@manonthemount Why? Am I supposed to be dirt poor in order to ask people to support a show they'd like to see more of? I don't understand that mentality. You like the show and would like to see it continue, but only if I'm living in my car and having to search the city for recyclables? WTF? What kind of husband/father would I be if I let myself get to that point doing this show? Seriously, people!!! You watch shows done by people making $1m per episode. It's okay to throw a buck my way.
@misterdeity Absolutely! You just made my day and I've been good and reposted on all my sad social networking profiles and will donate straight away :) Please keep up the good work, Sony are Morons!
@stiimuli Mr. D and Jesus are talking about needing some violence in the story. Mel Gibson made a snuff film about the crucifixion called "The Passion of the Christ." It was horribly, graphically violent.
yes Im familiar with the recent antics of Mel Gibson and has movie Passion of the Christ.... I just didnt get the referance for some reason. Possibly because on first viewing I didnt hear Sean say under his breath "passion...sadistic". My bad.
The egregious continuity errors (his scarf vanished and reappeared), the just-off-sync speaking, and the word replacement simply MAKE that public service announcement. :D :D :D
The much more annoying answer :), is that 3rd person is an option (switching is easy), but it's basically to see your gear & surroundings, while the bulk of the actual gameplay is designed for 1rst person. I recommend looking up the reviews here on youtube if you have any interest at all. The only people that don't seem to like the game are the religiously hardcore fans of the original games (from 1997)...
@misterdeity It's from the same people who made the Elder Scrolls series I think and runs really similar. It's a pretty good game, actually, with just enough demented comedy to make the gruesome graphics and twisted story line fun.
@TheReasonWhyGuy That's my step daughter, Lily. She's Amy's girl. Mine is 20 this year and played our waitress in Mr. Deity and the Really Cheap Meal (season two, on Crackle).
People should subscribe to this show just for that wonderful "public service announcement" at the end of this episode :P ...You guyz are just awesome :)
wow misterdeity your wife has great teeth. Its a weird compliment I know. lol. But anyway the second half of this show is one of my top favorites. Keep up the good work! : )
Jesus is so hot. If I had known, I would have let him into more than just my life. :) If Tom Cruise and Dennis Quaid had a baby, it would look just like Jesus!! Of course, with Tom Cruise on board, it could be an alien...but whatever!
Mister Deity isn't bad at all, either. He reminds me of Steve Carell in "The Office". haha
It's still religious comedy. If all you listen to is fundamentalist Christians, you won't know or realize that the VAST majority of Christians recognize the contradictions and conflicts between the Gospels, and recognize that they are man-written, not God written.
Not necesarily, you could be making fun of mormon's religion and still be a christian, mocking religion in general does not imply your an atheist, you could be a deist too or pantheist
Love the show, I'll definitely be making a contribution for your efforts. But will I be promised a seat by your side? Or Jesus', I'll take either. Both look to yield great conversation.
Like they don't get enough attention? C'mon. I know you're buying that new firearm and going to that gunshow. You've got something for us somewhere. I'll turn on my all-knowingness. I will! Don't tempt me.
This episode is an INSTANT favourite! And for those who don't see the difference between these guys asking for money and religious leaders asking for money, you obviously have not been to a church where they say that if you give money, you'll get it back in the "blessings" currency or other such things. Here, there's a tangible trade-off that doesn't try to play on emotion and fear. I think I much prefer this.
Only my sofa is empty and my parents hide their money-clips from me.
Are you asking me, or is this just something you say to your clergy on a regular basis? If you're asking me, I don't want shed loads -- though if you have a shedload you can part with, I'll not look you in the mouth. I just want little amounts from those who find this kind of thing valuable and worthy of support --- so we can keep doing it. That's all. If you're not one of them, have a nice life.
Well, thanks for the complement. I'm not really in their league. I mean they give people nothing in return --- only a load of crap, and some unjustly raised hopes. I aspire to that, but right now, I'm still providing these little bursts of insight, humor, and entertainment. But thanks so much. You flatter me.
I love this show so much. You guys seriously brighten my day everytime I watch an episode...Especially the end of this episode. "Let's call Mel!" I honest to Deity will be adding some donation once I find a way to secure my paycheck from my own little Lucy. :p
