I said the "Book of Daniel" was actually dead on arrival. And...so is Geena (Hillary Clinton) Davis in "Commander-in-Chief"! And...I was right. I have also said the the movie "Brokeback Mountain" will do more damage to gays then it will do good. While the movie is being raved about by the left-wing, liberal, gay, Democrat sorts, the fact is, the only reason has it has good revenue stream is that gays and left-wing Democrats are seeing it over and over again to drive the dollar numbers up. Same scenerio via Fahrenheit 911. $119M in revenue, but beaten into the ground by a $100K political ad produced by the Swift Boat Vets.

Gays like Democrats always overreach, and you will see that time will undo "Brokeback Mountain" the same way Fahrenheit 911 had no political impact whatsoever. You cannot pee down most folks backs and tell them it's raining. It just does not work. The films of the day, Munich, Syriana, Good Night & Good Luck, Brokeback Mountain are all dead on arrival. Check out the revenue numbers. Now a muscle movie, like Disney's "Narnia" sitting at close to $300M domestically and another $300M internationally should be a winner because it was a great picture about the forces of family and, evil versus good. Methinks, and this is only a hunch, the Academy will award the best picture to "Walk the Line" (June Carter & Johnny Cash) We shall see. I think "Hollywood" is getting nervous!!! I have nothing against gays, but really, fags just don't cut it in the "real" world of common folk!!!

On new years day an article in the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel featured a futurist predicting that future generations would look back on Brokeback Mountain as the catalyst that got gay marriage accepted. Then the poor, arrogant man actually said that 2006 was the year that everyone would realize that one of their friends is gay.

Who does he think would be seeing this movie that would have their minds changed? How many people who oppose gay marriage has he actually talked to? And people say the President lives in a bubble.

Exactly.

Re: Buttbroke Mountin', check my #85 from three weeks ago. To add to your several solid points, those pounding BM in the MSM forget that every future homo movie will be held up to BM's box office numbers and found sorely lacking. And then the high-pitched whine from the DUmmies will revert to the usual Red State Hate. And Transamerica? Hasn't even done a million domestic! The pillow biters are too busy spinning the BM turnstiles.
Re: "Commander in Chief", see my prediction in #36 that the show wouldn't get picked up for a second season -- can you beat Sept, 2005 for forecasting the show's demise? Admittedly, it was no difficult task:

Isn't Sutherland cast as the Republican to President Geena Davis in the upcoming barforama "Commander In Chief"?
"Previews generating negative buzz. Apparently Davis can't carry an hour.
Supposedly, the show also lacks the 'uplifting' governmental win-win deal-brokering segments that carried "West Wing" to idol status among Libs.
I give it a single season, if only because of Disney's need to save face on this one."
BONUS ROUND - Re: My prediction in #36 -- "Buhbye" and "FU", West Wing. Maybe Sheen can take up drinking again...
