Idiots. Like people of faith are going to go to an otherwise depravity-filled movie because the directors give a Cross a cameo.

# When Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie steal a neighbor�s car in "Mr. & Mrs. Smith,� a crucifix is seen hanging from the rear-view mirror
I just find it flat-out, ROTFLMAO hysterical� that this is cited as proof that "Hollywood finds Jesus".�

The Da Vinci Code,� based on a novel that challenges basic Christian dogma. A movie that is based on heretical Gnosticism, that has centuries of writings and documents thoroughly discrediting it, yeah, that will bring the Christians out.

"which Christian groups regard as an allegory of Christ�s Resurrection" Everybody regards it as an allegory of Christ's resurrection (because it is) - not just Christian groups - geez these writers can be morons.

Yeah, � so even if you are bashing Jesus and pissing on Church doctrine, it still counts as "finding Jesus" in Hollywood.� Brilliant!�

"We decided to make the next-door neighbor, whose crucifix it is, be hip, young, cool Christians," the movie's director, Doug Liman, told the New York Times news service. "It's literally in there for no other reason than I thought: 'This is cool.'" Lord forgive them. They only do it in hopes to make a buck. They don't have a clue.

Universal Studios screened the movie "Ray" for church groups as a way to build positive "buzz" for the film by word-of-mouth; the director had alread expurgated the script to mollify the film's backer, Philip Anschutz. I would have hated to see it before it was �expurgated�. The movie was an hour and a half on the few most �un-Christian� years of his life and spent 10 minutes on the other 40 years�.

Let's put it this way: Hollywood went looking for Captain Kirk and found
Captain Picard. Just imagine what they will find looking for Jesus!
