/christian/ - Christian Discussion and Fellowship

That’s a good meme comic. Is there more?

Why those atheists like to watch movies with the worst kinds of violence and sex, but get all triggered with a movie that tells us about God's love and sacrifice claiming that it is "torture porn"?

How can someone hate so much something that he doesn't believe? I can't understand it.

>>598255

And why does the stupid fedora in the video compare The Passion of the Christ with your run of the mill Christian movie, while The Passion is great technically unlike those other movies? I guess some people are just that biased.

Anyone else going to the movies to see "Paul, The Apostle of Christ"? It looks like a great movie! We've been getting an increase of good Christian movies lately.

>As a movie go-er will it be better than Avengers […], Avatar sequel?

It's sad calling yourself a cinephile and then namdropping consumerist shlock like this

>>598278

That's what happen when your reality is made up of memes

>>598278

You describing /pol/ honestly

>>598244

Passion of the Christ should have been called Jesus Christ, the beating. Guys, idk about you but Passion of the Christ was just stupid. I bet the sequel will be even worse due to the hell thing. For me the best Biblical movie is Jesus of Nazareth.

>>598278

The one group that doesn't belong on that list is the alt right, and it was always a term given to a brand of conservatives by the media.

>>598278

Both extreme ends of the spectrum are ultimately self-worshiping. They have no room in their hearts for the Word of God, both sides are too busy circle-jerking over their own skin color.

>>598311

Kek

Its literally a torture movie

What the fuck is wrong with you niggers

>>598332

See >>598255

Also,

>What the fuck is wrong with you niggers

I can't imagine what it's like to never have a logical argument in your favor.

>>598335

It's what happens when /pol/ goes ban-happy. All of their trash filters down to the other boards. If you point it out, they scream than all boards are born from /pol/ and that /christian/ is just another /pol/.

Then you ask them if that includes /furry/ …

>>598244

>fedora tipping alt-righters

Wat

>>598255

>>598335

I dont like pol. I just say nigger accidentaly when things get too obscure.

Nice argument tho, its a shitty movie of beating a man for an hour or two

Its fucking stupid it doesnt really have any message behind it except pity.

I havent watched it yet though so i hope im wrong.

>>598344

Where do you guys come from?

>>598354

Pity? No, not pity, but the glory and immense love of God.

>>598363

Im sorry but this is just an hour of torture for me.

>>598244

This guy.

>people are doing a movie about the apostle Paul;

>Disney did an animated movie about the first Christmas(dont care if you seen it, or if it was good. Important that is happened, and it turned a profit);

>2 more biblical movies i cant recall atm;

These were honestly surprising.

>>598354

>>598366

It's historically accurate depiction of the crucifixion of Jesus Christ. All the wounds shown in the movie are the same as those on Shroud of Turin.

What Mel Gibson was aiming for wasn't murderporn but historical accuracy. Goes to show how far sick bastards will go in order to project their own perversity onto others.

>>598370

Paul is out in March.

>>598354

WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU HAVEN'T WATCHED IT??

>>598370

>Disney did an animated movie about the first Christmas

Actually that was done by Sony Pictures Animation.

>>598358

Everywhere. Literally everywhere.

>>598263

I definitely am. I trust that Jim wouldn't be in it if it wasn't a truly Christian film

>“James Faulkner is to Paul as Christopher Reeve is to Superman,” says Caviezel. “This guy was born to play Paul. When he was walking around, it was in his behavior. You couldn’t find someone else who organically nails it like this.”

>“In Passion, I was Jesus, the central figure,” he says. “But in this film, as Luke, I (essentially) get to play Aaron next to Moses.”

>Caviezel, who has starred in CBS crime drama Person of Interest since 2011, plans to return in Mel Gibson's follow-up to Passion, which hasn't yet set a production date. He found inspiration in writer/director Andrew Hyatt’s faithful approach to telling the story of Paul, a major figure in Christianity, but has turned down a lot of Bible stories since Passion.

>“It’s like, 'We want to change this, pull that out,' ” says Caviezel. “I’m like, 'This book has been around a lot longer than any of us in Hollywood. I have the faith to believe it’s still good for us now.' That’s one of the greatest things about (Paul). You don't realize it, but it's actually scriptural.”

Sounds good to me!

>>598503

Caviezel is a pretty solid dude, IIRC there is a story of him refusing to do a sex scene with Jenifer Lopez because it would dishonor his wife.

Why do all of these atheists have chinstrap beards?

>>598354

>Its fucking stupid it doesnt really have any message behind it except pity.

Where the fuck I am? /v/?

Every knee will bend to our Lord Jesus Christ, the only begotten son of God. Light from light, true God from true God.

>>598507

And he almost died during the filming of Passion of the Christ, got struck by lighting twice and got flogged for real. Yet he kept going. If anything all the suffering made him get more into the role.

