God is for real, 90 min in heaven, war room, etc etc. All disgusting ways in which supposed followers of Christ allow our faith to be mixed within the ultimate realm of fantasy (as if Christians already dont have enough issues with folks calling us psychotic or following fairy tales). So what's the response from Christians at disbelief or mocking? Create a cheesy ass film filled with fake ass "moments" hoping to convert folks because they paid $12 and heard heaven is for real from some shoe on the big screen. How does it make any sense to mix Christianity into an industry that is built to "entertain", to create an "escape" for an hour or so. Does it strengthen the Christian message or does it subtly confirm what our biggest proponents say against us? That God is one big fantasy and a form of mental masturbation in order to entertain yourselves?
Maybe we should create Christian strip clubs where they dancers wear biblical outfits in order to expose to the masses Jesus and God 
You realize this has basically been Christianity's goto for conversions through most of it's history right (if we exclude war and the like)? Christmas is based off of a drunken roman celebration, Io Saturnalia (I'm pretty sure there were orgies). The missionaries wrote musicals to convert the american indians. And how can we forget the epic master piece called Veggie Tales. Christianity is basically a religion that was authored by hackneyed plagiarists with a slight bent for musical drama. Christians even stole their god from Judaism, and then they gave him some sex appeal so he could have a son.
EDIT: I do certainly agree that the quality of recent christian propaganda has gone down hill considerably. They lost track of their audience and don't have much of relevance to say in today's world. They need a new message, and they're trying to sell out hard to get one.

I just watched the new Left Behind movie and was a little disappointed.
Not sure if the makers of it were taking a Christian theme and just wanted to make a Hollywood blockbuster or if they were trying to get the Christian message on the big screen.
If it was the first reason?
It wasn't a very well made movie. They were on the plane way too long! I now realize that this might be because they are gonna make more left behind movies with Nicholas Cage as the main Actor. My point is as a movie it wasn't a very well movie, some acting in it was terrible, But of course this happens in any movie.
If it was the second reason?
It's just Christians trying there best to spread the word. And that just like any group wanting to share a message they will use ways that reach out. Will people come to God because of this latest movie? maybe not based solely on the movie it self, but who's to say that God can't use it to make someone believe.
In my opinion a christian movie has a greater chance of reaching someone if in it the viewer sees Christian morals in action, Christian advice being given and acted upon and the subsequent good effect happening. But this way of reaching lost souls is flawed too. The Bible says that no one comes to him first, that he calls them and enables them. So if he is really there? he just using the good, the bad and the ugly to ultimately separate the sheep from the goats.
Also I recently watched the new Moses movie, God And Kings.
I noticed that when Moses came back down from the mountain after meeting "The Boss" he is saying goodbye to his son and he says "here, keep this" referring to the staff he had when he met God. I see this Staff incident being intentionally put in the movie. Makes me think it was a movie made by atheist for atheist. But that's cool because it didn't change what I believe one bit. I guess it the same with Christian movies, if someone doesn't believe in God, a movie and popcorn and gonna do much. All the movie is doing is confirming the viewers views.

Haha I fucking hate Christian movies
The most abysmal and most terrible one I have seen thus far is God is Not Dead.
It is a slap in the face to not just non-believers but basically anyone who subscribes to logic and reasoning and pretty much anyone who isn't a fucking moronic and mentally insane quack. The logic and arguments used in that movie to try and prove that god is real is laughable and insulting, the creator of that movie is a scumbag moron who doesn't only know how to direct movies and make a good plot but his message is bullshit and his whole argument is completely unsound and ultimately offensive and terrible in every way possible.
The movie is ultimately trying to tell everyone that Atheists are just people who hate God and don't wanna believe in him because they've had a shitty life. They make the most thin and laughable argument to try and prove that god is real, they don't even use a single shred of proof or evidence and basically skim over trying to prove he exists and make the Christian character prove that god exists by randomly saying "Science supports his existence" when not even once did the character prove shit or show evidence.
The movie also sucks its own dick multiple times by thinking it is this masterpiece of godly proportions and then it tries to demonize all other religions and atheism and champion Christianity as the only true religion.
The Christian film industry is absolute garbage. Kirk Cameron and all these other Evangelical film producer morons who made movies like Left Behind and all these shitty Christian movies are literally some of the dumbest people on Earth. The state of the Christian film industry basically proves that god isn't real. What god would allow these people to make such a shit movie about his religion

I think the sequel to "Left Behind" has already been green lit even though it was critically panned.
That was literally one of the worst movies I have ever seen. The message was just absolute shit and it sucked at being a movie in every way possible.

I haven't seen the movie God Is Not Dead, so I'll just go with your thoughts on the movie. I think that movies like that are just someone sharing their beliefs. yes it's on a big subject but I can't see it's success or failure being the cause of great spiritual acceptance or rejecting. You could look at the movie in the same way like a drawn picture. If it's crap, it's crap. If the picture is about unicorns and done really well, others may not believe in unicorns but will at least like the picture. It sounds like the movie you saw was a very bad picture of a unicorn. But the belief in unicorns are greater then the picture, and so people still believe in them.
As for the state of the Christian movie makers. It's not impossible for them to make a great movie. Maybe it's a lack of money to make the high quality movies that people expect due to the standard of movies that Hollywood makes on a regular bases. Also, bad christian movies aren't proof of no God, for it could be looked at another way, the world don't wanna be saved and laugh at any attempts made, and..... find faults too. This is possible too. btw I don't mean that negatively to you 
But the is one more way to look at it. If any of what the Bible says is true, then the makers of the Christian movies are like someone trying to sell light bulbs to someone that want to live in darkness. And no matter how good the packaging of the lightbulb is if the person wants to remain in darkness nothing the lightbulb seller dose can change the other person mind. Mind you he could demonstrate the light. And here's where it begins to get complicated, just like life.

That would be a cool movie, if only the makers of such film didn't impose their belief system into the movie. They would have to at least have a good understanding of the Bible and the end times and not compromise on depicting what the Bible says. It would be a scary movie thought, The Bible says the world is going to experience things like never before, and that if God doesn't step in, no flesh will be left. Meaning to me that Mankind will go absolutely crazy!!!!!

Kirk Cameron's Saving Christmas Christian movie was a transcendent classic, not just the best Christian themed film of all-time but arguably among the top five in the history of film

Isn't that what "Left Behind" is about? I remember having to watch that stupid shit in Jail, I didn't pay a lot of attention though.

Dude Kirk is an all-time great...a living legend...he directed it, produced it, and starred in it. Now true, it did receive a slightly less than favorable rotten tomatoes rating of 0%, but we all know how the critics can be hit & miss.

I don't think I could sit through it... It's rated #1 on IMDbs bottom 100. I watched clips and the trailer and it looks horrible and boring 
Not to mention Kirk is a screwball and pretty much insane. If there is one person notorious for making bad christian films and giving the Christian film industry it's had name it's Kirk Cameron.
If you actually have fully and completely watched all his movies then I commend you for getting through all that.
I would rather watch "The Room" 20 times in a row then watch Left Behind again

Seriously though, I wonder if it would be worth giving a shot while tripping balls. Might be one of the most unintentionally hilarious movies ever
It looks like they shot it on a $500 dollar budget

It's astonishing what a grip right-wing Christianity has over the USA.
Could you imagine an atheist, a Muslim, Buddhist or Hindu becoming President?

Since pretty much all we ever get is shit anyways, I'd love to see a Muslim president. Half the country's jimmie's would be rustled on nearly a daily basis. I'm sure it'd get old after awhile but for the first few months, it'd be pretty hilarious.
