Rush Limbaugh Show ^ | 2/27/04 | none

[BSunday]

Star of The Passion

[BSunday]

Funny. When he was hit by lightening he said he looked up in the sky and said "You didn't like that take, eh?"

[Socratic]

Boy, are you fast!

[DoctorMichael]

Wow! You're fast!

Listening..........................

[RightWingMama]

Rush's has been great today talking about The Passion. Good show.

[BSunday]

I was previously unsure whether to see this movie, but I have made up my mind I'm taking my wife to see it tomorrow night.

[kid_in_kc]

thanks! listening now :)

[Flora McDonald]

Listening....and thinking how this movie has moved me like no other.

"You can take our lives but you can never take our Freedom!"

[BSunday]

I think it was all that frustrated energy in my fingers being perpetually beaten to the draw by other Freepers !

[Dante3]

LOL

[The Mayor]

I like what he said about getting hit by the lightening.

Looked up and said, "you didn't like that take did you!"

[mewzilla]

Caviezel just referred to this story as the greatest love story ever told. Amen.

[The Mayor]

bring tissue..

Great Movie!!

[chambley1]

He did not want to deviate from the Gospel. Priceless

[Soundman4x4]

I got email from a liberal group I subscribe telling people to pay for a ticket to ANOTHER MOVIE if they want to see the Passion so Gibson doesn't make any money.

All theaters should be informed what they are up to.

[cyncooper]

Thanks. I had turned the radio off, but just turned it back on.

[The Mayor]

that sux!

[Flora McDonald]

Ditto that Amen!

[Born Conservative]

Definitely go. When we were walking out of the theater last night after seeing it, it was amazing how nobody was talking as we were walking out. The movie was phenomenal; even my 11 year old loved it.

[anniegetyourgun]

I'm listening. Wonder why he chose to go on Rush's program....

[BSunday]

Gratuitous post for tagline change

Does the word hypocrite fit here? again.

[js1138]

Forward the email to the movie site. In the meantime, I've noticed that event the multiplexex check tickets at the entrance to blockbuster "R" rated movies to make sure kids aren't sneaking in with tickets to other movies.

[BSunday]

He sounds like the perfect choice to play the part - very humble and soft spoken.

[roylene]

Why - 20,000,000 listeners. That's why!

[Psalm 73]

"...I'm taking my wife to see it tomorrow night"

Bring a box of tissues - even I was choking them back.........

[DoctorMichael]

"...I think it was all that frustrated energy in my fingers being perpetually beaten to the draw by other Freepers!..."

LOL!!!!

[1Old Pro]

Rush said that Mel told him he might never work again. I guess if he has a contract for 5% of the profits he won't have to work again.

[mewzilla]

That is SO petty.

[anniegetyourgun]

I had no idea he had actually (albeit accidentally) been whipped twice in shooting the scene. He says it took the wind out of him and was worse than the worst hit he ever took playing football in school. I can't even imagine. He'll probably wear that 14" scar the rest of his life.

[mewzilla]

Who's distributing this movie, anyone know?

[lsucat]

Thanks for the heads-up.

I've got tickets for Sunday. I really don't like violent movies, but I'm making myself see this one.

[el_chupacabra]

Did I hear him say that if he had it to do all over again, he would not take the role?

Perhaps I'm mistaken.

[Guillermo]

Newmarket

[dawn53]

I got the impression he was listening and just called in.

Rush was very surprised, it seemed.

[BSunday]

He'll probably wear that 14" scar the rest of his life.

Sounds like a seal of approval from Above, kind of.

[anniegetyourgun]

It's certainly wonderful for Rush to have this happen. Though I'm sure that the haters will say it was planned.

[NTegraT]

Icon productions

[1Old Pro]

It doesn't matter how it was arranged or not, it was good to hear him on the program.

[dawn53]

I got the impression he did it because he felt it was the right thing to do.

But, he would not do such a role again.

[mewzilla]

Thanks! Here's an article discussing Newmarket's role if anyone's interested.

[1Old Pro]

Who's distributing this movie, anyone know?

No, I can't remember but heard it wasn't the "usual" distributors.

[cyncooper]

Did I hear him say that if he had it to do all over again, he would not take the role?

Perhaps I'm mistaken.

I didn't hear most of the interview on Rush, so missed that question and answer on this particular program, but I'm pretty sure you are mistaken. I've seen him in other interviews.

[cyncooper]

That sounds more like what I've heard before, and it is quite different than "If he had to do it over again...".

Thanks for the clarification.

[dawn53]

On the other hand, I heard Glenn Beck say that even if you don't think you could stomach the violence, you should go buy a ticket and just not go to the movie in order to support Mel Gibson and make a statement.

[TenaciousZ]

I got email from a liberal group I subscribe telling people to pay for a ticket to ANOTHER MOVIE if they want to see the Passion so Gibson doesn't make any money.

Weird strategy. The film's going to make money, no question, and I doubt this tactic will have a substantial financial impact. God is working in mysterious ways; most important here is that they see the truth onscreen.

[anniegetyourgun]

As a female, I'll never be asked to play the role. But if I were male, I couldn't do it - not even in the church play. In fact, I wouldn't even have let my son (as a baby) play the baby Jesus in a Christmas scene.

I don't condemn those who do (and have two friends who have played the part in various productions), but I wouldn't do it.

Liberals sure are stupid. The theatre will sell you a ticket until all seats are full. If a liberal doesn't buy a ticket to "The Passion" somebody else will. How does buying a ticket for another movie affect sales of "The Passion"?

[Stone Mountain]

Why would anyone care if Rush planned an interview with Jim Caiezel?

[BSunday]

I'm curious as to know why.
