 My Life After The Passion of The Christ
Now that Gibson has brought Christ's passion to life so that we may experience the ultimate, sacrificial death (in the convenient space of a mere two hours), those who wish to avoid the film's impact rationalize their stance by saying the film is too graphic.
Mel Gibson's masterful rendering of The Passion of the Christ is not a popcorn movie.
The Passion is an intense paradox of divine proportions.

 JEWSWEEK - The Jewsweek Review: Jesus Christ, Superstar?
You'd have to be living under a rock for the last year to not witness the veritable media frenzy that is surrounding Mel Gibson's new Jesus biopic The Passion of the Christ.
National news broadcasts, magazine covers, talk radio -- it seems to have supplanted coverage of even the elections and the war in Iraq.
Benyamin Cohen is the editor of Jewsweek Magazine and is currently authoring a book tentatively titled How to Find a Wife in 100 Dates.

 The Holy Observer: Campus Crusade for Christ Sues Mel Gibson over Passion
Douglass, whose ministry has promoted The Passion of the Christ on the Web site for the JESUS film for months (information about Passion was still prominently displayed on the site at press time), was invited to the screening by Gibson himself as a gesture of thanks for the ministry's support of Passion.
The lawsuit came about after Campus Crusade for Christ President Steve Douglass attended a private, advance screening of the film at a small theater in Beverly Hills.
Witnesses tell THO that an obviously furious Douglass stormed out of the theater after the viewing without even stopping to talk to Gibson, a devout Catholic, who was waiting to shake his hand in the lobby.

 DVD Talk > Reviews > South Park:Passion of the Jew > Printer Friendly
Cartman sees "The Passion of the Christ" and decides to adopt Mel Gibson as his personal Lord and Savior.
So there is precedent for Comedy Central/Paramount to release South Park: The Passion of the Jew on DVD the exact same date as some other film with "Passion" in the title.
South Park: The Passion of the Jew is presented in full-frame video, just as it aired on Comedy Central.

 The Revealer: The Dolorous Passion of Cartman
While this isn't quite thoughtful commentary, it did set a precedent for a South Park that was home to Jesus and his talk show, that received repeated visits by Satan, that has revisited Christmas pageants with the music of Philip Glass and that has, last season, offered a funny, if unquestionably irreverent, history of Mormon.
While these examples have not quite offered the exceptional sensitivity evident in "The Passion of the Jew," (they had only one half-hour and managed to incorporate so much) their capacity to recognize the different debates that arise around cultural artifacts and public practices is impressive and hilarious.
Kyle’s self-awareness of his Judaism and the potential for the film to position Jews on the “wrong side” of a mass phenomenon sets the stage for a confrontation between the Jewish and Christian communities of South Park.

 Jewish Leader Says Mel Gibson 'Infected' With Anti-Semitism -- 11/07/2003
Foxman made the remarks at a panel discussion titled "Mel Gibson's The Passion: A Conversation on Its Implications for Jews and Christians." The discussion took place during the 90th annual national meeting of the ADL in New York City on Thursday.
During the panel discussion, Foxman warned of the danger that Passion plays about the crucifixion of Christ have historically posed to Jews, because they frequently reinforce the notion of collective Jewish guilt for the death of Jesus.
Foxman claimed that "hate crimes [against Jews] go up Easter week worldwide" because in many Christian churches, "the sermon is given about the passion (the suffering of Christ)."

 The New Yorker: The Talk of the Town
As a result, Pagels said, the Gospels, which were intended not as history but as preaching, as religious propaganda to win followers for the teachings of Christ, portrayed the conflict of the Passion as one between Jesus and the Jewish people, led by Caiaphas.
Usually, she is measured, soft-spoken, but there was the slightest tone of agitation in her voice: “It’s important to remember that this is Lent, and meditations on the Passion of Christ are an important part of the cultural interpretation of human suffering.
Pagels explained that the four gospel writers of the New Testament probably wrote between 70 and 100 A.D. These were the years following the Roman defeat of the Jews, which left the Temple and the center of Jerusalem in ruins.

 Boston.com / A&E / Movies / Vatican denies pope endorsed Gibson film
Archbishop Stanislaw Dziwisz, the pope's longtime personal secretary, now has said the pontiff did not give a thumbs up to "The Passion of the Christ," as the producers have claimed.
Abraham Foxman of the Anti-Defamation League said he's heartened by Dziwisz's words: "I'm glad the Vatican is, in fact, putting out the word that the pope did not endorse this movie." Gibson, who put $25 million into "The Passion of the Christ," denies his film, which portrays the torture of Jesus, maligns Jews.
Dziwisz's remarks carry extra weight because the Vatican usually lets its spokesman, Joaquin Navarro-Valls, talk for the pope.

