The Passion Rolls On

Mel Gibson could make as much as $200 million from The Passion of The Christ, a fantastic return on his personal investment of $30 million to make the film and, the way I see it, a just reward for Gibson having the courage and faith to spend his personal wealth to make a film that Hollywood said would ruin him, but a film Gibson says he felt called to make. Instead of ruining him, The Passion is on pace to become one of the highest-grossing films ever - and Gibson will be prospered for having risked his career and spent his fortune to put a reasonably accurate and powerful presentation of Jesus' crucifixion on film and bring it to millions of people around the world.

You know, if Gibson were to be somewhat selective in Global distribution of this film (Latin America? Phillipines? Eastern Europe?), this could be the first Billion Dollar grossing film?

I don't want to sound like a total asshole, but Jesus is merely a ficticious creature.

Therefore the "Passion" isn't accurate.

I don't believe in God, but you sure sound like a total asshole.
