"you need help jesus" said the ice cream "oh its you dad" 'jesus' casually eating a cherry says back to the ice cream :)) Sounds like the last shred of his sanity was trying to shine through there :)) Thankyou for your sacrifices possum :))
? How's the fact that Jesus was a Jew doesn't want to hang out with the Jewish Sasquatch or is the joke that he just doesn't like the Jews because they're the ones that hung him on the cross. regardless possum is fucking awesome.
"If you wanted to skin a bunch of people who no one cares about, you'd be better off skinning male domestic violence victims." -The Legendary Dr. Possum Shaym
the sad truth of the violent male stereotype being so deeply ingrained that actual male victims are terrified of speaking out because it's so easily turned around on them.
@@wintermoon7003 yeah, the stats are super close actually. In heterosexual relationships with abuse present it’s typically mutually abusive at about 50% of the cases being mutually abusive. 25-28% have the male as the primary aggressor and 22-25% are females as the primary aggressor. Fun fact for the day.
Aydin Paladin, for one, cared enough to put out a very well-researched over hour- long video on the subject recently. I'm grateful to people like her for giving me hope for humanity.
A thing to remember is that this movie not only came in 2001, during the kickoff of the Random-Comedy era that gave us things like Homestar Runner and Sealab 2021, but this movie was also chock full of taboo subjects, at least in the West - things like depicting religious characters as real but different than stated in legend, as well as just the open incorporation of lesbians (remember this movie came out only a handful of years after Chasing Amy - nowadays this wouldn't be even remotely big but at the turn of the century, this kind of thing was really daring). Having said that, the fact that the movie is actually rather well-natured, rather than attempting to be an aggressive, biting comedy (since South Park had just recently changed the whole comedic landscape), is actually commendable, and I like that they made Jesus a good dude, pure and simple. I just wish that they didn't change his look so that he'd look like a normal guy... maybe they just found that the movie was difficult to do with the wig and fake beard. I really liked some parts of this movie, including the scene-wipe where they use the Crucifix as though it was the Batman logo in the 60's Batman show - it's just a shame that much of the movie just sorta...exists. Those parts aren't engaging and it's not even because they fail to be engaging - it's more like it's just blatant padding, like Cinematic Foam Peanuts.
H-have you ever seen a vampire movie back in those times? Every vampire chick was a lesbian. So much so that it's a cliche to hear about a lesbian vampire. I know because I'm a 90's kid.
@@wintermoon7003 I suppose not really - I do know that they were always hyper-sexualized and usually Bi (at least this was slightly inferred in the late 80s and early 90s when I was a kid) - Was outright lesbianism overt already by the turn of the century? If so, I suppose I learned something new today. Having said that, was it always the vampire women themselves, or also the non-vampires?
I think you're misremembering what the state of indie movies was like at the time, there were tons of lesbians, to the point where it became a cliche. You can see cartoons and movies make tons of jokes about how EVERY indie movie had lesbians, but oddly enough they all seemed to think it was revolutionary and shocking when they did it. South Park actually made an entire episode based on that joke. It was the episode where the indie film festival was hosted by South Park, and every single film shown in the festival was about lesbians. Wendy even says that every indie movie is about lesbians at the end of the episode. Plus, around that time there was a 'gay best friend' in pretty much every movie and show. After Ellen had that famous episode about being a lesbian that established her as the biggest female comedian ever, everyone wanted to be the next big gay actor that would generate a defining moment in tv history, so you had pretty much every mainstream show having 'the gay episode'. It wasn't like Chasing Amy was the first show about lesbians, or this dumb movie was the first indie movie to feature them. If anything, the lesbians being included just show that it was chasing trends.
The scene of Jesus mugging and high-fiving a Mexican wrestler because said wrestler just learned that the girl he's into is bisexual - I'm struggling to express with words how amazing this is.
If I had a nickel for every time I encountered a piece of media that involved Jesus and vampires, I would have two nickels, which isn’t a lot but it’s weird that it’s happened twice. For context, in the anime Lupin the 3rd Part 2 Jesus is literally confirmed to have a twin sister that was the first vampire.
I admire this movie for one thing. The props department actually went and bought real clerical shirts. Most movies and tv shows just put some white plastic through the collar of a black business shirt.
What got me was when the atheists set up on either side of Jesus and do their action poses, the girl just lifts her boobs up and drops them. Like, why? That’s so stupid, it made me chuckle at the very least.
As a musician, loved hearing you say audio is arguably more important. More than any other artistic medium music portrays raw emotion and can make or break a film if done right.
My friends got me this dvd on my birthday about 15 years ago for our weekly bad movie Saturdays. It was soooo bad. Still love the atheist clown car and Jesus flicking a toothpick stake and killing a vampire.
Possum, I have a novel for you. The first video of yours I watched was The Eragon review, and since then I’ve watched all your videos, and you’re now my top favorite RU-vidr. At first I wrongly assumed you were just another reviewer, but when I watched your Ghostbusters review, I realized you knew what the hell you’re talking about. One of the other things that drew me to your content is your avatar. Most people who have avatars on RU-vid, they’re really pretty. Yours? I love them. The art style you use sticks out and I absolutely love it. I’m an artist, and I appreciate the skill you display in your drawings. I can always tell what the drawing is, and they’re just so charming. I also appreciate the fact you don’t try too hard with the animation parts. In this video, the Jesus joke you did had me rolling. The stock footage mixed with the completelt white drawings was just… i love it. It’s funny. On that note: i loved the Jesus joke. It wasn’t thtrowing shade on religion, making fun of it, or anything like that. It was just such a solid joke. I also ADORE how you get into character when you’re acting. You clearly have a passion for filmmaking, and It’s so nice and fun to see. Love ya, Possum. I’m not a patron because I’m poor, but I watch all your videos, and reccomend them to everyone I know.
Judging by the title alone, I refuse to believe this is not the greatest movie ever created edit: give this script to someone who knows how to make movies because holy shit
I couldn’t help but put the script you wrote into biblical context. I was howling with laughter as I imagined there being a Bible verse that explained how Jesus killed a vampire with a plunger. I love your content, keep going!
Nevermind the plot or the audio, but somehow I find the aesthetic of the movie oddly appealing. Maybe because of the camera that was used or the scenery or something else entirely, can't put my finger on it ... Strange.
I actually thought that Ice Cream God was an example of the filmmaker actually trying to make a practical effect. Given the budget of approximately thirty cents, I think it worked. The weird sexual assault? Definitely hate that more.
This movie takes me back to the independent 90's Aussie horror movie, Bloodlust. Everyone I know who has seen it says it is the worst movie ever made. This looks right up there.
Idk what's more hilarius...that Jesus took possum on a road trip to Romania for a sandwich or that he came down on earth a 2nd time specifically for him?
I like to think that Jesus stormed out of a bar so fast because wanted to burn the Ab*rtion Clinic himself, and was afraid that Possum does it before him.
See? The crispy chicken sandwich metaphor did make sense in the end! Because Possum ended up crunchy on the outside but soft and juicy on the inside! Smart guy that Jesus.
I got this on DVD back in 2004. Still have it. It's a terrible movie, but I love it. I would be lying if I said that i didn't have the Limo Funk song as my ring tone.
16:40 i mean, el santo already have a couple of movies of him fighting supernatural creatures including vampires, still seeing him in this canadian production tho...
Biggest plot hole was "lesbians are deviants", like #1 they're not the most numerous of deviants, #2 there's about as many gay men, #3 never established why "deviants" are sun proof and #4 being a lesbian isn't deviant at all, at least not by modern standards.
