Hercules

This is about the cartoon that came out:

I like watching movies like this and Percy Jackson and the Sea of Monsters and Clash of the titans because they make me think of God, how He is truly all powerful and in complete control and these Greek gods aren't, are weak in comparison.

In Hercules, as a baby he is stolen out of heaven while his father Zeus sleeps.  This is completely different from Jesus who left heaven of his own accord (check this) and died of his own accord (verse).

Reminds me of Jesus when Hercules is with his earthly father when he is 18 at the market.  He knocks the whole market thing down (which is way bigger than what a tiny town seems like it would create) because of his strength.  He is then told to leave because he's too dangerous to be around normal people.  It was interesting as all the towns people pointed fingers I thought about Jesus because he himself said that a profit is never honored in his hometown.  It's not completely the same, but similar.
