4: The special effects. From the raising of Seti’s treasure city to the parting of the Red Sea, the pre-CGI marvels are a testament to imagination and skill, with zero computer assistance.

YES!!!! Even things from that era that are a little hokey are better than the CGI crapfests we get on a regular basis.

A great movie. For those who don’t know, the parting of the Red Sea was actually Niagara Falls upsidedown. Amazing effect before CGI

Agreed, but I don’t expect Hollywierd to pay any attention. Their world view has no space for Judeo-Christianity, either for movies or morality.

When you consider that most of the world has learned the story of the Ten Commandments from the DeMille movie,

you see how much good Hollywood can do and how much good can be spread using the film medium.

(in contrast to the way it is usually used).

I like most of the Ten Commandments except the one about adultery. I think it was a mistake to include that one in the first place, at least from a 20th century PR viewpoint.

I totally agree, this was a great spectacle and movie. It always leaves me wondering if there are scenes and storylines left on the cutting room floor by the studios, or by those wishing to shorten the movie so it finishes on time and in between commercials.

Been a bunch of Christian movies that have done very well at the box office and some that haven’t.

There was NEVER a time when Christian movies made up a large portion of movies coming out.

But the past 5 years have seen more than the previous 15.

$$ is usually the bottom line.
