Woah, didn't see Thursday coming. Unlike Jesus.

blerbaberpaterb

hahaha funny someone made a comment in the Grinch video yesterday about how Christmas isnt really about any of those thing and people forget its about Christ.

Mike W

So happy to see Klaus on there

TheLeftPecOfTheLord

Oh man Passion of the Christ, perfect viewing for the holiday season 😅

blerbaberpaterb

but also, having Christ, the Devil and Santa in 1 week is wild lmao.

Brian Wolf

The passion is a no from me.

paul rai

Simone may need counseling after the Passion.

blerbaberpaterb

he sent himself to himself so he can be sacrificed and save us from.. himself 🤷‍♂️

Sir_Robert

“Shake n bake, and I helped!” 🤣🤣

Maura Gillies

Never seen Passion... Ready to get traumatised with company 🤷‍♀️

Mikebdrx

I know it’s probably already too late for Christmas movie suggestions but I’ll list them anyway. Scrooged ( Bill Murray) A Christmas Carol, has many versions but the one with Sir Patrick Stewart. Jingle all the Way ( Arnold Schwarzenegger

Mike FromOz

Listen, when you're a deity in triplicate, there is going to be some crossover to be expected.

Chad Daunhauer

Passion is a terrible movie. Just my opinion, so if you don’t agree, keep your hate to yourself. Klaus is great though.

blerbaberpaterb

it does have a big following though, and thats not a pun lol. it literally gets big views when channels do it.

Potsi

Jesus never got the makings of a varsity athlete.

Chad Daunhauer

Yeah I can see why it would be a popular reaction. I’ll probably watch the reaction too.

Greg Johanson

Passion and klaus the same week is crazy work

blerbaberpaterb

yeah once in a while there may be a movie i personally dont like, but i can see how it can get a lot of views. and i like S&G so, id still support it. at least with the youtube upload.

blerbaberpaterb

it likely will get a lot of views though, and i like S&B so even if its not for me, gonna still support.

Matthew Richson

I’m here for Klaus any day. Great movie.

Chad Daunhauer

I would say more of an Easter watch but I also get the sarcasm

Jarad Cline

Wasn’t expecting the Passion of the Christ. I appreciate you both reacting to it though. As a Christian, it always been a tough watch, but well worth it.

2026-09-24 15:00 Passion is Mel Gibson's antisemitic movie. It's a disgusting movie.

Chad Daunhauer

I’m 100% onboard for gore/torture porn as long as it’s a fun movie. Passion is far from that though

Anna Kyruin

Also pretty explicitly anti-gender-queer considering how they chose to portray Satan.

weyland1000

Passion of the Christ on my birthday December 11th . Excellent 👍

Jay

Neither G or S strike me as believers, I may be wrong. But I hope they recognize Passion for what it is, torture porn disguised as religious epic under a blanket of christian/anti-semetic propaganda. It's despicable.

Alexrandom

I really don't agree with most people's opinion in the comments about the passion of the Christ. Not the best Mel Gibson, that's for sure but really not as offensive as the media made it appear at the time. Mel Gibson is a very flawed human being and that's what's appealing to me. Hope you find the film interesting 😉

Felreign

Really hoping to see Muppet Christmas Carol this year, or at least on a poll

FranciscoGios

Passion of the Christ, the interpretation of the Devil is pretty good. Also Simone better bring her wits.

blerbaberpaterb

curious to see what S&G thinks. hopefully theyve already watched it, so they dont go in with influences from either side of what would undoubtedly be heated debates.

JayF

Passion of the Christ is an interesting choice. I'll just say that, even as a christian myself, I find it very difficult to revisit parts of that movie. It doesn't pull its punches. I can already see George apologizing for something he said or a question he asked during this one. Don't sweat it, dude. As a non-believer you're supposed have doubts and questions. No offense taken. Oh and if I'm not mistaken this is your third reaction to something Mel Gibson directed (Braveheart, Hacksaw Ridge). I hope this means we will be getting one to Apocalypto soon as well. I would also like to recommend "The Man Without a Face" (1993) which he also stars in. As for movies he's just acted in, I highly recommend "Conspiracy Theory" as your next one. It has what is IMO his best scene as an actor. It also has Patrick Stewart so it will be easy to convince Simone. :)

Jay

I've no issue with gore porn, I'll be watching Terrifier 3 every Xmas for the foreseeable future 😂 I have major issues with a noted anti-semite making a film designed to rile up a certain brand of hard line christians. I live in Ireland, they took us to see that film in school, we were 13-14 at the time. There were kids in my class absolutely traumatized, but it was all good because we had to see that shit to fully appreciate Jesus' sacrifice..... Fuck right off!

funky weapon

Passion of the Christ is a hell of a pull for a Christmas movie lmao

funky weapon

The story of Jesus is antisemitic. You can't make this stuff up.