You are SO my new best friend. I think this is the first time anyone, in three years, has said anything like that about the Deity. I love you SO MUCH!!!!!!
Terrific idea! I used to work in Hollywood, so I'm probably this vid's ideal demographic.
For the record, the prevailing scholarly view today is that the author of the Book of Revelation, John of Patmos, was not John the Disciple and did not write the Book of John. The prevailing view also holds that John the Disciple didn't write the Book of John either — in any case "Revelation" and "John" were written by two different people. But whatever.
That makes perfect sense now that I think of it. What most people don't know is that the Gospels are anonymous. The names were added later by the Catholic Church if I remember it correctly.
Actually, the book of Acts does state at one point that it is written by Luke, and stylistically it does appear to be the same author as the gospel. All of the others are anonymous, though. I've also read that the epistles of John do appear consistent with the gospel, and may very well be the same author, but Revelation is quite different.
I love how in the "old day" when children called their parents out on something, the parents would just say, "don't talk back." The argument from authority is the best.
Zeus needs some anger management! I literally fell out of my chair I was laughing so hard. Seriously. I can send you pictures of the bruises when I landed.
Both ways? John of Rev. identifies self by name, Apostle John avoids doing it. Maybe he wanted to name himself in 1 place, but not the other. Rev. is sloppier Greek than the Gospel. Maybe he had a secretary. Rev. written earlier, Greek improves? Writing style and tone is different in both. A mid-3rd cent. writer didn't think it was the apostle who wrote Rev. However, they both stress eye witness testimony, and some background details and word usage are similar. No way to know for sure.
Yeah, I teach an intro to Western religions a couple of times a year, and use some of your more theological stuff in class. I totally want to support you ($) but I'm also still a grad student. I'd love to see an ep "explaining" the Trinity.
Blasphemy! God is contained in a sphere and hides between the particles in the atmosphere of the earth since God is in heaven above all continents and seas. God has no power on earth as he has no mass down here, without mass he cannot exercise any Force. Newtons second law, basic physics, F= m * a, Force is mass times acceleration. Power is Force times Distance. Without Force god has no power. So the power of god is limited to our imagination that he is between the atoms in the atmosphere.
Obviously you have experience discussing scripts because this dialog is perfect. Weaving together Christian, Jewish, Greek, and Roman history with Biblical contradictions all in a Hollywood banter was both intelligent and brilliantly funny!
BTW, I think Sean had the best two ad-libs in this episode (or, at least, my favorites). The first is about John the Baptist losing weight (which is so easy when you're beheaded --- it's cheating, really). And the second is about highlighting everything in his own blood. Kudos to him!!!!
Was the highlighting stuff in his own blood a reference to the Jesus Conference (or whatever) where they "determine" what was actually said by Jesus, and then it's written in red in revised bibles?
No, that was just a great ad-lib by Sean. He doesn't know about the Jesus Seminar. I just thought it was hilarious -- particularly when you consider that the end is about vicious, sadistic violence. It was like seasoning on the episode.
Your funding begging sketch in this one is the funniest ever

"It is, popcorn. It is."
I love the nicknames! :) Bit over the top but it worked really well with the old movie style you were going for.
Might I suggest adding a bit of noise to the film to make it look more "old" or even a slight yellow tint :)

Great. This has got to be one of my favourites so far. Is this the first reference to other "deities"? Can't recall.

The 2nd half was better than the 1st half.

Obviously you have experience discussing scripts because this dialog is perfect. Weaving together Christian, Jewish, Greek, and Roman history with Biblical contradictions all in a Hollywood banter was both intelligent and brilliantly funny!

BTW, I think Sean had the best two ad-libs in this episode (or, at least, my favorites). The first is about John the Baptist losing weight (which is so easy when you're beheaded --- it's cheating, really). And the second is about highlighting everything in his own blood. Kudos to him!!!!
misterdeity 2 years ago
Was the highlighting stuff in his own blood a reference to the Jesus Conference (or whatever) where they "determine" what was actually said by Jesus, and then it's written in red in revised bibles?

No, that was just a great ad-lib by Sean. He doesn't know about the Jesus Seminar. I just thought it was hilarious -- particularly when you consider that the end is about vicious, sadistic violence. It was like seasoning on the episode.

Just that much better then! He IS all-knowing!
