Why would Christians watch movies? This is not a question many of us have often asked ourselves... When we realize movies are full of violence, bad language, and plenty of other things we try to avoid, we begin to understand that movies may not provide much for our faith. Movies are also (typically) made by people who often hold different beliefs that Christians, so why should we bother to watch them if they are not helping us become closer to God? Well, there are a few reasons that should be considered. In this video essay, we explore the very purpose of what movies can serve for our faith and why we should be humbled enough to learn from them. This video is based on the essay written by James Sinclair on his website jrsinclair.com. Much of James' original essay was omitted for pacing reasons, but you can read his brilliant essay here in its entirety: https://jrsinclair.com/articles/2012/why-christians-should-watch-movies/ I wanted to put together a video that shows the importance of movies in accordance with what is most important to us: our faith in Jesus. And because I know it’ll be asked: NO, I haven’t seen all of the films featured in the video; There's 227 movies featured and I haven’t seen (I think) 5 of them... but I’ll get around to those last few...

A mysterious avocado with transcendent knowledge of how to save the human race comes into contact with two idiots... Another experimental short comedy sketch we shot in a few hours with NO BUDGET and decided to have some fun making a skit. As always, we want to show that filmmaking doesn't require much in order to make it happen, so if you have an idea, no matter how ridiculous, get out there and shoot it.... and throw in an avocado as a snack at the end if you can. Enjoy!

What would happen if two burglars broke into your house and instead of stealing your stuff, they were trying to fix the place up? Would you be mad or open to their suggestions? In making this short comedy sketch, we wanted to see if we could shoot something in 1 day that looks professional and spend $0 on the production... and we DID IT.... well, technically it cost about $10 for those ridiculous masks, but close enough! We only had five people on set and we used minimal resources to make this (which is why the sound isn't the best), but we hope this inspires other filmmakers with no budgets to make their short films. GET OUT THERE AND DO IT. Plus, it was a blast to make another Cuz Production skit again. Enjoy!
