Larry King is interviewing the guy from The Passion Of The Christ

[rocktivity]

I think the cable networks are running out of commentators.

1. Sad

[imenja]

2. Mel Gibson?

[rocktivity]

9. No, the guy who PLAYED Christ

He's not a savior, but he's playing one on TV. If the Pope lingers for a few more days, don't be surprised if you see somebody chatting with Father Guido Sarducci.

:headbang:

[imenja]

11. yeah, he was in a movie with Jennifer Lopez too

maybe he can tell everyone about Marc Anthony

Cable news is relentless in filling airtime with nothing

[Radio_Lady]

12. James Caviezel

He's a hottie (can I say that of a man?)

27. He did that movie with Ashley Judd

and Morgan Freeman where he was the whacked-out soldier, too. And I think he was also the homeless guy in Pay It Forward.

[VOX]

13. That would be fundie actor Jim Caviezel.

It's a shame, 'cause he's a pretty good actor. Check him out in "the Thin Red Line," or "The Count of Monte Cristo," not that hysterical, blood-spattered snuff-porn that Mel Gibson made. :grr:

[rocktivity]

15. DING DING DING! KrazyKat, you're our grand prize winner!

...that hysterical, blood-spattered snuff-porn that Mel Gibson made.

LOL!!! That sounds like what I posted right here on DU when the movie premiered: "substitute the Christ figure for a top-heavy blonde, and it's just another snuff film."

18. Well, he's listed as "James" and "sometimes credited" as Jim --

I've seen both those films and reviewed them for my radio station. Did you see him in "High Crimes"? The script wasn't great but he did a wonderful acting job. I just wish he's get a breakthrough role before he gets much older.

25. I LOVE Father Sarducci

He's been my spiritual guide ever since the Smothers Brothers.

[Fenris]

3. Hot Aryan Jesus?

[physioex]

5. I am not Jesus....

But I played him on a movie.....

[physioex]

4. I know WTF...

He has that guy and Deepka Chopra. Is the Deepak Chopra the expert on everything now..... They also had him in the Terry Schiavo media circus.

[onager]

20. Deepak? ARGH!

I can't stand that smarmy gasbag. He's the Benny Hinn of New Agers.

Has he started blathering about how quantum physics will get you to Heaven sooner or anything?

If you want to see just how far Deepak has his head up his Cheney when it comes to quantum physics, do a google on "Victor Stenger."

Stenger's spent his whole career working in quantum physics. He absolutely despises phonies like Chopra and all his ilk. And Stenger DOES know what he's talking about. Like Carl Sagan or Richard Feynmann, Stenger also has the gift of being able to explain quantum physics to us ordinary dummies.

[physioex]

22. I believe you...

CNN is totally screwed up....

[adwon]

29. Hahaha

head up his Cheney, I love it.

[JDPriestly]

6. Why do you watch that junk?

It's like eating at McDonalds. How can you stand it?

[rocktivity]

14. No, I was channel surfing and heard King mention the name of the actor

No disrespect, but I have better things to do than stare at a locked-in shot of Vatican city all night. But you're right, it's junk--especialy on Friday nights. It's 10PM EST now--I'm going to turn on Mike Malloy.

:headbang:

[JDPriestly]

30. Good.

Malloy beats TV anytime.

[Radio_Lady]

32. Malloy is too fiery for me, especially at night.

I have to quiet my body and soul before bedtime, so I go to FM music, usually classical.

[Radio_Lady]

7. Larry had a Schiavo-thon planned. This is a good example of --

how a BIG news story drives out a smaller news story.

[msongs]

8. you mean the splatter film............full of bloody gore......that is

so objectionable to all the right wing xian nut cases? they are supporting a gory splatter film that they would condemn to high heaven if was about anything but you know who? or is that whom?

10. Did he have Pat Boone on again? nt

[queeg]

16. He does a good pope

The Rich Little of the Fundie crowd

[G_j]

17. did he ask him about being struck by lightening?

..supposedly twice while making the film..

[eaprez]

19. Oh Jesus! I'm surprised there are not clocks in the corner of the

screen counting down the hours passed since this "Death Watch" began. Unbelievable. I'm looking for a pool to buy into...pick the time of death, win some cash.

[Bluebear]

21. Next up: Racheal Ray makes "Popecorn" balls

..."And you can use an upside down ice cream cone as a papal hat! Cool or what?"

(CNN producers are thumbing through that guest book, frantic to find the next stretch act!)

[Spazito]

23. Larry King has been despicable for so long now

I always expect the lowest of the low kind of program from him and, surprise, surprise, he NEVER disappoints me.

He is simply there to do the bidding of the AOL/Time Warner and collect his paycheck, principle be damned, assuming he ever had any.

[UTUSN]

24. The Weasel Dude? n/t

[rocktivity]

26. No, the guy who played Robin

"Holy deathwatch, Larry!"

:headbang:

[OneBlueSky]

28. "I'm not a real Savior . . . I just play one on tv" . . . n/t

.

[thedevilinthedetails]

31. I thought the Passion was an good movie

Historically accurate? Nah. Anti-Semetic? Sure, I can see why Jews would certainly think so. Faithful to the Bible? Depends on which version you like to read.

BUT, that being said, the cinematogrophy was great, the acting was good, the blood was red and pouring. It was a moving picture. Over the top, bloody, gory, no basis in reality, exactly what I look for in a movie. It was an excellent followup to Gladiator.

[Radio_Lady]

33. I didn't see it, and didn't review it. Just too gory for me --

[Melynn]

34. All the commentators are taking time off after the Terri marathon

Besides there is nothing controversial about the Pope dying. Let the amateurs deliver the Pope's pre-death eulogy.

[onager]

35. Did anyone ever hear that comedian...

...spoofing Larry King? He does a bit about Larry interviewing Adolf Hitler and Eva Braun:

"And how's the re-decorating going at Berchtesgaden, Eva? Those are LOVELY drapes..."

[rocktivity]

36. I opened this thread nearly fourteen hours ago

as the Papal Deathwatch Guest Commentator Crisis moves into its second day.

Nobody likes a tease, your eminence.

Next up after the break: Sinead O'Connor!

37. Since he 'played' Jesus, he's an expert on the Pope???

You just can't take Larry King seriously whatsoever. He's an entertainment reporter at best.

[rocktivity]

38. Keep an eye out for Whoopie Goldberg, then

She played a nun--twice!
