Hate to admit this but I was dragged by my SO to see broke back, and it's actually a decent movie. I could have used less graphic pup tent pounding, but the rest of the movie was pretty good...

"Beard Bags Bad Bo"

Poor Brad Pitt. Now he has to run out and get a special gift for his knocked up girlfriend.

For my wife's birthday I've decided to build a display case holding every one of my middle and high school athletic trophies. I figure the greatest gift I could give her is a daily reminder of what makes me so very awesome.

Next year I'm giving her the list I've compiled documenting every woman I've ever slept with along with written record of any nice things they may have had to say about my sexual prowess.

I think you may want to reconsider the overlap between that 18% and the people who watch Monk.

what the hell is a homophote?

oh god... if I dont even know what a homophote is--is it possible that I may be one and not even know it?!

oh god... if I dont even know what a homophote is--is it possible that I may be one and not even know it?!

Pssst! Buck Angel.

In the DC area, they're running commercials for Brokeback - with no suggestion whatsoever that the movie has anything to do with gay cowboys... Imagine the reaction of people who go based on the commercial... "honey, is that cowboy doing to that other cowboy what I think he's doing?"...

Homophobe - etymologically: homo (a genus) + phobe (one who fears) = one who fears beings from the genus homo (human beings (homo sapiens sapiens) and their ancestors (such as homo habilis, homo erectus, homo neanderthalensis)).

Joel Silver, box office ho? HAhahahahahaha. Would that be for Matrix II or III? Lethal Weapon IV? Wait, wait, I know, Hudson Hawk.

Joel Silver is one of the reasons people with actual taste decry the state of American film. And, as usual, in your backwards, bizarro world, you've somehow managed to confuse the pupose of "art" with the purpose of "business" . "Brokeback Mt." is in the former, whereas Joel Silver's movies are generally in the latter category. Brokeback makes you think and feel (something a conservative never wants anyone to do, because that might lead to action against or overloards), Joel Silver's movies are there to make money for the media corps.

Love your statistical analysis. Wow. You should buy a lottery ticket, if your that bad at math.

Next year I'm giving her the list I've compiled documenting every woman I've ever slept with along with written record of any nice things they may have had to say about my sexual prowess.

Gee, I'll bet that's a really short list.

Ba Dump bump.

Just kidding, it was actually a pretty funny comment.

Gee, I'll bet that's a really short list.

See, I knew I was setting myself up for this crack, but I went with the joke anyway.

Such is my level of dedication.

With all due respect to Ace, Larry's right. I suck.

Ace,
You went on and on about a week ago about how you weren't homophobic, then open your rant with this: "And, in case you haven't heard, Hollywood is grabbing its ankles for Brokeback Mountain."

Grabbing its ankles? (Wow, now who could possibly call that a gay bashing kind of comment?)

And when you say: "the public may be annoyed at such praise lavished upon such a mediocre, tedious movie"...what are you basing that on? Conversations with your fellow homophobic buddies (some of whom are probably still deep in their own closets...and who probably haven't seen the movie anyway.)

Why are you people so afraid of gays?

Larry the Retardite,

Yes, I really missed the distinction between art and business:

They always say make art that you yourself would like. But then, this is show business, not show kiss-up-to-Tim-Robbins-and-Meathead-from-All-in-the-Family.

I further missed by acknowledging Joel Silver as a "box office whore."

Wow. You're so smart. You tell me all the things I forgot to say, but actually did say, but they sound so much smarter when you drool them out.

Art? What is art? Is it feces on a painting of the Virgin Mary?

Looks like Mike is trying to stifle dissent.
I feel a chill wind...

Mike's accusing Ace of gay bashing becuase of a phrase Ace used. Mike's an idiot.

Bart:
Having someone like you call me an idiot is a badge of honor.

Why are you so afraid of gays, Bart?

You know, if you yourself are not gay, I guarantee you that someone in your family is...do you hate them, too?

Mike:"And when you say: "the public may be annoyed at such praise lavished upon such a mediocre, tedious movie"...what are you basing that on? Conversations with your fellow homophobic buddies (some of whom are probably still deep in their own closets...and who probably haven't seen the movie anyway.)"

Ace saw the movie dumbass. He didnt like it. But you cant accept the fact that someone might just not like a movie about gay people, can you? Its not that the movie sucked-- its just that people are so bigoted and closed minded, right?

God your a silly bitch.

Mike: How many times did you see BBM? Ace went to see it a guy and just to give it a fair review he stayed and watched it TWICE!

