Listen, I know I promised I wouldn’t really talk about gay stereotypes but there’s a scene (no not the cross-dressing scene) when Stallone upbraids a guy for eating pasta. Tango And Cash: Oh god I love this movie. That’s what my brain was yelling during a particular scene when Erik and Charles were close-talking and McAvoy had made his pretty eyes all puddly with tears. ![]() X-Men: First Class: FOR THE GOOD OF MUTANTKIND KISS HIM ALREADY. Sherlock Holmes: Do you see? Do you see how they’re like, “Rachel McWhodams?” And Watson is actually married in the next film? This won’t do, this won’t do at all. Thelma And Louise: As much as I love that this film empowers females without vilifying every single male (Keitel and Madsen being two completely sympathetic characters), I might love it even more if instead of grabbing hands at the end, the ladies had made out a little. Leave out Natalie Portman’s Manic Pixie Dream Grating entirely, and you’ve got a solid movie on your hands. Garden State: I know it’s fashionable to hate Garden State from head to toe, but I have a lot of affection for this movie and it mostly centers around Peter Sarsgaard’s Mark. Speaking of pictures, I’d like a polaroid when you attempt the Kobayashi Maru position, okay guys? Watch the intergalactic sparks fly as these two boldly go where-” well, you get the picture. “One of them plays it safe, the other never met a rule he couldn’t break. Everyone knows this was a classic odd couple romance. Star Trek: Nice try with the old Uhura beard, there, JJ. Romy And Michele’s High School Reunion: I mean, right? Good Will Hunting: HOW DO YOU LIKE THEM APPLES?! In my mind, Affleck’s Chuckie is obviously in love with the Will Hunting character and as much as I enjoy the poignancy of Chuckie finding Will gone at the end of the film, Minnie Driver’s Skylar does not merit a cross-country trip or the tidy “I’ve gotta go see about a girl” line. That being said, if you replaced the bland, forgettable male lead and made the romantic aspect of the film between Bosworth (not skeletal yet) and Rodriguez? This movie would be infinitely better. It was filmed in an area of Hawaii I know quite well, and so I watch it mostly for the beach porn. I’d call this movie Queer As F*ck.īlue Crush: This is not a good movie, I’m not saying it is. Just one kiss? Or five really fast ones? We won’t tell your bros. Plus this is the only film I ever fancied Knightley in.įast Five: Oh, fellers, you know you want to. I find myself wishing these two were gay for each other because rapey-eyed Jonathan Rhys-Meyers is too old to be Jess’s love interest. In fact that mistaken stereotype is played for laughs at the expense of Juliet Stevenson’s fussy mother character. ![]() Make them gay.īend It Like Beckham: This wish has nothing to do with female athlete stereotypes. But I also think it’s bullshit that Sam goes home to marry Rosie when Frodo is obviously his one true love. I know this particular relationship is about how war is a class equalizer and the bonds formed in the trenches. I know Tolkein’s book is meant to convey the brotherhood of men going to war together. And to think, we could have been appreciating Mary Louise Parker’s explosive sexuality that much sooner. What was explicit in the book was bowdlerized and somewhat implicit in the film. Was it the Hardy’s pillow lips? The way he said, “Darling?” Arthur’s well-tailored vests? At any rate, they could have cut Ellen Page’s character entirely to give me more Arthur and Eames and I would have been pleased as punch.įried Green Tomatoes: This one is a bit of a no-brainer. There’s a site “F*ck Yeah Arthur and Eames” which I can’t even link, it’s so creepy. I’m not really into Slash Fiction, though I guess that’s what this entire list sort of is. Inception: This is the pair that launched a thousand ‘shippers. So, that being said, here are 16 Movies We Wish Were A Little Gayer. Bridesmaids is a great example of non-sexy female camaraderie. I never once got the urge to holler, “SLAP-A HIS BASS, MAN!!” Similarly, just because two chicks hang out and love each other, that doesn’t mean they want to get it on. Despite all that I Love You, Man nonsense, there is ZERO sexual tension between Paul Rudd and Jason Segel. Let me be clear, not every bromance is gay. ![]() And sometimes the two dudes or ladies are very, very pretty and I would enjoy seeing them make lie down kisses with each other. In other instances the actual romantic lead is so dull or uninspiring that my desire for gayness is also a desire to write them out of the film. ![]() In some instances the homosexual relationship would just make for a better narrative. I actually and earnestly think that these movies would be better if they were a little gayer. No, no, this is not an excuse to make a bunch of gay jokes.
