Just proves how out of touch the Entertainment Industry is with the real world.

Talk about full circle. Back in Roman times Christians were controversial, and now again. Once more the pagan aristocracy dislikes them.

"Ever" is not that long in 'Movie Time' since 'motion pictures' was invented in the late 1880's.

Ergo, these EW 'geniuses' must be really STOO-PID^™ as the "most controversial film ever" is undoubtedly D. W. Griffith's, "Birth of a Nation" in 1915.

It was a Major hit, a "Blockbuster" in holly-weird speak and Klan membership subsequently skyrocketed. Now that is "controversial".

What amazes me is that everything Christianity/Jesus
stands for is GOOD! Why would that cause so much
controversy instead of being celebrated to the hilt?

Everyone ought to see the Passion.

"The Last Temptation of Christ," "Too graphic"
(Have you seen this week's cover of Newsweek? Hint, it's not of 17 heads in fruit boxes.)

"United 93"...... "Too Soon !"

"Fahrenheit 9/11" "Very Timely, Award winning"
(Produced almost 3 years ago)

"The Jersey Girls"...."How dare we question the motives of these War Widows?"

"John Kerry"............" How dare we question the patriotism of this War Hero ?"

"Bob Kerry"...."How dare we accuse this War hero of slitting the throats of innocent civilians?"

"John Murtha"...."How dare we accuse this War hero of aiding and abetting?"

I could go on....for years.

Well, at least the "Last Temptation" made it to the list. Frankly, I think that was far more controversial. After all, "The Passion" was a movie that was quite well received by the people who actually saw it, and it did NOT try to offend the members of a religion, unlike the Last Temptation

Entertainment Weekly is just showing their anti-Christian/Christianity bias.

It was an excellent movie. Told it like it was.

[MNJohnnie]

Ever heard of the "Last Temptation of Christ"? Ah but that only pisses off Christians so it not "Controversial" to the sleaze Left.

EW Ranks 'Passion Of The Christ' As Most Controversial Movie Ever

Move over, Leni.

Odd. The film 'The Passion of the Christ" portrays the last moments of one of the most controverisial events in history.

I fail to see why this is a surprise.

Where did "Birth of a Nation" land, or did they forget that one?

[FreedomCalls]

Song of the South is not controversial?

Good. Otherwise it would've been a failure.
