Ben Cook - Religion in Film

This class has been one of my favorites to go to. That's not just because we watch a movie every time but it's because I have learned to appreciate movies as a work of art. This has also ruined some movies for me though. If a movie has no intentions and is just stupidity for 2 hours there is not much to appreciate, except for maybe the laughs. I am just trying to say that this class has caused me to look a little deeper into the movies that I watch. My paper, for example, was about Batman Begins. Before I just watched that movie and enjoyed it but after writing a paper about the transformation of Bruce Wayne, I appreciate the movie so much more. It's nice to know you can take so much out of a movie and not just waste 2 hours in front of a tv screen. Sometimes they have some sort of redeeming quality that you can use later in life.
