12/18   Brokeback Mountain, best movie I have seen in a long time.
        Just go see it.
        \_ Is it another one of those movies about gay cowboys eating pudding?
           \_ Yeahhh.  Hollywood just can't seem to get out of that rut.
           \_ Homo on the Range
              \_ Homo, homo on the range
                 Where the queer with the anal lube play
                 Where condom is heard an encouraging squirt
                 And the guys are all kinky all day
           \_ Bring ass shielding.
            \_ Oh my god it is a movie about GAY PEOPLE!  I bet watching
               it will turn you into a big fag, well unless you just get
               raped by all those homosexuals in the audiance.
           \_ Gah!  Nobody got the reference! -pp
              \_ I did.  --dbushong
           \_ As I went a-walkin' one mornin' for pleasure,
              I spied two fudgepackers come ridin' along;
              Their hats was throwed back and their spurs was a-jinglin'
              And as they approached I was singin' this song:
                Yippee ki-yi-gay, git along, little homos;
                It's your misfortune and none of my own.
                Yippee ki-yi-gay, git along, little homos;
                You know that Wyoming will be your new home.
              It's early in spring that we round up the homos
              We wash 'em and lube 'em and test 'em for AIDS
              We round up the condoms and load the fuckwagon
              And then throw them homos out onto the trail
                Yippee ki...
        \_ I don't believe you.  Where did you see it?
           \_ It was released only in SF, LA and NYC.
           \_ I saw it at Embarcadero One. I got tickets about three hours
              in advance on Saturday.
        \_ Before I spend $10/ticket to see anything, I'd like to know more
           than an anonymous motd person told me to go see it.  What exactly
           did you like about it?  What other movies have you liked and why?
           \_ My female coworker told me that I should see this movie because
              "there is nothing hotter than seeing two cowboys making love to
               each other".
           \_ Without revealing spoilers, I can only say that it is a powerful
              and compelling story about something I have never seen
              examined on the big screen before. Having grown up in the
              rural West, I can say that it did a good job portraying attitudes
              rural West, I think that it did a good job portraying attitudes
              and culture there. The acting was really great, too, at least
              one Oscar worthy performance. I also liked Godfather, Blade
              Runner and American Beauty. Look at the imdb ratings, they
              are all 9's and 10's (and 1's, probably from people who did
              not even see it).
