Anyone else buy the Passion?

#1 Postby azsnowman » Wed Sep 01, 2004 7:14 am

How many of the estimated 2.5 MILLION copies sold yesterday did you buy of the "Passion of the Christ?" We bought one....at 0730, we went to Walmart and stood in LINE :?: Our WalMart only received 300 copies, needless to say, they sold out by 0840

FINALLY....4 days after buying the DVD, we WATCHED PART of it last night, that is UNTIL we got called out on a search! From what I saw, all I can say is "WOW!"

I reserved a DVD at a local Christian store before it was released but I haven't picked it up yet. I saw it in the theater and this one will be a gift for someone who hasn't seen it yet.

I'm sure I'll get one for myself too. :wink:

We bought it and watched it...TWICE so far.

Debi's only words afterward were, "WOW..."

But, being the "talented amateur historian" I am, I noticed discrepancies...the Latin was medieval, not ancient (but the Aramaic was dead on!); the armor was 200 years too late for the period, and Pontius Pilatus, procurator et pontifex romana, was not nearly as convincing, or ruthless, as portrayed in the film.

Yet, the MESSAGE was powerful...too much so to express herein with mere words.
