Is it possible for you to enjoy a movie that isn't based on Christianity? If so then which ones? Note = I'm NOT judging you or your review, merely curious.
I’d just like to say that you need to get over yourself and with that odd lesbians comment it’s like dude, you seriously need to get over yourself. I’m not pc or woke but even I know that what you said is just odd and kind of dumb. This is just a movie, it also teaches children not to be satanic. So either you must’ve only watched the trailer of the movie or you hid the fact that it’s not satanic because you wanted a video. Also “ glorification of evil” look, that is plain dumb. Also the film industry is corrupt in a different way than the films they put out. It’s corrupt because of the parties, drugs, all that shit. But not the films they put out. This is a funny movie for kids that teaches them to be a good person.
I've addressed all you've said in previous videos. It doesn't seem like you even know my arguments, so I'd suggest you do some research before you make silly assumptions.
@@DivineRedwood Every good story has to borrow some Christian principles, even if they are not deeply embedded into the story. A movie series I've enjoyed is John Wick. It's basically an ex-hitman killing a bunch of bad guys who are in the mafia. There are some good themes in there, but keep in mind anyone writing a story will be imperfect.
I think the premise is actually funny sounding. But man, the trailer for this movie looks incredibly unfunny. Also looks like it’s trying too hard to be like Beetlejuice.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts! Satan can take on the form of an angel of light. Sure, it may sound funny, but the way they are portraying evil is far from that.
Good on you for putting yourself out here on these YT streets, especially as one of the most hated groups on or offline, which is being a Christian - and on top of that you’re talking about things and backing it up with scripture. WOW! I’m impressed. I can imagine how much the goofies have turned up to fire negative comments at you. What was probably shocking to you is that some of the negative criticism you got probably came from so called Christians. If not, get ready. Still need to watch your epic 1hr and a half video, but good job on this one. Keep growing.
Thank you for the encouragement, brother! I have indeed seen the goofies in the comments. They're alive and well haha. Thick skin and laser focus are necessary in this kind of online space.
Thank you for bringing this up. It is so blatantly obvious from just the trailer this is demonic and has a satanic influence. From 1:39 saying "To: Satan" the horns, etc. I think this could potentially by a crappy horror movie, but as a wanna be comedy movie it's a big satanic flop. You're doing a fantastic job bringing light to stuff that has been dark for too long, keep it up!
Its a great conversation..soon as i saw it i tried to find a down to earth talk..im gnad you talk about stardards and mortality..i love god but haven talways..i always think of the word desearnment...and i like how you mention there is gore in the bibke..and wven the lord of rings i agree about the morality...jst czuse there is evil in it dosnt mean thats the point❤✝️🙏
Have you seen Carry On, yet? I agree with some of your objections to the movie in question in this video. But, the portrayal of Satan in it has almost nothing to do with Satan of the Bible. It's a Satan that comes completely from medieval Catholicism and late 19th to early 20th century occultism made popular by Anton Lavey. I would more precisely say they are deconstructing Christian moods. But, those moods aren't always exactly Biblical themselves. The reason I mentioned Carry On is because that movie does far more to glorify the actual Satan of the Bible than stupid movies like Dear Santa.
I’m not gonna lie, I literally thought of this idea for a rom com. My sister was watching this film where a little girl misspelled Santa and then somebody went and corrected it for her (the letter she wrote was asking Santa to let her mom fall in love). After seeing that scene, I then thought that it would be darkly humorous if that letter ended up going through to Satan and after reading the girl’s pleas, he’d try to do the opposite of her request. Since Satan destroys, I thought it would be true to his character for him to try and destroy the little girl’s mother’s chance at love. It would be a dark comedy, of course (with Satan’s plans foiled in the end). It was just a quick idea, and obviously it would be impossible to do it now without being called a copycat. But what do you think?
The issue with the movie I described and the difference between it and your idea would be based on how evil is showcased. In Dear Santa, evil is shown as goofy and fun, while in your idea it is not. If evil is explicitly shown as something good toward the viewer, it is antithetical to Christianity.
The concept of the movie is super original. It has definitely never been used in any comedy videos.. but seriously, the writers were really scraping the bottom of the barrel with the premise of this Movie.
