And Brokeback is why Jake Gyllenhaal is on my banned list.

Last year, movies with no homosexual content made more than $8.799 billion, while movies with some homosexual content made about $.998 billion, according to the study by Movieguide. Movies with strong or frequent homosexual references made about $.386 billion, and movies with heavy homosexual content earned a paltry $.084 billion, for a total of about $1.468 billion. The organization said similar findings occurred in 2014 and 2013.

A meaningless comparison statistically speaking, without the breakdown of the nons and cons.

Homowood ruined the entire James Bond franchise. “What makes you think I haven’t tried.” Soon, Bond will be outed as gay even though he’s been with hundreds of women. They ruined “The Walking Dead” which was already running out of ideas. They ruined “American Horror Story” which was a great serial gore and horror flick.

The rest of “all gay all the time” crap is old. It’s a cheap trick to be “edgy” but no one cares any more.

omnisexual seems to be in.

I saw an ad for microwave food that had two men talking about spanking their food . . . Please, just stop!!

The Movieguide study analyzed the content of 847 movies released from 2013 through 2015, according to the calendar year box office, “before the annual awards season hype can skew the box office numbers of certain movies, which happened with movies like Brokeback Mountain and Black Swan.”

I have watched movies on Netflix that looked good at first with good plot lines, acting, and then they drop that crap in and I just turn the channel in disgust. Can’t stand the faggotrization of Hollywood and the media these days.

I find the same thing happening in fiction books. Anything in the past few years almost always has some gay couple or scene or something and it is never central to the plot and just gratuitous.

Who would have guessed that with the gay population at only about five percent maximum, not a whole lot of people would have been interested in spending good money on movies featuring subject matter about gays....

They don’t care about money; the cult is deep. Oh, sure, they won’t toss money away forever....but the desire to change culture into a downward spiral is a big goal of the billionaire “entertainment” moguls.

So they happily sacrifice money for some forays into perversions of all sorts.

The good news is this: Hollywood has been having a terrible couple of years.

No matter what you do on the stage
Keep it light, keep it bright, keep it gay!
Whether it’s murder, mayhem or rage
Don’t complain, it’s a pain
Keep it gay!

No one wants to see two dudes kissing! Only horn dog teen boys find two females kissing to be attractive.

Excellent points, except the second one must be qualified by having the two females' being figments of the imagination, rather than what most lesbians look like.

Witness. Stopped watching AHS mid-episode this week. Probably won't go back.

I had an aunt who was a lesbian. She was a very productive physician, highly regarded as a diagnostician, but ... what they really look like: stout, businesslike, short gray hair, and mean when drunk.
