What are the gay-themed movies you just hate? And why?

Mine are:

Latter Days - I know a lot of people like it, I thought it was awful cheap melodrama
The Birdcage - Confused cross dressing with being gay - homosexual minstrel show
Philadelphia - it was acclaimed, but the gay couple never even kissed each other
 
There have been a couple. One of them I really loathed because it built up with a semi-interesting story, only to turn everything on its head when the “gay” guy falls in love with a woman and goes straight at the end. It was fucking confusing and pissed me off because up until that point (about half-way through the movie) it was kind of good. I don’t remember its name, but it was British.

But when they make a movie where a "straight" guy has sex with a man, everyone says "HOORAY!"


Double Standards suck, don't they?
 
The "Dante's Cove" movie pilot / Episode 1.

Toby's reference about how he loves Kevin's tomatoes... That has to be the absolute worst, cheesiest, most god-awfulest line in the history of gay movies.

It was all I could do not to throw a tomato at the screen.

I think it depends on the situation. In the case of the movie I mentioned (still don't remember its name), it was an established gay character entering into a series of gay relationships, and then fucking his fag-hag one night while drunk and then deciding to 'go straight' because she was there and he was too burned out dating anybody else. It was an utter cop-out and sent the message that sexuality was something people pick and choose. Now, if the character had been bisexual, or even questioning, that would have been quite different. But to call him 100% homosexual and then to say, "well, I'll just stick with her because she is there and we already fucked while drunk" was cheese to the max.

I can't think of many gay-themed movies in which an established 100% straight guy enters into a serious gay relationship... I know a few which have featured closeted-gay/bi/questioning guys, some of whom were in opposite-gender relationships or even married to women (Leaving Metropolis), but 100% straight magically turning 'gay' because he wanted to? I'd be interested in hearing some titles. I've never personally seen any.
 
Never saw it.

To be clear; I'm not suggesting movies with that plot don' exist; I'm just saying that I've never personally seen any. And if I did, the plot twist of an established ‘straight’ character suddenly ‘choosing’ to be gay would be just as ridiculous as the movie I aforementioned with a ‘gay’ character ‘choosing’ to be straight.
 
Brokeback Mountain. It would have been nice if there had been one ball between the two of them. And please don't tell me it was the time or place. Homosexual couples have been around since the beginning of time.

I loled so hard...

The eating out movies are really low budget..and plot -wise empty... Some of the dudes are hot, but the main character chick...is a complete disaster.
 
Here are some really bad ones

Socket
Arizona Sky
Cowboy Junction
Phoenix
Three Dancing Slaves
Regarding Billy
 
I agree with Kal, above. I love Al Pacino, but 1980s CRUISING was not a good movie. It dealt with a gay serial killer and Pacino going undercover as a cop. William Friedkin directed, he of The Exorcist fame. Hard to believe that a movie with those two could suck, but it did.

I loved Latter Days and Brokeback.....
 
My least favorite gay movie has got to be Luster. It's about a mopey music store salesman who falls for his very hot cousin. Meanwhile the mopey store owner is in love with him. Then the cousin has a fling with a lesbian friend, and the friend's partner gets mad at her. And the mopey guy tries to save a masochist from a sadist only to find out that he didn't want to be saved. And there's even more stuff like that involving even more mopey people who are pining away over mopey people who don't even know they exist.

And to think that Dennis Cooper let his poems be used in this thing! Jeeze!

This one is even worse than No One Sleeps.

(I kind of liked Cruising. At least it was interesting.)

The Bird Cage immediatley came to mind. A "gay" movie for straight people to feel comfortable because there are so many stupid stereotypes. Fuck this movie.

Not sure I entirely agree with you. Yes, the movie was basically made for straight people to feel good about themselves and to have a cheap laugh at older, gay couples. But in all fairness, the movie also showed Williams and Lane having a loving, sacrifice something for those you love attitude. The moment between williams and lane when he approaches him at the bus stop and asks him not to go away is very heartfelt. It showed that two men can be in love and not care what the world thinks of them. Unfortunately, that message is lost on most straight people who watched it.

I disagree with Brokeback Mountain because I loved the film. However, it would be nice to have a nice, good-looking male couple survive their conflicts and at least live normal lives. Unfortunately, that doesn't sell in mainstream America which demands to see tragedy in all gay relationships.

Doesn't that contradict what you just said about The Birdcage?
