Concerning Shirk

The imam at last weeks Jumuah was discussing shirk (associating partners with God) and how it is everywhere. In movies, sport and a myriad of entertainment vehicles. He stated that Hollywood is very blatant when it comes to propagating shirk. So this got me thinking, what if Tinseltown really went all out with this. And before I get any hate-mail (or anonymous formspring vitriol) im not undermining the essence or severity of shirk, merely thinking about what the imam said. I did a similar post four years ago (geez ive been blogging for a while) where I replaced a word in a movie title with Gandhi. I want to tweak this so that its more than just a title, but also a synopsis, quote or tagline. As with all my posts, please feel free to add some in the comments section
