Looking forward to seeing this movie despite the bad reviews. Maybe it will be a Waterworld kind of film.
In other news, two seals were discovered bearing the names Menachem and Shaul (Saul), Both in Jerusalem. All this proves is that those names were common in the 8th century BCE, it does not confirm the existence of Saul or Menachem. However only prominent men with those names would have had seals, so it could be them, but without some kind of declarative statement like, "I Saul, king of Israel..." there is simply no way to know.
here are the stories:
