Movieguide, a conservative reviewing magazine, recently reported to movie-industry executives that films "with a very strong Christian worldview" earned nearly twice as much in 2001 as movies it categorized as "humanist, pagan, Romantic, Communist, feminist, occult, homosexual or anti-patriotic."

The next time someone liberal wag tells you that Hollywood doesn't have an agenda and that it's all about big money, cite this stat.

What fantastic news! If I were Mr. Anschutz, I'd get myself a troupe of highly-skilled body guards. This is exactly the kind of enterprise the commie-libs can't tolerate. May Almighty God watch over and protect him.

Of course, the key here, is the way that Movieguide chooses to categorize movies... Frankly, I doubt that this stat would hold up under scrutiny - otherwise there would be a ton of Christian movies out there making a bunch of money.

Please! Get a Grip! Somehow I don't think the Producers of "Touched By An Angel" are being pursued by hit men from other Networks, and frankly I think the animous you portray here misses the mark by light years. I've heard many people you would paint as "commie libs" praising PAX TV, and echoing what I said earlier about people stepping up to the plate and doing it rather than sitting back and whining about it.

Quite frankly, there are countless storylines out there waiting to be brought to the screen which would accomplish what you'd like to see. Stories of Heroism, Adventure, Life Changing events, Miracles, and a myriad of other topics which could not only present a Conservative viewpoint, but draw an audience as well.

However, care should be given not to make the Dogma/Ideology the driving force behind making the movie in the first place. They need to start by making the Movie they want to see. Basically, the kind of movie where the viewer can check their own Ideology at the door, and be entertained, not preached at.

Face it, you don't like it when the "commie libs" do it, what makes it any better when Conservatives do it?
