Kirk Cameron: Coffee Flogger

http://www.kirkscoffee.com/coffee/saving-christmas-blend

As for his “Saving Christmas” movie that these beans are advertizing… it’s a stinker: http://www.orlandosentinel.com/features/the-list/os-saving-christmas-worst-movie-imdb-history-post.html

RottenTomatoes.com has an entertaining list of reviews. :cool:

Don’t quit yer day job, Kirk.

…oh, wait… :rolleyes:

You’re didn’t answer the real question: how good is the coffee?

Actually, when I saw the ad, I was expecting the coffee would be decaf but it seems to be regular full-powered joe. Perhaps maybe that’s where his future lies.

What’s with Cameron’s head? It’s sort of like he has a receding hairline, except instead of his forehead growing up towards the top of his head displacing his hair, its like its growing down and squeezing his facial features down into the bottom of his face.

The headshot for the coffee logo seems bizarrely chosen to renforce this impression.

Dunno - maybe after a sip you’ll do a spit-take and choke out “Jesus Christ, that’s shitty coffee!” :eek:

From another message board:

The movie just hit #1…in the IMDB bottom 100 movies of all time.

I have no idea who Kirk Cameron is and don’t know any project he has ever been involved in. I am perfectly happy to remain this ill informed and will thus never return to this thread.

I miss Andrew Koenig.

“Boner” Stabone. One of the funniest conversations on that show went like this:
Mike: Your real name is “Sylvester Stabone”?
Boner: Who knew?

Dude, no. Just…no. I hope the profit is going to some kind of charity or something, not to a business and its owners. That’s weird, dude.

I haven’t seen the movie, but I’ve watched vlog reviews, and it seems that a significant part of Cameron’s messages is that everything about Christmas, including the commercialization, is 100% Christian with no external influence at all.

For materialism, he says that we give material gifts to represent Christ having a material body.

So I wouldn’t put it past him to think capitalism is what Christmas is all about.

At long last I can enjoy goods harvested by Borneo 8 year olds for $1/day and not have to have 5% of my purchase go to starving kids in America or some other Starbucks liberal bullshit. Kirk is bringing us the finest in intelligently-designed beans to go with my morning banana.

So Kirk told his fans to stuff the Rotten Tomatoes fan ballot, not realizing that his website isn’t private and doesn’t scan visitors for the Mark of the Beast and only let in True Christians™. His movie quickly became highly rated by fans… and then quickly ended up probably lower than he would’ve started. But God wanted him to encourage morally suspect but not illegal behavior.

Speaking as a Christian… I haven’t seen the movie, and am quite prepared to believe that it’s terrible.

But do you REALLY think anyone voting for it as the worst movie of all time has actually seen it? It’s not playing in many theaters. It’s hard to find and hard to see. Hence, anyone who HAS seen it has made a lot of effort to see it. That suggests only a small number of die-hard Christians have actually seen the movie. It has a self-selected audience that’s inclined to LIKE it.

Which suggests to me that the people voting it the worst movie ever are secular/atheist wiseacres who’ve never seen it.

Sure it’s like Vote For The Worst used to be on American Idol.

Except this time it’s working. :smiley:

The absolute number of reviews is pretty small (5,000 vs 10,000 for the second worst movie and 50,000 for the third). So I don’t think there’s too much of that, though I’m sure there’s some.

The written reviews on IMBD seem to have a decent number of Christians disappointed by the materialistic message (or just saying it wasn’t very good) along with people who went with their kids not knowing what they were getting into, atheists who just went to make fun of it as well as some people who probably didn’t see it and just don’t like Cameron very much, as you say.

I’m sure the film would have been very low rated without the help of anyone rating it without seeing it. However, this is something Cameron posted:

If he had just asked fans to see the film and rated it highly, that would be one thing. But when he accuses people of being haters and trying to ruin the film because of their spirit of hate, he’s basically asking for a backlash, and calling for people to rate his film very low.

Not that I could find on the website. Just charging you up the wazoo for a Christmas message and Kirk keeps all the cash.

Yeah, surely Jesus would approve. :rolleyes:

The worst thing about Kirk is that I think he absolutely believes his unpopularity is because he’s a Christian and not at all due to the fact he’s a narcissistic douchenozzle with the IQ of an enticingly curved banana.

This link reports that Kirk Cameron’s Saving Christmas averaged just two viewers per showing this weekend.

As a Christian, I am deeply depressed by this entire thing. He’s always been a goofball, but his whole thing is getting worse and worse.

Put this all up there with the Joel Osteen for-profit scammers, folks. It’s not real and shouldn’t be taken seriously. I don’t mind Kirk Cameron having a coffee business…but the whole “put the Christ back in Christmas” thing going with it is just creepy and odd.
