I know this isn't just Yahoo, they pull their news off of Reuters. How in the world does this qualify as news at the least. If everyone gets 15 minutes of fame, I'd gladly give up 5 of mine if everyone like this has to give up 5 of theirs.

Jesus Battles Zombies at the U.S. Box Office

On the other hand, I love this headline. I just want to see the poster.

"Jesus vs Zombies
The Battle for Earth!"

Passion and Dawn of the Dead are the same movies. They're both about the undead trying to teach us dumb humans to join them in a better life.

Wasn't that an episode of South Park...

Not to mention that under some thought processess, we follow the big J zombie by eating his flesh and drinking his blood. (I thought Zombie movies usually worked the other way? I guess it is a pretty inventive zombie idea, especially for a 2000+ year old story.)

If I weren't kindof tired, I'd dig up an old "Godzilla vs {Insert Monster Here}" poster and replace Godzilla with Jesus and Megalon or Mothra or whatever with a zombie.

Crappy, but who cares.

The richest guy in the world will be the guy who developes the chip that can filter out ALL info in ALL medias regarding people you NEVER want to hear about ever again! Beware Ben Affleck, Maddona, Paris Hilton, Britney Spears, ect... Soon you will be regulated to the niche markets to where you all so richly deserve to be placed.

By the way, saw the original Dawn when it came out. If you folks don't think that remake after remake after remake doesn't begin to show how creatively bankrupt Hollywood has become then I don't know what to say.

I hate to be the one to point out to you that while "Dawn of the Dead" might be a story that's been recycled for a few decades, "The Passion of the Christ" is based on a story that's around 2,000 years old.

Ha! No comparrison! Next you'll be defending a big-budget movie version of "My Mother the Car!"

The followup headline is equally good:

Zombies Push Jesus from Top of North American Box Office
I just see these zombies shambling across the screen, shoving Jesus out of the way, and saying "braiiiiiins".

Well, not exactly zombies but Jesus has fought Vampires. Fresh from my netflix queue.

You might say he was the original Buffy or something.

sterlingice · 03-21-2004, 04:13 PM

Aww. I can't see it because netflix redirects.
