What a difference when it's about Christianity

[kellynla]

The "critics" didn't seem to have a problem with "The Last Temptation of Christ" or "Schindler's List"...I am going to see the "Passion" today so I'll give you all my review later.

Me thinks the many devils around us are all very concerned....

Where were the people when the movies of Pulp Fiction, Kill Bill and Natural Born Killers came out?

[EggsAckley]

Whatever happened to "let the audience decide?" These critics are squirming in their seats hoping to convince us what is bad about the film. I for one, will make up my own mind.

I doubt this movie's target audience is the athiest liberal Northeast elite, from which most movie critics doubtless hail from, if not literally then in spirit.

INTREP - THE PASSION OF THE CHRIST

[the OlLine Rebel]

Yes, Christianity, but such duplicity also occurs "the closer it is to the United States of America".

Witness Gibson's own "Patriot". I could write a book! (And I have on Amazon and IMDB.com)

"Patriot" while being very successful was excoriated in the media. They tried every angle to desparately keep people from going. 1 of the last was the violence nonsense.

"Patriot" is hardly violent compared to your average modern movie - and certainly not gratuitously so. Amazing for being a war. Yet there was weeping and gnashing of teeth about it. And guess what? Same writer as "Saving Private Ryan". Yet that movie was all praised - guess why? Cuz Liberal Steven Spielberg did it, and his concern was to show us how awful war is (hence we should never do such things), which is perfectly fine w/libs cuz they say war is never acceptable. So they love it if you show how horrid something is, just to prevent people from ever doing such things....

Bottom line, the "violence" objection was the last resort on the Patriot. Because it was about the very founding conflict of a nation liberals *hate*, and they hate nothing more than the bigoted, sexist, racist, warmongers who created this horrible country.

Likewise they hate Christianity - my guess, most likely cuz it's the backbone of our USofA society, which they hate.

"It will incite contempt for Jews."

Yes, just like Sept 11 2001 incited widespread mayhem, terror and lynchings of Arabs, Moslems and any1 who looked like them.

What an insult to (non-Jewish) American *character*.

[Chewbacca]

Most of these critics giving negative reviews of this movie would rather blaspheme the name of Jesus and regulate it to a curse word. None of them want to be reminded about who it really is they are cursing.