January, you dumbfuck...learn to read.

I never said Ace couldn't have an opinion, movies, like all forms of art, are subjective.

My comment related to him saying the "public" was annoyed. Unless, of course, you feel Ace speaks for the public...and based on what you write, you probably do.

Oh, and I notice you left out the "Grabbing its ankles" comment...what a surprise.

Ace went to see it a guy and just to give it a fair review he stayed and watched it TWICE!

Actually, im pretty sure Ace was too distracted by Allahs popcorn butter hand-jobs the first time to actually give the movie a fair review.

shawn,
You say: "Ace went to see it a guy..."

Sorry, Dude...that does not compute.

The family gets shirts!

Bart is afraid of gays because they turn him on.

Anyhow, disliking Brokeback Mountain doesn't make somebody a homophobe. And, by the way, if I were gay, I'd be worried at the lack of positive gay role models in movies. (And no, a married man having an affair is not a positive role model.)

January, you dumbfuck...learn to read.

Mike , You dumbfuck...learn to read. January is the month my comment was posted- not my name.

If you want to see a good gay movie, check out "Gohatto" aka "Taboo" the gay samurai movie. Pretty funny to see samurai fighting like high school kids over the samurai femme boy.

Guilty as charged. Bart can't get enough penis. Penis penis penis.

Correction. Ace didn't go see it with a guy. He went to see it with a GOD.

What is the latin for "fear of bad films"?

Possibly Bart is a bit wierded out by guys who like to have the fecal contents of their lower colon compacted with an erect penis.

Mike on the other hand is a classic case of a man who saw his father's uncircumsised penis as a youngster and the resulting neuroses from this event is playing itself out on AoSHQ.

Wait a minute. Am I afraid of homos or do I hate them?

Both?

Really?

Okay. I see. I fear the homo because I hate the homo.

What? Not right?

Ohhhh. Okay, I got in now. I hate the homo because I am a homo.

Gotcha. Thanks.

January (or whatever your fucking name is)...if you had the balls to post your name, I'd use it.

Dumb as a bag of rocks.

Let's see... about 3% (at most) of the population is gay, and about 15% of the population is so gay-crazy they wonder if they're homophotes

Why do you hate people who know how to spell, Ace? Why?*

My bad if this turns out to be a real word.

MynameisfuckingOthonotOtto, I like the cut of your jib.

"January (or whatever your fucking name is)...if you had the balls to post your name, I'd use it."

You may call me Amish. Or Daddy if thats your bag.

sandy burger,
I've never said not liking the movie makes one a homophobe.

It's the hateful or derisive comments, etc. that make me wonder about some on the blog.

Homophote = Buck Angel, a partial female-to-male transsexual known today in the porn world as "The Dude With a Pussy."

h/t Allah

January...as I said before:

No balls.

"Why are you so afraid of gays, Aaron Burr?Why?"

Who are you to judge what is hateful and derisive?

Who do you think you are? Hitler or Stalin?

Mike, I think "hateful" is a very strong word.

I too am baffled by some posters' aversion to homosexuality. But I don't think they should be shouted down or accused of hatefulness. They should merely be made fun of.

By the way, since we're on the subject for the umpteenth time, I should point out that not all gay men like anal sex. For those guys, sex means oral sex.

Sandy Burger -- the go to guy for all questions pertaining to gay sex.

You went on and on about a week ago about how you weren't homophobic, then open your rant with this: "And, in case you haven't heard, Hollywood is grabbing its ankles for Brokeback Mountain."

Grabbing its ankles? (Wow, now who could possibly call that a gay bashing kind of comment?)

Mike, Mike, Mike, why do you assume that this is a gay bashing comment? If indeed ace is ascribing gender roles to "Brokeback Mountain" and "Hollywood," why do you assume they are both male? Perhaps "Hollywood" is intended to symbolize a liberated and empowered woman, who, comfortable with her own sexuality, gleefully grabs her ankles for a nice bit of hetero-cornholing?

Very closed-minded of you, Mike.

Bart,
I'm not "judging" anything, you twit.

I said that I found some of the comments to be, what I feel are hateful and derisive.

If you don't agree, that's your perogative, but maybe you can test my theory.

The next time your with a male counterpart who you know is gay, ask them if they saw the ankle grabbing cowboy movie and see what they think.

(I'd say gay "friend," but I can't imagine you having friends.)

