That's the real overall effect, of crap like that. <BR/>However, the Bibleman franchise is making Willie Ames MILLIONS. Let's just call it like it is. Actors, are really just convincing salespeople, be it ideas, reality, salvation. We know for sure when a persons past as an actor is this obvious, the idea of salvation becomes even more transparent. <BR/>The only problem is that the areas of christian "ethical" entertainment is so pathetically insular that little is needed in order to entertain them. <BR/>Look at what most fundamentalist call "entertaining". Kirk Cameron keeping it "real", would be rather refreshing in comparison. <BR/>Thus, you have fading glimmers of nothing grabbing for the last few millions.bucketoflulzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11334243847911165391noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33241741.post-79533514013208196432008-12-03T19:03:00.000-06:002008-12-03T19:03:00.000-06:00Quick question....What does "RTC" stand for?

If he expected some job, or a few wild parties to fulfill him, then he was being unrealistic from the get-go. <BR/><BR/>So, he had a crappy job, got drunk and/or high a lot, and then changed everything about his life. That wake up call is what made the difference, not religion.<BR/><BR/>At the risk of sounding like proponent of the "true Scotsman fallicy", I would argue that he was just a christian going through a rebellious phase. He got it out of his system, settled down, and became a happier person.Thomashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14299046445235601258noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33241741.post-24367731689768754872008-12-02T09:00:00.000-06:002008-12-02T09:00:00.000-06:00Willie Aames says the same thing.

I assume he thinks that his "acting" (and I do use that term loosely) in his Left Behind direct-to-video movies was of lesser quality than his Seaver-days...well, if so, that says a lot. <BR/><BR/>Of course, since I've seen far more of the Growing Pains than I care to admit, I can say that that show was not "da bomb", more like, "da bomb crater". I'd say that more actors think of TV as a stepping stone to bigger things than those that consider TV as the top. Not saying that TV actors are less than movie actors (as I've seen good and bad in both), just that movies tend to get more respect (and money, for leads) than TV.Badger3khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04008838430274720250noreply@blogger.com
