Passion of the penguins 
March of the Conservatives: Penguin Film as Political Fodder: "'March of the Penguins,' the conservative film critic and radio host Michael Medved said in an interview, is 'the motion picture this summer that most passionately affirms traditional norms like monogamy, sacrifice and child rearing.'

Speaking of audiences who feel that movies ignore or belittle such themes, he added: 'This is the first movie they've enjoyed since 'The Passion of the Christ.' This is 'The 'Passion of the Penguins.' '"


You can also download a form here "to write down what God speaks to you as He speaks it to you" while watching the film. I am not so sure I want a baby penguin for Xmas anymore. Being an adoptive gay parent is hard--it's even harder when your chick is loaded with political meaning. Also see Prudish Penguins.
