OK, so we (me, wife and 2 little kids) are watching a Star Wars movie on Spike cable.   I'm battling our 8 mo old GSD, trying not to have him grab anything and everything on the ground when a commercial comes on.   Looks innocent enough.  Dennis Quaid in a greasy spoon and a women and old lady talking when WTF.....

See at 20 seconds.  Grandma is overtop.  Makes Predator or Freddy K look like a Girl Scout.   My little ones were watching in shock and I couldn't find the remote to change the ch.  Probably wouldn't have either because the trailer had to be seen by me.

Legion

Old lady was awesome,movie as a whole will probably suck though.

In before the 5 pages of blasphemy comments and scripture lectures.

Ah yes, the classic racks of guns with a single loaded magazine inserted.

I'll probably pass on the lets take Christianity and twist it into a Sci-Fi flick.

I think I'll pass on something that amounts to "God is a meanie".

If they are Angels... how would a gun hurt them? Do they take material form? And what happens if a Angel dies on earth. do they go to heaven? and if they go to heaven does that mean God has a infinite amount of angels to throw at us? What is the best round for a angel? or for that matter scary looking old people?

Fangoria magazine didn't say anything bad about it.

Remember the really long limbed ice-cream man? Fangoria made a comment about "invasion of the body snatchers". I don't remember how exactly they put it, but I'd suspect that they occupy the local native population.

That might have been what happened to the old lady.

I'll pass.  The whole angels/demons fighting thing seems cool, but why spend money on a movie that says there is a God and he is the bad guy?  Is the Devil a good guy then?  I may change my mind upon reading more reviews and seeing what the plot really is, but I'm suspicious of movies now.

I still havent figured out why the Archangel Michael would need an M-16 with an M-203 grenade launcher........

Not that your post infers it, but my post wasn't really meant to hype the movie.  I just found the trailer commercial to be "WOH", especially the old lady scene that my kids witnessed.  They go to church and there are lots of sweet "blue haired" grandmas that always fawn over them.  A scene like that can mess a kid up.

Kind of like when I saw Jaws and I was living in FLA then.  9 years old and after that I didn't want to go in our in ground pool let alone the ocean.

Because he is American, and supports the 2nd Amendment

Easy, with an M-16/M203...duh
Movie looks cool, I will watch it.

I may not see it at the movies, but I will see it eventually.

I think I would find that plot stupid even if I were not Christian.

That would be like the Care Bears hunting down the smurfs with automatic weapons and a lot of CG.  I actually burst out laughing at the stupidity when I first saw the trailer in the theater.

To those who want to see it, enjoy, I guess.

Supernatural is already doing the whole angels/demons/here comes Armageddon thing.

But Legion might sill be worth a look, on dvd if not at the theater.

I'll admit I thought the little old lady going Gollum and trying to tear out a throat made me recoil at first and then chuckle.  Heh, you think the ones that pinch your cheeks are bad...

Movie already sucks. An omnipotent being would already know the outcome of its creation, and wouldn't need to lay by and watch it unfold. If it got tired of it or thought it was doing bad it would just will it out of existence.

Liberal Hollywood crap. God sends Angels to kill people.....great.

Poorly thought out premise and plot. It's what I've come to expect from Hollywood these days.

Yup, pretty much.
