exactly. Not to mention that I would much rather have criterion spend the cash that it would cost to even think about getting this title and put it to better use picking up films that still have no studios to go through to be released.

I *hope* Criterion doesn't release it because I don't want to pay $40 for it.

I hope Criterion releases a $40 version of "The Elders of Zion".

The DVD will cost $200, and anyone who doesn't buy it is going to burn in the eternal fires of Hell.

I'm hoping Newmarket decides to do a 2-Disc Set with:

- DD 5.1/DTS
- Isolated Score
- Mel Gibson/Jim Caviezel Commentary
- Various Documentaries and Featurettes on the Film, the Crucifixion, and the Controversy
- Featurettes on the Use of Aramaic, Sets, Makeup, and Costumes
- Mel Gibson Interviews
- Deleted Scenes
- Photo Galleries
- Passages from the New Testament
- Trailers

Sounds perfect Redux! Also an option to turn the subtitles on/off and a gallery of pics and marketing images would be cool. Add in the official poster artwork for the cover and we're set!

I just hope Mel's dad does a commentary track. I would love to hear more about the Holocaust never happening and the worldwide Jewish conspiracy.

Mel's commentary will be on the disc. It will just be hard to find.

In the main menu, go to the "languages" screen... then select "Speaking in Tongues." (It's right underneath "Yiddish.")

Also be sure to check out the "audition tapes" Easter (er, resurrection) egg:

Do you think anyone got footage of Cavaziel being struck by lightning... on either occasion?

The only thing that'd get me interested is footage of Hutton Gibson introducing the film at the Israeli premiere

I would love to hear a commentary track of Gibson laughing and counting all the money he's made from the movie's theatrical release.

I hear that, included in the DVD's Special Features section, they're going to feature an outtake where Cavaziel walks into the local Days Inn (while on location in full costume and make-up), shows them three nails, and asks them to put him up for the night.

if this was a criterion it would go nicely along with the last temptaton criterion dvd it would make a great 2 dvd set! Think of the advertising - 2 films 2 different directors 2 different visions 1 True Lord! 1 Great Company - One hell of a DVD package!

I saw "The Passion" last night (23rd February)
Go read my post in the movie forum on this subject.

It was a GREAT movie!

Its amazing how much Jesus loves us to give his life for us! That is the overwhelming message I've had in my head since I seen it.

There is a discusion starting over in the movie forum.

God bless you.

And don't forget that they forgot his wake-up call the next morning, so he woke up feeling a little cross.

No freakin way. That would mean player generated subtitles. Imagine how bad those would look on this movie. Subtitles needed to be on the print, for the best overall look.
