Yeah, right, you think Mel Gibson cares. Mel Gibson adds emotion in the movie for the religious. On the contrary mistakes are done on purpose I would say, to deliver blows to christians and jews, necessary for attracting in some ways their attention.
Jews complain and with this they create a hype that attracts a really big audience: the audience of jews and those that are bothered by religious relations of today (which will go to the movie because of the hype) that today could mean almost all of us that can go to the movies.

Marketing hype.
Why not? Have you ever seen those iron spikes on top of some houses on the hills?Sparnage said:
He is a businessman. If he was a true christian he would be too humble to make a film of his god.Sparnage said:
Marketing is about getting their attention to attract them to the theatres. Marketing is about temptation. Didn't Adam bite that apple?Sparnage said:

Why not? Have you ever heard of Saint Elmo's fire? It looks like lightning but it usually doesn't hurt the person. I think that's what actually happened here, and it's not such a rare phenomenon, especially when you're standing on the top of a hill with an umbrella in the middle of a thunderstorm. ::)

Then it is very possible that he was struck by lightning i suppose.

Yup, several centurys of arresting and murdering countless amount of people for petty reasons of not agreeing with them or whatever, now can only draw people to the church by saying "all you need to do is accept jesus as your saviour and you will go to heaven" to lazy pantheists and still claim to be worthy of being a religion (not that im religious).

Xechnao's ability to make assumptions from an obscure perspective is not unheard of.

Please, do tell. I am really curious as to what your knowledge of Christian Philosophy is.
Like I said before, I only have a limited knowledge of Christian philosophy as well. I do know, however, that many people practice their religion in different ways. Just because a person does not follow the Bible to the word, they could still possibly be "true Christians." If your definition of a "true Christian" is a person who follows the Bible completely without ever doing something it says not to do, then I have some shocking news for you... I don't think there is a single person in this world who is a "true Christian." All Im really trying to say is that people practice their religions in the ways that they feel is best, and, unless it is against the law in some way, it is not up to you nor I to decide whether their methods are right are wrong.

I started on here when I was like 14...
nice how you make fun of atheists with closed minds when you obviously are a religious man closed to any possibilities. People like you cause alot to convert to atheist, such arrogance as that just shows us that all christians are thayt close minded and arrogant. do yourself a favor, stay away from urbanized areas.10-4 said:
but anyway, no i am not at all religious, but I do plan to see this movie. It probably will not change my views since im agnostic for...well asswipes such as 10-4. However I have a small intrest in this movie, not as a religious thing but more of as a person watching, not "im agnostic so i hate this movie", or "i'm catholic (WHICH IM NOT!) this movie speaks the one and only truth". I'll get to this after i see it.
but wait if he never died how would he have been our savior? he DIED for our sins if you believe the bible...if he never died then he wouldnt be a savior. cristians should be thannking the jews....ok...not really but ya know what i mean.Starscream said:

Well seeing a majority of people that will be interested in watching it would be christians i couldnt see how it would make the movie look good in any way. If it was a publicity stunt it was the worst one i have heard of for a while, if it was real then you would think Mel would be hush hush about it.

Subtitles and languages
It was a good movie whatever the subject material was. Mel Gibson made it very realistic. There wasn't anything funny or even remotely upbeat about it...for obvious reasons. It was a very grim, gritty, dark story in many ways. I almost wanted to say, " Die already, damn it, die!" because of the cruelty of the punishment Christ was enduring.
What made the movie good also was the fact that there were no stupid 'fake accents' or bad accents ( English accents, etc) it was all done in Hebrew and Latin, which made it seem all the more authentic. With subtitles of course.

That's right. I had almost forgotten about that myself. The water turns to wine, which in turn is Christ's blood.
You have to admit it's a weird concept. Imagine trying to convert the first few people to Christianity. " Hey you have to eat the flesh and blood of this guy."
Re:Subtitles and languages
Lol, now I feel bad because it is so obvious that Lady Charlotte just wants to talk about the movie itself, and all we are doing is talking about religion =D Well, to be on-topic, I am going to try to see the movie tomorrow with Windeline and my family.

Re:Subtitles and languages
Gah!... You were going to tell me this when? ;)
Truthfully speaking I'm not sure if I want to see it or not. I've thought about just buying a ticket and not seeing it.
Manga/Animated violence and gore is something I can handle. Seeing it done in "live action" and on the big screen tends to make me feel... eh...
I'm sure there will be parts that I'll have to force myself to look away.
Pansy? Yes I am.
