Oscar-winning Hollywood movie producer Barrie Osborne (The Matrix, Lord of the Rings) is poised to spend $150-million to film a biopic of Mohammed.

Says Osborne, "The film will educate people about the true meaning of Islam."

Somehow I doubt that...

Like the previous big budget film about the illiterate slave owner and war lord who founded the Muslim religion, the as-yet-untitled film won't show Mohammed's face.

Tsk, tsk.  It will not gross but about $30 million.

All those hadjis ripping DVD's and selling them for a buck will not make this guy much money.

Even if he makes a blatantly Islamic film that portrays Mohammed as the literal prophet and messenger of God and makes every effort to toe the line on the Koran, it will piss off more Muslims than it makes happy.  People will die as a result of this film.

That's what I was thinking too. They will be putting a bounty on him. If they make it, I hope it tanks.

That's the best part...they say in the write up that you will never see Mohammed...NEVER SEE MOHAMMED!!  
It will be the MOTHER OF ALL SUCK MOVIES....and possibly get everyone working on it a dose of real world reality as they get executed one by one for "offending the prophet" with the low gross.

Will they have the whole movie "accidentally" blocking Muhamed's face like they did with Austin Powers' wiener? That would be pretty funny, actually!

As for hollyweird, I think that they are simply being their anti-American selves. They support whatever enemy we are fighting, whether it is the VietCong, Castro or Islam. If Facism ever rises again (wait, too late!) they'd somehow glorify that too.

I heard Roman Polanski was going to be the director.  He's personally handling casting for the role of Aisha.

In 1976, Hollyweird made a film about Muhammud called "the message".
Basically it was the same thing, no "face" or "voice" of Muhammud.
it was sooo stupid filmed like that. and of course they totally exclude his marriage to Aisha.

And of course when shown in the USA........THERE WAS A SIEGE AND DEATHS.

I can't wait till this hits European theaters.

I have a feeling this film might not get made.
You can actually watch the old movie about Muhammud on youtube nowadays.

The Message 1976
From WIKI:

Response

On March 9, 1977, a group led by Hamaas Abdul Khaalis, seized several buildings and took 134 hostages in Washington, D.C.[2] The takeover led to the fatal shootings of a journalist and a police officer, and the non-fatal shooting of Marion Barry , who would become mayor of Washington, D.C. two years later. One of their demands was to prevent the release of the film. One of the hostage-takers specifically said, according to an on-site reporter, that "he wanted a guarantee from the whole world it will never be shown or they would execute some of the hostages".[3]


OH SNAP! It lead to the shooting of Marion Barry???
Oh please liberal hollywood!!! MAKE MORE FILMS LIKE THIS!!!!

I thought it is against Islamic law to have a "picture" drawn or printed of the face of Mohammed, wouldn't making a movie about him and showing his face (even if an actor) breaks that "law"?

This is hilarious, because to make a film about Mohammad is considered very very very very offensive to Muslims.  The irony is delicious.

Unless they portray Muhammed as a raging asshole, a pedophile, rapist, and murderer, it won't be historically accurate.

Even if it portrays him as the most awesome dude to ever walk the earth, it will still piss off muslims because you can't depict Muhammed for some asinine reason.

So either way, muslims are going to go  nuts over it (like they do about everything else) and everybody else is going to pan it because it's a piece of shit and a waste of film.

During the "cartoon-outrage" there were many examples of images in Iran that supposedly was of muhammed. I think they were said to in reality be images of imam Ali, wich was his cousin and son-in-law. I have no sources though. You'll have to google it yourself

If I remember correctly the sunnis claim Ali was just one of the rightful caliphs (after some assasinations), but the shias claim he was the direct successor or something.
