And yet, Hollywood, going against its own business interests, is reportedly set to blacklist Mel Gibson. The New York Times reports that the powers that be in the movie industrythose defenders of artistic freedom who bewail the blacklisting of Hollywood's communists decades agoare going to punish Mr. Gibson for making this movie. With $200-$300 million profit eventually sitting in his bank account, Mel is now his own studio.
He has no further need of the homosexual Hollywood mafia.

I refuse to believe the statements about having nothing further to do with Mel Gibson. The lure of money is absolutely overpowering to these scum.

I am going to give Mel a couple extra bucks today.
I will be seeing it for the second time.(and of course the DVD will be out after the world release run)
The way this is going, it may be some time before we see the DVD however.

After the US run is through, foreign take, and DVD/Video, you may have lowballed that number by about 50%.
Be interesting to see a "sequel"; I personally would like to see a remake of Quo Vadis. With a $200 million budget, and some scenes of early christian like in Rome. Maybe a church service scene with Peter given the sermon (I Peter verbatim).
Filmed in Latin and Septuagent, of course.

there are some Jews who blame all Christians, including those who were not alive at the time, and Christianity itself for the Holocaust.Tell that to the Allied soldiers, many of them Christian, who died while liberating the concentration camps.
It would suggest that there at least as many non thinking Jews as there are non thinking Christians.
