I liked that book quite a bit. I probably won't see this movie, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

uruviel Posted December 12, 2005 Share Posted December 12, 2005 yeah, brokeback mountain, a story about 2 cowboys (Jake Gyllenhaal and Heath legder) who fall in love and then get married to other women and can't be together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheOliverOrder88 Posted December 12, 2005 Share Posted December 12, 2005 And Hollywood is pulling this one for the Best Picture Award already. Personally, I don't think this will be that good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Rick777 Posted December 13, 2005 Share Posted December 13, 2005 Hollywood was quick to embrace this movie which was not at all a surprise. Its being hailed as groundbreaking, emotional, and a moving inspiring love story........... i would call it a movie that involves very grave sin.

jezic Posted December 13, 2005 Share Posted December 13, 2005 From what i have heard, it doesn't sound good (morality wise). Though the most likely thing is that it will open the flood gates for a whole bunch of new major motion pictures about this stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jezic Posted December 13, 2005 Share Posted December 13, 2005 though really without the trash it sounds like it would be a good movie. I wish we could change the plot a little bit and make it better. (i.e. they could meet and share spiritual conversations or some randomly Catholic thing) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ash Wednesday Posted December 13, 2005 Share Posted December 13, 2005 The problem is that this movie, along with "Million Dollar Baby" and the issue of euthanasia -- doesn't come across to many as overtly wrong because they are able to use emotions to pull at the strings of a viewer's heart. But as we know, "feelings" aren't the same as reason and conscience. I could probably watch the movie and somehow feel sorrow for the emotional turmoil that the characters would experience with being gay -- but I could come away from it and say the movie had some good intentions but is in favor of a reality that is intrinsically flawed. Unfortunately I know that not a lot of viewers will do this, and as was mentioned before, you probably will start seeing more sad "love stories" such as this coming out of Hollywood.

(sorry, couldn't resist) [right][snapback]822973[/snapback][/right] [/quote] Yeah, I saw an interview with those South Park guys where they discussed that. (Cartman was a prophet!) Seriously, though, I lost respect for Ang Lee after The Incredible Hulk. Unfortunately, I think that in today's social/political climate, the easiest way to become a critic's darling is to make a "sensitive" movie about homosexuality.
