They "went dry" on the project because Gibson wanted complete artistic control on a movie whose subject Hollywood determined did not have broad market appeal. Hollywood does that all the time....... They coughed up $40 million to make "Ishtar". Somehow, they got probably $25 million to make "Dude, Where's My Car?!". I find it hard to believe the subject matter of "The Passion of the Christ" has less mass appeal than "Dude, Where's My Car?!"...... To answer that question you have to look at the most important demographic to Hollywood. Its males between the ages of 16 and 25. That is not the demographic for Passion of the Christ. It is the demographic for Dude, where's my car? Its no more complex than that. ted
