@boyi & @bobafett - I guess what @walids is trying to depict is the latest movie of Mel Gibson (Producer/Director) - The Passion of Christ! For me this is just one of a major breakthrough in terms of making movies which has a 'religious' touch. Here in Manila, we always watch thru the national television same re-runs of the Life of Jesus made during the Lenten Season, the one w/c was produced in the 50's. But to my surprise when I saw the teaser of the latest movie, it was the exact replica of the one I am viewing for the past 20 years. Though this one was more 'bloodier' and cruelty done to Jesus was given more emphasis compared to the original one. |

@bobafett - I am a movie freak, some say that I am already a 'critic' at that ! What keeps me wondering eversince I become addicted to watching movies is that why the producers do not make films which has some 'religious' relevance? I know for a fact that they are 100% after - big profit, not until Mel Gibson made this one. Like in the case of Steven Spielberg, Jerry Bruckheimer and James Cameron, why can't they make/produce worthwhile religious movies nowadays? Not just making perennial action-hit movies in the like of Tomb Raider and The Matrix .
There are 'rumors' going on that an 'inevitable' asteroid is about to hit the Earth, in a few years time - effect is similar to what happened during Noah's time. Major flooding will be felt everywhere !
Though this has not been so much publicized in such major news channels - BBC and CNN to avoid paranoia and panic.
Better start repenting from our sins mates!
Here's the photo of the big-hit movie 'The Passion of Christ' . . .

@jojo the last movie i do liked and after i sad WOW was the silence of the lambs. Anthony Hopkins showed us where acting starts and ends. I read the book on 3 languages just to suck his person in me, hannibal lecter is amazing. Or more the writer of the trilogy. Havent been to cinema in the last 2 years, next time for sure to star wars 3. Not many interest for the movies of now a days, if it is, i watch them on dvd.

Ben hur is a great movie. Those were thd times! In the past the actors and actrasses played in the films, now stars. Sad. A very interesting film of religion was for me the name of the rose. But the book was much better and amazing. Do like umberto eco!

@bobafett - There were times that I used to like watching old movie flicks, just like what my Mom used to tell me, she just hates watching action-packed films which were made with computer-generated effects. Like when she viewed The Matrix - she just hates it when she sees the actors fighting on the house's ceilings etc. etc. Also, she lamented that during the 40's and 50's, when movies were made it sure will have a cast in the hundreds - 'AT LEAST'. Like in the movie The Ten Commandments and Gone With The Wind. Unlike now, when the movie The Gladiator was made it 'FAKED' the audiences in the Arena, made to believe that there were hundreds of them, but instead only around 50 - computer geeks made it happen !
