Re: Is America ready for Gay Cowboys on the Big Screen?
When I first saw this preview in theatres, I was seriously disgusted with the reactions of the people around me. I was sitting next to these two girls who were friends of friends and they were like laughing and being like, "omg..! so gross..!" etc, and there were similar reactions to be heard and seen from other people in the threatre as well. It seriously made me...angry in some way. Granted these girls and most of the other people I saw react this way were younger and probably somewhat immature, but it still pisses me off.
I don't know if America is "ready" or not, but I think more films or other forms of media showing homosexuals as "real people" and in a positive light is a good thing for America, whether they're ready or not. GoT

Re: Is America ready for Gay Cowboys on the Big Screen?
In the trailer, there was a lot of cuddling and close to kissing between the two. While I have nothing against gays, it makes me uncomfortable, for the same reason some gay people find heterosexual activities physically repulsive. The only way I'll be seeing this movie is if my gf forces it upon me, and she might because she really likes gay guys kissing etc. Is America ready for it? Absolutely not. If it hasn't started already, wait for the masses of right-wing Christian rallies and [censored] against the gay media corrupting our children.

IMO, behind closed doors the Christian Right is probably watching much worse stuff than this.
More along the lines of "Whos Your Daddy: Little Pink Butt Butts Vols.1-36"

Re: Is America ready for Gay Cowboys on the Big Screen?
The question is who will go and see it with someone
1) Is this a "date movie" 2) Is this a "going with your buddy to the movie" movie. 3) is this a movie that a guy and his wife BOTH pick to go to (out of all the other movies)? 4) Is it a "chick flick" I am not sure it is going to do well Earl: Hey Bubba, wanna go see Brokeback Mountain? Bubba: I dunno, any ninjas or car chases? Earl, No Bubba, it's the touching story of forbidden man on man love set in the rustic beauty of Montana. The village voice gave it 4 stars Bubba: Uh, Earl. We can't be friends no more. Not that there's anything wrong with that. LLL
