With Summer blockbusters all over the place anyone found the opportunity to use them to reach others for Christ? Curious as movies such as Hancock, The Dark Knight who have men who sacrifice there selves for others lends it self to speaking about Christ.
 
well good for you as I didn't see the connection. :smt023

Like all evangelical opportunities that reap the most I find the most natural not forced conversations the best and to be sensitive and prayerful as the Holy Spirit does tell you when and what to say and when not to force it.
If your friend comments on it or wants to talk about the film then they are good points to make even if it is just that one liner.
 
Although its now at least 5 or more years old, how about the M. Night Shyamalyn film "Signs" - the one with Mel Gibson and one of those Phoenix brothers. That film had some extremely interesting dialogue such as the "what if there are no co-incidences speech" by the Mel Gibson character. For the Christian, this speech as echoes of the matter of divine sovereignty - the degree to which, and the way in which, God "scripts" our lives.
