Re: .The Passion of the Christ
I'm debating. I really don't see that many movies in the theater anymore (too long a string of bad theater crowds), so if I do, it has to be worth it. So I guess the question is -- is there really anything to be gained by not waiting until DVD? I mean, I *know* how the story ends . . .

Re: .The Passion of the Christ
Just wanted to make sure you all knew to get there plenty early. I work at a theatre in Atlanta and not only have we had very large crowds (ended up interlocking Wednesday, Thursday and tonight), but also there are no previews before the movie. We have had quite a few people come out complaining because they got there 10 minutes late and had already missed 10 minutes of the film. I believe that this holds true for all theatres, although I have not had an opportunity to talk to anyone outside of our company (Regal Entertainment Group, which consists of Regal, United Artists, Edwards and Hoyts). That said, enjoy it, it's an excellent film.

I think you mean accurate story. It is of course a true story -- Well unless every piece ever written chronicling this event in history is bogus.

I will read the bible passages to get a clearer understanding of what this is all about.
Dan, I hope you have not been offended! Your my main man!

Re: .The Passion of the Christ
I'm reading a book right now called "The Murder of Jesus".. it's a biblical/historical review of the events of the crucifiction... Check it out if anyone is looking for a resource (other than the Bible of course...)

Without a doubt, this movie should be seen in the theaters. This is the first movie that I knew I was going to see again after seeing it the first time. And for someone who doesn't have a money tree in their backyard, that's saying a lot (honestly, I haven't seen a movie more than once in the theaters for many years now, maybe since '99).
Visually, this film is highly detailed, textured, etc. There's so much to see-- from the setting of the film, to the look of the characters themselves-- it's all very textured.
The audio end of the film is no less layered in its presentation. There's a lot to hear and where better than a good high tech theater to hear every little detail.
While most people *know* how the story ends, it's the presentation that really sends this movie above all others on the same subject matter. I'd say suffer the movie crowds and see this film in the theaters first of all.
