'Brokeback Mountain': Fags in lust

There, fixed!

[nmh]

So how many $$$ did it bring in?

I don't see any $$$ figures!

What a bunch of liars. It's a flop and they KNOW it.

[ConservativeDude]

Difficult to know where to begin in trashing a piece like this....

[MNJohnnie]

Broken (in) Back Mountain is about SHEEP HERDERS. Not real sure how "macho" sheep herding is viewed as being.

>>"Gay" has nothing to do with lifestyle. And rather than coming out of the closet to make a declaration of individuality or identity, most of us "come out" so that we can share the gift of love openly with another individual.<<

LOLOLOLOL!

Oh this writer has GOT to be kidding!
Gay has EVERYTHING to do with lifestyle. Every gay person I know, including my own sister, does everything they can to be in your face.

Cut me a break.

A four million dollar gross is not surviving.

I think the thing that may keep interest in Brokeback Mountain are the superb acting performance by Heath Ledger, the excellent directing, and the flat-out great cinematography, all of which could get Oscar nominations. Even Michael Medved--who much-disliked the subject matter of the movie--loved these these aspects of the movie.

most of us "come out" so that we can share the gift of love openly with another individual.

As Howie Carr (Boston talk show host) says in paraphrasing Oscar Wilde: "the love that dare not speak its name just won't shut up".

TY! SAY IT AIN'T SO!!

I can't believe he endorses this "Backdoor Mountin'" flick! Ugh! Isn't Jewel keeping him satisfied, or did he kick her out making her homeless again?

As I understand it Ty is NOT a working cowboy, he's a rodeo cowboy; big difference.

>>>Or it might have to do with Hollywood hunks Heath Ledger and Jake Gyllenhaal and their huge female fan bases. >>>

Watching the adorable Heath Ledger in a trailer for Casanova last night made me think of Brokeback Mtn. I decided (for the umpteenth time) that I, as a female, would probably want to throw up if I saw him kissing a man.

So I don't care how cute they think these two are, not many women would be ok watching (or dear God listening to them) do it.

"I find that the beauty of this film lies in its navigating away from stereotypes"

What? The notion that all gays are noble, tragic victims isn't a stereotype? Since when?

[308MBR]

Yes, it just could be all three cities are chock full of faggots.

DOH!

On a per capita basis, there probably aren't as many in those three places as in Atlanta.

[linda_22003]

I can't even count all the different threads there are about this movie. Why so much fascination?

[AZ_Cowboy]

be cowboys, herding sheep in Wyoming

Does the Cattlemen have to put out a press release to straighten these people out, or what?

It just goes to show you what a pack of idiots these people really are. It takes more than a hat and jeans to make one a cowboy.

Their lack of knowledge of history is truly amazing.

Obviously, the flick will do well in gay-friendly and predominantly liberal urban areas.

[Krodg]

Would these programs help in showing the normality of being gay?

There is nothing normal about being gay.

[MarineBrat]

Would these programs help in showing the normality of being gay? Or would many viewers come away thinking that we were indeed "different"?

Weeeellllll...... hmmmm. So many ways to begin here....

[Semper Paratus]

Don't expect any sequels like "Return to Brokeback Mountain".

[bannedfromdu]

I can't wait for the sequel RUMP RANGERS RIDE THE RANGE.

[Adrastus]

"Cowboys herding sheep"??? There's your first clue that something is screwed up here. Then it goes on....

[MaDeuce]

Brokeback Mount-ing ... where the cowboys ride their horses with the saddle on backwards cause the saddle horn needs to be "in the rear". ;o)
