It’s going to be a comedy: **Dude, Where’s My M&Ms?** They fell through the holes in His hands. ---

> [@Cervaise](#): > > Man, I thought I was the only one who saw that. Good little flick, unfairly overlooked now, lost in time. Loved that movie. The writer/director, Michael Tolkin, has a surprisingly slim filmography, but his follow-up as a director, _The New Age_, is also a really fantastic and heady film. ---

I watched the first one, it gave me an undying (heh) hatred for Mel Gibson. Loathsome film. However, Revelations would be a fun film, all CGI. Cast of infinite thousands, and some super-scary angels. ---

> [@Love\_Rhombus](#): > > I didn’t watch the first movie. Was there something at the end of the credits that suggested this might happen? ⁢ There is a very brief indication of the Resurrection at the end, which I understand Gibson didn’t initially include. There obviously is a follow up–the book of Acts exists. But not one that would seem to be in the same genre. Not unless maybe they’re going to show each of the disciples and apostles who died being tortured? (But, other than Stephen, none of those are in the Bible proper.) I guess a Revelation movie could work as well. I’m so used to trilogies that I didn’t even consider that. You could get mileage out of depicting how gruesome that dream allegory is. ---