I think I mostly agree on with you on things like depicting violence being okay with. That said, there is a difference between writing something and showing something. Maybe you already mentioned that point, I forget. But the difference between writing and showing things is the reason why I agree with the dreaded American double standard of being more opposed to [real] nudity or groping, etc compared to fake violence shown in movies/shows. Like, the Song of Solomon is a good book, not sinful, about appreciating sex and romance, and not as edgy as it is made out to be, but the writer would have never been willing to make detailed videos showing what the book talks about. Off the top of my head, Ezekiel says certain things(graphically talking about ejaculation, women wanting to be groped, and women "spreading their legs" and whoring themselves out for free) and it actually would be pornographic if the intention was to turn people on, but the things that he said would be wrong to show in video format, especially if real actors/actresses were involved. Directors probably shouldn't tell actors and actresses to do anything with each other that they would/should not do with their siblings. I think it is fair to say that the writers of the Bible and God would not condone an uncensored video being made of everything that happens in the Bible. The same could likely be said for excessive violence. I am not sure where the line with violence should be drawn, I think it is kind of a grey area based on things like the intention behind showing it and whether showing it truly adds anything of worthwhile value. Like, whatever theological problems there may or may not be with The Passion of the Christ movie, I approve of its use of goriness and if the cross is going to be depicted, it probably OUGHT to be gory. At least, it probably shouldn't be G-rated.
I think you got it bang on, man. In my opinion, we should use that creativity to imply instead of simply showing things for pure shock or tension because "it's so edgy". Part of being creative means finding creative solutions.
Just because I won’t see the movie doesn’t mean others have considered doing it. Thanks Ryder for doing a video about this, keep stepping out in faith! You may very well be apart of saving kids from this stupid depiction of humor
As someone who played Minecraft when it first came out, I'm not 100% on board with the style the producers have chosen, but the story may very well be great. Let me know how it goes!
It's hard to even watch those Saw clips without feeling anxious, yeah that movie is a world pulling device in the same way you see grandmas pulling the slots in Vegas. There has to be better forms of cinema for the Christian to be involved in absolutely. Hopefully someone on the fence saw this.
It's a bit more nuanced than that. Here's the short answer: It's true that the eye is the window to the soul and we must be careful as to what harms our conscience. However, the Bible--our standard of morality--has no trouble showing David and Bathsheba's adultery. In the Book of Judges, Jael drives a spike through the head of a sleeping enemy. If this was wrong to read, then God is the chief of sinners since he wrote it. God shows us evil and the results of sin so we can learn from it and mature as his people. The important thing is that evil and good in movies must be shown in the light of a biblical standard of morality, else it is not beneficial.
Good concepts, but the longer you go, the more you end up repeating yourself. Not sure if you need to focus on scripted videos or if it's just a matter of practice. You indicated that you're using notes to organize your thoughts, which is helpful, but it may be helpful to voice your thoughts out loud a few times before hitting the record button, just so you've thoroughly processed the thought before voicing it. That should limit instances of trying to find the right word in the moment. The less you have to invent on the fly, the less likely you'll be to rely on the verbal crutch of retreading old ground. Keep practicing and Merry Christmas!
100% man. Scripted videos are where it's at...I think it was good to at least try a more "unscripted" video style to see where it went but I'll focus on my strong suit which is organizing a thought-out script. Thanks for the feedback man!
Is it ever okay to enjoy an evil character? In a way that's not sinful or leads to it? Like look at marvel films, we like good villains but know they are still villains so it never goes to far.
Here's what I said to another commenter: The Bible--our standard of morality--has no trouble showing David and Bathsheba's adultery. In the Book of Judges, Jael drives a spike through the head of a sleeping enemy. If this was wrong to read, then God is the chief of sinners since he wrote it.

All truth is God's truth since the truth is universal. You seem to be implying everyone has a different standard of morality which means morality is relative. By this very definition which you seem to be implying everyone's morality is moot since it's all relative. Without God, there can be no consistent standard of morality. Relative truth does not exist since there would be no truth. It's self-refuting.
@TyranntX Could say the same for you bub dont push your standards onto me but ill accept it as God has. The Lord is God and His standard is the objective standard despite anyone else's differing opinion. Morality and doing whst is right and wrong is always at the center of everything and if you have God you can actually do and live according to what's right. So I encourage you to trust that Christ is God and seek him out.
