I am sure they are also hoping for similiar box office results , as &#8220;FIreproof&#8221; was the most successful  truly independent movie of the year.Now longtime Idol Chatter readers know I have mixed feelings about this latest sub-genre of films &#8211; what some like to call &#8220;Godsploitation&#8221; movies- but check out the trailer for yourself.<object width=\"640\"
