Exactly. And the ubiquitous, immense success of the movie was after the novel was already a best-seller
pretty sure this box office figure includes the re-release in 2000 or whenever it was
The initial Exorcist trilogy is actually kind of based in how every entry was super experimental and weird. I can appreciate that. They could very easily have just made more movies about Priests doing exorcisms.
I guess even the prequel was super experimental, though I remember almost nothing about it. Wasn't that set in Iran or some shit?
3 wasn't based on the exorcist at all, it was based on a different story.
The studio called it exorcist 3 to try and trick people into watching it.
(It's a great movie though)
No, the book (Legion) is a sequel to the Exorcist, but the studio essentially wanted the movie to be even more like the Exorcist, and to be called Exorcist 3.
There's no actual exorcism in the book, if I'm not mistaken.
Wouldn't seeing that shit prove to you that God is real, because demons are real?
Father Karras hesitation was related to the way the vile demon Pazuzu tormented the girl.
Moments of doubt are inherent to the Christian Faith as they're precisely when you're being tested/tempted but forge ahead anyway
That doesn't make any sense. you're being overly dramatic, like a girl, and not thinking clearly to damage control for things like faith in god not making any sense if you are truly thinking clearly and standing up for yourself
if the dood is seeing supernatural shit then it makes no sense why he'd doubt any of his faith. It just doesn't make any sense. Avoid that however you need to lol
If I wake up and see an elf planting presents under my tree at 3am on Christmas with some fat guy before they disappear then I won't be doubting santa very much.
Avoid any autistic overanalysis. It's a matter of faith where part of it involves trembling when facing what evil's capable of: the fact that it happens leads him to question- although briefly- if there is a Benevolent Creator who'd counter that evil force. There is, but this right of passage-- not letting the Devil fool or mislead him-- is essential to Christian parables
That's the crisis of Faith I mentioned dummy: he briefly considered whether God really is The Almighty-- which is exactly what the devil attempts with his tricks
You're a dumb little homosexual and you make shit about yourself like every narcissist theist on the planet. god damn you piss me off.
Father Karras was having a total meltdown of faith you projecting fricking termite. It wasn't just about the legitimacy of the good nature of god. It was total doubt. He expressed said doubt even AFTER witnessing Ragan do clear super nature demon shit.
That is the joke Op is making
Period.
I would break your fricking jaw in person if I saw you pontificating like that you fricking air head maggot.
Theists are the most annoying fricking rock head morons on the planet

I’d call you a moron but that’s too insulting to them to lump you together. it’s not fully a crisis of is he or isn’t he real. it’s also part this possession proves he must be, so why can he let this happen. And if he can let this happen, then who is he, a man, to try and fight against such overwhelming evil. Whether he could even do it, or is just having faith even strong enough to fight against it.
He doesn't see anything overtly supernatural until the Exorcism itself. By then, he has stark proof and is fully on board; his faith is restored. Nothing that happens before the actual Exorcism is unexplainable. At least not until the backward talk, which is when he starts coming around. After that, he's only tormented by his guilt toward his mother's situation.

Actually now I am really thinking about it and you are really wrong. Father Karris's hesitation was related to the certain person being possessed, a little girl, and why god would let that happen. He was doubting shit because "why would god let that happen to a little girl". It wasn't because of the way pazuzu tormented her. He didn't even torture her that much lol.
That's the crisis of Faith I mentioned dummy: he briefly considered whether God really is The Almighty-- which is exactly what the devil attempts with his tricks
Well that's really fricking stupid and that's kinda the point op is making. I get that you can't handle being a moronic human and you wanna live forever so you gotta believe because you're really selfish and dumb but having any sort of crisis of faith when a little girl is speaking demon to you while floating is fricking stupid

why was he such a patriarchal chud that he wouldn't let the girl's mom be in the room with them during the exorcism? I'm glad the new Exorcist movie addressed this since it really hasn't aged well.
But you’re wrong still, the film is called the exorcist because it’s set and made in 1973, where the garbage smell of the New York City area and the subways and the concrete sidearms and buildings and garbage on the steeets because of the hooligans and crime increasing the smell of the garbage was phenomenal in America and that transcended into the film that’s why it’s dark and blue because of the nyc garbage smell, it was even made into a perfume and cologne for strippers and prositututes
> Boomeritis film > Priest doesn't know basic stuff in his religion like God putting his followers through suffering to test him > Suffering here is literally supernatural possesion > MC doesn't see this as evidence of god through simple logical deduction.
Friedkin, as genius as he was, let the better out of him and changed some things from the book.
His crisis was complex. Yes he no longer believed in god but still displayed priestly traits. The subway station doesn't end in him turning away from the beggar, but actually helping him out when he passed out. That's the issue with him. He could've become a famous psychiatrist but he was meant to be a priest. This ties with his mother. Because he is a priest, he cannot offer her a good life/care.
>a man CAN be a woman!
Wow, such deep zoomer films
what movie?
The Omen.
The Prophecy
I dont understand why this movie got sequels, the first one covered everything.
Because the first one did extremely well at the box office before the sequel was so shit it killed any momentum the first one built up.
Budget $12 million
Box office $441.3 million

Hellow moronic boomoids. The movie made 63 million during its original release. The 443 million is including its re-releases since then.

Just confirmed what I just said boomoid. Low iq boomoid. 80 IQ boomoid.
No it doesn't, it was much more complex than that but you, being a moron, only read the 1st phrase up to "1974"
pretty sure this box office figure includes the re-release in 2000 or whenever it was
Even if it does I don't thing the rerelase accounts for most of its outstanding box office

The ninth configuration and the exorcist 3 aren't exactly sequels. They are more like movies that share the same universe
3 wasn't based on the exorcist at all, it was based on a different story.
The studio called it exorcist 3 to try and trick people into watching it.
(It's a great movie though)

because in theory if someone is exorcised and someone of insufficient or no faith is nearby they can become possessed
Wouldn't seeing that shit prove to you that God is real, because demons are real?
Why would one necessitate the other? Who's to say it isn't just us and demons?
You can't have demons without something opposing them, because otherwise they'd have already made humans extinct.
OPs mother sucks wieners in hell.

>Now kindly undo these straps
Wow such terrible words the devil speaks!
You didn't watch the movie or read the book, did you? He was having a crisis of faith well before all that shit went down.
Friedkin, as genius as he was, let the better out of him and changed some things from the book.
His crisis was complex. Yes he no longer believed in god but still displayed priestly traits.

wouldnt he go to hell since he killed himself?
He sacrificed for the benefit of another human being. So nope
