Of course those who would be offended could just not watch it and let those who find it funny watch to their hearts content.

Interesting that I don’t hear conservatives trying to get this banned. And they say we’re intolerant

Guess I'll miss that premier.

Nothing appeals, especially the part about looking over my shoulder while waiting in line for tickets.

Back door, of course.

Apparently Brokeback Mountain apparently wasn’t enough. This seems to fit a pattern.

There is absolutely no way "Brokeback Mountain" could be considered a comedy, much less a romantic comedy.

Like its going to be a blockbuster hit like GWTW or Starwars? Its going to be DOA in spite of the hype. Its OK to be straight, you don’t have to feel guilty for being so. Different cultures for different folks exist all over the planet, and yes, they will also exist on Mars when it becomes the new home for man. (That is, if the Chinese let us in. They may own it before we get there.)

LOL! I posted my comment before I got to yours. Brilliant minds and all that. Then again, nearly everything on nutzflix eventually has a gay moment any more. Is the current (lacking) administration a warning for more and harsher lessons if we don’t straighten up?

I’m at the stage where I don’t even know who this obnoxious Trump hater is. There are enough older celebs who fall into the same category and I now throw all pop culture into the same basket for convenience sake. The basic bottom line is I am nowhere close to spending and sending money to the big culture organs I once did.

My family and I will be waiting with bated breath for this movie to come out. I don’t mind standing in line 24 hours to get tickets in what is sure to be the blockbuster of the year, if not decade.

Hooray for Hollywood!!

(do I really need the /s tag?)

The heavy-handiness (Anything by Ang Lee in general for that matter IMOOP) made it a black comedy for me, especially what was occurring behind the scenes with Ledger and Williams.

Poster up the thread mentioned 'The Birdcage' but I think the article is referring to an original work.

Just remember when you go see those Star Wars and Marvel movies, that is what subsidizes this crap.

Agree. That’s why I don’t watch any of that emotionally manipulative garbage. Effing comic book crap.

[...] you had to completely forget that Spawn, Blade, and to a lesser extent Steel were all superhero movies with black characters played by black leads in the 1990’s.

Shaft - 1971!

Who's the black private dick

That's a sex machine to all the chicks?

Shaft!

You're damn right

Who is the man

That would risk his neck for his brother man?

Shaft!

Can ya dig it?

Who's the cat that won't cop out

When there's danger all about

Shaft!

Right on

You see this cat Shaft is a bad mother--

Shut your mouth!

But I'm talkin' about Shaft

Then we can dig it

He's a complicated man

But no one understands him but his woman

John Shaft

Admittedly not a "super-hero" in the conventional sense, but...

Regards,

I’m not chewing my nails in suspense waiting to hear if they do the brokeback thing. I don’t care. I see enough gay stuff on The Big Bang Theory (very subtle, but hard to avoid.)

a love story about "two gay men maybe, possibly, probably stumbling towards love. Maybe. They're both very busy,"

That sounds like a poor plot for a normal romantic movie, why would having it be two dudes make it any better?
