King of Kings (1961)

[The Mad Kiwi]

Well, Ben-Hur's confirmed for next year, and the rumors have been growing louder that Ten Commandments is coming next year in a 55th Anniversary Edition. So I really don't see what the big deal is that King of Kings is coming out first. It's the most barebones of the three in terms of supplements, so of course it'll be quicker to churn out; nothing new's being produced. While I agree that Ben-Hur's a better film, I'm going to say right now that I prefer King of Kings over Ten Commandments. It's more sophisticated and less hokey, in my opinion. Let the stoning commence.
