Saw Brokeback Mountain - GoFuckYourself.com

Overhyped bullshit.

A slow, slow movie with too many frivilous scenes that do nothing to advance or connect the story that often jump like they had to edit a lot to get the movie down to it's already excruciating 2 hours to the anti-climatic double fucked up ending. If this is "the best movie of the year" I am not going back to the theater

The only real positive review I can give the movie is that the 2 leads made for nice eye candy. I would have called the 45 miles we had to travel each way to see it a total waste had we not stopped by a Circuit City and I picked up a couple of DVDs, a double disc set of all of the "School House Rock!" with a slew of bonus features and the new 2 disc "Wizard of Oz" set with 10 hours of bonus features.

Did they show up close, sweaty bum fucking action? Was it almost like smellivision?

RayBonga · 02-02-2006, 11:55 AM

You should see Bareback Mountain, much better.

Actually, the only nudity during a sex scene was with a man and woman...

Mr Dickovitch · 02-02-2006, 12:03 PM

Did you bring a blanket to masturbate under why you watched?

Lord Nelson · 02-02-2006, 12:04 PM

did you enjoy the cumshot scene?

Schoolhouse Rock is great!

pr0 · 02-02-2006, 12:07 PM

J3XO · 02-02-2006, 12:10 PM

ZZzzzzzzz

d00t · 02-02-2006, 12:19 PM

There's 46 of those suckers. I knew when I saw that on the package there would be many that I have never seen. We've watched the main disc twice, gonna hit the bonus features tonight

I enjoyed it but don't think it is the best movie I have ever seen. I think it was a very 'world cinema' feel movie for American cinema and that is what a lot of people are being mystified by. I think Jake did a better job than Heath and I think the direction was very good. However, I still don't get why it is heroic for a straight actor to play gay. It would be a bunch bigger 'victory' if it was a film with gay themes with gay actors that got such publicity.

All of ten seconds where you didn't actuall see anything? There was more boobs in the movie than dicks.

uno · 02-02-2006, 12:51 PM

So it converted you, eh?

*yes I know you're already gay. That is the joke.

Jake and his jeans were the best thing in the movie

I guess I was expecting a bittersweet, perhaps humor tinged movie, but although it had it's moments it was labored. There were too many scenes that if edited out or replaced with ones concentrating on the central characters and brought down to about 90 minutes would make a much more enjoyable film. I was close to nodding a couple of times.

Between all the riding around we did and sitting in the theater so long my lower back was killing me and in the last 30 minutes of the movie I was thinking more how nice it would be to go lie down, so that may have clouded my positives with the movie. I'll probably give it another shot when it hits DVD or the movie channels.

Luckily I didn't have to travel far to see it. It was an interesting audience I saw it in. Almost everyone was old ladies wearing AIDS ribbons. It was like I was seeing the ghost of my christmas future.

There were some bits that really got me but I did feel that it jumped into the relationship too fast. Like there was no reason at the time it happened for it to happen from what the narrative had shown us at that point. I haven't read the story it is based on to know if there is more buildup in the story. Once that happened I was okay with the rest of the film aslong as I kept reminding myself it was the 1960's. Though, I did think a few times it was set in the same state Matthew Sheppard was killed in so perhaps it hasn't moved on all that much.

For a kick check out the IMDB message board for the movie..some people have seen it ten ore more times in the cinema. Looks like it is hitting a certain group (mostly younger) of the gay community who are just happy to be represented at all.

Wouldn't some people freak if GLBT themed films were released proportionate to the population?

Brokeback Mountain is certainly not the "shove it down your throat" homosexual agenda many right-wingers have tried to cast it (especially as previously noted that the only remotely "explicit" sex scenes are heterosexual).

Hollywood has produced solidly entertaining gay-themed films like "Torch Song Trilogy", "La Cage Au Folles", "The Ritz", "To Wong Foo", "Priscilla"... I'm not sure gay actors or directors/producers would have made Brokeback Mountan a better film but perhaps a gay editor would have been a hell of a start

Well, atleast Priscilla won one Oscar...and made the Matrix more comical for me as I kept expecting agent smith to offer people wo-man cosmetics.

Violetta · 02-02-2006, 03:42 PM

It is not on my "must see" list!

Doctor Dre · 02-02-2006, 04:22 PM

My friend went to see this movie... he expected a western or something... then he saw the dude get fucked in the ass, left the fuck out and tried to get a refound lol

bjjb · 02-02-2006, 04:25 PM

So which one dies in the end and how? AIDS?

either he lives on mars or was just trying to cover up why he went to see it

I'm just wondering if the Oscars will grants the best picture award to a film with an overtly gay subject
