Anyone watch this?

I want to watch it but not if it's another zeitgeist part1 type clone.

It does feature Sam Harris, that's how I stumbled upon this.

The beginning of it is very similar to Zeitgeist Part 1, and Zeitgeist even directly took footage from The God Who Wasn't There. The same exact comparisons between Jesus and other gods are made. The main difference is it doesn't go as far as Zeitgeist by trying to connect Jesus to astrology like in Zeitgeist.

It's been a while, but I don't remember anything strikingly new. He makes a great revelation out of the fact that the story of Jesus was written by people who didn't personally know him, but I considered that to be common knowledge among the non-fundamentalist population, and the rest won't watch it anyway.

Lots of music and drama, some interviews that are supposed to make you realize that some Christians are really stupid, the end. I haven't even watched Zeitgeist, but from the synopses I've read, it ain't as bad, just not surprisingly revealing as I as an amateur on the history of religion did expect.

I'd watch Sam Harris pull multiple Fatality-moves on Chopra again instead. Hell, I'll do that right now.

Yeah that was pretty awesome.

I think I will watch it just to hear what Harris has to say, thanks.

Its pretty much the same as Zeitgeist as Sky mentioned but without the astrotheology crap and has a terrible techno dance soundtrack(this is just a simulation.LOL!!)

"has a terrible techno dance soundtrack"
-
Actually I quite enjoyed that :P The rest of the tracks are kind of boring though. But then I quite enjoyed the Zeitgeist soundtrack as well :D But maybe its because Im a media composer so notice music differently.
