A second opinion on the Messiah

<a href="http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/entertainment/3563405.stm">Python Film to Challenge Passion</a>

Life of Brian's being rereleased in America to celebrate its 25th anniversary, but also to "provide some counter-programming to The Passion," according to the president of the Rainbow Film Company. The surviving Pythons are in favor and will help promote the film, and trailers will begin appearing in American theaters on Good Friday.

Now, THAT's funny!

Thumbs up

I'll be there!

(In the theater, not picketing, of course.)


Always look on the bright side of life!

Seems to me, Brian is the logical sequel to The Passion. It shows how people have fucked up the message ever since the crucifixion.
