== Sequel Filming ==
=="Woman dies during screening"==
I don't see how this section, while interesting, can possibly be relevant. Firstly, with the total time spent in cinemas and the incidence of death from heart attack, it must happen regularly. Secondly, it says nothing about the film in question. Thirdly, I doubt this has been reported about any other film. The ''[[Daily Mail]]'' says that [[Cate Blanchett]]'s father died of a heart attack in a cinema, but [http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-100132/Cate-Blanchett-life-parenthood-Charlotte-Gray.html doesn't bother to state] which film he was seeing. Fourthly, there is no connection made in the article between the death and the film, except for a vague statement that critics have used the death as an argument against the film. That ''might'' be because of the violence, but certainly the ''official'' sources didn't make that connection. Hence the section really ought to go. [[User:StAnselm|<b>St</b>]][[Special:Contributions/StAnselm|Anselm]] ([[User talk:StAnselm|talk]]) 04:23, 4 September 2011 (UTC)


I am aware that the sequel is currently filming in top secrecy because this was revealed in local Spanish language news outlets a while ago as beginning May 10th for a projected Easter 2020 release, given the movie is being filmed in the same locations as the original film and Gibson has made it a top secret project again. But can we please have direct confirmation the production is actually occurring? I cannot find an English source yet and the original Spanish source is difficult to relocate. Thanks. [[User:Colliric|Colliric]] ([[User talk:Colliric|talk]]) 06:39, 14 August 2019 (UTC)

: Turns out that "sequel is currently filming in top secrecy" actually means "nothing is happening but we want people to think something is happening". [[User:Andrew Englehart|Andrew Englehart]] ([[User talk:Andrew Englehart|talk]]) 01:19, 11 February 2024 (UTC)


== Filming dates ==
===Third opinion===
Based on the available evidence, this doesn't warrant inclusion. It would be worth including if it were used to criticize, say, the level of violence in the movie but that is not the case. Of the three references provided, two are mere news items that reported the death at the time the incident took place and are of marginal value. The third is not available online so we don't know what it says. Regardless, that would be just one reference and probably not a reliable one at that (there appear to be many Catholic Heralds). I suggest removing that section in its entirety. --[[User:RegentsPark|rgpk]] <small>([[User talk:RegentsPark|comment]])</small> 23:30, 7 September 2011 (UTC)
:It has been so removed. Never particularly liked it myself. Always seemed like it was purely for shock value and given undue weight.[[User:Oknazevad|oknazevad]] ([[User talk:Oknazevad|talk]]) 23:39, 7 September 2011 (UTC)


I have failed to locate a reliable source for the dates of filming in Italy, first on location and then in the studios at Cinecitta.
::OK, no big deal. Time to move on. Thanks. [[User:History2007|History2007]] ([[User talk:History2007|talk]]) 01:44, 8 September 2011 (UTC)


The current dates given are incorrect, and the source link is dead. I suspect that the wording of the now-dead non-viewable linked article was ambiguous, possibly referring only to the filming portion in the town of Craco (Basilicata). I do not know how reliable the now-gone source was.
== Edits by [[User:71.239.128.44]] ==


Unless a source is found, maybe with only approximate filming dates (it was Nov. 2002 to May-June 2003) I would like to suggest removing the unsourced and inaccurate dates. [[User:Apollinari|Apollinari]] ([[User talk:Apollinari|talk]]) 02:20, 15 May 2020 (UTC)
The [http://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=The_Passion_of_the_Christ&diff=488443899&oldid=488305787 recent edits] by this user have not been particularly constructive. Will this editor please note that all claims must be backed up by a [[WP:RS|reliable source]] in accordance with Wikipedia's policy of [[WP:V|verifiability]]. More problematic is that the edit is also removing a reference that is used to source a pre-existing claim in the article, which leaves that claim in the state of being unsourced. If the editor does not know how to add sources, another editor can add them for him if he provides them with the text they are being used to source on this talk page.

== Film dub ==
:With regard to the section on the 'devotional writings' just putting a Jesuit's position from the Jesuit magazine 'America' leaves an incredible slant. First off his view of the movie was as a film critic not a theologian. Second every Catholic knows that 'America' and the Jesuits are so anti magesterium that a balanced article would conversly quote the other side which I did w/ a quote from the Cardinal Newman Soc. I assume the author of the magazine quote was taking advantage of laymen, non-Catholics & ignorant Catholics. Either way the deletion of a legit quote doesn't seem Wikipdiesh or can I also assume that my source isn't considered legit? If so please recommend a more palatable reference. & yes I don't know the tech way to set up a footnote on this but either way deleting a cited reference is equally unpalatable


