not my type of mive...being an athiest and all.....but its intersting watching mel gibson discard all the controversy as if it were nothing. Although the movie may not interest me much, reprocussions of such events are always fun to watch

Re: The Passion of Jesus Christ
 

I can see a bunch of avid chuch goers getting into the movie, and then a bunch of the old ladies screaming and crying as they beat christ. "Oh my god, I'm so sorry for all that has been done to you Jesus!"

Um yeah count me out of that environment.

Re: The Passion of Jesus Christ
 

Although Mel Gibson is quite possibly my favorite Actor ever, I dont think I will watch this. Its not my type of movie, and I consider myself a Christain. Its just not something I like to watch.

After it has been out for a while, and they show it on cable, THEN I will probably watch it. But Im not going to pay money to see it.

Re: The Passion of Jesus Christ
 

lol, ya there will probably be many old women holding their rosaries, lol.

But He had to go through all the beatings, then death. I mean, he did die for us after all.

Re: The Passion of Jesus Christ
 

I think it's too graphic for me. :unsure:

Re: The Passion of Jesus Christ
 

I'm seeing this for sure but I'm not looking forward to reading the subtitles :-o

Re: The Passion of Jesus Christ
 

I believe the movie is in English, isn't it? :confused:

Re: The Passion of Jesus Christ
 

1. Its in Latin
2. There's no subtitles (I don't think).

There story is well known enough that there shouldn't be any problem understanding it, I wouldn't think.


*shrugs and walks away*

Re: The Passion of Jesus Christ
 

****, I think anyone who has read the bible would know that every passage is messed up. In the first few pages it describes one of the first man's penis being circumcized with a rock picked up off the ground, and it describes how animals are burned to a crisp in holy sacrifice. A father even sacrifices his eldest son, just for God.

I think the only people who are complaining and arguing about it will be the ones who have never studied the bible, or gone to church.

Re: The Passion of Jesus Christ
 

Do you know how oral stories can be changed over time?

Example (and no, it doesn't have to make sense):

"Dyne is a cool guy"
"Dyne is a school fry"
"Dyne is a school bus"
"Dyne is a yellow bus"
"Dyne is a yellowjacket"
"Dyne is a hornet"
"Dyne is horny"
"Dyne is a rapist"
"Dyne is no longer allowed to babysit my children"

It really changes a lot.

Re: The Passion of Jesus Christ
 

That's right, because we all know Jesus Christ was just slapped on the wrist. "Oh, woe is me."

I really doubt they had to exaggerate anything. We're less of Caveman than we were back then, and look how violent we still can be.

Re: The Passion of Jesus Christ
 

1. The Romans speak Latin, but a bastardized "street" version, and the locals speak Aramaic
2. There are subtitles, I saw them in the trailer. Besides, it would be pretty stupid to make a movie in two dead languages that 99.999% of the world don't understand.

Re: The Passion of Jesus Christ
 

Didnt they also make it in Hebrew?

Re: The Passion of Jesus Christ
 

I've been to catholic schools...CCD...and I still have no desire to see this... partly due to the fact I'm a catholicism survivor... and don't really believe much of the bible

Re: The Passion of Jesus Christ
 

Your comprehension level is sub-par. But, that's ok in some places.
