how does it feel to be a pansy?

Fine, for the most part... except for having it instinctively and wrongly used as some sort of insult to signify... what? Cowardice? Fear of contention or a Triplets of Belleville-type thread?  :roll:  

I suppose that the same mind that characterizes having a standard for discourse a "pansy" quality would also characterize having a standard for films (which Mel Gibson's fall well short of) as being snobbish, so I probably won't be losing any sleep over it.

im so proud of you

Quote from: OnomatopoeiaLENO: Apparently, originally, Gibson wanted Bill Murray to play Jesus, and the film was to be called Lost in Salvation.

Could that be one of the worst joke of all time ? I would think so.


Mogwai ... there's a wallpaper with Satan's face on the Passion website. He/she looks better in the movie though.

LENO: Also, Satanists are upset at the film, saying Satan came off bad in the movie.  Yeah, they're calling it anti-Satanic.

I can't believe no one's said anything about this one -- it's hilarious!!
Those who say that the totalitarian state of the Soviet Union was not "real" Marxism also cannot admit that one simple feature of Marxism makes totalitarianism necessary:  the rejection of civil society. Since civil society is the sphere of private activity, its abolition and replacement by political society means that nothing private remains. That is already the essence of totalitarianism; and the moralistic practice of the trendy Left, which regards everything as political and sometimes reveals its hostility to free speech, does nothing to contradict this implication.

When those who hated capital and consumption (and Jews) in the 20th century murdered some hundred million people, and the poster children for the struggle against international capitalism and America are now fanatical Islamic terrorists, this puts recent enthusiasts in an awkward position. Most of them are too dense and shameless to appreciate it, and far too many are taken in by the moralistic and paternalistic rhetoric of the Left.

Jay Leno is a fuckstick. They need to give Conan his time slot.

Leno sucks.

Moreover I don't really get it/see why it's funny.
LENO: "It's funny because of how Translation and Salvation rhyme. Get it?"

Quote from: FooBoyI liked The Passion Of The Christ quite a lot, although it has it's share of flaws. The film's weaknesses lie in the depiction of some of the very minor characters, who seem rather two-dimensional. In particular, this criticism can be applied to the Romans who whip Jesus, who act as though they've stumbled off the set of Xena, doing little more than grinning oafishly and cackling between blows. That said, main actors are all very good, and credit goes out to Jim Caviezel for his terrific performance - his role was no doubt one of the most difficult for an actor to play. Anti-semetic? I didn't think so. It was the people in power calling the shots, not the Jews as a race. Also, I wouldn't call the film depressing - quite the opposite actually, although I don't think it's uplifting in a conventional sense. Overall, dispite some quibbles, I think Gibson handled the material fairly well, making this is one of the better films of its type.

Good enough to get Caviez' an Oscar nod for "Best Actor" in next year's Oscars?
