Welcome, Jet, to A2K and the film forum. Could we have a short scenerio of your prospective movie? What's the hook? Or should I say, what's the sixteen inch spike?

Okay, how 'bout this.
Passion 2: Electric Boogaloo (musical)
A breakdancing Jesus and his apostles stick it to the Romans by putting on a show to save the community center. It's all about the breakin', poppin', hip-hop lifestyle.

They should be careful, those flowing robes could be a hindrance while breakin'.
'Course this leads me to ....
Roller Boogie Passion
Linda Blair and Mel Gibson skate their way into your heart as they follow the stations of the cross on wheels.
Ebert - I thought the skating was okay, but you only saw Linda Blair in the closeups, and she didn't turn her head all the way around.
Roeper - Really, Roger, how many times do I have to explain it to you? Demonic possession, disco roller boogie and Easter are not all the same thing, despite the fact that they're all really colorful.

HWF Smackdown! (Heaven Wrestling Federation)
Hehe - I love this show...
You guys have covered most of the movies, (although by no means all - leaving out such memorable ones as When Jesus met Satan, Once upon a time in Bethleham, Natural Reborn Killers and National Lampoon's Crucifiction) but what about those great TV shows your children will be growing up on? Or all those porn movies old JC featured in - like the original Passion of Christ? Oh, and of course divine sports events such as, my favorite, HWF Smackdown! Allah versus the Trinity... Allah has Jesus in a strangle hold when suddenly the holy spirit beats Allah over the head with a chair whilst God has the reveree distracted - no fair, three against one!
And let's not even start on all the Praystation games!
...actually, let's...

Welcome to A2K and the film forum, nielowait.
Love "National Lampoon's Crucifixion" (not quite sure why you had trouble with our italics -- did you highlight the entire title and then click on italics in the post reply window?)
The Praystation games would be a hoot.
Mel Gibson's "Roman and Jew Rampage."
Play this exciting game where you pit Jews and Romans against the Saviour. Whip, cane, spit, stab, fashion a crown of thorns and crucify Jesus in this action thriller. Then seek redemption by confessing your sins. Wafers and wine provided. Real whip not included.

Immortal Kombat
Thx. Mainly the italics were due to the fact that I've only ever got half my brain max focused on 'reality'... way more fun watching the cartoon in my head.... oooh, didn't see that one coming - he just pulled a hat from a rabbit! That's gotta hurt.
Another fun Praystation game would be Immortal Kombat... you can just keep on beating the **** out of each other - only part that would suck is you'd have to wait three days before you can play with Jesus again... like what the apostels did...
That's another thing; why didn't they show the aspects of Jesus' live regarding his sexuality in as frank and forthright a manner as they did with the violence - I mean seriously; he had 12 men around him all the time and the most intimate he ever got with a woman was when one washed his feet with her hair!
A final thought occurred - Jesus would make a great lifeguard...

Uh, oh, I just thought of Bethlehem Blanket Bingo
Jesus and Mary (Frankie Avalon and Annette Funicello, of course) frolic in the surf and sand while discussing faith and thinking up ways to annoy the Roman.
Ebert - a fun romp for all!
Roeper - why is her swimsuit down to her ankles?

Well, if we can believe The De Vinci Code, he was married to Mary Magdalene. Of course, in modern times that doesn't mean someone is exclusively heterosexual. Martin Scorcese's "The Last Temptation of Christ" was based on some of the same Gnostic texts and to my knowledge, Rabiis did not swear to be celibate.

Rabbis never swore to be celibate. In fact, not having sex with your wife at least two times a week and twice on the Sabbath were grounds for divorce in ancient times.

Glad you confirmed that -- is there something everyone missed in the Bible where God swears his Son to celibacy? Jim Caviezel was cast as a Hollywood hunk version of the Count of Monte Cristo so it was a natural leap to make Christ sexually appealing to both sexes for the screen.
As a famous golfer, he was about as exciting as artifical insemination.

The celibacy thing, I believe, was a New Testament "innovation."

Something new, every day.
I never knew Jesus was a famous golfer!
They say more souls are lost on the golf course than anywhere else you know.

Jim Caviezel was starred in a movie about Bobby Jones which flopped big time at the box office and, again like "Passion", barely drew any good reviews.

cross topic : passion2 as F9/11
an analogy... if thats the right word for it
the passion 2 as fahrenheit 911 or fahrenheit2004
Jesus Chist comes back as Michael Moore the defender of truth and freedom to right the wrongs of George Julius Caesar Bush and the evil roman republicans ...
but this time who will nail who to the cross
will the roman republicans hammer nails through poor m-i-c-k-e-y m-o-o-r-e or will michael get to nail dubya
only time will tell....
we will have to wait and see as this gripping story unfolds..... :wink:

And you guys thought I used a lot of emoticons!
Welcome to A2K Col Man!
I forget, have we done:
3 men and a baby Jesus? 3 inept Jews are thrown into the unlikely position of having care for a baby. Be careful you don't laugh yourself into asphyxiation as these 3 buffoons take turns beating the baby Jesus with everything from abacuses (big heavy ones) to zinfandels (cheap bottles too). Finally, after they've kicked his ass from Abaco to Zimbabwe, they do the unthinkable and leave you wondering. Yes folks, there will be yet another sequel so you can look forward to yet another sequel:
3 men and a little more ass-kicking for Christ.

That should be "Three Men and A Little More Ass-kicking for Christ's Sake?"
