IT’S ONLY A FUCKING MOVIE! ok? the passion is a MOVIE, directed by the guy who starred in mad max. alright? yesterday the coming onslaught of “the passion” was front page news in both the post and the daily news. today, opening day, it’s news still.  people are all worked up, pro, opposed, too violent, beautiful, “it made me cry, i’ll never be the same” blah blah blah. i’ll say it one last time for those of you whose heads are so far up your asses you didn’t hear: IT’S A MOVIE. maybe a decent one, maybe not, but one day it will be relegated to the same sorry fate as all others. one day it will be a $9 super saver dvd filed somewhere between paint your wagon and pee wee’s big adventure. one day it will be edited to fit into a u.p.n. time slot and crammed unceremoniously between commercials for tampons, jock-itch cream, and fried chicken. you may not see the possible folly in naming another human as your god, or rigidly following and worshiping a book, but surely you know what a movie is. right?
