I think the horse is dead but what the heck! Let’s beat it a little more because hubris needs to be ridiculed without mercy:

Several prominent scholars who were interviewed in a bitterly contested documentary that suggests that Jesus and his family members were buried in a nondescript ancient Jerusalem burial cave have now revised their conclusions, including the statistician who claimed that the odds were 600:1 in favor of the tomb being the family burial cave of Jesus of Nazareth, a new study on the fallout from the popular documentary shows.
The dramatic clarifications, compiled by epigrapher Stephen Pfann of the University of the Holy Land in Jerusalem in a paper titled “Cracks in the Foundation: How the Lost Tomb of Jesus story is losing its scholarly support,” come two months after the screening of The Lost Tomb of Christ that attracted widespread public interest, despite the concomitant scholarly ridicule.

The paper also notes that DNA scientist Dr. Carney Matheson, who supervised DNA testing carried out for the film from the supposed Jesus and Mary Magdalene ossuaries, and who said in the documentary that “these two individuals, if they were unrelated, would most likely be husband and wife,” later said that “the only conclusions we made were that these two sets were not maternally related. To me, it sounds like absolutely nothing.”
Furthermore, Pfann also says that a specialist in ancient apocryphal text, Professor Francois Bovon, who is quoted in the film as saying the enigmatic ossuary inscription “Mariamne” is the same woman known as Mary Magdalene – one of the filmmakers’ critical arguments – issued a disclaimer stating that he did not believe that “Mariamne” stood for Mary of Magdalene at all.
Pfann has already argued that the controversial inscription does not read “Mariamne” at all.

If the purpose of this movie wasn’t sensationalism and trying to make a buck (and maybe trying to undermine the faith of believers), they might have allowed their movie to be viewed by scholars and avoid all of this. They left themselves wide open to being harshly criticized by scholars. Maybe the next time people will be a little more careful and not be so quick to make a buck at the expense of their reputation.
