Noah

[Ayen]

I am interested in seeing this film, though I expect it to get massively downrated on IMDB due to the liberties they have taken in this film... as is always the way with such movies. For instance I remember reading about The Davinci Code got massively downrated even though it was started numerous times that it was a complete work of fiction lol.

Oh my God. I used to sit in a Sunday school classroom where the teacher did a whole lesson plan about this. Claiming that the author really did believe the mystery he wrote in the book but passed it off as fiction so he could get published. All the anti Davinci Code nonsense was ridiculous. My mom ended up watching it anyway because Tom Hanks.

Either way I still want to go see this film, how was Crow in it? Did he have a weird accent in the film? *looks towards Robin Hood".

No accent as far as I could hear. Crow fitted the part of Noah pretty damn well.

Actually the stuff about the Watchers were originally in the Bible in the Book of Enoch which was removed from the Bible over the years. It is one of the Apocrypha Books now and was a pretty interesting read to be honest. I am now more interested in seeing this movie now because of learning they actually incorporated them into the story.

First I heard of it. That's pretty cool.

They're still changed from what they were in the Apocrypha, though.

I disagree with you on one point, ToriJ - I am Catholic and the film definitely was a religious experience for me, though I can see the universal appeal in it. Overall, I think it's an incredibly beautiful movie. The world created here is amazing and some of the scenes are ibcredibly breathtaking - the world creation scene blew my mind and has probably become my favorite movie scene of all time. Considering Aronofsky's atheism, I must say he has a ton of sensitivity with him, since this movie really resonated strongly with my wife and I. The characterizations were also really strong, and I agree some liberties needed to be taken to make the movie enjoyable. Still, the spirit of the biblical story was there and it really felt profound to me. The acting is top notch on everyone, though I think Russel Crowe, Jennifer Connelly and Emma Watson were above the others in terms of that.

I really loved the movie.

Well then. I suppose my spiritual side really is dead.