Ole' Mikey was complaining about this: And, in case you haven't heard, Hollywood is grabbing its ankles for Brokeback Mountain. I'm not sure how that translates to hatefulness. As to aversion to homosexuality, Ace made it clear that he and a number of people have an aversion to the actual act of homosexual sex. That's the norm.

Doug F,
Ahhh, and yet another moron rears his ugly head.

Just what we need.

shawn - the go to guy for all questions pertaining to transsexuals.

It is time to reframe the debate and end the erroneous symantic infiltration.

Technically, in latin, a gay-hater would translate:

hilaris (gay)
osor (hater)

hilarisosor

Write your own prehistoric reptile jokes.

Everything I learned about transsexuals, I learned from Allah and Rolling Stone.

Cut the shit, Sandy. Some poster here do not have an aversion to homosexuals. They, myself included, have a strong oppostition to the homosexual agenda -- the injection of the homosexual (or any sexual orientation) lifestyle into public school curriculum and the lobbying for extra rights.

shawn,
Yeah, yeah, yeah...we ALL know that when Ace said:

"Hollywood is grabbing its ankles for Brokeback Mountain"

He merely commenting on "an aversion to homosexuality."

Much like we ALL know Saddam was the mastermind behind 9/11.

Duh.

shawn, don't forget NYPD Blue. Did that show EVER do an episode without trannie hookers?

No, he is stating that Hollywood is being dictated to by gay activists as to the type of movies they will make instead of by the type of movies people will go to see. He believes the excessive praise for BBM is b.s. As someone already commented, when the advertising for a movie is deceptive, something is wrong.

Mike has every right to be offended by that line, just as Ace had every right to write it, and the commenters have every right to shrug off Mike's criticisms. If there was any entertainment value in continuing, I'd be all for it, but all we have here is tedious reprisals of earlier comments.

Like every other thread involving gays.

So can we just move on and focus on, say, lists of gifts by the self-absorbed?

Cut the shit, Sandy.

Can't be done, Bart. This is who I am. It's genetic. What are you, intolerant?

By the way, since we're on the subject for the umpteenth time, I should point out that not all gay men like anal sex. For those guys, sex means oral sex.

Pheewww! That's comforting! I guess now you'll all see me at the next gay pride parade riding the giant papier-mache penis (uncircumsised) next to the cowboy/sheepherder in assless chaps and the transvestite that looks like Abe Vigoda in a wig.

"The next time your with a male counterpart who you know is gay, ask them if they saw the ankle grabbing cowboy movie and see what they think.

(I'd say gay "friend," but I can't imagine you having friends.)"

Well, Ace used to be roomates with a close friend who:

1) is gay
2) would laugh his ass of at that comment
3) I'm sure also found the movie tedious

Bart,
You keep making inane comments that identify you as nothing but another right wing homophobe.

As in: "They, myself included, have a strong oppostition to the homosexual agenda -- the injection of the homosexual (or any sexual orientation) lifestyle into public school curriculum and the lobbying for extra rights."

Gays are injecting "homosexuality lifestyles" into public schools?

And are lobbying for "extra rights"??

What you REALLY mean is this: You don't want to accept them as they are and you certainly don't want them to enjoy same rights every other American is granted by the constitution.

Keep this tucked away in that little mind of yours: Everyone has a friend, a relative or both that are gay...they just may not know it...yet.

steve_in_hb,
Again, I have no doubt there are gays who would think it was funny and again, movies are subjective.

But I think if you're going to say things like that, it might be a good idea to make sure they're already a good friend before you try it out.

But, hey...why not stop into a gay bar the next time your out on the town and give it a shot...unless of course you feel it would be embarrassing to have a gay man kick the living shit out of you.

that's your perogative

Mike, good on you for challenging shawn for dropping the word "with". I've been trying to get that fag to slap together a coherent sentence for weeks now.

by the way, it's prerogative.

I knew you would want to know that, being, anal and all you'll pardon the funnay

If you think gay people are going to be so offended by the line: And, in case you haven't heard, Hollywood is grabbing its ankles for Brokeback Mountain. that they would assault people, you don't know many gay people or many gay people well. Homophobe.

You keep making inane comments that identify you as nothing but another right wing homophobe.

Well gee, Mike, since you put it that way, I see now that you're right and Bart is wrong. Dumbass.

What you REALLY mean is this: You don't want to accept them as they are and you certainly don't want them to enjoy same rights every other American is granted by the constitution.

See, that's a straw-man argument. I have never heard Bart suggesting that homosexuals are less than human or should have their rights taken away from them.

