    They already have that on VHS. Its got Kirk Cameron in it, and they've got a few of them out already. The movie series has been going since 2000.

    Noah and the Ark could be pretty wild in the right hands. :)

    I was thinking the story of Joseph or perhaps, how about the tale of David?

    I figure Pentecost could have some cool special effects.

    ABC is gonna have a movie about Judas on Monday March 8th, using modern day vernacular I believe.

    Judas is played by the gorgeous Jonathan Schaech, husband of Christina Applegate

    They ought to make a "Teen Jesus" movie. You know, show us what happened between Christ's birth and his adult life.

    It could be like Smallville.

    I too would like to see a movie be done about the Revelation. and I've seen the Left Behind movie but it didn't go as deep into the Rapture and the 7 years of Tribulation.

    If you really want lots of drama, go to the other end of the Bible and make some movies out of Genesis. There are all sorts of stories in there. Of course, they would probably be R-rated or NC-17...

    or you could do Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor... never mind, been covered plenty of times. :) (I'm sure there's some sort of movie about that story as well.)

    more (serious) answers: Esther. King David (not just Bathsheba; also the political and military drama, and when he was hiding out from Saul and his men and being chased all over the place). Ruth. Or a story about the friendships and common experiences of the twelve disciples.

    How about the story of Absalom?

    Absalom's father was king David, and he had a sister named Tamar. Absalom wasn't heir to the throne, though. His half brother, Amnon was (being firstborn). Amnon had the hots for his half-sister, Tamar (Absalom's sister). Since Amnon was heir, he figured he could do whatever he wanted. So he raped her and then kicked her out. Absalom didn't care if Amnon was heir and he swore revenge on and killed Amnon. King David was furious at the loss of his heir. Absalom got mad at David for siding with Amnon, so Absalom swore vengeance against King David as well. He eventually did some sneaky stuff to steal the throne away from the king, sending David fleeing. But Absalom's vengeance consumed him, and he made an unwise decision to attack David and his men. Absalom lost and was killed, and David returned to the throne. Very 'Moby Dick'ish.
    -- (From 2 Samuel 13)


    Or maybe you could tell the story of Noah AFTER the whole "flooding of the world" incident:

    Noah was in his tent drunk and sleeping naked. One of his sons came in and saw that Noah was naked. He went to his two brothers and said, "Hey dad's in the tent naked and passed out!" The other two sons went into the tent and the youngest son covered up Noah. When Noah woke, he was seriously PO'ed at the youngest sone. He cursed him and his heirs and disowned him. The end. (weird story, huh? I gues Noah was a hardcore nudist)
    -- (from Genesis 9)
