C.V. of the Christ

It looks like J.C. has done more work than Ron Jeremy.
Nevermind coming back. He never left.
Hollywood royalty: Jesus Christ.
He's good. He's been played on screen more than Hamlet.

Jaws Versus Jesus

Here is an interesting link I happened to find on atomfilms:

http://uploads.atomfilms.com/clip.aspx?key=73A0DEBF8E7DD810

A nice quick animation.

link

Apparently Zeitgeist can be viewed at this link:

http://www.zeitgeistmovie.com/

It's two hours, the first bit is silly blackness, and the narrator has a bit of an annoying smug voice you want to kill, but you get over it and the content is worth sitting through.

Then let me know, point for point, where it is incorrect. But so far on other sites I haven't heard any intelligent debuke. I'll work on my own, maybe something about Star Wars being a mess when it isn't The Hidden Fortress, Flash Gordon, departure, initiation, return, repeat if necessary.

Zeitgeist

One of my sisters mailed me a copy of this doc. It will play upon your nerves. Over only a few hours I've run into someone suggesting "idiots" buy into it, but that is not quite the same as responding with a logical counterpoint for the arguments.

Joseph Campbell's work had pointed out some similar qualities between gods through the ages, but this movie lays it out in a spoon-fed way that is actually effective in its thesis that suggests historic Jesus was invented. I won't go so far as to say that; it is no secret that the council of Nicaea coordinated celebrations like Christmas and Easter to appropriate to the pagan seasons already in place and that J. C. has been co opted by supposed followers over the years for unacceptable reasons.

I haven't really digested this yet, and frankly I can't resist integrating it into my movie now; I can't just ignore it.

If you happen to get hold of Zeitgeist, be patient with the extended introduction which is merely audio clips over black and is perhaps the weakest aspect of the movie. The arguments are strong enough and interesting enough once they get going that the non-theistic view as casual fact over melodramatic black screen is a little cheesy. And yes, I'm perhaps using what some call a non-word in cheesy but you do know what I mean by it so it stays.

Meanwhile, I'd actually like to see Zeitgeist intelligently answered point for point and proven wrong if anyone can do that.

The Tracey Fragments Re-Fragmented

The Phantom Fragments (part 1 of 2)

Re-Fragmented by “Pope William” using free software toconvert from QuickTime and ending up with only 40percent of each take, lots of slates and, well, fragments of Bruce McDonald’s footage but found a start, middle, and end with a few transitions which may work.

The Phantom Fragments (part 2 of 2)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P3mVoU2LacQ

Welcome

The main thrust of this blog is to chart progress of a film called "The Fashion of the Christ," first written in 2004 around the time when Mel Gibson's film The Passion of the Christ made the idea timely and relevant. The anonymous writer-director instead made an animation called Jaws Versus Jesus, which has been screened and uploaded in various forms, and attempted to shoot a feature in four days with actors who turned out to be in school and working which did not allow for optimal conditions to rehearse and shoot under a time crunch. The footage was made into guitar picks and has at last brought joy to the world. Personal tragedy in 2006 put the "Fashion of the Christ" project in limbo, and then in 2007 the Vatican announced that limbo no longer exists. This effectively freed the project which is now going to begin casting as a low budget satire in Toronto. The role of a false and commercialized Jesus has already been cast and the lead role of Jesus H. Christ the actual, swear-to-God Messiah who confronts the pretender and all that is done in His name will require a black actor who looks 33 and either has a beard or can be given a realistic one. If you know of any as yet undiscovered possible black variation of Jesus who has a certain charisma and something in the eyes let me know so this person can audition. We are talking about a very small scale production but it will be shown around. Other roles to be called for later, but this has to be, um, nailed down first.
