Synopsis
the plot synopsis reads like the back of a dvd cover 24.55.214.41 (talk) 21:23, 1 March 2015 (UTC)
- I don't know how easy it will be to create a lucid plot summary. The movie is difficult to get hold of and even more difficult to watch. I've heard it's posted on YouTube but I'm not sure about that anymore because I can't find it. Padillah (talk) 14:00, 3 January 2024 (UTC)
- It's not hard to find; it's streaming for free on Freevee, Tubi, the Roku Channel, and more. -- Nat Gertler (talk) 14:19, 3 January 2024 (UTC)
Notability
I tagged this for notability when I checked Rotten Tomatoes and found that it had zero reviews from the major critics. The sourcing currently on the article is all just a database and an apologetics organization. --Nat Gertler (talk) 04:46, 5 September 2016 (UTC)
Answers in Genesis
I first removed AiG as a source for anything but their own opinion, as AiG is a notoriously unreliable source, as their history at WP:RSN shows.
However, with further investigation, I am now even removing their own opinion. They do not appear to be a third-party source at all. They are advertised on the film's website, and Answers in Genesis was rounding up sponsors for the film, as they explain in this video and as can be seen on their website. At least one source describes AiG as producing the movie, although I am not sure if that's quite an accurate descriptor of the relationship. --Nat Gertler (talk) 03:58, 31 January 2017 (UTC)
- I restored it, as that was uncalled for. There is no reason to believe AiG is not reliable concerning the endorsements of other creationists. I know for a fact that Ray Comfort, at least, has a very close relationship with AiG and a long friendship with Ken Ham (they frequently promote each other's material and organizations). The endorsements were originally cited on the website of A Matter of Faith, but the reference was removed, so I had to cite AiG's website itself. Additionally, AiG may have helped promote the film, but it did not produce the film. As a creationist organization, it is natural for an organization like AiG to strongly promote one of the very few Christian creationist films that actually was shown in theaters. --1990'sguy (talk) 15:39, 31 January 2017 (UTC)
- Part of the question was were they paid to promote the film, or were they in other ways financially involved. They may not be an independent third party. --Nat Gertler (talk) 21:10, 20 April 2019 (UTC)
Dove review
I just revived the Dove review, pointing to an archive instead of a dead link. However, this film appears to no longer be in the Dove site's large database, leading me to wonder if there was a reason it has been removed and whether we should consider the review retracted. --Nat Gertler (talk) 21:09, 20 April 2019 (UTC)
