Why the heck are gay-themed feature and short films so fucking DULL?

[belamyi]

Especially the Anglo ones... or, rather, maybe because of them.

 

[Alistair]

Because they're usually an art project instead of a real story.

Artsy-fartsy crap.

 

[Cormac135]

Don't know why but they most certainly are, sadly even the mainstream/independent features are mainly dull, stereotype ridden wrist slashing crap.

 

[HoodedRat]

Most films are dull and boring.

There is nothing special about being a homo so why would anyone expect a 'gay-themed' film to be an exception?

I started a thread over in Entertainment about gay shorts and even posted a couple. I thought they were pretty good.

Because gay people are exceptional At least, that's what homophobes say.
Actually, even 'g-rated' gay-themed films are as rotten dull as gay porn.

The obvious. As I have publicly stated more than once, the state of cinema quality right now is about the same as the state of Western painting in 1400. With maybe one single exception, all the rest is acheulean 'art'.

Dance, that is, choreography, is even in a more depressing condition... it's so American! It got decadent before it ever became truly "classic" and refined.

Making Love - Harry Hamlin, Michael Ontkean

- its a bit like movie of the week. Kissing scene occurs at 49:15

The subtitles are a foreign language. Its in English. Full version. I love the closing soundtrack by Roberta Flack

Ah, I remember that: the sort of home porn on which you had to rely when there was not any through-the-line home-delivery real thing yet.

We are so damn Anglo.

^ Actually, that was the UTube suggestion that diectly inspired... compelled me to start this thread.

 

[zoltanspawn]

I've only seen some of them.

I loved Tangerine.

 

[Latimer]

I soon understood where all this was going--and found it particularly interesting--because I've played out this scenario while escorting. Once for one client (I heard this was his favorite scene, played with various guys), and twice with another. The biggest difference in my case was that I ended up tied up and fucked by the first guy, and wrestled, pinned and fucked by the second. Hand job in this movie was both disappointing and unrealistic. Rape is the proper punishment. And much more exciting.

I think "burglar getting caught and fucked" has been a porn plot more than a few times. Probably inspired this flick.

 

[Jacquemar]

For what it's worth, I loved the "Eating Out" movies, #1,2,5.

 

[Vannie]

Life is short. Make your own movie

 

[Latimer]

^ "Is it a video?"

I really liked "Trick", and liked "Weekend" and "God's Own Country". I loved "Call Me By Your Name". None of them were dull.

I thought the burglar fucking the owner was the default fantasy in a situation like that?

But that is not a "gay-themed" movie: it is a love movie.
It's like you start counting "Maurice" as a "gay-themed" movie