Karl Ries

I was thinking the same thing. It was 2nd on last year's poll and they've already gotten to two of the others on that list that were out-voted. Not that last year's poll is still even necessarily relevant, but if they're not going to utilize the feedback, outdated as it is, perhaps they should do an updated Xmas poll.

John

Conspiracy Theory is a fun watch and adds meta-context to a line from Julia Roberts in Nottinghill

John

Given this time of year. I second Scrooged and A muppet Christmas Carol. I would also recommend The Long Kiss Goodnight and Hero (1992)

Ginger

Very much looking forward to saturday. Very much going to skip Thursday. :D I love the variety of this channel.

Archive23

For a second there, I thought Karlach was on for Saturday. 😂

Joel

People aren't used to being shocked by the brutality of the Crucifixion

Mike W

Not sure if it's the intended reason but with how divisive polling can be I'm liking the lack of Christmas movie polling. Just pick the ones you want to watch.

Will Sofer

I’d argue that almost everything we associate with Christmas (especially the parts that everyone likes) have far more to do with Saturnalia, Dies Natalis Sol Invictus, and Yule… Just with a surface-level Christian veneer.

Tom B

Couldn’t have said it any better!

Tom B

Or it’s rather about what we choose to make it

Tom B

Definitely skipping passion can’t support anything Mel Gibson does

G P

Eyes Wide Shut is a great Christmas movie

Erik Lepe

Passion and Tenacious D in the same week is a crazy combo lmao

bfunk3778

Can’t believe you’re doing the Passion of the Christ. It’s notoriously anti-Semitic and directed by a notorious anti-Semite Mel Gibson.

Tall Paul

Passion of the Christ at Christmas might well be George 's peak "oops, this isn't my culture" moment

Max Rinaldi

I'm not sure Simone and George's video could be anything near "supporting Mel Gibson". Same about us watching the video.

Tom B

Idk buying his movie and providing views seems like supporting him, but hey that’s just an opinion we all have them

blerbaberpaterb

i can see the very straight forward logic. its Christmas, theres a movie about Christ. lmao

blerbaberpaterb

people always underestimate how little other countries care or think about American celebrities and culture. MG might be notorious in the US but more likely than not, people outside the country seldom think about him. if at all.

blerbaberpaterb

pretty sure they torrent all their movies anyways.

JoshGrobansDryMouth

Because who needs that? lol. I grew up Christian and was made to watch that in theaters. It’s oppressive and pointless.

Alexrandom

It's art. Nobody needs it but someone decided to make it and I decided to watch it. Many people did. You can dislike it, hate it, despise it. I have no issues with that. I'm not even going to argue the movie is good or even worth our time. But I'm glad it was made because the more art there is in the world the happier I am honestly. Even if it makes me feel like shit sometimes.

BellaBlue

The rare no watch week for me...so I'm gonna do some random requests to ease the pain..haha... - The Piano (1993) - Labor Day (2013) - Julie and Julia (2009) - The Super Mario Bros. Movie (2023) - Jackie (2016) - Never Let Me Go (2010)

TexasNight

Yeah.. I might watch TNG but that's it this week for me as well. I am a relatively new Patron, so at least there is a large catalog of older stuff to watch. I am still perplex that they were not able to get into The Expanse.. Such a great show.

Ari Ramirez

Oh man the whiplash from Passion of the Christ to Tenacious D

Nate Terry

Passion of the Christ is not antisemitic folks....get a clue. The death of Jesus has been around for 2000 years(whether you believe in it or not). associating the story with jew hatred is plain stupid. As far as Mel goes, he said mean things while drunk....have any of you ever heard him say a negative thing about jews sober? no you haven't. He's atoned for that ever since, whether you continue to skewer him for it is irrelevant(especially since all actors "liked" and "disliked" have dark sides). Personally, it's a heavy movie to watch and really isn't a Christmas movie...more geared towards Easter time....Christmas is associated with the Birth of Jesus. They will definitely need to rest after lol.

