Movies with theological plots

C'mon. There's only one answer to this question.Raiders of the Lost Ark. Close the topic, discussion over.

What I didn't like about Constantine, and about theo-gothic-action movies in general, is this trend nowadays where they oh-so-casually toss off the fact that the Nazis had the Spear of Longinus (Spear of Destiny, Longinus Lance, etc) during WWII, like it's some winking nod to the continuity of a series they've already butchered.It's like geek fan service, and it's getting old. Time to retire this macguffin.

You misunderstood. I like battling occult-obsessed Nazi's just fine, and the Indiana Jones movies are the finest example of that.What I don't like is when that occult-Nazi background is exploited in movies that aren't about Nazis, just for the sake of fan service.I mean, the point is to set their treasure-protecting organizations into a historical context, to say "we've been doing this a while; here, look at our museum. Oh, by the way, we recovered the Spear of Longinus from Hitler and won WWII."It's old. It's time that somebody came up with some new fake occult history. Hitler and the Spear have been done to death. Same with the Holy Grail. How about the Shroud of Turin? That would be new. Or the Hope Diamond? It's cursed, you know.

Hrm, that's a good point. Nonetheless I'd like to see some occult conspiracy movies that drew their macguffins from sources other than Nazis and the Catholic church. You know, I hate that too.
