Boxcar was probably out catching Son of God at his local cinema.
BTW, I hear that movie sucks big time, as far as movies go...
I just watched The Passion of the Christ for the second time the other day. I don't think anyone will be brave enough to tackle the last 12 hours of Christ's life again after that (boy, was justice swift back then...12 freakin' hours from capture to crucifixion)...whatever you think about Mel Gibson, that was one brutal yet amazing movie on many levels.
I also think the Jewish response to it, while quite understandable, was overdone especially when you read the actual Gospels. Most everything controversial that is in that movie is also in the Bible, albeit perhaps not at the same intensity.
Yes, Gibson took liberties, as all Hollywood productions do. But to think what was portrayed in that movie could NOT have happened during those times (the priests repeatedly calling for Christ to be executed and appearing "bloodthirsty") isn't thinking clearly.
Boy, did I just attempt to take this thread off on a tangent or what?