A bit late to the party, aren't you? People have been talking about this for weeks. At this point, I'm frankly sick of hearing about it. I've heard it over and over - yes, this movie is satanic; yes, this movie is disrespectful to Christmas. It was based on a stupid joke that wasn't super-funny the first time. Jack Black is an atheist who didn't take Christianity seriously enough and put his foot in his mouth; "ascribe nothing to malice that can't be explained with stupidity", and so forth. I'm already not going to see this movie, and I already agree that Christians need to step up their film-game and "git gud" as the FromSoft fans like to say. Also it comes from the makers of "Dumb and Dumber" - an oddly appropriate choice, I must say. I'm sorry to be negative, I'm just sick of this topic popping up and ruining my Christmas at every turn. I think the best thing we can do is chalk this up to tone-deaf Hollywood, go see Sonic 3 instead, and ignore it. Better that an evil movie should die in obscurity than live in infamy.
Yes people have been talking about this for weeks, but this is the first time I’ve heard of the movie. Different people are able to reach others through their delivery of the topic. Same message, different viewers.
Brother, with all kindness, if you're sick of this topic why did you click on the video? You have the choice to not watch if you don't want to. Meanwhile, I'm going to speak about the topics that need to be spoken about.
@@RyderTheOmniscient You make very fair points, and I'm afraid I did lose my temper a bit. For that I'm sorry. Now, respectfully... does this really need to be talked about any more than it already has? At this point we're just giving the movie free press. Kind of like when the woke go ballistic over a movie that violates their ever-evolving sensitivities, so everyone goes to see it just to spite them.
@@ManFromThePits I see your point, man. I know I'm a bit late to the party in some respects. I plan on being more up-to-date with the trends so-to-speak. But this topic was too big of an issue to pass up.
I watched it. Premise was funny. Execution sucked. The acting was TERRIBLE. It was a flop of a movie. Would have been good as a horror movie with an evil devil. I think we all need to calm down about the "devil" aspect. We're actually overreating and unbelievers are rolling their eyes. The movie sucks, Steve, uh I mean "Satan" aside.
I see what you're saying. The main issue with this film and those like it is that evil is being portrayed as good and it's aimed at kids. "Woe to those that call good evil, and evil good!"
This was an amazing insight into the sense of victimhood I commonly see in Christians. To be so triggered and to feel so persecuted by the existence of some stupid movie is just surreal to me. I can hardly begrudge you for your views though, of course. Clearly you have been indoctrinated and brainwashed to reach this point so if anything, you have my deepest compassion and sympathy. I thank you for the video and while I do not know why it came up in my feed I was appreciative for the perspective.
Of course I've been indoctrinated. Everyone is indoctrinated into a certain belief system, and you're no exception. The fact people think that evil being mixed up with good is okay for kids to ingest is alarming.
So, I just finished watched the movie. It's like a 2.5/5. Theologically, it's just bad, but a Satanic Movie is required to elevate a person's base desires and the audience is supposed to applaud their selfish ambitions. This movie doesn't do that, so I can't say it's satanic. It's not good, the acting and writing are pretty weak, and it's occasionally funny.
Thanks for sharing! The main point I was trying to make is the "gamification" of evil and making it seem goofy. Maybe this movie isn't terrible in that regard, but it definitely trends toward that direction.
Do you think it's good practice to use words like "Satanic" or "glorifying evil" to a movie that only trends that direction? I see you've changed the title to the video. I'm not trying to do the normal "RUclips Comment Section" thing where I try to own you in a debate or anything, but the movie only *potentially* does something that you and I hate. Is it good to claim that it does?
I could see someone doing that with your channel name. "Ryder the omniscient? He's mocking God!" This is an extreme example, but I'm using it to prove a point of just because something volatiles our interpretation of a piece of media, doesn't mean our interpretation is correct. Does that make sense at all, or am I arguing for something I shouldn't argue for?
@@izzypophaha I could see where you're going but I don't see it as a conflict of interest. With my name for example: people might not get my sense of humor, but it's a self-depricating title. Anyone who knows what I stand for will know that title is not serious and pokes fun at the fact I'm not omniscient.
...i Really know qhy this mivie it is satans last try to take souls because i was see this year first week heavens and Jesus is going to back in Crhismas when ewerybody is hurry and dont ewen realizes that .Amen.
@@RyderTheOmniscient also saying a movie is satanic is stupid when you think about because your rapping on someone’s creation. Someone’s creativity. So if you think you’re helping by saying don’t watch this it’s satanic just think again.