Brandon Meng

+1 The Piano, fantastic movie

Max Carter

I love how mad religious folk get when a movie even vaguely critical of religion is even in their vicinity. Anyone thinking Passion of the Christ is anti semitic doesn't understand it clearly. I don't even like the movie that much but it definitely isn't anti semitic it's just unflinching. turns out religious people have done a lot of messed up stuff in history that's all... Regardless Apocalypto is a far better Mel Gibson movie

Pete Luhtaniemi

Oh fucking YES!! "'Cause it's the pick of destiny, child. You know where we'll be rockin' 'cause it's fucking insane!"

Chase Schleich

Well, I'll be here for Tenacious D so at least there's that.

Chase Schleich

Yeah, not a good week. I'll probably watch Tenacious D, but other than that, it's all a pass

Jeff I.

Passion of the Christ is gonna be a wild one. I'm curious to hear George's take, considering he didn't grow up steeped in Christian beliefs/mythology like most Americans. Really looking forward to Klaus too!

Jeff K.

Yeah, second week in a row where I don't really have any desire to watch anything on the slate. I mean, I might watch Pick of Destiny because I haven't seen it since it was in the theater. But holding out hope for a bit more that's more in my wheelhouse soon. (In the meantime, obviously, happy for the people who enjoy these movies and shows.)

Wormtongue

Will Simone enjoy Passion of the Christ… I doubt it.

zona999

Tis the season....for some anti Semitic tropes!

Jay

"He said mean things while drunk" First off, that's not the only story out there. Yeah, those other ones are alleged but I've seen that video (I don't believe being drunk comes close to excusing it btw), so I fully believe he's referred to Jews as "oven dodgers", for example. Secondly, Mel Gibson is part of some nutty sect of Catholicism that reject the mainstream Church. One of the reasons is the Second Vatican Council's decision to modernize the church in the 60s, part of that being to actively discourage antisemitism rather than promote it. The only leeway I give MG is that he was born into antisemitism, his dad is an absolute scumbag. You say he's atoned for it. Even if that's true, Passion was made at a time in his life when he was fully on board with that nonsense. And seeing as he's still part of a church where antisemitism is essentially official doctrine, I seriously doubt his beliefs have changed.

Emily G

Klaus! I’m excited 🙌

James

A story of a Jewish messiah being mocked, spit on, and brought to Gentiles by Jewish people be crucified, where is the anti semitisim? From the story I remember, he died for both the gentiles and Jews.

Jihad Lee

I loved Passion Of The Christ, myself still being Christian, i saw it in the theatres as a kid. My dad took us to watch it because he wanted us to get glimpse of what Jesus most likely went through. I get people have their opinions about Gibson but i still think he is a great filmmaker. I have no problem separating his art from his personal views. If im not mistaken George and Simone have reacted to multiple Mel Gibson films, so i dont get why this is where some people draw the line with this movie. Its gonna be a great reaction and i love seeing people of different cultures react to a film about a religion they might not know much about.

Opti_Frog

The Passion of the Christ came out when me and a friend went to the cinema constantly, so i actually saw it on the big screen. It is, without a doubt, the most emotionally manipulative movie i've ever seen, and only interesting as a cultural artefact.

Thirty Year Old Mulberry Field

I’m just sitting here chuckling as I’m reminded that Mel Gibson got a crazy number of people to watch a subtitled gore flick, and for a brief moment my tastes were in line with the public. And I’m looking forward to the D & “Klaus”.

Alexrandom

100% get that. To each their own 🙂 Personally I don't avoid movies if I think the director is problematic but I do avoid buying their stuff. For example I watch movies by Roman Polanski but I wouldn't give him money. I have no problem forgiving people for past mistakes if I genuinely believe they changed but there's a limit 😅

Jihad Lee

Also i would like to add, of course its pretty much a gore flick. Its a gore flick but there is a reason for it. This is what Jesus went through. Being nailed to a cross isn't suppose to be nice. Jesus was tortured. What did people expect?

Jihad Lee

i understand and i can agree with your opinion.

Jay

When I'm watching Chinatown, I'm not thinking about Polanski's misdeeds. But that would not be the case of I was watching Roman Polanski's Lolita. It's similar to my feelings about Mel Gibson/Passion, just uugghh (no issue with G & S watching it though). Same applies to a film like Manhattan. But like yourself, I can still enjoy films like Lethal Weapon and Mad Max.

