      I was so glad to hear this. I want to make faith based films even if only indirectly via parables but the Christian market thus far has been such an embarrassment. I've tried to emphasize to fellow Christians that we ought to strive to be better but they dismissed it and used God as a justification. Ironically, that's the same reason I believed the quality needed to increase.

      I'm working on a script right now that would be perfect for this. Low budget, high concept, faith based. So, since I've never done this before, could someone give me a breif rundown of how it typically works with trying to get scripts into their hands?

          Wake me when they launch the FoxFilth banner.

            I can't wait til FoxFaith and Walden Media get in a bidding war over some faith-based property and resort to decidely un-Christian tactics to land the material.

                They will be losing a ton of money on the home video side as prospects for double-dipping "unrated" editions is slim.

                  Any word on whether "Temptation Island: The Movie" will be released under the FoxFaith banner?

The story hinges on the main characters experiencng and coming to terms with a bona-fide miracle.
                        Is it about the miracle that Mel Gibson got off with only a DUI conviction?

                          I wish Fox success. I just hope that these films aren't too delightful and cheerful that they bring even more ridicule and disdain than the Christians already get.

                          I wrote a religous script, but I used the Devil to drive my story.

                          Maybe these flicks will be solid.

                            Finally, maybe I can get my devil-worshipping war epic out there. I mean, a faith's a faith, right? I also have a road movie based around the occult practices of thelema.

                              Devil scripts are hot right now.
