Just because a movie is made about gay people doesn't mean that homosexuality is being promoted, although it should be promoted a hell of alot more. It should be shoved in your faces. Homosexuals should be yelling at you 'We are here, and we are here to stay' so all you homophobes should get used to that.

Christ, no wonder the world is full of homophobic dumb ****s, bashing the shit of others who simply have different preferences. 🙄

Shoved in my face? What would that accomplish, other than further alienation? Thats one thing that is very annoying about gay people---they're loud and so in yo' face about everything.

I can honestly say that I think Utah and Alabama did the right thing by banning that movie altogether. Too bad the other 48 states didn't follow suit.

Yep. And black people are even louder and are more likely to steal your ride.

Oh yes, let's follow hickville "lowest rate of graduation in the country" Alabama and Mormon "I LOVE polygamy!" Utah. 🙄

I would ban stupid people...

imho, usual movie, with a very predictable end. Important because of society and tolerance, but not really something i would call a wonderful film. From the hype everybody was making, i thought it would be way better.

Objection: relevance?

What does that have to do with banning a movie?

Utah is a beautiful well-educated state thats very diverse, and you're exaggerating about 'Bama. Too bad the other states didn't follow.

There are no valid grounds for banning this movie. The only reasons are ignorance, prejudice and idiocy.

With that same thought, you can say there is no valid grounds for banning ANY movie-----but the reason for banning this one is easier to understand and makes more sense.

Sense? What sense? You don't like homosexuals fine. I find this incredibly ironic since you're half-black as well. Should we ban rap albums and African-themed movies as well? It makes sense. They're highly immoral and they promote the degradation of women, the proliferation of drugs and the glorification of crime.

If you compare and ordinate the ills of homosexuals to blacks, blacks win by friggin landslide.

Your arguement has no point. You're a highly prejudiced invividual against homosexuals. You don't a movie about them in the media.

Here's a quick question: Why have movies about genocide, the Holocaust, rape, crime, violence, pedophilia and several other thousand ills of society yet homosexuality is so completely taboo and somehow worse than all of the aforementioned combined.

Diverse? You speak of diversity when you wish to ban a movie based on a group of people. Hypocrite.

Typical frat boys. They don't think. 🙄

In all actuality, that wouldn't get to me that much--I actually identify more with being Hawaiian than Black. Just like the Rock, I look way more Polynesian than Black, and I was born and raised there so its more my cultural upbringing and what I relate to.

Yes, I know you're Hawaiian. I read your profile. I also know the cultural backgrounds of Hawaiians and other islanders. Islanders are typically very homophobic. With good reason back then, since

A) If they accepted gays, the population would stagnant or decrease. It's not like they could travel much...

B) Children had a very high mortality rate back then. So women needed spit out babies like rapid-fire.

Impressive, where did you learn that?

As for "A", Hawaiians were the best navigators of the pacific--we did trade and commerce from New Zealand to the shores of South America.

Now I'm not homophobic, but as a person who was born and bred in Arizona (which is the epitome of the southwest), I honestly can say that this movie is an affront to cowboy culture and the entire cowboy genre. I'm pretty sure that John Wayne is rolling over in his grave because of this movie. Neither the Duke, nor Burt Lancaster would do this movie if they were alive and in their prime, and neither would Eastwood for that matter. Which is why they had to find a couple of pansies like Gyllenhall and Ledger. The fact that it was directed by a Chinese national is relevent, because he likely doesnt fully understand cowboy culture.

Being directly south of Utah I wonder why we wouldnt ban the movie either....its probably because we share such a large border with California-aka-30 million liberals.

Quite frankly.....I'm just waiting for the DVD to be released so that I can skip the chapter in which the two gay cowboys are making out.

I won't comment on the movie since I haven't seen it. And reviews and other people's comments won't divert my honest and direct opinion.

But I'm willing to bet that if this movie would have feature two very largely obese and ugly looking actors....there wouldn't be any hype. They need two good looking actors to play the roles of homosexuals cowboys.....I'm not surprise.

Cowboys aren't suppose to look like soft baby face. They're rough and tough....

...coming soon a review!

*waits for the DVD*

Which is exactly what those two actors are, ese.

Theyre not exactly Wayne or Eastwood.

I grew up watching Cowboys actors like Eastwood, Lee Van Cleef, Charles Bronson, and Gary Cooper...just to mention a few of them. Tough as nails.... actors. 😉

👆

I think the reason Lee settled for Jake and Heath, is because tougher, more manlier actors refused to do it. I really cant picture any of the cowboy actors you named doing Brokeback Mountain. And I'm not completely unconvinced that Jake and Heath are not gay-curious, and that this movie was an opportunity for them to act it out.

Simon Limon! 😉

In this country there is no valid reason for banning movies. Film is art and with it comes rights of expression and creativity. It makes less sense banning this film because of some gay material, which honestly is done all in good taste, rather than a film of horrific violence. Only in a society full of idiots, retards, hillbilly's, and prejudice rednecks wo think to men consentually kissing is worse and more offensive than rape. I can just predict your logic - "Well rape between a man and a woman is better then consentual sex between two men". This mentality just scream "I'm a closet homosexual too afraid that I might LIKE what I see".

I'm betting that you haven't even seen the movie, and all predesposed opinions of this movie are based on obvious ignorance and prejudice and possibly fear of what the film portray's. Thus, your opinions carries no credibility seeing as you're basing it on the films subject matter, rather than the film itself. All the more reason people SHOULD see it, so foolish opinions such as yours become worthless to more and more people, as it should be.
