PLEASE NOTE: The Reality TV World Message Boards are filled with desperate
attention-seekers pretending to be one big happy PG/PG13-rated family. Don't
be fooled. Trying to get everyone to agree with you is like herding cats,
but intolerance for other viewpoints is NOT welcome and respect for other
posters IS required at all times. Jump in and play, and you'll soon find out
how easy it is to fit in, but save your drama for your mama. All members are
encouraged to read the
complete guidelines.
As entertainment critic Roger
Ebert once said, "If you disagree with something I write, tell me so, argue
with me, correct me--but don't tell me to shut up. That's not the American way."

I just wanted to take this opportunity to point out that "The Passion" has grossed over 300 million dollars, and is now ranked #13 on the top domestic grossing movies of all time:http://boxofficemojo.com/alltime/domestic.htm With Holy Week coming up, I think it's safe to say that it will break into the top 10. My husband and I plan to see it again next week, to prepare us for Resurrection Sunday (Easter). I think this movie's success has exceeded everyone's expectations!

doesnt he belong to some conservative branch of the Catholic church? The name is escaping me, but I dont think its Roman Catholic.
The louder he talked of his honour, the faster we counted our spoons.

Mel Gibson used his own money to produce a piece of "entertainment". Why should he have to donate the profits to anyone?But anyway, I read (I think in People-sorry I don't have the exact source right now) that he quietly donated $1.5 million to those conjoined twins from the Philipines towards their medical expenses. I expect he would use the rest of his profits to finance more movie projects.

I saw this film last Friday. I am a Christian, (specifically, baptized Lutheran), and was born and raised in N.Y.C. I have many Jewish friends, mostly by race, a few by religion. (To be specific, 3 Orthodox Jewish.) I spoke to 2 of my Orthodox Jewish friends Sunday night, and they also saw this movie. Not meaning to bore you all with these details; however, I did want to show that I had opinions from all over the place. I was moved and over-whelmed BEYOND words over this film. I never and still do not blame the Jewish people for Christ's death. My Jewish friends do not take responsibility for Christ's death. This was prophesized. (sp?) Jesus of Nazareth had to die on the cross in order to open up the Gates of Heaven. The beatings? The floggings? The affixing of the crown of thorns? The march towards Gethesda, (again, sp.?)? The actual crucifixtion? All this was due to the cowardice/politics of Pontius Pilate and King Herod, ignited by the hypocrisy of the Pharisees. OK. Now that many of you are now pissed off at me, (since I have pretty much tended to stay quiet on all things controversial till now), let me say that in my own naive fashion, I see this film as a way of over-coming and understanding SO many differences. I left this movie with not only an even greater loving of my Lord Jesus Christ and His Blessed God our Father; but, also, a greater love of all human-kind. Misto, and many of us, recently shared our differing thoughts on Easter on a previous thread. The underlying message, I believe, was this: We all have varying beliefs, thoughts and traditions. In the end, they're ALL good... as long as we respect one another and maintain our faith in whom we believe in. If I may: God bless you all in what we hold dear to our hearts. Wanda
Praise JSlice!
