Actually, from what I've seen, women aren't turned on by homosexual activity between two guys. At least not the way men will watch a show or movie just to see chicks make out.

^ Yeah.

Guys would much rather see two girls go at it than girls want to see two guys.

I have high-hopes for this film. The reviews are still extremely good and I am glad that there is still hype about it.

I love how it blows up in their face.

12/21/2005 1:09:27 PM

you're serioulsy ignorant if you think this movie is hyped because anti-gay people are complaining about it

12/21/2005 1:28:44 PM

^ Overall I think that is a small part. Controversy draws attention.

But by most accounts it is a great movie. It will be nice once it finally comes to a theater here.

12/21/2005 2:03:34 PM

ud say that cause you are a fag

12/21/2005 2:05:10 PM

^^you know, you could just put your $7 towards a gay porn dvd so you can pause and rewind the heiny-poking parts over and over. it sounds like that's your most economical move.

from what I've seen, they sure are.

Question for those who have seen the movie:

Just how explicit are the sex scenes? Reason I ask is because I would like to see the movie but my husband gets pretty grossed out by male on male action. Better as a rental?

12/29/2005 12:22:39 PM

jakey & heath are 2 hot guys imo & i'd do them in a flash - together too, if that's how it goes but i cringe / snicker when i see them making out in clips for this movie

Good article.

12/29/2005 2:27:09 PM

not really

12/29/2005 5:34:52 PM

there's plenty of explicit anal penetration in this movie.

in fact, the whole two hours is pretty much a continuous ass pounding

12/29/2005 6:35:30 PM

OK so I read the story this weekend, it was in an anthology I had

that's right, a 10 or 20 page SHORT STORY got fleshed out into a feature length film?

wtf.

fuck that! i'm only down if it's wholesome & sweet anal p scene, atleast make me believe they are in love!

12/29/2005 7:27:34 PM

^^The Shawshank Redemption and Memento were short stories that were made into feature length films. This is nothing new.

12/29/2005 7:46:09 PM

not to mention Apt Pupil & Stand by Me ( in the same King novela as Shawshank was ))

12/29/2005 7:47:15 PM

^^ didn't know that.

perhaps what's most surprising is I read the story first.

Ha! That article was gay ( ),

Quote :

"the media should be examining why it’s OK to play a rapist, a demon, a vampire from hell, a serial killer who eats his victims with fava beans and nice chianti, or any of the hundreds of sick, warped, twisted characters Hollywood puts out and we gobble up."

That is a pretty idiotic statement. In any of those roles, the actor doesn't actually have to kill or rape people... it's acting. I'm not an actor, but I would guess that having to actually kiss/makeout with another man, even though you're acting, would be a hard thing to do. Not to mention they would also have to face the asshats (like other people on here) who now harbor some hatred against those actors for playing gay people.

12/30/2005 2:51:21 AM

when does this come out?
or did it and i just didn't see it playing anywhere around here?

1/2/2006 8:13:02 PM

gay

1/6/2006 8:24:52 AM

too me its a chick flick or a date type movie because its more of a romance, ehh whatever i just can't believe that Larry "Lonesome Dove" McMurtry co-wrote the screenplay. I probably won't see it though, not big on romance movies.

I walked into Churchills as the Rialto showing was letting out.

Lots of pairs of men holding hands, some in cowboy hats. Weird crowd for a western.

1/6/2006 1:45:25 PM

So did anybody see it today?

1/6/2006 10:54:52 PM

gay

1/7/2006 9:26:39 AM

i went to see it and it was sold out

1/7/2006 10:21:10 AM

omg, is gay like the new non-gay or something?

Went by there with 10 mins to spare, but the line was so far down the street that I gave up on it. Maybe I'll try a matinee showing sometime. Couldn't find any other theatres on http://www.triangle.com/ that are showing the movie in raleigh or cary.

1/7/2006 10:47:16 PM

holy shit
the line tonight was absurd.

i wonder if i will ever see this movie.

1/7/2006 10:52:43 PM

I saw it tonight at the Rialto. Had to get tix a few hours in advance, though. It was a great movie - very delicate and subtle. The sex scenes were brief and nothing too vulgar was shown. It was more tasteful than I had anticipated.

1/7/2006 11:04:56 PM

Really? You mean there wasn't full frontal buttfucking?!? IN AN ANG LEE FILM?!?!?!?!

It's done ridiculously well in Raleigh so far. Go see it at the Rialto. If anybody goes to see it when it opens at Crossroads, I will personally murder them twice.

1/7/2006 11:19:09 PM

the government is gay profiling for this movie

1/8/2006 12:37:16 PM

does the Rialto only have one theater?

1/8/2006 1:34:56 PM

I went and saw Brokeback for the first time with 4 friends of mine...and yeah I can see why it's getting Oscar buzz....its' not some lame gay story..it's about much more, and VERY WORTH THE 2 plus hours of viewing it...we're going to go back and view it.. KICK ASS MOVIE!

1/8/2006 1:59:40 PM

^^ Yeah, the Rialto is one screen.

It's playing at the Realto in Raleigh, at the Carolina Theatre in Durham, and at some independant theatre on Franklin St. in Chapel-hill.
