Pretty tasteless of them to ask him to make fun of a tragedy. Who does that really?
I think it's fine to make fun of everything, including tragedies. And especially made up tragedies, like a movie. It depends on the intent of the joke. Whether you find it funny or not is subjective anyway. There are good jokes about the holocaust, so I don't see why there can't be good jokes about a movie. Now, whether the particular joke they were asked to do was good, that I don't know. But in principle I think you can make jokes about everything.
It is fine to make fun of everything. I'm interested in the practical critiques of Brokeback mountain cowboycraft, whatever that may be. Requiring uninterested people to do the same is stupid.
Heartless people. People who make money off of a trend, while not giving a flying fuck about the content or cause.
Dude was BASED AF
Shit that movie was sad.
I feel like I may remember the event alluded to with gyllenhaal's character towards the end.
Also, crazy that it was twenty years ago.
Brokeback Mountain changed my mother's entire worldview with regards to homosexuality, and I'll be forever grateful to it for that.
I'm queer dude from the South who moved to California for safety. Yeah, they hit the nail on the head.
Queer girl here. If the US goes extreme against you again, you and your partner are welcome to move in with me in the UK. 🌈
I'm a trans gal in Texas. I'm clueless on how to escape and I'm terrifying.
I really hope you'll find happiness and feel safe there. I couldn't imagine living anywhere where I felt that "unwelcome".
It had its funny moments too like when they ate pudding.
Butt full of beans
Watched it once, never again. Don't have the guts.
Isn’t it a movie about two dudes cheating on their spouses with each other
Essenially, yes, but the movie has more layers than that
Like the fact that they're forced by the society they live in to hide their relationship, and only a stupid, shallow, and deliberately callous individual would try to reduce it to "cheating on their spouses"
