Well now, M, I've been very busy these last five years collating information on various religious, political, and social matters, and I haven't given a great deal of thought to it, but I think it's because the Mormon Church is more easily portrayed as an oppressed people, and the Catholic Church is more easily portrayed as an oppressor. It's the price to be paid for being the largest Christian denomination in the world. The Mormon trek to Utah can be spun like the Book of Exodus, with Mormons being abused because they are different until they finally make it to their own "promised land." It's just my theory, and combined with a fistful of loose change it will get you cup of coffee almost anywhere in the world....except perhaps for Salt Lake City. Have you ever seen that movie "The Avenging Angel" from 1995? It was pretty good. As Mormon murder mystery movies go, I cannot remember seeing a better one.  If the Mormons actually do get more favorable treatment in Hollywood productions, I guess this might be a reasonable explanation. I have not perceived this to be the case, and think it might just be an assumption made out of the paranoa of the person starting this thread.
