Tossing this out for a discussion. 

Speaking as an entertainment writer, I can pretty well say that we're one of the few demographic groups that Hollywood (et al) feels comfortable in mocking and making fun of. 

So if we want positive representation that isn't a fluke, we'll need to start doing it ourselves. 

In what was would everyone here represent the faith in a positive fashion if they were working on media intended to be mainstream?

I’m actually fine being made fun of. I think the best way to lower public opinion of you is to take a joke seriously. 
 

If we can laugh at ourselves with everyone else, then we win.

Biopics on Members of the Church in various things (For example, it's been a while but perhaps on the life of Dale Murphy, or on Mitt Romney).

Have a Saint who's also a Superhero??  A story where a Saint is a good person who helps others and is respected, perhaps.
