Pan vs. Hook
One of the major themes or ideas in religion is the struggle between good and evil. Almost every religion has its own story of their god or gods in an altercation with an evil entity. The battle between David and Goliath is a good example of this in the bible.
This theme is also played out in many movies. One movie in particular is Hook. The Robin Williams film telling the story of Peter Pan clearly depicts the classic struggle. Peter, representative of good, has to bring down Captain Hook, the evil nemesis.
I think that the movies featuring this theme will always be around and always make money because everyone always wants to see the good guy, usually the under-dog, eventually overtake and defeat the villain. I think that this movie will remain a favorite for many years.
