    OK, here I go.

    Brokeback Mountain might be a really good movie. I wouldn't know or care to know because I am not into the whole "Hey I'm a super-mature guy and content with my sexuality, so I don't care what people think" type of thing. I just don't care to see naked-cowboy sword fighting thank you very much.

    The only reason this movie is up for Best Picture, is because some a$$hole decided to really push the envelope. THAT IS THE ONLY REASON!!

    Thank you and good-night.

People who like it like it because it's a good movie, not because there are gay men in it.
        ok jmood ill bite on that.

        #1 it is about gay cowboys. anyway you want to twist it bottom line it is about gay men who are cowboys.

        #2 i never said it wasnt worth being nominated.

        #3 i like the way how you try to throw the "i must be obsessed with gay men" thing on me, but thats nto going to work.

        #4 newsflash but people ARE infatuated with homosexuality especially lately, unlike you i dont ignore that and i was only speaking the truth, whether i think the movie wins the award because of that is my perogative.

        #5 it may very well be a good movie , it is up for awards after all, but im not intrested in that sort of thing.

        so please stop trying to bust people out when your the one who hopped into the middle of the conversation trying to stir stuff up.

          People may go see the movie because they heard about the gay stuff but if they like the movie it has nothing to do with that. They like the movie because of the characters, cinematography, writing, and whatever else. And about me throwing anything out there, you are the one who brings up the gay cowboy thing. When people try to discuss other aspects of the movie you bring that up for whatever reason.
          what is there too see man, the movie is about two homosexual cowboys am i correct?...
          of course there were better movies, but everyone is so infatuted with being gay it will win.
          Saying that it will win purely because it is a movie about two gay men is pretty ignorant.

          If I went any bigger, it would not have properly fit with my equipment, so I had to optimize. I'm okay with it, but I also know what I'm missing with those five inches. :)

            it's laughable that people claim to know why a movie is nominated without ever seeing it. if you haven't seen a movie, STFU about it, and that goes for all the movies. i've seen very few of the movies nominated, so i'm not running my mouth with a bunch of nonsense about them.

              Has anybody seen Munich? I wanted to see it, but it was only playing at my theatre for two or three weeks and then pulled out to be replaced with Walk The Line. I was disappointed.

                  I meant to see Munich as well, but never got around to it. I'll just have to add that to my ever growing list.

                        nobody ever brought up any other aspects of the movie.

                        theres no point in trying to sugar coat it.
                        its a movie about gay cowboys who fall in love is it not??

                        if i am wrong about that then i apologize, again i never knocked it. all i said is it isnt for me.

                        what is the point you are trying to make jmood?

                        just to clarify what i meant by the people being infatuated with gay thing...
                        being homosexual has become increasingly popular over the last 3-4 years if you havent noticed more and more movies and tv shows promote homosexuality... all i was saying is since its the "popular" thing.. then it will probably win.

                          Here is what you said: "of course there were better movies, but everyone is so infatuted with being gay it will win."

                          This infers that the only reason it will win is because its a gay movie and eveyone is infatuated with gay life (Which is a ridiculous thought). The fact that you havent seen this movie also means that you statement is baseless because you cant actually say there were better films this year. Its an ignorant statement.

                          With that said, I think there are better movies this year...but I can say that because ive seen it.

                            I see a ghost on my tv ............. oh it's just Nicole Kidman.

                            Great job by Stewart on the opening. The Clooney joke was really good and Clooney helped the joke with his reaction.

                              I liked that joke and the one about remakes, with walk the line being ray with white people.
