Christoph Waltz is Djesus in funny SNL skit / faux trailer Enlarge picture - Christoph Waltz is Djesus in funny SNL skit / faux trailer
Christoph Waltz was the host of the latest issue of Saturday Night Live and one of the skits that’s gotten more people talking was the faux trailer for “Djesus Uncrossed.” You will find it in full below.

Fans will know that Waltz attained worldwide acclaim for his role in Quentin Tarantino’s “Inglourious Basterds.” In 2012, he starred in “Django Unchained,” another Tarantino movie that earned him critical and commercial praise.

“Djesus Uncrossed” would be the final chapter in a hypothetical trilogy, according to the faux trailer. Waltz, of course, plays Djesus – with the H in Djesus H. Christ being silent.

As was to be expected, the video has already gotten many talking about whether some line has been crossed, albeit in the name of comedy.

Not being a religious person, I can’t find anything wrong with the skit but do check it out to let me know if you agree with those saying there’s reason for offense or not.

Enjoy!

I wouldn't want to have to answer for this one day. How sad that anyone can say that they find nothing "wrong" with this, when actually there is nothing right about it.

MARK 7:21-23
21 For from within, out of the heart of men, proceed evil thoughts, adulteries, fornications, murders,
22 Thefts, covetousness, wickedness, deceit, lasciviousness, an evil eye, blasphemy, pride, foolishness:
23 All these evil things come from within, and defile the man.

Only a weak, uneducated mind comes up with this stuff. Hollywood's creativity is lost. They give us what you get when education is absent, sex and violence.

In my opinion, this "skit" clearly depicts the desperation some individuals in Hollywood must feel to earn financial and personal gain. These individual have crossed familial and religious, age and gender boundaries in the desperation. It seems apparent they have no regard for the sanctity of anything that bonded our society so long ago. No limits, no restraint, all in the name of what? .....entertainment? I would gladly welcome back the years before the advent of television and the inglorious power that media and those groups who run media arrived in our homes.

If this isn't offensive, being that your not religious, how about a skit featuring Allah and all his martyrs. Wouldn't that be a hoot.

C'mon, It's only hostility against a fantasy character so its allright.
How could anyone fail to see that God is love after he allowed his blameless son to be brutally tortured so that he could finally get over Adam eating a fruit that Eve told him to eat that a talking-snake told her to eat. Fruit eating bastards! We deserve to burn in hell for ever for that, but thankfully God killed himself to make himself happy again.
Lol.

Maybe a little too bloody, but actually just fake blood. Overall I think it's funny. Pardon my ignorance, but what does the "H" stand for?
