The point of this movie is to produce the SHAM that homosexuality is a "relationship" rather than a sexual fetish like any other. (ie sex with sheep)

Goeobles could not have done it better.

Rupert Everett and Tom Cruise were busy.


LOL. A gay scientologist cowboy with an ultrasound paddle? This is getting too creepy.

Hollywood worships the liberal/gay agenda but they worship money even more.

I'm becoming convinced that this isn't true. I'm becoming more and more convinced that their only goal is to destroy the hated bourgesoisie, and profit be damned. They're all a bunch of socialists anyway.

EVERY SINGLE TIME I hear about this movie I flash to that South Park episode -- wonder if Matt and Trey are clairvoyant! Wish I had that Southpark picture of their two cowboys eating pudding. Honestly, who can take a movie seriously that was parodied three years before it ever came out?

Oh, you bad! :-D

The thing that makes Brokeback Mountain such a breakthrough and significant western is that unlike most westerns in Brokeback Mountain the good guys get it in the end.

Forget the Oscars. Ignore them. Hollywood means nothing. They serve nothing but trash.

They aren't exactly the John Wayne type, are they?

Are they cowboys with pimples?

Wretching like Puking? If that is what he meant, it doesn't work in that sentence.However, I would probably do some wretching if I had to sit through this movie.

I know. I just keep thinking...
Cowboy#1-"HEY,I'm out of Puddin'"
Cowboy#2-"you can share mine."
Cowboy#1-"I'm bored what do we do now?"
Cowboy#2-"Let's explore our sexuality!"

I love that episode.

Yeah, I guess those are the "terms of endearment" but the talking head used "love-making". You know, the P.C. route.

It's going to be great watching this piece of elitist crap bomb at the box office! Hollywood will never learn that Americans vote with their money and all of us "homophobes" won't be wasting it buying popcorn for this one.

Perhaps to remind viewers (and voters) that there is more to director Ang Lee's film than it's wretching portrait of a gay relationship...

I noticed that the bold-faced word seems rather out of context for an LA Times article, so I went to the source page and they have it as "wrenching" now. Did you make a transcription error or did they have to hastily correct that?

This thread is embarrassing. No wonder some people think Republicans are Neanderthals. Dick Cheney has a gay daughter for crying out loud. What is the point of attacking a movie most here haven't seen, in the most childish way, with crude jokes, etc? I just don't get it.
