Episode Twelve - The Passion of the Christ

Eh... The ending was too predictable. *zing!

Mel Gibson's 'The Passion of the Christ' reviewed by the last two Christian's on the planet who had never seen the film. It's about the final 12 hours of the life of Jesus Christ. Maybe you've heard of Him. So ready your sticks and stones and give it a listen!

We have a special guest this week, as Jon is training for a trip overseas. Our mutual friend/hetero-lifemate Justin, a history major focusing on the Greeks and Romans, joins me with some great historical commentary on the film. Justin is about the most clean cut guy you'll ever meet... and harbors an odd fascination with epic power metal. It takes different strokes people...

It's THE PASSION so what else can I say in this little blurb? Music, news and more...

Notes:

The audio was jacked up AGAIN on this episode, and for that I apologize. A defrag of my hard drive is upcoming! As is the purchase of a new computer... eventually! I didn't think it was as bad this time, or at least not bad enough to redo the whole show. We now have affiliate links all set up though! So YOU can help us buy a new microphone just by using the links! For example... you click on our Amazon link to the right... and buy anything after clicking that link (not just DVDs) and we get a small kickback. If you dig the show, feel free to use the links as it's been all no-budget so far. Maybe I'll eventually pick up a grammar book and actually make some sense.

We at The SuperCandid Podcast in way condone illegally duplicating media. The burned disc that Justin spoke of has been long out of print. "Those industry fat cats try to put a price on my music, but it wants to be free." - KK Slider Right? Just spreading some fantastic music, that otherwise would go unheard.



Tegan and Sara are both identical twin sisters AND lesbians. Just to clarify.

'Deep Throat' is often cited for it's massive success as an independent film. The budget was around $22,000, while the revenue has been estimated anywhere from as low as $100 million to as high as $600 million. I wasn't just being dirty.

Jon wanted these included... and I can't blame him... taken with a sense of humor, they're pretty good. Also, Jon will be blogging about his take on 'The Passion...' in the near future. Stay tuned.

Listener Feedback: An anonymous listener commented on our last show, specifically about the Chick track 'Angels?' that Jon mentioned. Apparently, there is a film called 'Hot Chicks' that is a series of 9 Chick tracts... brought to life! It looks hilarious... so much so that I already ordered a copy. I'm sure you'll hear more about the film here in the future... in the meantime, a link!

Golden Calf! Justin chose 'Unia' by Sonata Arctica, which as he mentioned, twice, has gone GOLD IN FINLAND! And some game called 'Halo 3'... never heard of it.



And Don's mixture of HD-DVD goodness... The Host, 300 and Hot Fuzz.
