I have read on the site Libertas that Hollywood is now flooded with gay-themed scripts.
It doesn't matter that Brokeback is not a money-maker. There is plenty to be made by scriptwriters and agents from payments from the film industry's deep pockets.
They don't care if a film is popular or not. So, although I hope for films like these, I don't see a lot of scripts being offered on these subjects. I hope I'm wrong.
Even if a film loses money in domestic release, the film industry makes megabucks releasing the film to international markets that are enamored of US films.

Unfortunately, it is and has been for weeks. Its budget was around $16M.
As for Nanny McPhee, I saw it with my two daughters yesterday. Enertaining, but no masterpiece.
