The Passion of the Christ is a film that has a lot of controversy surrounding it for a long time. I’ve been along for this ride since the rumors of its existence oh so long ago. I’ve been captivated by the way this movie was conceived and made completely outside of the Hollywood system. To me Mel Gibson has shown a real passion for his religion and his devotion to Christ by embarking on the journey of making this film and that in itself should be recognized and hailed as an act of true dedication…I’m not going to discuss any of the plot points of this film for you either know this story or you don’t. There is not any new ground in terms of story here. I found this film to be deeply moving. As a Catholic I am familiar with this story all to well. I hear it every Easter Sunday as the Priest reads it from the Gospel. It was amazing to see this story fleshed out right before my very eyes to see what was happening to hear the words spoken at the time. To me this movie made me feel like I was right along with Him. Like had I been alive during all of this, this is what I would have seen. The way the violence was represented I feel was accurate. I feel without a doubt that what was seen in this movie was what the people who witnessed this act saw.

There was not much dialog when compared to your average movie of today. Monica Bellucci does not really have any lines in the movie but she is in the entire film. There is a lot of non-dialog acting in this movie and to me its well done. The actors effectively convey their emotions and feelings without having to say anything at all. I came as close to crying during the Passion then any other movie I’ve seen. Yes more then Return of the King and even Kill Bill and not only did this happen once but a total of about 4 times for me. It really hit me emotionally like no other film I’ve ever seen.I feel very strongly about this movie and I think everyone should see it. Not because it is good but because its a film that everyone will take something away from it differently. Many will feel the same as I do, others will maybe become more spiritual, and others will probably not like it but understand what is being told. The film is not Anti-Semitic in anyway. For anyone that says this film is anti-Semitic is more or less saying the Bible is anti-Semitic because the story told is the same story in the Bible. So I’m not buying those claims by those who have not even seen it and say that it is anti-Semitic. I think the people who will come away from it with the most are people who have some sort of religion in their life. People who are not necessarily devout but know enough about their religions and can say, “Hey I’m…(Fill your religion in here)” proudly. I think Jews, Muslims, and Christians alike will all be moved by this film and enjoy it. It is the people who do not have a religion or have shunned their religion that I am unsure of how they will enjoy this film. I am curious to how those people will react after seeing it.

So in the end I think you all should see the movie whether you are Jewish, Christian, Muslim, Atheist, or a religion doubter. Even if you hate it you still will have gotten a look at what us Christians believe in and why it is such a corner stone of our faith. You’ll also understand why Easter is the holiest day of the year to us and that it really isn’t about the Easter Bunny. I’d also like to ask that If you did not enjoy the movie to not trivialize what you have seen. The story being told is a very big deal to a lot of people and you could end up hurting someone by doing so. Be critical of the film by all means but just don’t trivialize what story is being told.

With that I will leave you, and you can expect your normal SeanPiotrowski.net posts starting with the next post. I realize this post has a very unusual serious tone to it but you have to understand that this was something that hit home with me and I feel very Passionate about it…

I’d like to hear all of your thoughts on the film and what I have had to say, so please comment for I am really curious to what others have to say about this…

Till next time…”Amen…”

After I Vomit I usually get all teary eyed…and fat faced…Hellllllllo…….

How is everyone? I am good. Great infact. As I am waiting for Mr. Coleman, Mr. Yannetti, and Miss Davey to arrive for our trip to the University of Delaware I figured I’d update and see what you are all up to…

Last night I caught an advanced screening of The Girl Next Door. Its a movie about a nerdy high school senior who has a former porn star move in next door to him. While the previews for this film make it seem like it is a cheesy teen comedy I must say it really is not. It is a very well executed film full of laughs and a great story. The characters are great and enjoyable and you find yourself routing for the hero and yelling at him for doing stupid things. While the overall general story has been done before it has never been done like this before. The entire Porn angle is fresh and new and done pretty tastefully for being about the Porn world. SeanPiotrowski gives it 4 stars out of 5 which translates to Go see the fuckin’ movie. Also bring your favorite significant other they’ll enjoy it too…
This Ash Wednesday I’ll be doing something that is probabily the most religious thing I’ve ever done on Ash Wednesday, I’ll be seeing The Passion of the Christ. I’ve been following this movie’s development for over a year and I am very excited to see it. So far to me I have a feeling its going to be the Braveheart of Jesus movies. You of course will all hear my full thoughts on this film for I’ll be dedicating the post after I see it entirely to it…Tonight is my trip to the University of Delaware. Sex Juice is being made. I am sure I will have plenty of pictures and stories to tell…

Garlic and Mushrooms are my two new favorite things…

I’ve added three new items to the SeanPiotrowski.net Super Store. Two Posters and a zip up hoodie for the ladies. Maybe now some of you will buy something. Check them out by hitting the SP.NET Store button below…

Sometimes I like to pretend I am Dracula, preying on the innocent young blood of women…I hope everyone had a nice Valentine’s Day. I actually had a nice one for a change. Best one so far ever. Got to bust out some Samba De Amigo. You know that is always a good time…

Today at work I finally had my “New Hire Orientation” after like 6 months of working for Rider. They fed me lunch and my co-worker Ryan was there so it was kinda fun. Plus I didn’t have to work all day I just got to sit around and eat. MMMMM eating…

