Went to see the movie 'Wolverine' today. I know its an action flick but, man... what a disposable movie: too many characters, too much plot, all crammed into 1 hr. 45 min. which results in not enough character development and me not caring much about what happens. If there is one thing we learn from our Creator and His redemption of us... besides the fact that He loves His people... is that He loves a good story. Bad story telling as a means to further one's celebrity or enhance profits (Wolverine made 87 million dollar domestically in it first weekend; over 160 million worldwide) simply exploits the audience. I suppose the celebrities, movie-makers and maybe even the audience doesn't really care. But there is a price to pay when our culture becomes vapid... so do we.
