John Wick 4 Runtime Makes It The Longest John Wick Ever — And That's a Good Thing

The first John Wick was a perfectly plotted movie that came in at a tight 1 hour and 36 minutes, a rarity in today’s increasingly overlong blockbuster landscape. But as the world of Wick expanded, so did its runtimes: Chapter 2 clocked in at 2 hours, 2 minutes, and Chapter 3 was a hefty 2 hours, 11 minutes. Now the recently-released Chapter 4 comes in at the longest of them all: a whopping 2 hours and 49 minutes. Who would want to spend nearly three hours watching Keanu Reeves’ assassin ma...

Celebrating an 11th Anniversary

Four score and seven years ago (less seventy-six years) I started this blog. That makes this Once Upon a Screen’s eleventh anniversary. Who’d ‘a thunk it? While an anniversary is cause for celebration, I admit to feeling a bit guilty this year given I have barely blogged. It has been a tough one, but I am happy Once Upon a Screen is still here for me to movie vent. As is tradition on this blog, I celebrate anniversaries with tributes to the number. Let’s look at the ...

Jubilee in the Book of Revelation

One of the challenges in reading the Book of Revelation is that it is very theologically dense in the way it presents its ideas. There are several reasons for this:Its dense metaphorical language (commonly called its ‘symbolism’) carries theological weight. For example, the compressed phrase ‘a lamb, looking as though it had been slain, standing…’ (Rev 5.6) is only four words in Greek ἀρνίον ἑστηκὸς ὡς ἐσφαγμένον yet it encapsulates the idea of Jesus as crucified and risen, conquering ...

Tafsir Talk 1: The Nature Of The Quran and Its Levels of Tafsir | Perspectives Of A Fellow Traveler

Tafsir Talk 1: The Nature Of The Quran and Its Levels of Tafsir 1 Reply It is said that if you want to talk to God, then you should pray, but if you want God to talk to you then you should read the Quran. As Muslims we believe that the Quran is the verbatim speech of God. With that being the case, it only makes sense that if we want a message from God, that one should turn to the Quran. If the Quran is God’s speech then how should we interpret what He is say...

history - In Deuteronomy 4:13 why were the Ten Commandments written on two tablets? - Biblical Hermeneutics Stack Exchange

In Deuteronomy 4:13 why were the Ten Commandments written on two tablets? Dr. Meshulam Margaliot points out that Midrashic tradition is divided about what was written on which tablet. The options seem to be: 1–5 on one and 6–10 on the other. (This is the tradition interpretation that is most common in art and synagogue decoration.) All 10 on each tablet. Even numbered on one and odd on the other (as suggested by Mike Bull), does not seem to be a Jewish interpretation represented in the ...

The good, the bad, and the misshelved | Library call numbers in the movies

If you’re a regular reader (thank you!), then you’ll be aware that I often mention call numbers in my posts about reel librarians, as books and their call numbers often serve as props and clues to movie plot points. When I spy a call number onscreen, I always look it up to see if it’s accurate, as call numbers can reveal many things. And when movies get it wrong, I have been known to go on a rant… or two… What’s a call number? Before I get into any rants, however, let’s m...
