Sir,

With all due repect, this is NOT a movie to view with popcorn. This is an accurate depiction of the crucifixion of our Savior Jesus Christ. It should repulse you, you should weep and wail at the penalty Jesus paid for you and me. We deserved all the humiliation and pain that He received. This movie is to be experienced, but it is not entertainment. Then meditate on the love of God, REJOICE in His perfect plan of salvation for all who believe.
John 3:16 clearly explains why Jesus died.

Most people eat popcorn at movies. He's just asking if anyone wants to see the movie with him. I do.

As it will be dinner time when I'm seeing the movie, I'll be buying some to eat. It will be hard to see, and surely the weight of the movie is serious. However, I'm sure I'll be able to handle eating and crying at the same time.

It doesn't mean that I (or anyone else that eats or drinks during this movie) takes it less serious.

True, however the Movie Theaters make nearly all their money on concessions and literally no money on the movie. So if nobody buys popcorn or cokes, then the theaters will be hesitant to show pictures like this again in the future.

So buy some popcorn and some candy and some cokes. Support the theaters that are courageous enough to show this film. Heck, don't eat the popcorn, give it to the guy behind you in line. Show a little christian charity. Or if you really feel generous, buy a pair of tickets for the guy behind you in line.
