Passion of the Christ

[Joe]

I just bought it from Walmart. Kinda funny, they asked me for my ID, even though I'm clearly not 18. Or.. is it not that clear? Oh well. Anyhow, I went and got my dad, and he came over, and they wouldn't accept the money from me (I had to hand it off to my dad first, weird), but thats beside the point.

This movie was pretty good, but it's almost more of a horror film then a gospel film. It was pretty gruesome, especially SPOILER WARNING when they started whipping him with the glass pieces, and then jabbed the crown of thorns on his head. Regardless, it was a pretty powerful portrayal (say that five times fast) of how much he suffered for us, though, so it was still good. =)

WOW YOU'RE LATE. Anyhow it was more like "the beating of christ" than any passion.

I saw about five minutes of it in Church, the whipping scene, but we stopped shortly after Natasha ended up in a ball on the floor crying.

Here's a spoiler for you, JESUS FUCKING DIES.

And is resurrected looking like he was never hit once, except that he has holes (which aren't bleeding) in his hands still.

Joe, honstally, who doesn't know what happened in the story of christ? I don't think any "Spoiler warnings" are needed..

It is quite dumb how churches took people to see this movie, but won't do it for like, House of 1000 corpses, or Hostel.

They are all the same.

No, not at all.  This is a very accurate reenactment of the crucifixion of Jesus Christ, which is an actual, documented, historical event.  It's not one that is arguably make-believe like most of the ones in the Old Testament.  Hostel and House of 1000 Corpses are made to be gruesome to gross people out, not to tell a story.

Rats! I wanted to piss off Joe!! :'(

I heard some christans say that Dinosaurs arn't real, because they arn't in the bible, With that mantality, I can say since Jesus' story wasn't in Fight Club, (LotR, in Joe's case.) it didn't happen. :)

[Newby]

IIRC Hostel was real. Kids in my P.E. class were talking about how this was based off some event(s) that took place in Russia/Amsterdam or something.

[Joe]

Heh, if I thought LotR actually happened, would I have taken time out of my life to learn Noldorin and Khazdul?