As I understand it, Bart thinks that homosexuality is a psychological disorder. You may think he's wrong, as I do, but hyperventilating about right-wing extremists denying people their rights is just making you look stupid.

Keep this tucked away in that little mind of yours: Everyone has a friend, a relative or both that are gay...they just may not know it...yet.

That's just silly. It's true of many people, and it is not true for some people. And it's totally beside the point, anyhow.

Mike -

You really try to paint people as haters don't you.

"unless of course you feel it would be embarrassing to have a gay man kick the living shit out of you."

The not so subtle implication that I feel my masculinity is threated by homosexuals. Maybe thats because inside I'm afraid I'm gay, so I have to compensate.

Mike must thing all gay people are violent and easily provoked.

I'm typing like spurwing. Make that think, not thing.

Getting back on topic...

For Tom's 43rd birthday, Katie Holmes gave him a picture of Chris Klein weeping.

"Mike must think all gay people are violent and easily provoked."

God knows thats true. Just ask Roy Horn how vicious gays are, when provoked. That whole "tiger attack" thing was just a cover story. Siegfried nearly mauled Horn to death after Horn made an unfortunate "grabbing your ankles" joke.

A bunch of us have chipped in and gave Ace a photo of Mike bending over and grabbing his ankles.

No, Mike, what I REALLY mean is this: I want all gays to enjoy the same rights as I do, not make up bogus "gay rights" that are discriminatory against the rest of us.

A gay guy can not marry a man. Guess what? Neither can I!

I can marry a woman. Guess what? So can a gay guy!

It's all very simple. The definition of marriage is union between a man and a woman. All (unrelated) Americans share the right to marry. The problem is that gays want to redefine marriage. That's what I oppose. If that happens, what's next? Lawsuits by gays suing the Catholic church for a violating their Constitutional rights, thus forcing a religion to change its doctrine?

Of course I accept gays. I'm not fecking blind, you dummy. They're here. They're queer, and that's that. But there is no way I'll treat homosexuality as it some kind of race like White or Black. This isn't a civil rights issue, and that's exactly what you and your liberal friends are pretending it is.

People who engage in homosexuality are not a race of people. They are simply people who, for some "unknown reason" have intimate, (sexual in nature), relationships with the same sex.

I'd love to read the inscription for Losin' It.

Losin It inscription:

"I told Shelly Long not to leave Cheers. She just doesnt have the acting chops to carry a feature length film. And besides- that Ted Danson is a dreamboat. Bend over and grab your ankles Mr. Becker!"

Can't we all just get along?

For sheer stupidity and mind-numbingly boring exchanges, the conversation with Mike rivals the various engagements with PLV.

I can't figure out how anybody could really be a homophobe, I mean, how big a fag would you have to be to be afraid of a bunch of queers?

The chilling of dissent is felt most keenly by those wearing assless chaps.

I think by my tracking of the Tucson Film Office, we serve more pudding than Hollywood does.

It hasn't escaped my attention that Mike is short for Michael. I hope you're appropriately ashamed of yourself.

Other things I'll be getting my wife for her birthday:

-A scrapbook containing the 1st paystub following each my career raises.

-A book of poetry written by yours truly containing soaring prose about what a lucky gal she is to have met me.

-A 3 hour DVD of my mother telling stories about how cute a toddler I was.

-A "coupon" entitling her to give me "1 free blowjob" to be used any time she likes.

the conversation with Mike rivals the various engagements with PLV.

Yeah, except Pathetic Lying Virgin calls us fags, and Mike thinks we have fear of sameness. Well, that's the Donks' Big Tent for ya.

Dave in Texas,
Thanks, "typo-guy."

It's about time you wrote something that made sense.

And, God knows...content means nothing.

Mike, why do you change your name every time you come back?

> Brokeback makes you think and feel (something a conservative never wants anyone to do

It's funny 'cause it's true!

I learned a bunch 'bout art here.

So. . . how many people saw Grandma's Boy and that the natural order will be for Grandma's Boy quotes to slowly replace Anchorman quotes in the comments here?

Or do you have to talk about gay stuff to comment on this site?

Only little fagotty homoqueers spend their time trolling internet threads.

Hey Cowboy Blob could have gotten a job filming Gay Bed & Breakfast Of Terror if he wasn't such a homophobe.

Well,
I've accomplished my mission.

"Outing" the right wing homophobes on this blog...all, by the way, defending each other's right to post hateful comments about gays....and...just not quite sure of what it is they're saying that would offend anyone.

