Psychedelics are illegal not because a loving government is concerned that you may jump out of a third story window. Psychedelics are illegal because they dissolve opinion structures and culturally laid down models of behavior and information processing.

Eh whatever. Fuck you guys. I want to see the movie. If you're so ignorant that it makes you think I'm gay, you're not the type of person whom I give a shit whether you think I'm gay or not anyway. So go to hell.
Those who know me best know there's no way I'm gay (at least they'd better, you fucking assholes!) -Straight Man who wants to see a good movie where two men kiss 'cause he's not so homophobic that he can't handle it |

Let's say, hypothetically, that it doesn't matter that this movie is about two fags. There's still the matter that this is a love story, a chick flick, and you want to go see it.
That, in and of itself, is quite gay. |

Fair enough. I wouldn't call this a "chick flick" though. Seredipity. That's a chick flick. 10 Reasons Why I Hate You. Chick Flick. Brokeback Mountain. Award winning movie that is by and large a love story. I'm guessing if each of you wrote out a list of your Top 20 or 30 favorite movies, we'd find something on there that could be classified as a "love story". Except you, ID. You have no soul.

so my friend and i went to see this movie last night.
it was a decent movie. although the ending pretty much sucked, the rest of the movie was not too bad. the gay scenes weren't as bad as we were led to believe and the filmmaker countered those by showing two sets of naked boobs. the princess diaries chick and the dawsons creek chick both showed boobage.... my friend and i laughed out loud a couple times.. no one else did though so it may have been more the comments one or the other of us was making, or the rest of the theater just had zero sense of humor. as i said, the movie wasn't bad, it was pretty good, but had the movie not been about gay cowboys, it wouldn't even had made a blip on any award show radars. oh, and guys, there weere men in the audience, with women even. and one guy that came to see it by himself.. he was probably gay... (and crying at the end of the movie) |

Thoughts: - I hated it for about the first 45 minutes. Or however long they were on Brokeback Mountain. I wasn't into the characters. At that point, to me it was nothing but watching Jake Ghlynhall and Heath Ledger be gay with each other, which weirded me out and made me feel uncomfortable. Leaving the theatre honestly crossed my mind since the movie was dragging on so slow and mostly consisted of two gay guys alone on a mountain together. - After they left the mountain and the plot started to become more than just "two guys trapped on a mountain fucking each other", I really began to get into the movie. When they got wives and faced problems, their characters began to lure me into the movie and I started to enjoy it some. - By the time it was over the whole "gay cowboy" thing was the last thing on my mind. I'd expect this to be the case for about anyone. Sure, at first it's weird and lame and uncomfortable, but once you get over it and just watch the movie, it's actually a very damn good story. - Before seeing this I didn't think it was possible for anyone to give Joaquin Phoenix any competition for Best Actor. Now that I've seen this, I think Heath Ledger can (and maybe even should) win that award rather than Joaquin. - One area I thought the movie lacked was make-up. The story starts with Heath and Jake at the age of 19, which is relatively believable. By the end, they're supposed to be 39, and I just don't think the creators did a very good job making them look 39. They still had their boyish faces only with some longer sideburns and fake beer-guts. Pretty lame in this area considering what Hollywood is capable of doing. - In conclusion, I liked it, and I can see why it's going to win a bunch of awards. It wasn't really my kind of movie. It's a lot like last year's winner Million Dollar Baby in the way that it makes you feel as you leave the theatre (sorta sad and heart-empty). I liked MDB much better 'cause that's about a female boxer being trained by Clint Eastwood, whereas this is about two gay cowboys. But for what it was, I found it enjoyable I suppose... | |
