Henry Dorsett Case Dragon_Witch_Woman According to the extras on the DVD (yes, I admit I like, and own the movie xd ) They did lots of research of Wiccan magic before they made the movie, and, one of the lead chars, the woman who plays Nancy is a practicing Wiccan. Rather like Madonna is a Kabbalist, then. ~glances at her Kabalah water and "red string"~ Oh darn! I've been had!

Fairuza Balk is SOOOO superduper Wiccan that she immediately went out and bought the Panpipes occult store in LA to prove it! I think she still owns it? Not sure.
Yeah, the COG chick who consulted for them had this whole dippy paragraph about how (insert flaky voice here) during shooting, one of the beautiful young wymmyn approached her and asked to be brooought into the loving aaaarms of the gaaawdeeeeessss, or some silly phrasing like that.

About the only positive thing I think Rav Berg has done is make an English version of the Zohar available online - and that's only in the context of research. Some people don't understand the difference between "studying the Zohar" and "being a Kabbalist".

Call me crazy but i found "The Craft" to be beautiful and inspiring. Granted i was all of 9 years old at the time, being raised by a Roman Catholic hippie (i know it confuses me too) and looking for something that wasn't completely stupid to believe in (because as far as i was concerned catholicism was a huge joke, and i was only 9 so you add that up...)
And from my first Bewitched episode, something inside me sung at the words witch, and magic. And my mother would often tell me stories of me knowing or doing things that by rights i shouldn't have known or been able to to, that she admitted freaked her out so she beat it out of me. which really sucks, because by the time i was five i could give you exactly 20 minuets warning to a thunderstorm by watching the sky, I could tell when people i knew were hurt or hurting with out being near them, and i saw "little people" there were fairies in the wall paper, elves in the wood paneling, and gnomes in the wildflower garden in the back yard. none of which is actual "magic" in neither the Hollywood sense of the word nor the definition as we know it today but it gave me a strong sense of my internal instincts that every animal has when a storm rolls in, an excellent emotional connection with my loved ones, and the vivid sense of imagination that makes me the Fiction writer that i am today. Which i think in it's self is it's own form of magick.
Can any of you that weren't raised by pagans honestly say that Hollywood in some manner didn't help shape your desire to become pagan?
I can tell you in all honesty that it was "Scooby Doo and The Witch's Ghost" that made me study wicca.
Every one was fluffy at one point.

~Points~ Crazy!
Quote: but i found "The Craft" to be beautiful and inspiring. I find a lot of things beautiful and inspiring. Doesn't make them good unto themselves.
Quote: Which i think in it's self is it's own form of magick. Spelled magic.
Quote: Can any of you that weren't raised by pagans honestly say that Hollywood in some manner didn't help shape your desire to become pagan? Yep.
Quote: Every one was fluffy at one point. Not completely true. Being ignorant is not the same as being willfully ignorant.

1. that was my opinion on the movie, you don't have to share it i don't care.
2. i like 'K's leave me alone. The word is still pronounced the same so i can spell it whoever i want.
3. If Hollywood didn't "help shape your desire to become pagan" what did?
4. I didn't realize you defined "Fluffy" as people who were "willfully ignorant" I assumed that it would be defined here the same way it's defined every where else as generally a 'noob' pagan, with the occasional 35-40 year old who believes him self to be either Vampire or Slayer, (which i believe is brought on by too much Joss Whedon and or Eric Kripke in already emotionally unstable people but that's another topic)