Jihad Lee

Yeah the Bible is pretty much for every type of person. It has themes of Adult oriented stuff, like love, sex, and murder. But also has a lot of themes that are directed towards kids, but then the themes turn really dark when you get to the New Testament. And especially Revelations. It’s either the scariest book of the Bible for people or the happiest book depending on how you see yourself making it to heaven or not.

michael denny

I see the Passion as historical as opposed to religious context. Raised catholic (no longer practicing for personal reasons) I can separate the historically probable from religious dogma. That being said this movie is a hard watch at least it was when I was 16. It will be interesting to watch again now that I'm much older.

michael denny

that's why I used probable not accurate.

Maddie

Simone is going to be wrecked with Klaus

Jeff K.

Would love to see y'all go down a Daniel Day Lewis rabbit hole in the future. Last of the Mohicans is the main one I wanna see, but after Popcorn in Bed watched In the Name of the Father recently, absolutely need to see y'all react to that one. What a movie.

dansoddity

I know very little about Passion of the Christ, or maybe should I say, I've pushed so much of the indoctrination that came from growing up Christian out of my mind, but might watch purely out for it's cultural relevancy at the time. I just remember as a 10 year old being dragged to church and they'd have lyrics up for Christian rock songs they'd play mixed with shots from that film. Put me off since. Otherwise, I'm definitely down for Klaus! Have friends who worked on that film and was privy to some behind the scenes material on it at the time that blew my mind as a fledgling animation student. I think it has a similar importance, in terms of style, to that of the Spider-verse films.

Steve kephart

As a Christian myself, I completely agree with your sentiment. And I also agree with A Man Withouth a Face. I rewatched it recently and it really hods up. Mel Gibson did an amazing job in it. I also did Conspiracy Theory, but that one I didn't enjoy as much. Ransom might be a better Gibson thriller for them to watch. That one will wreck Simone. But then, there are so many other better thrillers they need to get to. Like continuing the Tom Clancy movies.

Jay

Yes, I know. I was making a point, hence the "Roman Polanski's Lolita". If I thought he directed it, I would have just said Lolita. I'm saying if Polanski made Lolita, or a film dealing with similar subject matter, I would not watch it.

JayF

Well, if it helps, the movie really isn't about the church so there's nothing you'd need to answer questions about. I skip a good half of the stuff that G&S react to these days but stick around because their reaction/cost ratio is so good that even cutting my viewership to 50% is better than anyone else out there. So I'd just encourage you to skip this one if it's going to bother you. I will say though that there is more to Gibson than just the bad stuff. If RDJ defends you to an audience of millions of people, you can't be ALL bad - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_AAJuynxnTQ

Mikey Sea

Pardon if I ramble a bit; my 2 cents. I'm going to watch the Passion Of The Christ. I passed when it came out originally in the theater. I consider myself a cultural Christian, and I went to a Lutheran church and Sunday school until I was 13 when I told the pastor before confirmation that I didn't really believe all this stuff; at the time I didn't really understand why I didn't. I like most of the things that are attributed to Jesus, but my problem has always been more logistical; like, why would a benevolent, omniscient, God create Lucifer, or set up the Garden Of Eden in the first place? He knows how it's all going to play out, so why choose all this mayhem that we're all stuck with? And the offer is, essentially, if you don't believe it on ancient "evidence" well, that's ok, because we all have free will, but then, not believing this will result in eternal torture. Doesn't sound very loving to me for finite crimes; created sick....but then ordered to be well, as Christopher Hitchens put it. Lastly, I'm expected to believe that God/Jesus, sent himself to Earth to sacrifice himself, to himself, to save us, from himself. That's a lot of burden to carry for simply being placed here without consent. That's how I see it now, but I am always open to having my mind changed. Always.

Opti_Frog

I hope you don't mind me saying this, but there is a big difference in believing in the resurrection of Christ and believing in the Big Bang. Belief in the the Big Bang is based on observation and evidence. This is not equivalent to believing something on faith.

Opti_Frog

@Mavs What calculations did you do to come to the conclusion that "the odds of that are astronomical"?

Opti_Frog

@Eric Parler Science relies on evidence, not proof. Science never deals in 100% certainty. God of the gaps remains a flawed argument. Every gap in our knowledge we filled pushed god further and further into a corner, and the origin of the universe is where god makes his last stand. What if we fill that gap with knowledge as well? To paraphrase Tim Minchin: Every mystery ever solved has turned out to be not magic.

