I saw the previews…KC’s acting made me cringe a little. Not a good sign. I’d still like to see it at some point. No hurry though.

I think the title graphic is predictable, but I’m mostly able to get past that (so much of what’s popular in the film industry today is predictable anyway—unfortunately my expectations for excellence in film these days are low). It was all of the awful plays on words that turned my stomach. “It’s time to say ‘I do’ to Fireproof?!?” AAUGH!

If you ask me he just wants attention by being the “best christian ever!!!:-)” Dude its a movie, not an office tramp. you can still be loyal to your wife even if you kiss someone onscreen becuase its just acting. Like saying “I love you” as part fo the script. He sounds like he would be a royal pain to work with. Note to self: If I ever make a movie for some bizzar reason, DONT hire Kirk Cameron.

I saw Fireproof this weekend and thought it was great. I think that every married couple should see this movie. I listen to all my married fiends talk about the things they struggle with and i think this movie really speaks to a lot of the struggles couple have. There were a few cheesy parts, but i think it was even a step up from Facing the Giants. I think a lot of people are skeptical of “Christian” movies, but i would say, “don’t knock it till you’ve seen it”.

For the record, I would never actually kiss any woman other than my wife anywhere, anytime, nor for any reason. I like living. (I also like having a clear conscience.)

Regarding the movie, I’m so tired of “Christian” being synonymous with “second rate” that I’m not even motivated to go see movies like this anymore. The Left Behind series of books was just embarrassing, my sister uses them in her English Composition class to teach how NOT to write dialog. Can it really be true that the majority of the christian book-buying public reads at a 6th grade level?

We have literally the greatest story ever told to tell, why can’t we do a better job of telling it? When I look at some of the low-budget secular stuff that’s still creative and well done, I can’t just excuse shoddy Christian productions as being due to inadequate financial resources. I’m with Von.

Let the christian marketing machine begin. Watch the Fireproof book and Bible studies appear. It will be “40 days of blah blah” books, t-shirts, pens, wrist bands etc. It happens with ANY movie that can be jumped on. Remember the “Greatest evangelistic event in 2000 years” The Passion and any remotely christian movie since? Christian marketing clearing houses will jump on it and our mailboxes will be flooded. They are always looking for the next big evangelistic thing! But the most effective evangelism in the last 2000 years is the method that started 2000 years ago. People telling People!
