"For studios to not recognize that's an audience is like them saying, 'We're not marketing movies to men,"' Bock said.

I didn't think Hollywood had marketed a movie to straight white men in at LEAST a decade. Did I miss one or something? ;)

"No one wants to be preached to in a movie theater," Winter said.

That was my favorite line from this story. Liberals preach like crazy in movie theaters, only from a diferent gospel.

"On Sunday, 43 percent of America was in church," Jonathan Bock, head of a movie marketing company that specializes in religious audiences

Going to church makes you a Christian like sitting in a garage makes you a car.

Here's a clue or two for ya:

What do these all have in common? Compelling stories. Good is good. Evil is evil. Moral relativism is gone. No gratuitous sex scenes. Christianity, America, Men and "Greedy Corporations" are not the Bad Guys. The Bad Guys are truly Bad Guys. Good triumphs over evil.

There. That wasn't so hard, was it?

Winter said studios are looking for "projects" based on good stories likely to make entertaining movies, without being obvious efforts to proselytize and convert people.

Hmm. Why do I get the feeling that the "projects" they're looking for are like "The Da Vinci Code." Yeah, yeah...the "good story" is about the Last Supper, and Jesus' gift to humanity.

But the "project" there--why it's the secret message that one of the Apostles was really a woman! Oh, and Judas--he was really a good guy, but history hasn't been kind to him! Oh, and the Popes--yeah, they're all deceitful, power-grabbing murderers.

I don't trust directors like this.
