Quacker Posted March 6, 2004 Report Share Posted March 6, 2004 One popular explanation has been that Jesus died of cardiac rupture.That's what I've heard, that he died of a broken heart. Knowing his character, the sins that were placed upon him, and how he loved us all nonetheless, that makes sense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EKen132 Posted March 6, 2004 Report Share Posted March 6, 2004 I think Peter was eventually crucified on an X cross. It's supposed to be even more painful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quacker Posted March 6, 2004 Report Share Posted March 6, 2004 Actually, he was upside down (IIRC), which IMO would be even worse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caedus Posted March 6, 2004 Report Share Posted March 6, 2004 Yes, according to the bible Peter was crucified upside down, because he thought he wasn't worth it to die the same death as his master.Did you knew that a person on a cross now and then tried to rest by "standing" on his legs. That person then wasn't able to hold this out for long and then would be "hanging" again. This way ensures maximum suffering over a long period of time. I just had to describe this, sorry .I'm sure I will see this movie sometime, but maybe not in the theater. Anyway, it takes a while untill it will be released here in The Netherlands.

Quacker Posted March 7, 2004 Report Share Posted March 7, 2004 IIRC - If I Remember CorrectlyI think you're right, someone was crucified like that...maybe Thomas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CodeOptimist Posted March 7, 2004 Author Report Share Posted March 7, 2004 I believe nearly all the apostles except John died horrible deaths.. but that's a bit off-topic now isn't it Just curious: how come lots of you are going to wait for the DVD?

kor Posted March 8, 2004 Report Share Posted March 8, 2004 It was Saint andrew who was crucified on an X cross; this is why to this day the Scottish flag has an X on it (seeing as Andrew is Scotland's patron saint). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CodeOptimist Posted April 12, 2004 Author Report Share Posted April 12, 2004 Ok, I just saw it yesterday, finally! I have to say, I loved it. I think it was amazingly done.Pontius Pilate stuck out to me - I think the actor/character was great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheCobra1 Posted April 12, 2004 Report Share Posted April 12, 2004 I think Mel Gibson mad about half a billion or more on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CodeOptimist Posted April 12, 2004 Author Report Share Posted April 12, 2004 Personally, I don't think he cares how much money he made on it... he said he made it because the story impacted his life tremendously. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mythos_Ruler Posted April 12, 2004 Report Share Posted April 12, 2004 Hmmm, then perhaps he should give the money to charity? What would Jesus have done with the money (?), after all.Either that, or give me some. All I ask for is a measly $10,000... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EKen132 Posted April 12, 2004 Report Share Posted April 12, 2004 Code, I also liked Pontius Pilate in the movie- it makes you think, he was only a man who desired to do the right thing. If someone desires to do good, the opportunity won't be taken away from them.BTW I wasn't a huge fan of teh score- what do you guys think of it who saw it?

CodeOptimist Posted April 13, 2004 Author Report Share Posted April 13, 2004 I liked the score actually, especially the driving music they played during the credits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam Posted April 13, 2004 Report Share Posted April 13, 2004 I have not yet had the opportunity to experience the Passion of the Christ. But I hope that I will soon be able to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Argalius Posted April 13, 2004 Report Share Posted April 13, 2004 How come? I don't really like the story. how come? I don't really like the type of it. It isn't my style.And don't ask me again 'how come'! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uppy Posted April 14, 2004 Report Share Posted April 14, 2004 I have not seen The Pasion of Christ but I heard it was THE best movie my brother has ever seen so in other words it was great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