Right.

You people are really a sad bunch...and I hope your gay friends and relatives don't know what assholes you really are...but...I HAVE A FEELING THEY DO.

What I REALLY find amusing is this: Based on statistics (and it's only the wingnuts who say gays constitute 3% of the world's population), you can bet some of you are gay, but because you're afraid to admit it, you have to go along with these idiots.

I feel sorry for you, but maybe some day you'll have the guts to stand up to these morons.

Mike,

did you really not know how to spell prerogative?

oh man, I am so sorry.

really, I apologize.

Are there any other gay readers posting on this thing? Robbie? Log Cabin? Surely they must be offended too?

But I AM a homophobe. Gay cooties are a thousand times more lethal than girl cooties were when I was a kid.

Hey, that's his prerogative.

> hateful

You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.

What I REALLY find amusing is this: Based on statistics (and it's only the wingnuts who say gays constitute 3% of the world's population), you can bet some of you are gay...

....HEY YOU FAGS QUIT STARING AT MY ASS!

Well,
I've accomplished my mission.

Yes, yes you have. We're all quite bored now. Mission accomplished.

"Outing" the right wing homophobes on this blog...all, by the way, defending each other's right to post hateful comments about gays....and...just not quite sure of what it is they're saying that would offend anyone.

What's that? I nodded off there for a section? Oh, something about "outing" a bunch of people posting under fake handles? Yes, quite the accomplishment. Here are some crayons to chew on.

You people are really a sad bunch...and I hope your gay friends and relatives don't know what assholes you really are...but...I HAVE A FEELING THEY DO.

Your use of ALL CAPS has shamed me into placing a rainbow flag bumper sticker on my car STARTING TOMORROW!

What I REALLY find amusing is people who assert opinion as fact and then cite "statistics" that they do not source as proof of this assertion.

I feel sorry for you, but maybe some day you'll have the guts to stand up to these morons.

Well, I don't feel sorry for you. I figure you're living the pathetic, miserable life you've earned for yourself.

I would feel sorry for your children if you had any, but I have a hard time believing that any female would choose to procreate with you. Besides, I think there's laws against that sort of thing in the case of people with your, uhm, special condition.

LIGHTEN UP, FRANCIS!

Are there any other gay readers posting on this thing?

I'm not gay, but since I have no problem with gay marriage (especially if both chicks are hot), I think I get an honorary guest pass.

And like that Mike has sashayed off to parts unknown...

Are there any other gay readers posting on this thing?

I haven't been paying attention. Has Monty weighed in yet?

The only people who dislike the gay agenda are people who are secretly gay themselves, but don't care to admit it?

How the fuck do you gain any traction in a circular argument like that?

Haven't you learned anything from Mike?

Everybody who posted on this thread is secretly gay, but spewing hatred to 1) deceive everybody else or 2) deceive themself

How the fuck do you gain any traction in a circular argument like that?

Mike lives in this fantasy world where he thinks I will wake up in the Twilight Zone.
In this alternate dimension, not only of sight and sound, but of mind, I will find myself the ONLY STRAIGHT MAN LEFT IN THE WORLD.

People will say "hateful" and "derisive" things to me.

Hey, hetero, why don't you go and have vaginal intercourse with your giirrrrlfriend.

Get out of here, straight-boy, you're too hetero to pick out curtains for your kitchen window.

Everybody who posted on this thread is secretly gay

Look, a compulsive yearning for Brewfan doesn't make me really gay. That's, like, a special case.

Everybody who posted on this thread is secretly gay, but spewing hatred to 1) deceive everybody else or 2) deceive themself

Does that apply to liberals who call conservatives "fags?"

Mike has inspired a new rating system for gay themed movies: A graphic of a 1 to 4 guys bent over and grabbing their ankles.

Is it just me, or does it seem like Mike didn't like us too much?

If he's right, doesn't that make him a homophobe?

Definitely. Because we are the REPUBLIFAGS.

TOM CRUISE got KATIE HOMES his DVDs but his BVDs belong to ELRON HUBBORT and other gay men are they going to ELRONS seceret underwater playhouse yet GLUB GLUB.

Mike lives in this fantasy world where he thinks I will wake up in the Twilight Zone.

To a true alpha heterosexual, this Twilight Zone world you're describing might as well be reality.

