BEN HUR
I haven’t seen the 50’s version. I went in with no expectations.
I thought it was well done. There were some historical inaccuracies (I’m guessing they were in the original 19th century novel) and it seemed a little rushed in places (again I’m guessing to cover the many things in the novel.) Performances were great and all other aspects were fine.

It seems a little miraculous that such a remake would be greenlighted. Why another one?
Oh well, we gained an important message about forgiveness in these troublous times. With ‘The Big Glitch’ and ‘The Great Culling’ and all, we need to be reminded.
We all need to remember that, as children and grandchildren, nieces and nephews, brothers and sisters are raped to death, our hearts must ENTIRELY be set upon rapturously loving the murderous hordes. If we don’t, an angel cries. If, while the latter day Romans and their auxillaries tear apart family and neighbors in the most agonizing ways, we fail to forgive with all our hearts and love the Roman Satanists more than anyone else, Catholic Jesus has a sad. IF YOU DARE, for one moment, try to remember that they could have, knowing this was coming, stockpiled everything necessary to protect the entire population for a tiny fraction of annual gov’t budgets, instead of praying with all your soul that the psychopathic Luciferians who set us all up will receive salvation and heaven, Catholic God will think YOU are a TOTAL DICK.
No, It is those hateful Christians who cry “How long, Lord?” who deserve to watch it all happen to their loved ones. Catholic God will cast THEM into Hell.

They say BEN HUR is the only fictional novel approved by the Popes.
