#1 pass the pop corn. The fisking opportunities will be infinite.

Oh, BTW isn't it illegal to portray the Big Mo? So what's this going to be, talking turbans?

#2 I wonder if the Shiites will like the film's Sunni take on Imam Ali and the issue of their prophet's succession.

#3 Spend your money now, guys. In a few years, when
Canada, the US, and Israel are major oil and natural gas exporters, you won't have nearly as much to spend on such frivolities.

#7 1. How do you make a movie based on the life of a guy whose image can't be displayed under penalty of teeth-gnashing, rioting and murder? Will this be shot in first-person style like a video game?
2. Will the film contain scenes depicting his marriage to Aiesha?

#13 A billion dollars? Nothing too good for Mo. That amount could feed hungry Paks, but a lot will go to the massive burkha budget.
