Christ Gets Pissed On, Muhammad Gets a $150 Million Biopic

There’s absolutely nothing wrong with a respectful, big-budget biopic of the prophet Muhammad – that’s not the point – but it’s well worth remembering that while he was one of the biggest movie stars in the world, Oscar-winning director Mel Gibson had his ”Passion of the Christ” turned down by every studio in town. You know, even though 70% of Americans identify themselves as Christians.

Now, if Gibson had produced “The Pissing on the Christ…”

Producer Barrie Osborne cast Keanu Reeves as the messiah in The Matrix and helped defeat the dark lord Sauron in his record-breaking Lord of the Rings trilogy. Now the Oscar-winning American film-maker is set to embark on his most perilous quest to date: making a big-screen biopic of the prophet Muhammad.

Budgeted at around $150m (£91.5m), the film will chart Muhammad’s life and examine his teachings. Osborne told Reuters that he envisages it as “an international epic production aimed at bridging cultures. The film will educate people about the true meaning of Islam“.

The article then goes on to inform us that out of respect for Islamic law Muhammad will not be shown on the screen. If only such respect was extended to every major religion. Which isn’t to say religion, including Christianity, is above satire, but what we have here is another example of the mindset of those who control the most powerful propaganda machine ever created. Think about it: “The Passion” remains one of the most profitable films ever and yet an industry frequently ridiculed for reproducing ad nauseum anything resembling a hit will have none of it.

And even this biopic could get the producer killed. So, who knows?

[workerbee]

Bet I know which one gets the last laugh.

Will they show him raping children, murdering women, and fornicating with animals?

"When you loath Christians and want to do everything in your power to marginalize who they are what they stand for, there’s nothing at all hypocritical about pissing on Christ and deferring to Muhammad.

In fact, that behavior is perfectly consistent."

Thanks, but I've already had enough lessons on the true meaning of islam:

Is it going to feature Muhammad’s pedophile and homosexual behavior or will it go directly to the beheading of non believers in the name of Islamic peace?

[Tijeras_Slim]

Sounds like a gig for the dude that plays Borat.

[Tzimisce]

Let me guess, in the movie Mohammed will be partially inspired to create a new religion after seeing the need for national healthcare, the problem of global warming and how racist white Christians are trying to enslave the Arabs?

The writer of this is a tad misinformed. Barry Osborne didn’t cast Keanu Reeves in the “Matrix” or have any creative control over “Lord of the Rings”. He’s a line producer (and he’s the best). He controls the “below the line” production and scheduling. His comments about the Mohammed project are directed purely to the industry.

Prediction - no one will see it and the Hollywood libs will lose hundreds of millions.

And Jesus said: “Deny me before men and I will deny you before the Father” .....

Long before that event another mo movie (The Message 1976) inspired a bunch of them to take hostages in Washington DC which resulted in two deaths.
