Holy crap! This is sure to stir the pot at the church PR department. The Book of Mormon musical and now this? The funny thing is, I wouldn't be surprised if Mormon baptisms actually increase over the next couple years. Bad publicity is far better than no publicity.

Crap! I never thought I would see the day when apologists would be called on to provide negative reviews of Opie. Those reviews will really piss the residents of Mayberry off.

Good grief. Ron Howard gets to screw up yet another book. By the time he is done with it, Brigham Young will end up looking like Mickey Mouse.

I'm excited for this movie. The book was one of the main segways for me to see how problematic the LDS church is. Should be pretty interesting...

The cool thing is people like Dustin Lance Black might even post on MDB.

If people like Trey Parker post here I hope they feel better knowing people like Issac Hayes died a horrible agonizing death because of you.
