Default Are you going to see Brokeback Mountain.

I am conflicted... you can find info about the movie here...

on one hand, this is a gay cowboy movie - there is at least one min. of dudes kissing, from what I understand.

On the other hand, I understand Anne Hathaway makes a topless appearance.

and to add to the conflict - Ang Lee and James Schamus also made Crouching Tiger/Hidden Dragon - One of my fav. all time films - but then they also made lamo Hulk.

I haven't decided yet - with this info....what will you do?

It's getting incredible reviews across the board. Check out this Metacritic score. I think it's about way more than just two gay cowboys; it encompasses a lot -- and at the Toronto Film Festival, it got a standing ovation and had grown straight men weeping, evidently.

I think it'll be awesome. Homophobes and philistines can stay away; everyone else will probably love it. (BTW, The Hulk is the only bad Ang Lee film -- he also did The Ice Storm and Eat, Drink, Man, Woman).

It's about gay cowboys eating pudding.

I giggle like a teenage girl everytime someone mentions this movie. Title is so close to "Bareback Mountain."

As a heterosexual male, I'm not sure which is more repulsive...two guys kissing or Anne Hathaway topless.

Wow.

So basically you would choose not to see a movie simply because you're that bothered by dudes kissing.

Secure much?

There's nothing wrong with that. Its not just an "I'm feeling rather fat today" insecurity. I watch Will & Grace ocassionally, and I may see this movie when it comes out on video. But I still find two men kissing repulsive.
