This is spinning far out of... control, really, I almost typed something else, but control's the only word that comes to mind.
Hauling back to my original thought process, while the anti-Semitism (I think we've both been misspelling it) has been the main topic of media discussion, what interests me now is the newish controversy - the question as to whether the movie is too violent. In particular, if it's too violent to achieve its goal as an outreach/evangelism project. I've heard mention of the violence before, but only in the last couple of days have I started to see letters to the editor and op eds and Google news articles and reviews that specifically argue whether the violence is over the top or not, and whether children should or should not see it.
That's the bit that interests me, particularly in context of having seen the Black Rose be literally thrown out of town by a Christian coalition for violence and its effects on children.
