It even mentions AMOK though spelled wrong. This is Chuck Jones at his best.

I present Duck Amuck for no other reason than just to make you laugh, ’cause sometimes you need to.

I was going through my email and found a note from the president of Grace Hill Media. This project is so what AMOKArts is all about. I had to pass it along.

“Dear Grace Hill Media Community -
As I look back over the last twelve years, I marvel at where the relationship between Christianity and Hollywood was, and where it is today. From near pariah status, Christians are now a burgeoning part of the Entertainment Industry – it’s nothing short of miraculous! But over the last year, I’ve personally wrestled the reality that, despite our gains, there remains a big chasm of mistrust between the Christian Community and the Hollywood Community. How can that be healed?
Over Memorial Weekend, I was at a retreat and heard Erwin McManus speak. (If you ever get a chance to hear him – he’s remarkable!) The comment he made that really hit home with me was, “If you desire the world to be a better place, you will imagine ways to do it.” Erwin is so right! Christians must be change agents in creating a better world. Which brings us to today.
We have launched a new non-profit organization called As1. Watch this video to find out more:

I guess you could say As1 is about making Christian projects huge hits. But as I’m sure you’d agree, that’s much too small a vision – hence the restoration of the church as Patrons of the Arts, who seek not only a renewed relationship with the creators of culture, but to develop equally talented Christians to join their ranks. For those of you who have traveled in Europe, you know there was a clear time in history where the Church and Artists worked together to create great art. I don’t see any reason why we can’t get back to a relationship like that again.
If you want to check out the website, it’s a simple URL: www.As1.org. You can also Facebook friend us at http://www.facebook.com/WeAreAs1. It’s my hope that you’ll lend your support to this effort to change Hollywood forever. You’ll be hearing a lot more about it in the coming months. In my opinion, this is the bright future Christians have been longing for with Hollywood.
As1 – Unite For Good.
Warmest regards,
Jonathan Bock
Founder of As1
President of Grace Hill Media”
