians and (b) falsely characterizes an orthodox organization of lay Catholics as a group of sado-masochistic, murderous nutcases.

Good afternoon,
So basically you are returning the slap on the cheek, as your post suggest? Isn't that against your belief? And yes at some point in history, the church was an entity with those "qualities" you pointed in your post...Things change and now it is one of the most respected religion, but one must not forget history...Anyways, other posters answered with great arguments already.

Best regards.
