"The Passion"

EZweasel · 02-23-2004, 04:56 PM

any of you doo-dads gona see this movie?

Mondo J. Gecko · 02-23-2004, 05:00 PM

probably... it looks very graphic though... I just wanna see what all the fuss is about....

Demonfox38 · 02-23-2004, 05:00 PM

I dunno. Probably not in theaters, but I might give it a rent.

I can't even begin to describe how I feel about this movie . . .perhaps the best term I can give for it is "weirded-out". It's kind of creepy to see the portrayal of Jesus's death, but probably not much more that seeing soldiers getting gunned down in Saving Private Ryan.

This movie has a lot of controversy surrounding it already. I have a feeling that this thread may turn into a religion flame war.

I have a feeling you're right.

thats why i think its best we discus the movie... not what we believe.

*The Defibrillator* · 02-23-2004, 05:07 PM

I'll see it when it comes out on DVD.

*Stone Ill* · 02-23-2004, 05:14 PM

I've never even heard about this. I'll check it out when it comes out on DVD.

I've never even heard of the movie. I must really live under a rock.

*damnhooligan* · 02-23-2004, 05:27 PM

There's not much buzz about this movie out here, but it may be worth a look if I've got a free night and $7.50 that I cannot think to put to better use.

Though on the bright side, the last movie Mel Gibson directed was Braveheart. That alone may make the movie worth a peek.

*Voltron* · 02-23-2004, 06:35 PM

I tend to go for more realistic, historically based movies. So I'll stick to Jesus Christ SuperStar, thank you.

No, seriously. I will definately see this movie, but I'm not really sure what to expect.

Gremlin · 02-23-2004, 06:47 PM

I'll see, it will take a couple of lightyears for the movie to get here, as every other movie too (stupid country). If the reviewers manage to actually review the movie instead of discussing it's religious content, and they end up liking it, I might give it a rent (not too fond of too religious/political movies)

*Taloniss* · 02-23-2004, 07:10 PM

Not interested.

I'll keep an eye on this, and if someone comes on and starts trouble, I'll take care of it..

愛 · 02-23-2004, 07:38 PM

OH! Now I heard of this movie. Yeah, I'll definitely see it.

You better be interested. This movie portrays Our Lord & Savior, Jesus.
If it wasn't for him dying for us, we would not have a chance to live in Heaven with him forever.

While I don't have any problems with your beliefs, your statement is lined with controversy and has a lot of flam war potential. So I'm gonna ask for you to resist making such posts.

Its happened several times in the past: religous discussion on these forums ussually turns for the worse, so we try to discourage anything which might cause some angry debating.

*Raven* · 02-23-2004, 09:43 PM

ya im gonna see this , because of my beliefs

raphael90 · 02-23-2004, 09:48 PM

I'm debating whether or not to see it...

Ditto here.

The movie I'm saving up MY money for, though, would have to be Hugh Jackman's new movie: "Van Helsing"!!!