>what do you mean when theres nothing enjoyable about an hour of goreof our lord and savior surely theres nothing we need to to excpet targets peoples emotions: pity ?haha atheist fag lmao haha neckbeard

>>598869

>hasn't watched it

>ignored all posts about it

>still calling it goreporn

You have problems.

>>598870

i didnt called it that because thats a reddit neckbeard term who adds porn on everything. These people are a plagued i swear.

Though id really like to watch it but we know its just two hours of Christ being tortured. I dont like that. Rather watch true detective again :> Cohle is a Christ figure too and hes fun too watch

>>598869

I rewatched the movie last night, so it’s fresh in my mind

1. There is no gore in the movie until the one hour mark, and it’s only two hours long

2. Despite South Park’s criticisms, the movie is interspersed with scenes of Jesus teaching

3. The gore in the movie isn’t excessive or drawn out, like it is in actual gore porn like SAW. It is bloody, but it’s depicting a crucifixion. Despite what Last Temptation shows, crucifixions aren’t bloodless affairs that are finished in a few minutes

4. The movie has the sweetest depiction of Mary and Jesus’s relationship I’ve ever seen

5. The movie ends with the resurrection. It’s not a “snuff film” as people say

>>598873

how long was hte gore exploitation scene?

>>598874

The full scourging scene is the worst in terms of gore, and it’s five minutes long. After that, it’s like any other crucifixion movie but Christ is covered in blood. There’s also an unrated version that cuts out five minutes of gore, that Gibson made for evangelicals who wanted to use the movie to teach but didn’t want to show all the gore

>>598737

Yeah what was up with that? I heard about it but it seems so bizarre.

>>598874

>>598875

Actually, I decided to look it up to make sure I had the time right. The entire whipping and scourging sequence is ten minutes long, and that’s the longest sequence of gore in the movie. After that, there’s a mocking scene where the Romans beat him and place the crown of thorns on his head. That scene isn’t really gory, but it doesn’t offer any relief after the gore we just witnessed. The whipping-scourging-mocking sequence is 15 minutes in length, running from 53:00 to 1:08:00, before the ecce homo scene which truly has no gore at all.

>>598873

>4. The movie has the sweetest depiction of Mary and Jesus’s relationship I’ve ever seen

Whenever I watch the movie, the scene where Jesus was carrying his cross and fell down, and where Mary had the flashback of Jesus as a baby falling down, and where she goes crying to him always gives me the feels. Mel set up that scene perfectly.

>>598880

i dont think i can watch this.

>>598882

also off topic mariejois means mary's joys in one piece and will of the D is inspired by will of God

>>598883

>i dont think i can watch this.

Look man, you can't bitch about this being "Torture Porn" and then refuse to watch it. 10 minutes of violence doesn't ruin the whole movie. At least watch the movie before you start passing judgement about how it's just exploitation

>>598886

Back to reddit friendo

Lets face it its just that

All elements of the movie builds up to the crucifixion

Id watch you plebs get crucified instead

>>598893

>Id watch you plebs get crucified instead

Tip harder faggot

>>598893

>Id watch you plebs get crucified instead

I am not fit to die in the way of my Lord.

>>598389

i think i would cry probably

>>599056

Tears welled up tbh. Every scene with Mary is too much

>>599056

>>599067

The scene on the Via Dolorosa where He meets Mary then gets back up and carries on was too much for me.

>See, Mother, I make all things new!

;_;

>>599071

Always brought a tear to my eye

>>598879

Lightning is viewed as instrument of God but that does not mean that Satan does not use it. I've read a book by italian exorcist that says that he (or his friend, I don't remember, it was three years ago) was almost stoped from performing exorcism because satan "created" storm out of the blue.

>>599749

I knew a guy who claimed to witness African animists calling down lighting on each other by communing with dark spirits that were for all intents and purposes demons even to the animists who worshiped them. So yeah, Satan definitely has the power to pull some meteorological shenanigans

>>599749

*spoopy*

>>599754

I mean lightning itself is easy to create. Especially when you are prince of fucking air.

>>599764

>Especially when you are prince of fucking air.

What?

>>599769

Ephesians 2:2

>>599831

Ah I see

>>598347

Go look at the thread on /pol/ about this film and you'll understand.

>>598250

brilliant comic!

>>598263

cautiously optimistic and quite hopeful.

But even if it isn't brilliant, it will hopefully make enough coin for Sony to keep doing this. I'm sure they can strike gold at least once.

>>598373

win!

>>598370

>>2 more biblical movies i cant recall atm;

"Risen" was one of them. Wasn't gold, but it was surprisingly MUCH better than most Christian movies that have come before it have been. I expect the same from Paul. This could be good.

"War room" was a fair distance from gold, but it was still good enough.
