I second the recomendation for Dogma. Also check out American Pie/American Pie 2, South Park: Bigger, Longer and Uncut, Boys Don't Cry, and The Exorcist.
as well as stated views by its authorsSource?
The Onion: Who could you take in a fight?
Joss Whedon: God. I'm constantly yelling at Him. A lot of my writers are quite religious, and I'm always yelling, "Come on! Strike me down! Wuss!" I don't know why I have such anger toward somebody who doesn't exist.
Satisfied?
Woody: You are a TOY!!! You aren't the real Buzz Lightyear, you're an action figure! YOU are a CHILD'S PLAYTHING!
Buzz: You're a sad, strange little man, and you have my pity.
Do conversations like that sound familiar?Oh yeah. If I never heard that kind of condescension again, I would die a happy man.

Holadem - and end up in hell, I know.
Buzz Lightyear is a misguided atheist trying to make himself more important than he really is.
Woody understands that there is nothing more important than the love of the "Master," in this case Andy, and successfully shows Buzz that, in the end, it is only love that really matters. He really is "only" a toy, and a toy is a beautiful thing to be, just as a human is really only a human, not a god, and a human is a beautiful thing to be.There is one flaw in your analogy, Nick. In the movie, Buzz never denies the existance of Andy.
The "atheistic" interpretation of Toy Story could easily be turned on its head:Or its simply a movie about toys. Perhaps "G" rated movies should be labeled, "No one over the age of 11 may be admited because the've lost the innocence of a child and have to analyze everything in a frame work of their own choosing to make themselves appear intelligent"
Back on topic; did anyone mention Stargate ?

What movie did you end up showing? You really shouldn't restrict yourself to movies within the past 1-2 years. Some of the movie's you other guys have been suggesting like Last Temptation etc.. have been horrible.
Spiderman
Attack of the Clones
Monster's INC

Maybe something from the national Enquirer ?

Biting....tongue....head....may.....explode.....Hey, I don't mind if you let it out. Attack of the Clones, PG, not the greatest movie but it's recent and it entertains. The Last Temptation of Christ??! If you think it's acceptable to show Jesus lusting after and having sex with Mary Magdalene, let me ask you, what cult do you belong to?
