Superman: Flying to a church near you

[Graybeard]

Baltimore, Maryland (CNN) - As the new Superman movie takes flight this weekend, filmmakers are hoping the Man of Steel lands not only in theaters, but also in pulpits.
Warner Bros. Studios is aggressively marketing "Man of Steel" to Christian pastors, inviting them to early screenings, creating Father’s Day discussion guides and producing special film trailers that focus on the faith-friendly angles of the movie.




“When I sat and listened to the movie I actually saw it was the story of Christ, and the love of God was weaved into the story," said the pastor.

Yeah... I'm sure the marketing department at Warner Brothers is deeply concerned about the Christian gospel.

They are actively marketing the movie to pastors and providing free screenings for them. They also have a website with sermon outlines and clips to show during Sunday service. So the Christian element of the film is no coincidence.
