Default Superman as Joseph Smith

Angelina Jolie's dad as Brigham Young, and Uncle Rico as John D. Lee. I wonder how much play this movie is going to get. The trailer looks like it's a direct attack on Brother Brigham. A quote:
"Who ordered the massacre and why has been hidden in a cloak of secrecy and conspiracy, and the reputation of one of the nation’s mightiest religious leaders has been preserved and protected…until now.”

This one's been on the burner for a couple of years. I remember hearing about it quite a while ago.

I saw the preview about a month ago and burst out laughing.

I wrote a paper my freshmen year at Ricks on Mountain Meadows. Juanita Brooks book is a pretty good resource all in all. Of course, the history of the incident begs the question..."Did Brigham Young order the code red?" Which, we never will really know, but I'm sure this movie will try to tell us and viewers will largley ignore the "this movie is mostly based on events that actually happend" paragraph at the beginning.
