Wow, "Lonesome Dove".  My wife had that on tape, and we spent a night not watching it several times when we started dating.  Now our code phrase, is "....so do you want to watch 'Lonesome Dove'"?

Info nobody cares about (Brokeback)....

My wife is trying to be 'open minded' and thinks she could deal with two guys making out on screen.

However, she's not sure if she will want to see the movie because they are having an affair.

You're all pathetic..all o' ya!

Tough guys, Alpha males, yet whining about movies, on a bbs dedicated to intertards pretending to be WW2 avaitors. I've never seen a more pitiful, or pitiless sight.

Careful, Dr. Phil's OTW to your door with the reality check.

Well Red, it may seem a little silly for the conservative members of these boards to get so worked up about what, to you, are just a bunch of movies which no one is compelled to watch.

On the other hand, while our attacks may seem silly to you, ask yourself the following question;  If Hollywood's attempts at social engineering were moving hard right, would I be leading the charge?

See, and therein lies the heart of the problem exactly.
Hollywood attemptimg social engineering under the guise of calling it "art"

Now it can be argued that Hollywood has attemted social engineering to the right as alot of your old movies were religious based.
IT certainly would seem so by our modern eyes.
But I contend this would be inaccurate as when those movies were made we were a far more religious based society then we are now. So those movies appealed to the masses better because the majority of people could relate to the message.

The fact remains that by far, the vast majority of the population  is not gay.
The Vast majority of the people cannot relate to a movie about gays.
And of that vast majority. the vast majority of people do not see being gay, and  gay men in particular, as being normal behaviour.

Now it may be normal to gays. But its not normal to the rest of us.
Its also easy to say that to the majority, the thought of two men having sex or kissing, most people find utterly repulsive.
I know speaking for myself the very thought makes me want to puke.

What hollywood is attempting is not art. But social engineering and forced acceptance. And doing it to a people who is nowhere near willing to accept outright, this type of lifestyle.
 We tolerate it because we see little point in doing otherwise.
But we dont want to see it. And we certainly dont want it in movies or on TV. And we dont want it flaunted in our faces.
Like I said. We tolerate it only because we see little point in doing otherwise. But the vast majority, reguardless of what people claim. do not accept it as being normal.
And we dont want Hollywood attempting social engineeering to make us think it is.
Death is no easy answer
For those who wish to know
Ask those who have been before you
What fate the future holds
It ain't pretty

red bottom, sandie and blue ***** are the ones who are putting the wrong emphasis on this.

It is not a few homphobes whining about a great movie... it is allmost the entire nation laughing at hollywood and their obvious agenda.

All but a very small minority of us in this country (and probly world cept your-0-peeans) find a movie... worse... a boring drama, about male homo part time sheephearders in canada to be something to avoid..

We would have avoided it quietly with maybe a snicker but...  the liberal hoolyweird gay boys keep shoving it in our face and telling us what brutes we are for not going to see it...  when it comes out on video (probly in weeks) there will be another big push...  blockbuster will have dozens of copies that no one will rent.

and who is dr phil and why is fd ski going on about some chelo player named yo yo that no one has heard of?

The social engineering argument is paranoid nonsense. If this were really the goal, Hollywood would be making films with a mass-market appeal but with a subliminal subtext that promoted the social engineering agenda. Instead you have films like Brokeback which are unlikely to appeal to anyone outside of a certain demographic which amount to little more than preaching to the choir.

Still, it makes a nice straw man for lying goons like Coulter and her fanbois to rail against.

momus... I think you are being silly.  No one said that it was an overt and organized agenda for social engineering..

More like.... there is a huge gay and liberal population in the movie industry and, like anyone... they make what they like even if catering to the public would serve them better... they simply work a lot harder to get these gay projects out and to make them the best that they can and to promote them.

If they wanted to make more money they would spend half that effort on kids films.

Actually Lazs, both Shukins and DREDIOCK attributed films like Brokeback to attempted social engineering on the part of moviemakers. Social engineering is by definition "organized" but not necessarily "overt".

So what are all these films promoting homosexuality and other "liberal" agenda items. Details please. Lets have some facts to support the hyperbole.  Here's the release schedule for 2005. Why don't you just pick out the movies you think have the type of agenda you're describing, then express the total as a proportion of the total films released. That should give a rough indication of how much effort the industry is really putting into promoting this agenda you ascribe to it.

Over to you...

See.... You guys don't say anything about the acting,... say nothing about the cenimatography,  I read nothing about the music, editing or any number of things that make movies besides ONE plot point.

You are the ones hung up on that one plot point.  I wonder why?  Maybe it's the anti-gay republican agenda?

That makes as much sense as balmeing hollywood without a shred of rational critique.

And what about Midnight Cowboy?   Why haven't you been complaining about that movie for the last 30 years?

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0064665/   It won 3 Oscars

Maybe it was good acting? or something else they might appreciate ... like directing ...

Brokeback got nominated for best adapted screen play.... but then agin, it is a good writer.....

You are all obbessed with a plot point so much, that apprently nothing else that goes into movies matters at all.