''On February 7, 2017, 20th Century Fox re-released the film on Blu-ray and DVD featuring both cuts, with the theatrical version being dubbed in English and Spanish;[67] this marks the first time the film has ever been dubbed in another language.''
:Regarding the section on ancient languages used under the 'Controversies' section, now this is totally in the relm of purely objective facts of history. As a phd in Roman history and the work I cited, it is well known that Latin was used, albeit in a limited manner which is what I changed the wording from "improbable" to 'limited'. And not only is it well established that some Latin was used in doing business w/ Rome but it's safely assumed Christ himself was semi conversant. To lable this as a controvery belies certain misleadings of the general laity to heap on so called issues w/ the movie from various academic and clerical fields that just don't exist in an effort that through shear weight the public can be brainwashed. Please tell that at least on this totally objective, well established fact on language this can't even be corrected. I'll contact the other administrator as well about this. <span style="font-size: smaller;" class="autosigned">— Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/71.239.128.44|71.239.128.44]] ([[User talk:71.239.128.44|talk]]) 05:55, 25 April 2012 (UTC)</span><!-- Template:Unsigned IP --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

Ok guys we've added more references/cites & even softened some points but our points are in the historic record for both changes & the point at the beginning about Catholics questionning where we added "some" is just modifying another opinion which by the way you said were irrelevant.

*For their benefit I am going to through each part of [http://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=The_Passion_of_the_Christ&diff=489155708&oldid=489129350 their edit], since they don't seem to appreciate the problems with it:
#''scholar and author George Weigal asserts the Church does not know which is true the life of Emmerich is one that practiced the "athleticism of Christ regardless of conjecture'' – This is poorly written and doesn't make any sense. That particular section is discussing the legitimacy of the Brentano text that the film is partially based on, and the edit seems to be a [[Non sequitur (literary device)|non sequitur]].
#'''The Cube and the Cathedral: Europe, America, and Politics Without God', Basic Books, 2005'' – Even if the previous sentence was a valid addition to the article, the reference for it has mutliple problems. It notably omits an author and a page number, which are both vital for the source to be [[WP:VERIFIABLE]]. The reference is poorly formatted too, although if we have all the details another editor can address that problem. For further advice on how to add a reference see [[WP:CITEFOOT]].
#''Patrick J Reilly of The Cardinal Newman Society "found the devotional writings inspiring and historically faithful to the life of Emmerich" and most Jesuit positions outside the magesterium, especially from magazine film critic priests claiming authority in canonical matters. 2/28/04 Cardinal Newman Society Blog.'' – Again, the sentence is poorly structured. What exactly is Reilly stating about the Jesuit position? Regardless, the claim is not properly sourced, and in any case blogs are not reliable sources as per [[WP:BLOGS]].
#''Latin was mainly spoken by the elites to do business with Rome, legions worth of troops and administrators during this early period of Roman administration. Use of Latin ended after Heraclius' reign during the early Eastern Roman (Byzantine) period. While Greek was used more often elite natives certainly were conversant while it's safe to assume Christ was familiar enough to be functional. DB Nagle, The Ancient World'' – Inserting a claim between another claim and the reference that sources it is simply unacceptable. For a start, the new claim is still unsourced, but this type of editing looks deceptive because it is made to look like the new content being added is referenced by the source currently in the article, when this is not the case. If you want to add this claim to the article, it needs to be referenced by a [[WP:RELIABLESOURCE]], and the claim should be added ''after'' the pre-existing claim and source i.e. you should not add a new claim to the article in such a way that a current claim is split from its source.
:Before making any further edits to the article I strongly suggest you propose them here first, by including the exact wording and the source and obtain a [[WP:CONSENSUS]]. [[User:Betty Logan|Betty Logan]] ([[User talk:Betty Logan|talk]]) 15:34, 25 April 2012 (UTC)

== Lightning Strikes ==

the BBC article in question is unattributed (no author) hence unacceptable.

also, the claims are unverified.

furthermore (from the article), this sounds like bollocks: "I'm about a hundred feet away from them when I glance over and see smoke coming out of Caviezel's ears."

== Languages in 1 cent Palistine. ==

The majority of NT scholars would not agree that Greek was the defacto language in 1 cent Palestine. The majority of the native population would have spoken Aramaic. The Roman soldiers latin. Greek would have been only used by the very elite in the society. This is well documented in text by Ehrman, Metzger and others. This part of the article should be reviewed against scholarly works, not doctrine.

