thessalonian Posted December 26, 2005 Posted December 26, 2005 Well of course I haven't even seen it yet. I don't think it's out yet. But I was listening on Conan the other night. Helen Hunt, the mother in the movie was on. All she did was diss the Catholic Church. Said she got her acting started going to Catholic Mass and acting like it was interesting. A few other things to. The usual. Real funny. We liked the first one but this one is off the list. That's 9 less tickets they'll sell. I'm not telling you what to do. Just telling you where I am at with the media's continuous making a joke out of Catholicism. They wouldn't have ever done that with a Jew or Moslem. Blessings
HomeTeamFamily Posted December 26, 2005 Posted December 26, 2005 esp on conan who claims to be catholic
missionseeker Posted December 26, 2005 Posted December 26, 2005 Carmen Electra was on Jay Leno and he asked her if she liked working with all those kids and she said "it made want to tear my uterus out" !! how sad for her.
Ash Wednesday Posted December 26, 2005 Posted December 26, 2005 To think that Helen Hunt did a movie with Mel Gibson.
missionseeker Posted December 26, 2005 Posted December 26, 2005 I just read you signature Ash Wednesday. I love it!
photosynthesis Posted December 26, 2005 Posted December 26, 2005 this is all quite sickening i think the reason why I'm happy right now is that I don't watch much tv.
missionseeker Posted December 26, 2005 Posted December 26, 2005 I don't really either. We only hav e3 channels lol
Philosopher Posted December 26, 2005 Posted December 26, 2005 Thank you for the heads up, I will definitly not be seeing this movie.
zabbazooey Posted December 26, 2005 Posted December 26, 2005 I hate Hollywood's double standard with poking fun at religions
avemaria40 Posted December 26, 2005 Posted December 26, 2005 If I ever get in a movie, and I get asked how I feel working with alot of kids, I'll smile and say, i'd envy the family reunion they could have when the kids are grown

[right][snapback]836221[/snapback][/right] [/quote] I hate tv. It use to be full of good programs that were good to watch. Now everything on just makes crude jokes about religion and scandalizes everybody who happens to have a glimps at the horrible satire that they use to bash the Catholic Church. I think I'll stick with good movies and books from now on.

dUSt Posted December 26, 2005 Posted December 26, 2005 Did she make any offending comments about the Church? I don't see the big deal about the learning to act comment.

she_who_is_not Posted December 26, 2005 Posted December 26, 2005 If you haven't already, go reant the original movie made back in the day. It's out on DVD and it is wonderful. There is a great scene where this woman comes to the door and asks Mrs. Gilbreth if she would like to start a Planned Parenthood chapter in their town and she calls all 12 children into the room, and the woman is just horrified. Also, rent or read the sequel [i]Bells on Their Toes[/i]. I think the books are both out of print but you can find them used. Best of all, the Gilbreth family of the original were real. There is also a remake out right now of the sixties classic Yours, Mine, and Ours. Again, go rent the original. It has Lucille Ball and Henry Fonda in it and is just a great family movie and demonstrates how loving and rich large families are. Peace, Amanda
homeschoolmom Posted December 26, 2005 Posted December 26, 2005 Aside from all this, the previews look just horrible...
scardella Posted December 27, 2005 Posted December 27, 2005 Yeah, they had success remaking an old movie, and because it's a family movie, they figured they'd milk people for extra $$$ by making a cruddy sequel... What's new?

I don't recall everything she said but it was all making her Catholic upbrining a big joke. Nothing positive about it. Edited December 27, 2005 by thessalonian
