So, I read the comments people wrote about Dutcher on KSL.Com and commented to many people about my thoughts and feelings. This one guy, John, wrote a huge...
My daughter and I were extras in this movie. It's going to be pretty good I think. It has a great story line and a great ending. Lori ... From: Trevor...
Angie – Thanks for posting on this topic. Whenever I stumble onto the oft-repeated melodramatic "Mormon cinema is dead" mantra, I roll my eyes a little and...
Perry, Thanks so much for your comments. I am glad someone else was as horrified at the silly posts and rants people went on on the ksl.com board. And I am in...
These people that are criticizing movies like The Home Teachers and Dutcher's movies should see movies like Charly, The Best Two Years, Saints & Soldiers, and...
LDS Cinema is most assuredly not dead. General Conference that just ended was the conference of a fully matured Church which has emerged from obscurity. When...
... If you are indeed sitting on a pile of money and want to do something for LDS cinema I'm sure there are a number of folks here who would like to do...
John is an idiot, he may THINK he understands LDS doctrine but he doesn't have the first idea about film making and artistic license. Thom ... -- Thom Duncan...
... doesn't ... LOL - or the atonement - my understanding is it's universal, and all you have to do is accept Jesus as your saviour and "boom" atoned. All else...
The problem here isn't understanding the Atonement but understanding the @&*!& movie! The final scene in "States of Grace" wasn't trying to suggest that now...

Haha... Well, in fairness, "Prophet" wasn't a film. If it had been, surely I'd have gotten it right! :-) Eric ... ******** Movie reviews and "Snide Remarks":...
I've actually got a screenplay version of the musical, where I've made some substantial improvements on the script itself. Having to re-think it as a film...
Yes, that's the same impression I got from the last scene. I did think it was incredibly cheesy, though, and as a father I was rather uncomfortable with a...
... What the H*** does this have to do with LDS films? If this is what most Mormons expect to see in LDS film, then I, for one, hope it is dead. There is more...
I think, however, that there are two schools of thought at current contrast in the LDS church. One (which I consider old-school, Bruce R. McConkie-era, fueled...
I think the average person does expect films made by LDS people - especially films made about and for LDS people - to be family friendly. If LDS cinema has...
I'm not necessarily opposed to the family friendly film as long as the films makes don't confuse family friendly with inoffensive. The kind of films Liken does...
... the films ... Inoffensive and family-friendly. Hmmm... Father of the Bride Cheaper by the Dozen Are we there yet? and all the sequels of the above and then...
Okay, about the Atonement... Isn't the Atonement free to all?--meaning that Christ suffered for everyone's sins and thus we have the Atonement, which "rights...
