1217 War of the Worlds

Barbara Nicolosi at Church of the Masses has a long list of Whys in her review, beginning with why are there only 5 people in a theater that seats 500? But this Why was my favorite:

"Why doesn't the ACLU arrest Speilberg for being blatantly pro-Christian? (I mean, nobody in the WHOLE movie breathes the smallest prayer while the human race is being systematically exterminated. So, I figured, the filmmakers must be saying that all the Christians must NOT be getting exterminated. That is, the aliens are only killing the unbelievers who don't pray -- the Christians must have put lamb blood or something on their lintels off screen. Anyway, I think that must be pretty offensive to the ungodly...)"

My own Why, Why were we seeing Tom Cruise every time the TV is on? is now answered. It was a full court press--a trumped up controversy between him and Brooke, the Lauer interview, and probably a fake engagement, all to keep his name in the news to hype this movie.
