I'm really sorry, but I loved South Park's take on The Passion.
It said everything that needed saying and did it in a funny way. And about being sorry...hmmm, I guess I'm not.

You don't have to agree with me, but the fundies in my life have been somewhat unsufferable since that movie came out...ugh.

4. Kyle finally sees The Passion
because Cartman is relentless with his accusations that Kyle killed Jesus. This makes Kyle questions his Jewish heritage. Then Stan and Kenny see it, realize it sucks, and want their money back. They can't get it from the theater. They call the webmaster of www.melgibson.com to see if they can get his address (and or their money back).

Turns out the website is managed by Cartman.

Cartman uses the Mel Gibson/The Passion fan club to organize all the other fans of the film in South Park, dresses like Hitler, and convinces them (which isn't too hard) that the Jews need to be exterminated because they killed Jesus.

This sets off a battle between his marchers and the local Jews, who are trying to helo Kyle come to grips with his mania.

Meanwhile, Stan and Kenny take the bus to Malibu CA. to ask for their $18 back. Gibson, it turns out, is nuts and insists that the boys are there to torture him. He then chases them around in various costumes (settling finally on nakedness).

They escape and head back to South Park with Mel Gibson in hot pursuit.

At the height of the battle in front of the theater the boys arrive with Gibson in tow who smears shit on the doors of the houses and acts like a lunatic until finally shitting on Cartman's face.

Thats it in a nutshell.

7. Most of it was good.
But what I didn't like was the part where they insinuated that jews should apologize for killing Jesus. And they made up some crap about the US apologizing for slavery in 1973.

9. Yeah, but right after that
Kyle learns that the Passion was just a freak's interpretation of the Bible and realizes he shouldn't have cared.
