What If...(a.k.a. Let's Go Catholics!)
What if...what if...what if...what if...what if...
what if the Roman Catholic Church decided to abandon its medieval ways, and decided that the only way to survive would be to adapt, and that one way to do that would be to make Catholicism cool again, and the Catholic Church tied up with the Hollywood studios (but not in a Da Vinci Code sort of way), and they decided to make movies on the great biblical tales, like the fall of Jericho (in all its CGI-glory), or the story of Samson (but please not Gerard Butler because I don't like him that much), or the exodus from Egypt (in a sort of Cecil B. DeMille-Michael Bay hybrid), or David and Goliath, or the Christian conquest of Rome including the crucifixion of Saint Peter, or on the lives of saints, like Saint Francis of Assissi (but not Mickey Rourke again, please) and his power to talk to animals, or the Jesuit Martyrs of North America, including the execution of Saint Jean de Brebeuf through a gauntlet of Iroquois braves, or the flying saint Joseph of Cupertino?
Are those not way better stories than all these eighties nostalgia flying around (with the exception of a few fanboy flicks)?
