honestly Jay, what the fuck are you talking about? You're just building up a double edged sword for ANY filmmaker, anywhere, who wants to either make a film about gay characters, or make a "straight" film (as you so ignorantly call it, since when do movies have a sexual fucking orientation?) that happens to include gay characters. When will you ever be satisfied? Does every movie have to be Brokeback Mountain for you, to be considered worthy? Or do you enjoy the super high-brow caliber of classics like "Not Another Gay Movie", which paints us all as twinky-queen-ovesexualized-fem-faggots?
Maybe Thad and his boyfriend are used as a device in this movie, but they're there. We're there. We're everywhere. And sometimes we just glance at each other instead of kiss. Whoa - shocker. And sometimes we fuck each other in the asshole. And sometimes we don't. Depends what I'm feeling like that day.
Ugh, people like you will never be satisfied. Sometimes you just have to grow a pair and take things at face-value, I promise you might just enjoy your life a bit more.

ehhh.... fishing. I was expecting a multiple-second bit about how opposed he is to wrapping it up. Mountains? Molehills? Anyone?

So, if you're a Dark Knight fan AND a homosexual, that means you got 2 days off this week??

Sue Galloway has an incredible one-woman show. You should go see it.

I bet it's JUST as cruel to put the monkey in the ball a 100 times to get the shot right as it would be to smuggle him into the country that way.

Haters will never get hate-watching. I agree with you, the show, the plot, the characters, and the ridiculous traits they all have is absolutely ABSURD..... but I still find it wildly entertaining.... perhaps for all of those reasons.

Jason - the only movie I EVER left during was Hamlet 2. God! What a shitfest that was.

The Bertolli ads.... no words... she was explaining to viewers WHY what they had just seen was funny.

LOL I think you greatly misinterpreted his point. I think he's pointing to the fact that most gay characters in films are present because of precisely that -- they're gay. It's rare to come across a gay character in films whose sexual orientation doesn't serve as an important plot point. Most gay characters are in movies so the other characters can discuss how they're gay.
I can think of one example where this doesn't really hold true, which is in the film "Little Miss Sunshine". Steve Carrell's character is gay (and it's mentioned) but it hardly serves as a crucial plot device. We learn a lot of other things about his background and his heartbreak, but the details are not exclusive to gay people, if you know what I'm trying to say.
"Not Another Gay Movie" was horrible and I've never seen "Brokeback Mountain," but I think you completely missed Jay's point.
