bloodbath

i dont know if you watched the passion of the christ last night disco, but its the bloodiest spectacle on screen i have ever watched.i reckon the italians, and jews, will have won few friends after this "MEL GIBSON"reminder.

Ridiculous comment! A fine film, wonderfully made, to even begin your thread with "Bloodbath" speaks volumes.

i guess it was fullfilling for the gory brigade of today.all past jesus films have got their message across without so much in your face sadoism. still...takes all kinds i guess.

I worry about the way the word 'Jew' is used, most people would say 'Jewish'. Anti-Semite in our midst ??

thought you"d be coming in on someones coat tails hubs. = there he goes again wigan world...not sticking to the topic, but attacking a poster. tut tut tut.some people are just never going to learn. i mean, wheres the disciplin in this moron.he goes out of his way to hijack a post, no matter who has set the theme.

"not sticking to the topic". er....Moron, where was the word mentioned ????

passion of the christ is the topic up for discussion, or no discussion.

and your use of the word 'Jews' (which was in this topic, moron)

why keep arguing with each other do u no each other i dont understand

JF, I dont argue, I point out where the moron is wrong, hopefully in the right thread, if not, IT has a thread created by me to make use of

oki just dont no y u gotta be so against everyone

I'm not JF, am I against you ?

Gave up watching religious films once Chuck-snapping-turtle-jawed-Heston packed them in, which was????? Long enough ago not to remember.

Billy
I watched the last 20 minutes of the film last night. I had forgot that it was showing.I was just flicking through the channels when i came across it.I went to switch off but i couldnt.I think has well, because it was Easter, i felt compelled to watch.I wish now that i hadnt has i find the film too upsetting.
I got the DVD when it first came out and only watched it once and once was enough.
Did you know billy that before the film came out,apparently, the Pope watched it and gave his blessing for it to be shown.Because it shows the reality of that time in history. The film is no cover up and bears no resemblance at all to any glossy Hollywood film, ie;Spartacus,Ben Hur,etc
And yes Ian, the film is a bloodbath,it goes to show the brutality of the then Roman Empire.It shows warts and all,that part of time in history.
Has for the Mother of Jesus, having to watch what happened to her Son and there was nothing that she could do, was unbearble to watch.

no u avnt upset me but iv just bin readin your posts and find that u dont really get on on with some people on wigan world, and i like eveyone getting on im not an agrumentive person x x

Me too Jessie, i dont like arguments.

"some people"

Wow JF, quick change of heart from "y u gotta be so against everyone"

Why the transformation in such a small space of time ?

what do you expect when a bloke is whipped,stabbed,forced to wear a thorny crown and crucified he's not gonna have water pouring out of him. i didn't watch it meself it had a predictable ending.

hey you guys, you are very nice people, dont give this moronic monster anymore targets to vent his unhappiness on. i am here for that, i can take him off your backs.
i agree with you diva..but as i recall, powerfull groups in america gave gibson a rough ride over this film..you can guess which particular group were more incensed than others.yet this is the way movies and tv are moving this day and age, nothing left to the imagination anymore, ya gotta have it full on and in your face. is that a good thing??will it turn kids into non thinking caring tearaways on the streets??bad enough now i reckon.

"powerfull groups in america gave gibson a rough ride over this film..you can guess which particular group were more incensed than others"

I cant guess, please enlighten ?

Watch the film Emma!(Passion Of The Christ)Yeah we all know what happens at the end but its what leads up to it that is horrible.And from a Mothers perspective, no one should have to witness that happening to her child.

Suit,at the end of the day though, it was his own people that betrayed him and Mel Gibson told the story has the scriptures were written

what u on about now suit im not causing a argument everything u say is sarcastic just be nice coz ur making a lot of enemies on ere

jessie..please dont get involved with this wanna be x squaddie???he will add you to his target list. he can have all the agro he wants with me, and nothing sticks, cos he is ..as he has shown..an imbecile of the first order. back off jessie gal and be amused by his rants against me.
hi there hub caps. =

hellooo hub caps??????

thanks billy will not say anything else now just leave him to it x

I saw it a while ago Billy, they reckon its closer to the truth than most films as they were pretty barbaric back then. I got to admit I have only seen it the once, it was too graphic for me to want to see twice.Its a fantastic film all the same, but one I could only see the once.

Oooh when I first read your thread Billy, bloodbath I thought you had gone all Satanic or Withchcrafty on us. I can't get that vision of you sitting in a bath filled with blood out of my mind, think I might have nightmares tonight. Is it good for your skin or something?

Watched this on the pictures when it first came out, there were members of the St Johns ambulance brigade sat in the front row, ready in case anybody fainted etc..., but all that said the film was fantastic, heartbreaking,thought provoking, compulsive viewing, the list is endless.

I don't like watching gory films so I gave it a miss.

I know this sounds like I am being sarcastic....but read the book. This film is the BEST adaptation of the crucifixion of Christ ever to be made to this date. Yes, it shows the blood and the gore,the pain on His face, the breaking of the legs of the thieves to Christs left and right, the flesh being torn of His back and the ruthlessness of the roman guards, the water flowing from His side and healing the partially blind roman guard..just as the Bible depicts.....I applaud Gibson for making this film, and like you disco diva...I felt like I HAD to watch it, the little voice inside told me NOT to switch the channel

Is it a comedy?not read the book.

seems like ya aint in this world neither.
A COMEDY???good job christians aint fundamentalists, or your arse would be grass.

I haven't seen this particular epic,but then again I'm not a picture goer and I don't care much for Mel Gibson. Just out of interest,how does it compare with Monty Python's "Life of Brian"?

aint going to patronise that with an answer roy boy.
where ya bin anyway?thought the salties may have had your dangling feet. =

I think the best way to deal with THE SUIT is = do not answer any of his postings , that way he wrill soon give up

I thought that too Elizabeth but he tends to move onto another member, I have noticed 2 of our lovely members missing , and that guy aint a patch on either of them.But ignore him I shall, though I'd love to meet him face to face I have to admit.

OH MY GOD i have just watched it, what an absolute disgrace absolutely shocking, i am not a religious or violent person but i do not find any entertainment in watching a man whether jesus or an odinary man beaten for 2 hours. their was absolutely no need,it was a film about torture not about his last day of christ. there is no proof that he was beaten for this long, so why make it that long, we know he was crucified, so why exploit it? i am still in shock. it should of been banned!

hey up lads, there she blows (billy will love that bit!!) where are the 'lost' members? Posts will appear, police will be called, deary me! can we cope? you have gone off the thread -again - but who will you blame?

It's only a movie Emma nobody would have been hurt during the making of it,and it must have entertained you if you watched
it for two hours,and hot sweet tea is good for shock,"OH MY GOD i am not a religious person"? oy vey!

Its OK KB, I'm still here to blame

yes i know xrh it was more my curiosity that made me keep watching i thought there may have been a happy ending

But Emma,according to the teachings of the Catholic church and others,it [i/]was a "happy ending"

Like that Emma,"happy ending" good one!

you for real emma???

it was a joke billy hence the cheeky smile

he who laughs last is a pratt. =
memo...must take my medication. Smilies:

What,you've run out of Jim Beam,or perhaps overdosed? He who laughs last is usually one who thinks about the joke before deciding to respond accordingly. Or maybe.....

yeah...right.

He who laughs last was the last to get the joke!

he who laughs last is a dumb b*****d. =