Philipp Roensch

I'm not here to debate Christianity, I just don't like Mel Gibson. But give me the Tenacious D and Satan before cozy Santa time. (I will not correct phrasing on that.)

Rhiannon

Klaus!!!! YAYYYYYYYY

Opti_Frog

I'm only going to reply briefly to both of you in one post, because at least one of you is using a Gish gallop method of arguing. I can't possibly address everything you've brought up. Mavs, i'm simply saying that without knowing what caused the Big Bang, calculating the odds of it happening is impossible. For all we know, Big Bangs create new universes every second. Eric, at no point did i say anything about a "complete argument for atheism." I didn't even mention atheism. All i did was point out that you were using the God-of-the-gaps argument, and that it is a flawed argument. And i can assure you, science is absolutely working on those deeper questions. Now that i see your post, i understand the ChatGPT comment. I'm not going to trash ChatGPT. It's a very useful tool. I would recommend using it in conjunction with more traditional sources, like Wikipedia.

Mikey Sea

Lots to read thru, here. Appreciate the replies and the civil tone.

Adam K

From Dr. Seuss to Passion…..now that’s a choice. Not necessarily a great choice, but…….a choice. See y’all next week.

JD Nevesytrof

It's a very funny comedy. The Mel Gibson one I mean.

Timothy Peterson

No, no they won't tell you that. People who claim to be scholar will.

Timothy Peterson

Will, you arguing that tells us that you don't actually study history, just Reddit and YouTube videos.

Timothy Peterson

Man, just the comments alone were highly amusing.

Taran Gingery

Regardless of what you think of the Passion, you gotta admit, the score by John Debney is pretty epic.

Opti_Frog

Mavs, before i delve just a little bit into the historicity of Jesus (since it seems we've stopped talking about beginnings of universes), let me be clear that i never meant to accuse anyone of being dishonest. When i mentioned gish galloping i just meant an overload of information that can't be addressed in a reasonable amount of time. And it wasn't you. ☺️ There might have been a person that could be called Historical Jesus. I don't really care. Even if there was absolute evidence that there was a Historical Jesus, it wouldn't alter my world view in the slightest. And i don't think it has to do with being stuck in ways, for either of us. It has to do with what kind of evidence and arguments we find credible. Once you're convinced of something, it can take a LOT to shift that conviction. And before any character from religious myth could interest me, i'd need to be convinced that a being like a god could even exist. I was indoctrinated to Christianity from childbirth, but when i got older my mind found more satisfying answers about the world away from religion. I don't have a higher education, but i have a basic understanding about science, and to me it is the best tool we humans have to find truth. Nowadays i don't believe in anything supernatural, because i have never been given good reason to, nor been presented with convincing evidence. This is not me being stuck in my ways. This is me evaluating the garden i live in, and finding it beautiful even if no fairies live in it.

romai

YES! Klaus is so good, have not seen it in a while but it's one of my favorite Christmas movies out there. I'm also looking forward to what you think of this next arc in Demon Slayer 🤔it will be an interesting discussion. In regards to Passion I remember my parents took me to watch it in theaters and booooy, I was not able to sit through some of it. It left me feeling weird. It will be interesting to re-watch it since I have not seen it since 😂 it's like that with most movies or shows that kinda "scarred" me.

Dibbles

Heck yea, The Passion of Christ is the only movie on this list that I'll watch along, the others... No thanks

WalrusWallace

Yay so glad we get Klaus this year!

Opti_Frog

Eric, my reply to you was the longest post i've written in this discussion. I must have sat here for over an hour typing and refining it. And when i pressed "reply" Patreon gave me a message that something went wrong. My post was gone. I hope you understand that i simply cannot be arsed to go over it again. I bow out here. Thank you for the discussion.

Opti_Frog

Mavs, i'm just a regular dude. Of course i don't have all the answers. I simply cannot believe any extraordinary claim without sufficient evidence. To me, that seems like the most honest approach anyone could take. I've enjoyed talking to you as well.

Opti_Frog

I hear the reverend in Hot Fuzz.

Last Temptation is great, Willem nails the role I think. Passion... well, my thoughts about it would probably upset people, so I'll leave it at I wouldn't have recommended.
