Moviefone.com'd my way to a 10:40 show Friday night.
Same showtime available for next Sat and Sun (as of 30 minutes ago) but not much else.
I hope it's not a 3-hr ordeal, but I fear not falling asleep.
Oh, wait, that's what those other people said. (Better take a nap.)

I've been fortunate to experience the stations of the cross on several "fourth day" retreats, featuring banners for each station, dramatic readings and flashlights in the dark. As powerful as those have been (and I'm not suggesting such for anyone- just trying to make a point) my mind tends to wander. For instance; like during a boring sermon or a prequel battle scene. (yawn) The Stations of the Cross is important to many people, especially this time of year.
During this film, my thoughts never fled.

I was begging for dialogue. I was so tired of blood. I was so tired of seeing Christ fall to the ground time after time.
I know he got beaten with cat of nine tails and was then dragged to the cross. It does not mean I want to see it though.
The amount of dialogue was at a minimum partially due to the fact that not many of the actors could speak Armaic and Hebrew. (shot in the dark)
Satan freaking out after Christ died was the only scene that made me go "cool". The rest was really boring.

I was waiting for the cock crow too!
Not to mention the Centurion's line. As the scene was progressing I was wondering which guard would proclaim it.
I saw the DVD version, no such luck...

What's all this talk about "floating Satan scenes", though?

When Christ died on the cross, Satan lost.

Still, that's a good thought, the most evil entity in existence defeated like that...even if you don’t believe in the religion.

As a non-Christian, I'll have to refute that, Jordan. I know more about all the messages and mixed messages of the Bible than most Christians out there.
The wanker from Arkansas I talked about in the Pointless Random Thoughts thread... well he was this hardcore Christian fundamentalist who always told us to convert. The funny thing was that my friend and I knew the Bible almost inside out and this dick who was playing evangilical nutcase hadn't even read it once.