My mom thinks I’m getting a huge gut and it means I’m fat. She told me I should start looking for fat girls to date because that’s the only people that would want to date me. I think she’s a bit crazy…

This morning at 404 the heat was broken and I woke up to a 55 degree house. You can imagine what that felt like on such a warm day…

Cookies & Twix are the hot new SeanPiotrowski.net Snack…

Last night I watched Freddie Got Fingered for like the 10th time. I’ve come to the conclusion it is on a level few understand or comprehend. Most people think Tom Green is annoying. I think Tom Green is bold in the world of comedy. I would say he is a risk taker much like Andy Kaufman was for his time. I am not saying he is Andy Kaufman but I am saying he takes comedic risks like Andy did. While most would dismiss Freddie Got Fingered as pure gross our humor. I see Freddie Got Fingered as a misunderstood work of genius. Much like my co-worker Erik. He is a misunderstood disgruntled man who is everyone dislikes but I love him and enjoy his company at work. Anyway if you have not seen this fabulous film you must because you will surly enjoy it…
Thank you for rapping Through the Wire because you’ve given me a rap song that I enjoy very much. Its been so long since I’ve been able to really enjoy a rap song like this one…Remember Back That Ass Up by Juvenile? What a classic…

Bleeding Through, Death By Stereo, and Himsa are playing a concert on April 2nd. If you all don’t go I will cry for many moons…

Frank just sent this to me and it is the most absurd thing I’ve ever read in my entire life. CLICK HERE TO READ IT
What kind of world do we live in that Barbie and Ken break up?! Like what the crap is that? First off I am bothered at the fact they make an offical announcement about this. Secondly, Barbie breaks up with Ken only to become hotter and sluttier?! What kind of example are we setting for our children? Sure enough we’re going to have girls just breaking up with their boyfriends or husbands for no reason and then slutting it up for the rest of their lives. Great thats all we need, the college mentality started at a younger age…

So I have a confession to make. Since I’ve moved into 404 I’ve been watching The O.C.. You see John got me hooked on it and now we’re both addicted to it. Every new episode he sits in his room and I sit in mine and we watch it yelling to each other. “OH MY GOD I HATE OLIVER!” or “HOLY CRAP LUKE IS GONNA BANG MARISSA’S MOM!” or “YEA LUKE YOU’RE SO COOL NOW!” Things of that nature. Then during commercials we’ll go into the other’s room to discuss what we think is going to happen next. Last night’s epsiode to me was the Peak of the amazingness for this show. So much action, so much drama, so much suspence, so much forbidden love… One of the reasons John and I love the O.C. so much is because of this man, Peter Gallagher. His character, Sandy Cohen, is the coolest TV Dads ever. He’s a good Dad to Seth and a good father figure for Ryan. Not to mention he’s a player with all the hot ladies. But at the end of the day we all know his heart belongs to his wife who is also the hottest middle aged woman ever. Did I mention he’s the funniest Dad ever? And he’s full of lots of valuable wisdom? Yea he has both of those things going for him. Peter Gallagher I think is our generation’s Robert Deniro. He is such a versitile actor and has played many many great roles. Any one remember him in Mr. Deeds? Such the like-able villian. Center Stage he played the hard as nails dance school guy. Or how about his amazing performance in the Brave New World TV Movie? I’m sure you all loved him in American Beauty and his guest starring role on the Family Guy. Peter Gallagher truly one of the greatest performers of our day… Today at work I had to listen to my boss talk about how he wanted to bang all the women on The O.C. and how he thought Summer would be “the most fun definatly a better lay then Marissa”. Kill me please. The Dirty Old Man has returned…

I have night class tonight I don’t really want to go but I have to…

Till next time…”She looks like a flower and stings like a bee…”

My 2nd Favorite Band in the UniverseSo last night after 3 previous failed attempts to see the Pietasters, Frank and I finally got to see them. This was my 3rd time seeing them and Frank’s first. As always they were amazing and seriously are one of the best live bands ever. We got to sit upstairs at the Troc and sip some beer. It was my first time up there and I must say it makes the concert going experience at the Troc even better if that is even possible because its the greatest concert venue ever. I decided I want the Pietasters to be my wedding band. Why? Because they can play cover songs and their own stuff rules and they drink lots of beer. So when you add it together it makes for a fun equation…

So 404 is becoming a well known place for a good time. This Thursday Gerold did infact grace us with his presence. Females from Deepher and elsewhere on the Rider campus flocked to 404 for some crazy pre-game action before a night at Crapmandu (Kat). So before any of that even happened when I returned from my night class at like 9:15 only to find my housemates drunk off their asses and blasting Ultimate Dance Party 1998. John Sarin then informed me that they had a dance party, just my housemates no one else, without me. I was a bit saddened that I was unable to participate. I had also made a 5 gallon batch of my World Famous Sex Juice. John proclaimed it as the most perfect batch ever made. I then downed 10 cups in an hour or so while various people came to our house and sampled the amazingness of the juice. I made friends with this girl in my Senior Seminar in Political Science class. Turns out shes president of the college Democrats. HAHA how about that. The two of us made fun of a bunch of people in our class. It was fun. Crapmandu was lame as usual. Supposedly Security was looking for me but I had left two seconds before they started looking for me. We ended up stealing some people’s cab and got home. At that point I made some phone calls which I don’t remember anything said on them and passed out…

I called out of work on Friday. I wasn’t feeling too good and needed a day off…
