I was, in the interest of fairness, going to try to slip down this past weekend and check it out... until i saw the some of the merchandising associated with the movie and decided that Mel Gibson's motives can't be as righteous as he is selling. Crucifixion nail pendants? I can see wearing something like that if you are an unrepentant fucker like me, but i would have figured all the true believer types who are going to this movie hoping that Mel will deliver them their very own pre-packaged, pre-fab epiphany would be shocked, aghast and generally horrified at such a thing... but then again, considering al the tacky swag they sell in exchange for your "love gift" on religious TV i suppose nothing should shock me. I'm surprised there aren't fast-food restaurant tie-ins: "The Last Value Meal" (Collect a different Apostle with every meal, lucky winners will get their very own crown of thorns!!! And all for less than 30 pieces of silver!)
