Film: The Devils Advocate
If there had to be a Satan that Hollywood has portrayed that would accurately describe the clever Nietzschian mentality that the Devil has, then "The Devils Advocate" makes me want to worship Satan and cheer for him as he releases plague upon plague of vice and vanity upon the world.
If you have the patience for longer movies and have the capability of thinking hard, intellectually or morally, about just what a films message is trying to convey, then The Devils Advocate is great because your left sitting there in all of its great cinematography, brilliant acting by Al Pacino and subtle plot intricusies and actually have a moral (or lack thereof) to it.
The basic idea is ... "God? Let me give you a little information about God. He's a prankster. What does he give man? Instinct! And I swear for his own amuesment, his own personal gag reel, he sets an opposition. Look, but don't touch. Touch, but don't taste. Taste! Don't swallow! Haha! And when you're jumping around from one foot to the next he's up there laughing his sick fucking ass off! He's a sadist! He's a tight ass! He's an absantee landlord! Worship that?! Never!" -- John Milton
If you can reign in Hell then serve in Heaven, why not? The basic pleasure principles ride in the rails of our loins and evolution while some groups out there don't want you to jerk off, because God is watching. What this is trying to say is that hedonism never felt so good, and blasphemy never felt so right. Excellently directed and superb in it's execution, I now devote my life to Satan. Vanity is definately one of my favorite sins.
