It's madness! Madness!

Give me a break. It's a great movie, and getting the attention and credit it deserves... deal with it.




Thankyou Kent.

I beg to differ
It's just another part of the Hollywood overkill.

I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhauser gate. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain. Time to die.

Poop is a good term

I think "Brokeback Mountain" was one of the best films of the year. The script, cinematography, and acting were all superb.

Have you seen it, and if so can you point out to me where it is undeserving of any of the recognition that it has recieved? Because I've seen it twice, once caught up in it and once with a more critical eye, and have found it flawless.

I think comparitively it is a slightly better made film than "Walk The Line" - the other big favorite at the Golden Globes.

Would poop by any other name smell as sweet?




Of course, you know there are going to be people defending other people's right to poop. Not that I have anything against anyone pooping -- but, I'd prefer they do it in private, and not expect the rest of the world to watch and applaud while they do.

I thought it was mediocre and definitely not deserving of all the praise that it gets. However, I’ve thought that about a lot of films that were highly praised so maybe that doesn’t mean much. In the end, I’ve never been one for love stories. “Walk the Line” was miles better then “Brokeback Mountain,” but I’m a big Johnny Cash fan, so maybe that biases me. Still, I doubt I’ll ever see “Walk the Line” again. It was, after all, a love story.

But back to the point at hand, Hollywood is a joke. It always has been. It’s a place were trendy politics, mostly Left-wing, is more important then art. And so it is no surprise to anyone that in the midst of gay-rights trendy politics fad, Hollywood comes out with a basket full of gay films and gives them all Golden Globes. In the end, however good these films were artistically is second to Hollywood’s shallow and self-involving desire to sit around in trendy coffee shops and pat themselves on the back for being so damn trendy. No one can honestly take any of it seriously, and that is not only unfortunate for the films, many of which are pretty good, but also for the socio-politics, some of which is actually important, but Hollywood wouldn’t know an important issue if it fell into their tofu and pineapple salad while they are doing Pilates on the veranda overlooking all those people in housing projects in East Hollywood they couldn’t give a shit about.

So there.
