The Book is always better than the movie......................

I hope they use English this time.

It was the subtitles that knocked it out of running for the Oscars Best Movie award, since it was a ‘foreign language film’................

[dfwgator]

I beg to differ, I prefer subtitles. Always found it weird in war movies when Germans speak English with a British accent.

I recent watched “The Longest Day”, where all the actors spoke English, instead of their native language......Couldn’t watch it, I much prefer to have actors speak the native language with subtitles.

Just don’t have Hayden Christensen play resurrected Jesus.

[Red Badger]

Seeing that I’m practically deaf, subtitles are a help, but I like both the English and the subtitles to be the same.

My wife won’t go see a movie with subtitles at all................

[Red Badger]

Who is Hayden Christensen?

Is he a bad actor or a good one?....................

[paterfamilias]

We watch it every year during Holy Week.

It adds a huge amount to my understanding of His Passion and Death.

(16 years of Catholic education here).

[Larry Lucido]

He played ghost Darth Vader. Or rather he was airbrushed in by George Lucas to replace the original actor from the original film. And I was being a bit facetious.

Have never seen a single Star Wars film since the original in 1977...................

“The movie brought in more than $611 million worldwide on a $30 million budget-———”

Astonishing !

If you're bored on a rainy afternoon, Empire Strikes Back is a good flick, and then, of course, you'd have to round out the original trilogy by watching the more mediocre but sstill entertaining Return of the Jedi, but, after that, your life would remain in a much better condition if you avoided every single other Star Wars film ever to be puked out by Lucas or Disney.

Thanks for the ping. This is such welcome news!

I like the old guy from the original return of the Jedi. I hate what Lucas and Spielberg did to their own films 2 decades later. Han shot first. And the FBI carried shotguns, not walkie talkies.

Never saw the ‘Passion ‘. 10 years of Catholic parochial school gave me pretty much all the data.

Try it at least once. I put off watching it for years because I, believing the media, thought it would be a non-stop gore fest.

It's not like that at all. I was surprised by how absorbing it is. Yes it's bloody, but it's also accurate.

Jesus is the Word and reading the Word is more important than any movie, of course. But there's something important about seeing the Word too.
