Saw Kingdom of Heaven tonight. It's a pretty solid movie, I think. Makes me curious to read and see if they kept the fall of Jerusalem sort of historically accurate.
The movie seemed to be used somewhat as a platform for sentiments about Jerusalem being a city that should be shared, not something that should be fought over. I certainly agree with those sentiments, however, I think any movement towards sharing the city at this moment in history will cause a strong, negative reaction on all sides. Fundamnetalist Christians would be drawn directly into the violence because of the whole Revelations deal, thinking that the armies of the anti-Christ were now making their moves and massing.
