I saw Evan Almighty on HDDVD some weeks ago and I keep watching it to and from. I think It's a great movie. It isn't so highly rated on IMDB and I think there is some really bad acting by some characters. I think it was funny and some things "God" said were great.
Here is my favorite quote:
God: Let me ask you something. If someone prays for patience, you think God gives them patience? Or does he give them the opportunity to be patient? If he prayed for courage, does God give him courage, or does he give him opportunities to be courageous? If someone prayed for the family to be closer, do you think God zaps them with warm fuzzy feelings, or does he give them opportunities to love each other?
God in the movie also reminds me of how I understood the real creator god. God doesn't want all these buildings, he wants nature. That's why I like Revelations; the old earth gets destroyed in favor of the new earth.
