I noticed that Mel didn’t have a shot of a Roman soldier syaing “Truly this was the son of God!”.
I guess that he didn’t want people to be reminded of the movie where John Wayne had a cameo as that soldier. (John Wayne voice: “Tru-ly, this was the Sun of Gawd!”)
How about The Passion Revelations? I hear that the scene where Jesus and the Keymaster hijack a white horse and battle an entire army of replicated Satans is supposed to be the most complicated sequence ever put on film.
That’s the Judean People’s Front! The sworn enemy of the People’s Front of Judea, and the Front of the Judean People, and the Judean People’s Popular Front.
'Once inside the movie, Christians began pelting Wendell with Gummy Bears, Ju-Ju Bees, and popcorn. Management got involved after a 75-year-old woman, Hazel Meyer, poured a 64-ounce Coca-Cola on Wendell.
Tim Tolbert, General Manager of Kerasotes Stadium 16, asked Wendell to leave because he was such a disruptive presence. “Our corporate policy is to eject anyone that interferes with the movie experience of fellow patrons,” Tolbert said.’
Some old lady poured a half gallon of Coke on him, and he’s the one interfering with the movie patrons?! Somebody’s got their wires crossed here. (So to speak.)
The “Guy Dresses as Satan” story is poor satire because real news is usually funnier, and the “Same Sex Marriage” bit is poor satire because it’s clearly written by a thirteen year old under the influence of a six-pack of shitty beer he stole from his old man.
(Don’t feel bad about the whoosh – I found the link presented at face value at (the usually more discerning and media-savvy) Jim Romenesko’s 'blog. I see he has since taken it down, so I imagine he was taken in, too.)
