I've been scoping out entertainment alternatives lately -- funny what happens when you type something like "clean Christian comedy" into youtube. Yet another reminder that any technology can be used for good as well as evil. If you're in need of a good laugh and you've got seven minutes, I suggest you watch this video of comedienne Kerri Pomarolli. Enjoy!
Someone sent me a great resource after reading my big media manifesto earlier in the week. Check out Movie Guide when you're looking for Christian-based movie reviews and suggestions. Here are their "Ten Best 2005 Films for Mature Audiences" with a couple comments from yours truly about ones I've seen.
1. PRIDE & PREJUDICE: I have to confess that I'm a HUGE fan of the BBC 5-hour version with Colin Firth, so I'm not the most unbiased commenter. I did see this newest version and it was pretty good.
2. BATMAN BEGINS: I thought this was an excellent superhero movie. Lots of probing about good and evil and what one man can do.

Re: hollywoodblasphemy.com
My mother forwarded me a link to your website and I’ve spent the past week in serious contemplation. Agonizing might be too strong a word, but the actual emotion is somewhat close to that.
You see, I love movies. I’ve loved movies for as much of my life as I can remember. And quite frankly, I’ve been pretty ticked off in the past couple years to find that I can’t go to as many as I used to because I’m offended by the violence, or the blatant sexuality, or the callous indifference to, if not outright blasphemy against God.
