Ultimate in Hollywood Crapshoots: "The Passion of the Christ" Sequel

"The Passion of the Christ" wasn't as completely awful as perhaps you would predict but Mel Gibson was not apparently deterred by doing more for Christians to do less than anyone since John Smith, he's going to make a sequel.  (Independent:  Mel Gibson is making The Passion of the Christ 2)

Note:  we have no idea if there's the faintest hint of truth to this movie but we know Mel Gibson is not quite as anti-Semitic as the Wehrmacht and looking for respect for him is not realistic.  The movie is much more important as a way to meet Gilbert Gottfried (Twitter) who tells us "Passion of the Christ 2" will be Twice the Laughs, Twice the Fun!


Mel Gibson is using the rationale it's ok to treat Jesus like he came from Marvel Comics and he can come back as many times as Batman.

However, instead of Michael Keaton, this time Jesus will be played by Taylor Swift and "Passion of the Christ 2" will be a musical featuring her songs of infinite personal suffering and such agonizing suffering.  Even better, Adele plays the Virgin Mary so she can sing the movie's soundtrack theme song.  Oh God, it will be so beautiful ... and make so much fucking money.

Note:  "The Passion of the Christ" was a surprisingly non-crap movie but we seriously doubt, assuming this 'sequel' is even true,


Ooh, ooh, here's how to guarantee the movie fails:  get George Clooney to play Jesus.

(Ed:  can Adele still be the Virgin Mary?)

Sure.  He works for her already, just ask him.
