Is nothing sacred?
« on: April 30, 2006, 10:20:10 PM »
I swear hollywood will not stop.  Nothing is sacred anymore.  One of the last bastions of machismo has finally been invaded by homos.  I am speaking of The Sopranos.  What, did they see all the rave reviews that Brokback got and figure why not work it into the plot line?  For real though why did it have to be Sopranos?  I don't watch the show to get my hollywood fix of homo subplot I watch it to see the violence, the boobs, and the underworld in general.  It's the last place you'd expect it BUT NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO they have to devote an entire seasonal subplot to it and worse almost half an eppisode.  

Seriously we are talking bout the mafia here and trying selling it:

Time spent on the last guy getting "whacked" about a minute.  
Time spent on this stupid subplot ending up with brokeback italiano almost 30 minutes.  

Wich do you think I want to tune in to watch?

I'd rather watch arty bucho act like the moron that he is for an entire epp than watch this crap.  Is it getting to the point where all shows now have to have some type of token gay subplot?

This isn't the first time gay stuff was part of the Sopranos. Remember when Meadows bf caught a glimps of some action by accident? I really don't think producer/writer David Chase is going to add a homo sub-plot just to appease Hollywood. I'd be inclined to wait and see how it all fits in; I have always found Sopranos a great series.

Either way, why get so upset Gun?

 (I'm not watching it this year; to get it I have to order the entire Movie pkg., which I don't want, so I'll buy the box set of Season 6 when it comes out)

Oh brother...get over it.  You're really that retardedly upset by anything homosexual that you get all huffy and have to make a ranting post about it?  The Sopranos has been loaded with stuff that has nothing to do with "ganstering", but is rather just part of normal life, that the characters deal with in their way, and that's just part of what makes the show interesting.

But clearly, since it's "the gay!!! OH NO!!!", the writers/producers/directors are just pandering and trying to draw in that Brokeback Mountain money.  Yeah, that, or it's a continuation of this subplot that started last season...two years ago.

To Vito getting whacked, not whacked off by the cook who makes "johhny cakes.  

I didnt really care for all the coverage of Vito searching for and finding  his next adventure. I don't want to see 2 guys kissing, I'm not homophobic, I'm just not gay.

It's called "Look Away"...  Use this step for a few moments, then look back...  If they're still kissing, cover your eyes say "oh Lord" or whatever, repeat.  If they are still at it after a few minutes chances are you're on the wrong channel ;)

It's the same plot line.  The guy that he saw was vito.  To me it's just dumb, why work in the homo plot line into the story?  Sure it was a good twist at first but then watching two guys roll around in the middle of a field is just too much.  It's not about looking away, it took up half the eppisode.

I wish the entire cast would get wacked and the show would end. I hate The Sopranos with a passion.

Full of freaking drama anyway, it may as well have teh gheys in it.

Yea.  Its only a matter of time before any TV show breaks down into some personal crusade.  I watch baseball and football and the stock market channel.  That seems to be safe from this type of garbage.

homosexuality is in vogue and to some, being associated with homosexuals is chic.  It will change when the pendulum swings again but sadly that will probably be after the US crumbles in upon itself.  we have become weak, rampant homosexuality as well as other libertine and hedonistic traits we as a society exhibit are but symptoms of a collective disorder which is rapidly leading to our societal demise.
