Roland Emmerich, the movie director most famous for featuring important landmarks in his work - and then blowing them up - has decided to censor himself for fear of fatwa. Hmmm. F.O.F. i like that. A4I just coined a new term - Fear of Fatwa.
Anyway, Roland's F.O.F. stems from a scene in 2012 where he originally planned to blow up the Kaaba, the epicenter of Islamic prayer. Worried over the reaction to such a scene, he chose, instead, to blow up symbols he must consider less important...like the Sistine Chapel and St. Peter's Basilica in the Vatican.
Note to Christians - start issuing Fatwas or all the movie directors are going to be blowing your stuff up!