 Mel tongue-ties studios;'Apocalypto' to be filmed in obscure Mayan dialect (MEL GIBSON ALERT)
And because "Apocalypto" is not a religious pic, there's no guarantee of an encore turnout of the church groups and hardcore Catholics who made "The Passion of the Christ" a nearly $1 billion box office/DVD bonanza.
Set 500 years ago, pic will be filmed in an obscure Mayan dialect, presumably with the same kind of subtitles Gibson reluctantly added to "The Passion of the Christ." It will star a neophyte cast indigenous to the region of Mexico where Gibson will shoot in October.
While that paper piled up on ICM co-prexy Ed Limato's desk, Gibson was accumulating pages of his own, scribbling "Apocalypto" in his office and becoming so passionate about it that he changed his plans to star in the Icon-produced drama "Under and Alone" for Warner Bros.

 Weblog: Is the National Day of Prayer Too Political? - Christianity Today Magazine
It should have come as no surprise when Mel Gibson and his movie, "The Passion of the Christ," came under intense scrutiny and criticism —before it was released —by people who had never seen the film.
Mel Gibson's "Passion of the Christ" seems to have become a rage among the Christians in the country even before the film hits theatres across the country on Friday.
At first blush, the lineup for Third Day's Live tour might seem a bit puzzling—acoustic-pop singer-songwriter Warren Barfield, DC Talk'er tobyMac with his rap/hip hop/RandB sound, and the headliners, dedicated and relentless rockers.

Spielberg was accompanied Wednesday by several Holocaust survivors who recently took part in the production of a new SSVHF project called "Giving Voice: Today's Teens Get Real About Bias," a reality-based TV program in which seven adolescents watch testimonies of Holocaust survivors, then talk about their reactions.
He had also come to talk about the Shoah Foundation, which has spent the last 10 years recording the testimonies of 52,000 Holocaust survivors.

 Guardian Unlimited Film Interviews Leap of faith
Caviezel, known more for playing supporting roles in films such as The Thin Red Line or Frequency, was Mel Gibson's first choice to play the role of Jesus in The Passion of the Christ, which focuses on the last 12 hours in Jesus's life and explores, in graphic detail, his torture and crucifixion.
Caviezel's muscular, athletic build - he ocean swims and learned to play golf for Bobby Jones, Stroke of Genius - is a far cry from his thin and beaten figure in The Passion.
In the brief moments during the two-hour Passion when Caviezel is not drenched in blood, he shows sincerity with a smile and tenderness with a glimmer in his eyes (which were coloured brown in post-production).

Opening in the garden of Gethsemane, where Jesus (Jim Caviezel) is praying to his Father, the film is mostly concerned with the last 12 hours of Christ's life.
In those circles, not proclaiming the film one of the all-time greats is tantamount to denouncing God Himself.

 :: Oscar Race :: July 2004 ::
At the halfway point of 2004, the only two feature-length motion pictures generating the kind of buzz that merits Oscar consideration are Mel Gibson’s “The Passion of the Christ” and Michael Moore’s “Fahrenheit 9/11.” Both have received largely favorable reviews, although the latter was more uniformly hailed by film critics than the former.
But the Oscars are a long way away, and a lot can change before then.
Given the brothers’ notorious lust for Oscar glory, they will pull out all the stops if they think “Fahrenheit” as a shot at Best Picture, if for no other reason than to shove it in Eisner’s face.

 Indymedia UK - Fahrenheit 9/11 is Highest Grossing Documentary of All Time!
Attendance for "Fahrenheit 9/11" resembled nothing so much as the other surprise movie event of this year, the fervor ignited by Mel Gibson's movie about the Crucifixion, "The Passion of the Christ." That film has taken in $370 million domestically and sailed to blockbuster status on a wave of media controversy and debate.
The film's weekend success was fodder for the Sunday morning political talk shows, as pundits wondered what the political influence of the film might be, if any, on President Bush's re-election campaign.
The film went on to become a sensation at the Cannes International Film Festival, where it won the Palme d'Or in May, and was picked up for distribution by the independent distributors Lions Gate and IFC Films, who promised to release the film by the Fourth of July.
