The passion of the christ

[crapmaster4000]

What do you guys feel about Mel Gibson's new movie coming out on ash wednesday? I hear its supposed to be about the last 12 hours of Jesus before his death and I also hear its extremely gruesome. Its been extremely hyped up and im just wondering what you guys have to say about it?

looks good. as long as people remember that it's his rendition of his beliefs and not what we should believe as true- it should be a good movie. i'm gonna go see it! dunno how the aramaic and latin with subtitles will work with my mind, but it'll deff. be interesting.

this line was never here

Apparently someone involved with it was struck by lightning during the making of it. Twice.

Still wondering if I'll go see it. I'll read some reviews, and see what other learned religious people say about it. Not sure how I feel about it as a Christian just yet...

*edit* Aramaic etc without subtitles should be something interesting.

I'll probably give it a look.

Mel's more serious roles have always been great at the box office, Braveheart, Signs, The Patriot.

[oldbluecelica]

I want to see it

[YogsVR4]

Its a movie like any other. People acting out whatever scene was written for them by whatever the writers, directors and producers believe will make them money. Weather its accurate or not isn't really their highest consideration.

It'll get some peoples hackles in an uproar. It'll be the "Last Temptation of Christ" style whining by someone.

the person playing jesus was struck by lighting, and so was the assident director. kina makes you wonder huh...

Seein' it the day it comes out after school. Since I got early dismissal, be there like early afternoon. I've been waiting awhile for it.....

[crapmaster4000]

I think it looks really good, I hear that Mel Gibson spent $25 Million of his own money to put this on. I think im going to go see it when it comes out that wednesday.

yea pretty crazy how the actor playing jesus got struck by lightning. They had to figure out how to finish the movie, so they just used mel gibson in the crucifixion scene. i may see it

[okie-chevy-man]

seems like god is picking the characters

[DGB454]

Seems llike I read somewhere that the church officially backed it. What church I don't know but I remember that Gibson gave a bunch of them a private screening.

I think its great the mel gibson spent all that money on a film just to bring ppl to she what it was like, to see the truth

[crayzayjay]

The guy struck by lightning was holding an umbrella on top of a hill in a storm, i mean come on, lets not read too much into this...

Good to see everyone's being rational in here
