There hasn’t been a really, really good film about Jesus for ages, has there?

It’s the sexiest OW&L in history, which makes it just 14% less sexy than everything else on the internet. Let’s celebrate by going into a dark room, getting nice and close and WATCHING AVENGERS ASSEMBLE ALL OVER AGAIN! Or whatever. Your call, hot stuff.
