I know I will get flamed and many will say "who can they pick who hasn't done some nude scene in the past?" (on it's own I think this is a sad commentary on what "acting" has become). But regardless, I find this disappointing and counter to Walt's sensibilities for the company, (after all he spearheaded the live action production side to begin with).

Percy Jackson & the Olympians: The Lightning Thief? Inkheart? The Golden Compass? Spiderwick Chronicles? A Series of Unfortunate Events? Bridge to Terebithia? It seems there is collusion between studios AND the audience. If there's a familiar name or word in the title, there's a better chance it will get made, and a better chance it will be seen. (Of course, it doesn't hurt if it's a good movie.)

Hell, Julie Andrews was topless in a film. I guess they should stop selling Mary Poppins DVDs, right?
