‘Sound Of Freedom’ Tops $10M in Box Office PreSales | Eastern North Carolina Now

    "Sound of Freedom" has "topped the $10 million" mark in presales at the box office just two days ahead of the release of the movie-in theaters in the United States and Canada-that deals with the horrors of human trafficking.

    In a press release from Angel Studios, the company responsible for the popular faith-based television series "The Chosen," Jared Geesey, SVP of Global Distribution for the studio thanked fans who he said continue to support Christian projects.

    "Time and again, Angel fans have proven that they'll support films that are entertaining and inspiring, and 'SOUND OF FREEDOM' is no exception," Geesey said.

    "Industry experts are telling us this surge in presales is stunning the whole industry, but we believe the Angels marshaling their resources for this film aim for it to stun people outside of our industry, to wake audiences all over the globe to the plight of these children," he added.

    "We are now closer to our goal of selling two million tickets this opening week to symbolize the two million children who are trapped in the horrors of trafficking each year," Geesey concluded, noting the studio's goal of getting "2 million people into theaters opening week to remember the 2 million children who are trafficked each year."

    In the highly-anticipated movie, actor Jim Caviezel portrays Tim Ballard in the true story of a federal agent who quits his job and embarks on a dangerous mission to rescue a young girl from sex slavery in South America.

    Caviezel recently discussed how his new movie is a "rejection of what they are doing to our Christian culture right now" as he slammed the "Christian bigotry" he said is happening around the world.

    During the 54-year-old's appearance on the Christian podcast "Prophets and Patriots," "Christian bigotry is the most accepted form of bigotry, right now, in the world," Caviezel told the host. "And they are okay with that. Well, not anymore. That's done."

    The "Passion of the Christ" star also revealed recently that Disney wanted him to remove the mention of "God" from the script of his 2002 movie "The Count of Monte Cristo."

    Caviezel-who played Edmond Dantes in the adaptation of Alexandre Dumas' novel-said he pushed back and Disney backed off.

    "They wanted me to remove 'God' from all the script. True story ... what happened to God? 'God will give me justice,'" he said. "I had to say, no, I can't do this.'"

    "Disney said, 'oh, so you're one of those?' I said, 'one of those what? One of those who re-write Alexandre Dumas? One of those who re-write Shakespeare?'" he added. "Because that's essentially what you did. So I held my ground and by God they backed off."

    "Sound of Freedom" hits theaters on July 4, 2023.

It has been far too many years since the Woke theology interlaced its canons within the fabric of the Indoctrination Realm, so it is nigh time to ask: Does this Representative Republic continue, as a functioning society of a self-governed people, by contending with the unusual, self absorbed dictates of the Woke, and their vast array of Victimhood scenarios?
  Yes, the Religion of Woke must continue; there are so many groups of underprivileged, underserved, a direct result of unrelenting Inequity; they deserve everything.
  No; the Woke fools must be toppled from their self-anointed pedestal; a functioning society of a good Constitutional people cannot withstand this level of "existential" favoritism as it exists now.
  I just observe; with this thoughtful observation: What will happen "when the Vikings are breeching our walls;" how do the Woke react?

Understanding that this fragile Republic of the self-governed is in a precarious space in our nation's vast history: What is your honor bound patriotic duty in helping to sustain the continuance of these United States of America?
  I will depend on my Democratic Socialist politicians to continue to march hard toward the Left to provide Diversity, Equity and Inclusion for all who think and do as they are told.
  I will defend the Constitution of the United States of America, and support all elected leaders who pledge to protect and insure the continued sovereignty of this Representative Republic.
  I am very concerned about maintaining my current life style without working. I was told that as long as I vote Democrat, I had nothing to worry about ... but now I worry.