To answer one of Mike's earlier statements, yes I do have a gay family member, the son of my dad's cousin. This fellow distinguished himself by, along with his "partner", luring a 13 yr. old boy to his apartment with the promise of pot, then knocked him out with some kind of sedative, and finally proceeded, along with his "partner", to have sex with him. He served 5 yrs. upstate in the max-pen for this and whether he thinks I'm a homophobic asshole or not, is not a big concern to me.

Reading this thread, I am really glad I'm a woman so I don't have to worry about anything more than staying within my two cocktail limit.

Great another fag thread.

Is it just me, or does it seem like Mike didn't like us too much?

I don't think he liked his ankles.

To a true alpha heterosexual, this Twilight Zone world you're describing might as well be reality.

I've got this thing and it's working out for me.

Go out on my front porch, look out in any direction, and as far as the eye can see, you will not find a straight guy.

A gay guy can not marry a man. Guess what? Neither can I!
I can marry a woman. Guess what? So can a gay guy!

Wow bart you're a f'in genius

Sue,

too many caps.

close though, so close!

although the BVD DVD transmogrification was sweet.

I'm a straight woman and my asshole hurts from readling these comments...then again it could be I need some Preparation H.

Speaking of which, why don't we hear more about how itching, burning and inflamation ruins gays' sex lives?

Umm, no offense, but this scenario has a certain ring of expertise to it.

His one movie i liked was TOP GUN its too bad he has gone too liberal

Hey Bart! "The Bird" iz in da hizzouze.

Every time I come here, there's another thread about the homos.

Here's an idea: if you suck dick, keep it to yourself. Whether you're a guy or a girl. There's 3 or 4 people in the entire world that everybody can agree to enjoy imagining having sex. You aren't one of those three or four, so just fucking stop talking about it.

P.S. If your first instinct when you hear something contradictory to your worldview is to think, "you're just telling me who I can love", you have failed life. Please shoot yourself and try again in your next one.

We'll never capture the elusive Spurwing Plover. He skims the headlines and then drops a turd. Apparently he is not interested in entering a dialogue.

Ace,

You are really obsessed with Brokeback Mountain. Much more so than the average American, left or right.

Why is that?

I think you've got some issues, pal.

P.S. King Kong is a cracking good time... I notice you seem to have issues with that one too.

P.S.S it's really funny when you call people names like 'retardite'!! What are you, a 4th grader?

Ya gotta love it:

God providing instant bad karma to theis blog's homophobes??

"Brokeback Mountain" wins big at Golden Globes!!

"Brokeback's" haul included two of the top honors, best drama and best director for Ang Lee.
homophobes??

Yeah, Ace is 9-year old boy with his own blog. Right now, his main interests are politics, dungeons & dragons, dinosaurs, and primates.

The "obsession" with Brokeback is simply Ace acting out his disappointment with the movie. You can understand that as a little boy Ace was really looking forward to a movie about cowboys, not homosexuals who corral sheep and touch each other "down there."

Mike, are you serious?

Seriously.

God providing instant bad karma to theis blog's homophobes??

Doesn't this just underscore his original point - that a mediocre movie was being over-praised and over-promoted by a Hollywood out of touch with mainstream America.

The "grabbing the ankles" thing wasn't Ace's, by the way. He was quoting the headline of the source he used.

I just have to know. Given Eric Cartman's analysis of independent film vis-a-vis gay cowboys, was pudding involved?

There is something I have wondered for a long time, since it became "cool" for straight Hollywood actors to play gay roles (i.e. Kevin Kline and Magnum PI liplocking in "In and Out") Hollywood "minority" types get very indignant about white actors playing people of color - where is the outrage at the trend of straight males taking away roles from gay actors? Why is it disrespectful for a white actor to pretend to be Chinese by taking on stereotypical behavior and appearance, but a straight actor who acts like a stereotypical queer is celebrated?

Cowboys who herd sheep should be called SHEPHERDS! Cowboys (real ones, anyway) herd COWS!

Vie - could it be because gay actors don't want to be seen as "the gay actor" and thereafter doomed to play only gay roles?

"There is something I have wondered for a long time, since it became "cool" for straight Hollywood actors to play gay roles (i.e. Kevin Kline and Magnum PI liplocking in "In and Out") "

I think the scenario of your premise is flawed...

"Doesn't this just underscore his original point - that a mediocre movie was being over-praised and over-promoted by a Hollywood out of touch with mainstream America."

This already happened: it was called Philadelphia, also known as Jonathan Demme's Apology for Making Jame Gumb a Cross-Dressing Homo. "I would fuck me," indeed. Heh.
