These films are quite literally explosive. And they give us a glimpse of what the Cannes Film Festival will be like in a few years.

The Taliban’s Ministry of Information and Culture recently held the third short film festival with “cultural and jihadi” themes in Kabul.

With all due respect to the Taliban, there cannot be a bigger bomb than
“Joker 2: Folie a Deux”!
It will go down as one of the worst cinematic flops in movie history!

Since they can’t depict “living” things, all of the ones photographed must be dead. In keeping with islam’s lust for death.
The pakistani madrassa teacher who tried to break my television so I couldn’t watch it any more, said all television and movies are bad. There is no logic, no harmony, nor virtue in islam, so its adherents display the same lack.

I’m sure Ed Wood would be proud.

I know that logic is haram in islam, but that doesn’t stop me from wondering: if pictures are the work of Satan, how are movies, which is displaying several pictures (frames) per second in rapid succession, not Satan on steroids?
Can some imam at al Azhar or Mecca or Deoband pass a fatwa against them for this unislamic act?
Gurek says
Even if it’s haram, the islamic clerics make exceptions for movies that glorify violent jihad. And in the doctrine of jihad, there are no harams. To put it in another way, they can claim that islam preaches peace in order to save their ham arses.