I used to love the _Saw_ films, and yes, it was only for the shock value from the gore. That's really all it was selling. At one point I was trying to watch them all to experience how the story connected, but it's clear that the plotline is just an afterthought, much like porn movies themselves. I'm glad The Lord removed the desire from me to view such things.

I have a question does the Bible verse that say put no evil before my eyes mean we can't like any movie or game that has dark or serious moments
It's a bit more nuanced than that. Here's the short answer:
It's true that the eye is the window to the soul and we must be careful as to what harms our conscience.
However, the Bible--our standard of morality--has no trouble showing David and Bathsheba's adultery. In the Book of Judges, Jael drives a spike through the head of a sleeping enemy.

I see what you're saying. The main issue with this film and those like it is that evil is being portrayed as good and it's aimed at kids. "Woe to those that call good evil, and evil good!"
@@RyderTheOmniscient I wouldn't say it's to quite that degree since he's still the bad guy. Even though he's a pretty... stupid one.
I mean. We're at christians all about "Nefarious" when it came out? What's the difference.
@@NevetsM In Nefarious demons are shown to be evil. In this movie it's shown as fun and games. Completely different standard of morality.
This was an amazing insight into the sense of victimhood I commonly see in Christians. To be so triggered and to feel so persecuted by the existence of some stupid movie is just surreal to me. I can hardly begrudge you for your views though, of course. Clearly you have been indoctrinated and brainwashed to reach this point so if anything, you have my deepest compassion and sympathy. I thank you for the video and while I do not know why it came up in my feed I was appreciative for the perspective.
Of course I've been indoctrinated. Everyone is indoctrinated into a certain belief system, and you're no exception. The fact people think that evil being mixed up with good is okay for kids to ingest is alarming.
So, I just finished watched the movie. It's like a 2.5/5. Theologically, it's just bad, but a Satanic Movie is required to elevate a person's base desires and the audience is supposed to applaud their selfish ambitions. This movie doesn't do that, so I can't say it's satanic. It's not good, the acting and writing are pretty weak, and it's occasionally funny.
Thanks for sharing! The main point I was trying to make is the "gamification" of evil and making it seem goofy. Maybe this movie isn't terrible in that regard, but it definitely trends toward that direction.
Do you think it's good practice to use words like "Satanic" or "glorifying evil" to a movie that only trends that direction? I see you've changed the title to the video. I'm not trying to do the normal "RUclips Comment Section" thing where I try to own you in a debate or anything, but the movie only *potentially* does something that you and I hate. Is it good to claim that it does?
I could see someone doing that with your channel name. "Ryder the omniscient? He's mocking God!" This is an extreme example, but I'm using it to prove a point of just because something volatiles our interpretation of a piece of media, doesn't mean our interpretation is correct. Does that make sense at all, or am I arguing for something I shouldn't argue for?
@@izzypophaha Potentially? Humorizing evil to make it trivial is not a small thing.
@@izzypophaha I could see where you're going but I don't see it as a conflict of interest. With my name for example: people might not get my sense of humor, but it's a self-depricating title. Anyone who knows what I stand for will know that title is not serious and pokes fun at the fact I'm not omniscient.
Excellently put
Thank you
...i Really know qhy this mivie it is satans last try to take souls because i was see this year first week heavens and Jesus is going to back in Crhismas when ewerybody is hurry and dont ewen realizes that .Amen.
It shouldn't be made in first place 😕 😪 Hollywood is evil and need to stop 😫
Nope
We need a change for sure.
@@RyderTheOmniscient it’s not the films that are bad. It’s the people who are doing horrible things behind closed curtains. Or even on set.
@@RyderTheOmniscient also saying a movie is satanic is stupid when you think about because your rapping on someone’s creation. Someone’s creativity. So if you think you’re helping by saying don’t watch this it’s satanic just think again.
@@TheLike2346 One of the beautiful things about art is that we can and should criticise and learn from it. It's how we get better.

Saw is truly gore porn. I never understood the appeal.
I've heard that the first one might be the best one, but after that they went ham on the gore.
I used to love the _Saw_ films, and yes, it was only for the shock value from the gore.
That's really all it was selling.
At one point I was trying to watch them all to experience how the story connected, but it's clear that the plotline is just an afterthought, much like porn movies themselves.
I'm glad The Lord removed the desire from me to view such things.
