"Passion of the Christ" beaten out of #1 by rising from the dead story...

[Tom Yossarian Joad]

Dawn of the Living Dead beat "The Passion of the Christ" this weekend.

Coincidence?

I think not. What do you think?

[Liberal Veteran]

1. Personally, I think Passion is overhyped.

A long torture sequence holds little interest to me. I'll wait for a more complete telling of the story.

2. hey. it's a good movie

dawn of the dead, that is. i've seen enough jesus movies for one lifetime.

3. The movie doesn't bother me, it;s what Gibson's nazi father

said about the Holocaust that does!! :mad:

4. Yes, but it begs to question, what "zombie stage" did JC look like

after three days dead?

And did he do the zombie shuffle?

6. Bad, Robert

bad, Robert. :spank: :spank: :spank:

Such sacrilege! You know you're burning in hell for that. :hi:

7. LOL... I live in a country run by *. I'm already in hell!

Holy shit! You exposed my real name!!!!!!!

Damn it, Grezelda, you swore you'd never tell!

:)

8. Whoops!

Was it supposed to be a secret? And I told you to stop calling me Grezelda. ;-)

9. You swore you'd never tell my real name is Robert Novak and that I'm

a closet Dem....

12. We eat Jesus...would zombie Jesus eat himself?

15. Zombie shuffle??? The zombies in the Dead remake are

Olympic sprinters! A disturbing new twist in zombie behavior, if you ask me.

16. They started that with the Resident Evil zombies I think.

10. Funny!!!!!!!!! Loved this clip:

<snip>

I’ll make the Jesus review quick – it fucking rules. It made me yell, “Jesus Christ on a cross!” even the scenes that didn’t have Jesus Christ on a cross. This one’s directed by Mel Gibson and he obviously learned some shit from LETHAL WEAPON 2 because he gets right to the action. There’s a shot of the moon and then right away there’s gladiator dudes beating the crap out of a bunch of hippies. Jesus is this guy with a super-powered left hand – it’s like he can give people Wolverine powers by touching them with his left hand. He makes a guy’s ear grow back but before you know it the gladiator dudes arrest him and beat the be-jeezus out of Jesus for two straight hours. Then they nail him to a cross, and he dies, but not after bleeding enough blood to fill up everyone in CADDYSHACK plus that fat vampire dude in the first BLADE movie. Everyone’s pissed at Jesus. They all want him dead. But this is back in Bible times, when they didn’t have shotguns and chainsaws, and back then when you want to kill a superhero you have to rain two hours of whomp-ass on him and then nail him to something, sort of like a message to other superheroes. And they must have gotten the message, because there weren’t any more superheroes until Superman.

LOLOLOOL!!!!!!!!!!!!

11. I guess Mel only made half a film

Should have included the Resurrection- heck life after death is what most of us are hoping for, isn't it.

[Fenris]

13. I was hoping it would stay at #1 long enough to be beaten by "Hellboy"

But "Dawn of the Dead" is fitting nonetheless.

14. Oh, the irony!!!!
