I lay down this challenge before Hollywood directors and producers:

=====================

I DARE you to make a quality movie with the following characteristics:

1. No nudity, near-nudity, or sexual situations
2. No glorification of promiscuity, drugs, or adultery
3. No ridiculing of America, Christianity, or morality
4. Parents portrayed as authority figures, not as bumbling sidekicks to their worldly-wise children
5. Minimum profanity (including NO religious profanity: G-d, J.C.) and no 4-letter words. Violence okay, if depicting good combatting evil
6. A quality story, with good acting and good dialogue

My prediction: not one director/producer would accept this dare. Why? Would it be because it's not possible to make such a film?

No, that's not the reason; American cinema has a fine history of such films. No, the reason they wouldn't accept the dare is because such a film would not advance their leftist agendas.

Pixar films fall into most of those categories I would say. But those conditions would exclude a great deal of great movies. Not everything can be for children.

Sounds like the Spiderman movies, or last year's Incredibles.

I agree with all your requirements, especially #6, but as to 'violence is ok as long as it's combating evil', that pretty much covers most of the violence in movies.

It's the depiction of violence that turns people off. It used to be someone got shot, the body went down, and that's all you saw. Now you get the spurting blood, the intestines falling out, etc ...

"Diary of a Mad Black Woman" seems to meet your six characteristics. The movie even portrays people falling in love and NOT having sex before marriage because they're Christian.

I DARE you to make a quality movie with the following characteristics:

Peter Jackson did it. The reason Hollywood doesn't is because they just don't want to.

I believe the Lord of the Rings triology follows this description pretty well

I enjoyed "Fantastic Four" but was saddened that it included the totally superfluous use of "g-damn". In a film marketed for kids? I say, "Tender ears!" (It was extremely offensive to me, too, as an adult.) They didn't have to do that. It makes me less likely to go back to the cineplex, when I gave them a chance to appeal to me, a consumer, and they slap my religious convictions in the face.

I'd like to see the film again, but only if it is run thru the censorship people who produce copies that cut out offensive moments.
