Russell Crowe film ‘Noah’ edited to appease Christians upset by ‘historical inaccuracies’

According to The Wrap, Paramount Pictures has edited Darren Aronofsky’s Noah — which stars Russell Crowe in the titular role — in order to avoid offending Christian viewers.

Aronofsky allegedly told an associate that he was “not happy” when he learned that Paramount had appended a disclaimer to both the film and promotional materials for it.

At the request of the National Religious Broadcasters (NRB), Paramount added a disclaimer which reads, in part, that “[t]he film is inspired by the story of Noah. While artistic license has been taken, we believe that this film is true to the essence, values, and integrity of a story that is a cornerstone of faith for millions of people worldwide. The biblical story of Noah can be found in the book of Genesis.”

Historical inaccuracies?????

Yes, Didge, sadly the Christian religion--in particular, the RC's--have been trying to manipulate the truth of the Bible since the Council of Nicea.

Don't particularly like Russell Crowe. His public behaviour is as bad Justin Bierber's.

Indeed very true Quill, though am interested to watch the film mind.

Meanwhile, my deeply held faith is that the sky is purple, and I will take great offense if you say that I said it was green!
