Its ridiculous all the publicity about this movie. Its been for 3 weeks and only has grossed $3.7 million. It is number 9 this week. Passion of the Christ made more money in 3 hours then this movie has made so far. I do not know of one anti-religious moves that has done will in the box office: Last Temptation of Christ, Priests, etc. Hollyweird will never learn.

It appears to me that some of these reviews are far more offensive than the movie itself.

Andrew Coffin pegs this tendentious movie pretty accurately in his article 'Cartoon Christians.'

Is this producer Michael Stipe the fairy from the washed-up pop band R.E.M.? That might explain how one of the "good guys" is a gayster. Of course, it could just be explained by the Hollywood Commandments.

Mr. Stipe has recently said that "anyone of faith who is secure in that faith probably has a sense of humor about it and would like the movie."

In that case, I can't wait until Michael Stipe does the followup film, "Jihad," about the lighter side of Islam. I'm sure that Muslims would be chuckling about having burkhas and honor killings satirized on the big screen.
