Who the hell came up with this survey? Honestly what kind of moron believes that every statistic relates to everything else.
Did any of these brainiacs take into context that Finding Nemo and Toy Story 2 were rated G as opposed to R for Hannibal and American Pie? Meaning that a movie rated G has a lot more audience than one rated R. It's no secret that G rated Disney animated vehicles open and earn bigger than R rated movies. And what idiot compared "My Big Fat Greek Wedding" to "Spider Man". An independent movie with a $5 million budget vs. a special effects laden $140 million budget comic book character? In terms of profit Wedding wins. What stupidity, is this what the media has become? To try and lie to the public to stop making movies with sex in them. pathetic

Read the article, it says that the study was done by the Christian Film and Television Commission. Of course they will find such observations, they are a religious organization, and will want to show that sex is bad, and people reject it. The only reason these movies (finding nemo, toy story, spiderman) were hits was because they had a good story, or had a cult following. their success had nothing to do with the fact that there was no sex in those movies. Totally rubbish.
