This can't be real, right? No self-respecting studio hack would be so crass as to be quoted saying:

"If you get past the Milton of it all, and think about the greatest war that’s ever been fought, the story itself is pretty compelling”

or:

“Less Adam and Eve and more about what’s happening with the archangels...In Eden there’s the nudity problem, which would be a big problem for a big studio movie.”

or, the capper:

"This could be like ‘The Lord of the Rings,’ or bigger."

Aw hell, one more for the road:

"[It would be] made with total adherence and respect to any of the three religions’ involvement in the story of God, the Devil and the archangels. [But] it’s a war movie at the end of the day”

So, it'll be like Gettysburg meets The Loss of Sexual Innocence? Holy crap, that's the best idea ever. I hope they get the team who put together 300 involved!!!

But, since this isn't real, and could never happen on this Earth...NY Times, thanks for the Sunday morning LOLs.
