Ricky Gervais Has Ruined Me For The New Noah Movie





Like it wasn't already ruined to begin with.

Oh, Darren Aronofsky is directing this one. With the whole "flooding the whole world" bit I thought for sure this was a Roland Emmerich joint, what with his experience destroying the planet many times over in movies like Independence Day, Day After Tomorrow and 2012.

I like Russell Crowe so I'll go see "Noah" (glad to see Emma Watson's in it too) but it's hard to swallow all the religious baggage it will come with. Will come back and watch Ricky Gervais' video on the subject when I have enough time -- he's my fave atheist!

He's every old guy in every movie blockbuster these days.

I regard these Old Testament stories like any other bronze age mytho-historical hero epic from the time of oral storytelling - like Beowulf or The Odyssey. I don't need to believe in them to enjoy them.

That does make sense. I just have always had fun mocking the Noah story since childhood. Even in Sunday school I never bought it for a second. Carnivores eat Herbevores - that's the terrible way this Life of Pi moment ends.

"Just a friend" -- LOL! Great stuff!

My wife is an Aronofsky fan, so I'll probably see it. I like that it's apparently going to touch some some apocryphal elements of the story.
