I never liked outright prohibitions of going to the movies, but throughout my years, I'd look at the fashionable media outlets and ask myself "seriously?" Hopefully the church learns to better differentiate between those who are merely different from us in our applications, and those who are actively (e.g. Disney) working to undermine Biblical positions.
