Star Wars meets The Ten Commandments

Could you imagine a movie that combines "Star Wars" with "The Ten Commandments"? Pastor Richard Gazowsky of the Voice of Pentecost church in San Francisco said that God spoke to him, "commanding him to make a million-dollar science fiction blockbuster," according to The Maneater. The film that he's working on as a result is a futuristic retelling of the biblical story of Joseph, tentatively titled "Gravity: The Shadow of Joseph".

A documentary, "Audience of One," has been made about the filming of this blockbuster. While the documentary was made, only two shots of Gazowsky's movie were actually filmed. A biblical sci-fi epic. . .sounds interesting.

Are there any good Biblically-based movies?

I have watched many Biblically-based movies, but none seem to compare to the impact of the Bible itself. I watched The Nativity Story last week -- it was OK. The Passion of the Christ was pretty good.

Biblically-based movies either seem to catch a very brief snapshot of the Bible in two to three hours, or they are enormously long epics like The Ten Commandments.

What is it about Biblically-based movies, that none have the same power and passion as the Bible itself?

What are your thoughts? What's your favorite Biblically-based movie?
