    Okay, I decided to actually START a thread... here are some of my recommended queer movies:

    - Lilies
    - Trick (Tori Spelling finally in a perfect role)
    - The Hanging Garden
    - It's My Party
    - Jeffrey
    - Latter Days
    - The Incredibly True Story of Two Girls In Love
    - When Night Is Falling
    - Must Be The Music (possibly the best gay short of all time, on a collection called Boys Life 2)
    - Cursed (best gay subplot in a mainstream movie ever)
    - Get Real
    - Relax It's Just Sex
    - Sugar
    - L.I.E.
    - Eating Out (featuring one of the two actors playing gay guys from the recent Desperate Housewive gay teen subplot)
    - D.E.B.S.
    - Saved!
    - The Sum of Us (Russell Crowe... seriously!)
    - Trevor (also in Boys Life 2)
    - Doors Cut Down & Backroom (both in Boys Briefs 2)
    - Masturbation: Putting the Fun into Self Loving (included in Men's Mix 1, and it's fall on the floor funny/sexy)

    I'm sure there's more... but my memory only holds so much!

    The dialogue, especially at the beginning, was some of the best I've heard since Buffy. It started out okay, although its production values are pretty low, but then it got pretty lousy, with a totally confused/lame/stupid ending. But it's worth it for the dialogue and hot boys.

    Okay, speaking of opinions, has anyone seen Speedway Junky with JTT? I've had that on my list of movies to see for a while and I've never gotten around to it. It's directed by the same guy who Must Be The Music, the short I highly recommended above.

    And it was filmed in my hometown! And Mandy Moore is just so cool for having done the role she did in it, and who thought Mackulay Culkin would be cute after all these years?

    My friend goes, "I've never wanted to do a person in a wheelchair more than I did while watching that movie." :lol:

    EDIT: It was filmed in your hometown? Coooool... Well it's fictitiously set in mine! LOL :tongue:

    Maryland, Canada, same difference really.

    ahh! I wish i could get a hold of those. I guess i could buy them off the interet and have them sent. It would be too weird trying to rent one. (especially with some of the names i saw in there)

    NetFlix, baby! NetFlix!

    EDIT: Heh. I just remembered that some people on here are under 18... But don't care too much about renting them. Believe me, the clerks at Blockbuster see 100s of people a day, they're not going to remember you and be like, "Oh... that's the kid who rented the gay-themed movie... let's laugh at him!" LOL :lol: I think you should be safe. :wink:

    lol, yea, Its not the clerks that I'm worried about. I'd just rather be able to handle (god i hate this) hinding stuff like that from anyone that doesnt know. I'm pretty good at hiding stuff, but needing to usher anything to and from my room/house gets difficult. I dont think I'll stay closeted for too much longer, and I'm starting a dvd collection, I dont think i'd be a problem (or even hard for that matter) for me to buy movies that I want (within reason).

    Now if i could just find a person to watch them with.

    Queer movies... not general movies. Although I guess Moulin Rouge is queer somehow.

    Ooops, *goes red*...

    Ok... I don't watch many queer movies... It's not like I can go and rent one, and downloading takes ages with my crappy connection.

    :eusa_sile Hahaha

    And who you callin' a Yankee-boy? Maryland's below the Mason-Dixon line, which makes us part of the South, baby! (We're just not evil like the rest of it, but yeah... at least around DC and Baltimore it's so Yankee it's not even funny... but down in the more rural areas... whoa. Yeah, over there the South is alive and well.) :lol:

    I've actually already seen it. I didn't love it but I thought it was really well done. I just kept thinking how weird it was that this totally different world was going on while I was around the same age as the characters and also going clubbing.