== Inexplicable Reverts... ==

{{u|FlightTime}} OK, I don't get your argument about how I didn't cite reliable sources, because I didn't add any new sources in any of my edits on this page at all. That aside, I don't get why you would possibly want to revert all of my edits on this page because they merely edited, updated, or removed some things that needed to be edited/updated/removed (especially my addition of the "Citation needed" tag and the removal of the unnecessary MPAA rating that was out of context and is discussed in a different section anyway).--[[User:Neateditor123|Neateditor123]] ([[User talk:Neateditor123|talk]]) 21:57, 14 November 2018 (UTC)Neateditor123

:I am simply questioning your source. If others think the source is Ok and reliable, then I'm good with it. Stop drama mongering. - <span style="font-family:Trebuchet MS">[[User:FlightTime|<span style="color:#800000">'''FlightTime'''</span>]] <small>([[User talk:FlightTime|<span style="color:#FFD700">'''open channel'''</span>]])</small></span> 22:05, 14 November 2018 (UTC)
::{{u|FlightTime}} What do you mean by "source" anyway? Just wondering as that would probably clear up a lot of issues here. Again, I see nothing wrong with my edits and don't see any reason why they shouldn't remain on the page.--[[User:Neateditor123|Neateditor123]] ([[User talk:Neateditor123|talk]]) 22:43, 14 November 2018 (UTC)Neateditor123

== Sequel Filming ==

I am aware that the sequel is currently filming in top secrecy because this was revealed in local Spanish language news outlets a while ago as beginning May 10th for a projected Easter 2020 release, given the movie is being filmed in the same locations as the original film and Gibson has made it a top secret project again. But can we please have direct confirmation the production is actually occurring? I cannot find an English source yet and the original Spanish source is difficult to relocate. Thanks.

Why is there a category Category:Obscenity controversies in the article? Just because of this part "and some of the crude language used by the Roman soldiers was not translated in the subtitles"? Was the "crude language" really something that caused controversy? Is that really enough of a thing to include such a category? Checking the history, I found that the category was included in [https://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=The_Passion_of_the_Christ&diff=next&oldid=560907509 this edition]. I consider removing that category, as no lewd controversy has been pointed out about the film. The controversy is more related to violent content.

== The Passion of the Christ: Resurrection - spin off ==


:Given that it was added by an IP who hasn't edited since 2013, you'd probably be well within your rights to remove it. I note that the film was criticized for excessive violence, and that there's a subsection discussing that, but whether that constitutes obscenity isn't something I have a strong opinion on.

== Vaporware announcements about possible sequel ==
However, just like ''The Passion'', ''The Resurrection'' is already stirring up controversy. Some are concerned and dismayed that Mel Gibson is going to direct another film, others are worried about the alleged antisemitism in ''The Passion'' may continue in the sequel.<ref>{{cite website |title=Mel Gibson Is Making Passion Of The Christ 2.

I did find a softonic.com update about the vapor-sequel on the Wayback Machine, dated December 2023, but it's very vague and doesn't specify where the info published is coming from. Given that there have been at least a dozen sketchy announcements about a sequel filming in the last few years and absolutely none of them have panned out by the predicted dates that filming was supposedly commencing, I really think that unless an extremely reliable source published some concrete info, there's no reason to clutter up the "Sequel" section with Hollywood-hype press-release leaks to non-notable outlets and authors. Otherwise it will just be a long section of fake announcements from questionable sources.

Sequel Filming

[edit]

I am aware that the sequel is currently filming in top secrecy because this was revealed in local Spanish language news outlets a while ago as beginning May 10th for a projected Easter 2020 release, given the movie is being filmed in the same locations as the original film and Gibson has made it a top secret project again. But can we please have direct confirmation the production is actually occurring? I cannot find an English source yet and the original Spanish source is difficult to relocate. Thanks.

Turns out that "sequel is currently filming in top secrecy" actually means "nothing is happening but we want people to think something is happening". Andrew Englehart (talk) 01:19, 11 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Filming dates

[edit]

I have failed to locate a reliable source for the dates of filming in Italy, first on location and then in the studios at Cinecitta.

The current dates given are incorrect, and the source link is dead. I suspect that the wording of the now-dead non-viewable linked article was ambiguous, possibly referring only to the filming portion in the town of Craco (Basilicata). I do not know how reliable the now-gone source was.

Unless a source is found, maybe with only approximate filming dates (it was Nov. 2002 to May-June 2003) I would like to suggest removing the unsourced and inaccurate dates. Apollinari (talk) 02:20, 15 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I see no reliable sources anywhere for commencement of principal photography on a sequel. I have re-instated the redirect to this article, as decided by the previous discussion. Fred Zepelin (talk) 17:18, 11 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Film dub

[edit]

On February 7, 2017, 20th Century Fox re-released the film on Blu-ray and DVD featuring both cuts, with the theatrical version being dubbed in English and Spanish;[67] this marks the first time the film has ever been dubbed in another language.

The film has a Portuguese dubbed version since 2015 [1] [2]

Category:Obscenity controversies?

[edit]

Why is there a category Category:Obscenity controversies in the article? Just because of this part "and some of the crude language used by the Roman soldiers was not translated in the subtitles"? Was the "crude language" really something that caused controversy? Is that really enough of a thing to include such a category?

I note that the film was criticized for excessive violence, and that there's a subsection discussing that, but whether that constitutes obscenity isn't something I have a strong opinion on.
