"Hey Sarge what's playing in the mess tent tonight?"

"Brokeback Mountain? Is it too late to volunteer for that IED defusing detail?

I just can't believe normal, heterosexual people would have any interest in this movie at all. I really don't know one person personally who has seen it or who wants to see it. My guess is quite a few homosexuals are seeing it more than once.

I just thought it was interesting that there was an article stating that it wouldn't be shown to the military and I was curious if any in the military would even want to see it.

Oh I know. They are lucky not to have to suffer seeing or hearing about it. Why can we be so lucky? LOL.

For all the hype, who has actually SEEN this movie?

One of my nurses at the dialysis center has, she said it was very boring and she didn't like the infidelity of the characters.

There sure were a lot of lesbians

That's the subject of the sequel: Really Butch Cassidy.

I don't know. You think the reporter for Stars & Stripes was wrong?

not a love story but a movie about two men with a sexual fetish around sheep.

This movie should have been rated NC-17.

Will walmart carry it?
Will it be in the porno section of the local vido store?


I bet the homoadvocates want it in the children's section.

There sure were a lot of lesbians in the Army.

Uh...here is something someone I know said one time when we were discussing females in the military....they are either lesbian, love the attention from the fellas (if you get my drift), or looking for a husband.....

flame suit activated...

What woman wants to see a movie about a married couple where the husband is pining for someone other than the faithful wife?
