I enjoyed the Pilate in "The Passion of the Christ" better. The Latin just made him so authentic.

I did too. I don't really see Pilate as the bad guy. He listened to his wife as she cautioned him. In the end, he lets the Jews make their own decision about Jesus, which actually fulfilled Scripture.

Jesus came to save us and Pilate did his part.

If you want to go that route, so did Herod, Satan, Judas and Caiaphas do their parts.

Pilate was a good boy, he was turning his live around
and any way how do you expect a proconsul to afford
to rule without crucifying someone from time to time.
