Why you gotta make Jesus hot?

This has long been a moral dilemma for moi. Is it OK to lust after a movie/TV Jesus when a hot actor is cast? Case in point:

CHRISTIAN BALE
Mary, Mother of Jesus (1999, TV)

Who even knew he played Jesus? Is it OK to play American Psycho and Jesus in one career span? But, it's undeniable, he is a hot Jesus. Guess I gotta move to Galilee.


JIM CAVIEZEL
The Passion of the Christ (2004)

Now, this one's tricky. He was very hot, until he actually started believing he was Jesus. Going around saying that since his initials are the same it was destined that he play Jesus. Not to mention hanging around with that wackaloon Mel Gibson. Have you seen this guy in anything since? No. Didn't think so. Mel is like career suicide these days. Watch out Brit!

I agree Jim Cavaziel started acting a bit 'holier than thou' after he got the role of Jesus. But he did act in Deja Vu (2006) with Denzel Washington after that and is still a great actor. As for Mel Gibson, he made a mistake, people should stop judging him like they're all saints themselves.

Now Christian bale is 'the' Batman, from saviour to murderer back to saviour it seems :-)

cheers!

Exactly! They both are unbelievable hot but it doesn't mean that we all are going to go to hell for watching this xD
I do adore Christian Bale and watching him a Jesus is strange but okay. Let's just say, i prefer to watch him as a Batman e.g. but he just proved he's a great actor. Same as Jim!
