Brokeback Mountain

[eagle6]

Have you seen this movie? Will you see it, either in the theater or on DVD?

 

[Im-revived]

Never heard or seen it I must walk with my eyes shut

 

[HeatherJay]

I really don't think so. I just don't want my fanciful image of two such hottie actors being tainted by those mental images.

 

[Amélie Unbound]

I'm not planning to see it. I'm just not interested in it at all.

 

[Buttermilk]

I'm not a great fan of movies anyway (can't remember the last time I was at the pictures) so probably not

 

[Joseph E.]

I won't watch it either.

 

[Oblivious]

Watching two cowboys make out isn't my cup of tea....

I saw a headline recently online that claimed something like 80% of the American public was somewhat repulsed by this movie (or some such claim). Although I know very little about this movie, it does seem interesting that the other headlines claim it is getting all sorts of nominations and awards. I guess it is not the American public that decides the value of a movie.

 

[JPPT1974]

I wouldn't even pay a penny for that money
Not my cup of tea either!

Yes, it was nominated for several Oscars. It's just another example of liberal Hollywood embracing this crap. I guarantee you if the movie was based on a man and woman, no one would have every heard of it, it would have been nominated for zero awards, much less would it have had screen time at the theatres.

Just my $.02...

I went to see it because I like to see a nominated movies every so often. But I can honestly say it wasn't good at all. I really like artsy-deep movies but it was bad. It had almost no dialoge and it wasn't romantic. It was sad. There was one pretty graphic scene involving the two actors but you didn't see anything you just knew what they were doing. The scenery was gorgeous. But that was it. And I am pretty open minded.

I read the storyline review, and it just didn't appeal to me.

Judging from the plot, and the accolades it's gotten despite that plot, I'd say it's a pointed example of how the moviemakers' morals are finally being potrayed as "mainstream".

It's sad, and disgusting.

 

[JPPT1974]

I wouldn't pay one cent to see that movie
Since it promotes gays as well as say it is ok to be homosexual
When it is really not.

 

[Niels]

Not interested in the slightest.

 

[JulianaTheory]

No, I won't see it. I really really like Heath Ledger too. I was disappointed in him taking this role. Some say it's just a movie...I think when you're in these types of movies or watch them, you are putting your stamp of approval on them. Anyway, just my opinion.

I doubt I will watch it ....either in the theatre or at my home.

 

[wanderingone]

I saw it, excellent movie, good literary interpretation, just excruciatingly sad and lonely feeling throughout the whole movie. It will never be a favorite of mine, but neither would any other tragic romance be a favorite.

Just a note.. it doesn't "promote" anything.. really movies like The Family Stone have more scenarios portraying positive gay relationships than Brokeback Mountain and this is the first movie I've seen Heath Ledger in where he proved he could act. After Lords of Dogtown, Brother's Grimm and Casanova all seen last year along with Brokeback Mountain I'd have to say his Brokeback Mountain performance was the best of the lot.

I grew up in a small ranching town of 2,500 or so. Two gay cowboys is just something that my mind can't comprehend. I'm sure homosexuality has no bias towards cowboys, but dang, couldn't they come up with two gay dentists or something!!

Well... they're really shepherds.....

One of my dentists is gay.. maybe I can make a movie about him...

(actually considering he's originally from a country where being gay can earn a person a death sentence..... it might actually make for an interesting film)
