> I've reached a point where I almost never go to a movie unless it's PG13 or better. Violence and lewdness have made even R movies unpleasant.

same here. I don't need to see partial nudity, sex scenes or hear GD spouted every few seconds. When are the idiots in Hollywierd going to get this. Can't they see how successful the new Christian movies are and get the hint. People are tired of the overly secular crap.

I’ve seen some pretty good ones so far:

The Gift.... Great film!
Everest in 3D...How did they do that!
War Room...MOre like a made for Hallmark Made for TV movie, but one all Americans should see.
AntMan...More for the kids.

“People are tired of the overly secular crap.”

The only people that are tired of the crap are those who still remember something different, like ourselves. Hollywood could care less what we want or like. Their aim is to change the morals and values of society with a continual drip, drip, drip in the ears and eyes of impressionable youths and young adults who can be swayed by the graphic, raw nature of the material.

We ourselves are much to blame. If only we had objected and refused to watch those smarmy, sexually charged soap operas when they went beyond decency. If only we had turned off those stupid little sitcoms when they started going beyond the bounds with their cutsey little sexual inuendos. If only we had objected to the seventie’s glorification of adultery and cheating in marriage and the increasing flashes of nudity in movies. If only we had objected more strenuously when tv began to depict disobedient, snarky children who treated their parents like embeciles as “cool”. If only we had objected when men began to be depicted as only useful idiots in the family circle.

We opened Pandora’s box a long time ago. There’s no such thing as taking a naughty peek and closing the lid again. We’re just now realizing that life does indeed imitate art. Just as we older folks respected and looked up to our heroes who always won out over the bad guys; our children and grandchildren will look up to theirs. Only theirs will be the likes of Kaitlyn Jenner and folks like us will be the bad guys.

I immediately shut down anything that celebrates that kind of perversion, along with the stupid sex scenes that put the whole plot on hold for five minutes for no apparent reason. But all the while, I know I’m not the target nor the objective and it makes me sad to think what kind of world my children and grandchildren are going to have to navigate if Christ tarries His Coming.

Hollywood has always been political...but I think today more than ever before they are clearly 'an extension' of the Obama administration.....and fully entrenched in Progressive ideology.
