This was looong before the Narnia/Christian word-of-mouth marketing. My then fiancee and I were very particular about our wedding and spent a lot of time planning music/scripture readings/everything we could to create a certain atmosphere (in fact we may have gone a little over the top). It was, if I may say so, a truly beautiful, reverant, and joyful ceremony. Then the pastor stood up and starts his thing with "In the movie Rocky..." Yep...he based our wedding homily on Rocky... and that was without Rockyresources. Quick little story about Rocky’s presence in sermons.

Just because we are Christians and want to support movies with a good message doesn't mean we will put up with it being a bad film. You still have to make a GREAT movie.
