Ok, movie fans, it’s time to vote on your favorite Mormon-themed movies. After several days of voting, M* will announce our choice as the best Mormon-themed movie, based on the poll results and our own set of random artistic criteria.
Here are the movies (we are open to other suggestions, but anybody suggesting “The Book of Mormon Movie” gets banned).
In no particular order:

Vote, brothers and sisters!
Anon, I agree that most of Napoleon Dynamite is very much in character. The glaring exception I mentioned would have been much more accurate if replaced with vitamins, homeopathic remedies, health/fitness gadgets, or some other quasi-respectable MLM scheme. Marketing of the material that was chosen would cause a young person to lose his respectability in a small town overnight.
I don’t doubt that there are such people in small Idaho towns, but they would now doubt be older and be of the same sort that would consider a position in the pornography industry an attractive career move.
I agree that Saturday’s Warrior should rank among the top (if not the top) truly LDS themed movies ever made.
Of course it was a stage production long before it was a movie…
Our votes are for “Emma” and the first in the “Work and the Glory” series.
