Git along, li'l gerbils...git along, git along...
Were those 18-20 year old young men thinking of going to see it? I've seen the ads and it looks like a chick-flick to me. I wouldn't want to see it even if it weren't about homo shepherds. Maybe they think they can get a lot of women to go see it.
There was a movie a year or two ago that had as the central element a relationship between a 10 year old boy and Nicole Kidman. The ten year old was supposedly her deceased husband, so having them in the bathtub together was no big deal.
Hmmm...so one of the sodomite sheep herders gets it in the end TWICE? Wow.
If anybody wants to see a great Cowboy movie:
Starring one of the great American actors of our time...Robert Duvall
Go rent or buy "OPEN RANGE" on DVD.
No homos - none of the time.

I've just got to say that your post shows why liberals/lefties
hate, hate, hate, hate Freerepublic.
Keep up the good work!
Hollywood is so f---ed up... I'll bet Walking the Line won't win as many awards as Bareback Mounting. Johnny Cash was a good Christian, so was June Carter. Of course, Hollywood likes drug addicts, not FORMER drug addicts who find the right path.
"...reportedly causing viewers to change the way they feel about homosexual relationships and same-sex marriage."
Yeah....sure!! Only half-brains like Joe Farrah of WND should be afraid of a homo movie changing their views on "homosexual relationships and same-sex marriage." Most people have more sense than Farrah's gang......
That said, the studios are marketing this nonsense as a normal hetero movie to attract the non-pervert crowd. These desperate tricks will not work...
I never watch the Oscars, but can you imagine how sickening they are going to gush over this movie?
This and every other piece of garbage they celebrate with an award. I pretty much have decided that, if it won a lot of Golden Globes and Oscars, it's not fit for viewing. There are the occasional exceptions, but this rule of thumb works rather well.
I think the writer is suggesting that we can expect more 'homosexual acceptance advertising campaigns' patterned after cigarette commercials.
For example:
"Us homosexuals would rather swish than fight."
or
Winston tastes good....
Feel free to add your own.
Agreed. I think movie theater audiences by nature have a perverse sense of humor. I watched "Chronicles of Narnia" over the weekend, and the audience was laughing at some really strange times. I was pretty darn mad, too, because I wanted to hear the dialogue.
Great movie, BTW. They did a good job of sticking to the story. Several scenes left me saying, "That's exactly how I imagined it in the book."
And by that I mean Narnia, NOT Brokeback Mountain.
OK... so do they still think homosexuality is a filthy disease ridden lifestyle but they are now leaning more toward live and let live, or do they no longer think it's a filthy disease ridden lifestyle and think it's OkyDoky if their son does it???
please...
Jack dies in a freak accident (his wife tells Ennis a tire blew up while Jack was changing it, propelling the hubcap into his face and killing him)
I don't know, in an odd sort of way, this does seem somewhat like a comedy.
Hollywood has been making "critically acclaimed" movies that sympathetically portray perversion for years. Doesn't anyone remember "Midnight Cowboy" and "Pretty Woman" glamorizing prostitution? "Mystic River" attempts to make the audience sympathize with a man who murders an innocent man in cold blood, because he thinks the guy might have killed his daughter. "De Lovely" portrays Cole Porter as just another homo whose lifestyle is grand and whose wife loves him anyway, and makes her the heavy when she gets tired of his cheating on her with men and wants a baby. "Kill Bill" desensitizes the audience to horrible violence and gore, all fair in the name of "revenge." Critics loved these movies. Art is supposed to challenge the blandness of the bourgeoisie, dont'cha know.
