Okay so I'm a huge movie fanatic and I love discovering new directors whose work I can obsess over. So far these are probably some of my favourites:
Quentin Tarantino
Hayao Miyazaki
David Lynch
Tim Burton (At least some of the older stuff)
Satoshi Kon
Chan Wook-Park
Stanley Kubrick
Christopher Nolan
Darren Aronofsky
It looks like David Cronenberg might get a spot on the list, but I need to see more before I can decide. Do you guys have any favourites?
Hey my dears and queers, I've been on the youtubes recently, and I've discovered a Whole New World (and the intro for Aladdin & Princess Jasmine begins) of Gay films and the like.
Being from where I come from, I've probably seen less than most of you on here of anything gay, so all this stuff has me wide eyed and Japanese school girl giggling like there's no tomorrow.
I wanna post some of the stuff I've seen on here and you'd be more than welcomed to do the same, even if it isn't technically a film or even a predominantly gay one at that, just so long as we see some same gendered lovin' goin' on, cause lez-bianst (no offense my fabulous queer ladies, you know I love you gals), there's enough of it everywhere all the time :| .
Kaldrick King (L.A Complex) Season 2 Episode(s) : 12 & 13
- I believe it's cancelled now... probably cause those straight executives couldn't handle the hotness and drama... maybe :p
~~
O Beautiful (Gay Short)
- I'm warning you ahead of time peepz, there is an implication of rape(even though it's extremely,obnoxiously obvious) and possible voyeurism of said rape in this video, so if that turns your dials on off, then don't bother, however it's very cheesy and romantic in that very "behind your best friend's dad's barn, playing spin the bottle with just the two of you" way.

Intensity of Adolescent Romance & Forbidden Love(Davy & Stu - Gay Short Film)
- I believe it's a scene from a movie called A Boy's Life, but I'm not quite sure. It's very sweet and is probably what y'all had or wish you had when you first found out about yourselves (I kinda had it ). R.I.P to the actor Travis Walters(Davy) who passed away last year I believe.
~~
Ruben's Place (Gay Film)
- It's another love story, with some pretty good acting and lovely camera work and is almost like a for real real movie! The father sounds extremely scripted, so that may be a turn off, but otherwise, it's pretty nice. For some reason, it reminds me a little of the O.C or Dawsons Creek. :\ idk why.
~~
Water|Vattnet(2012 -Gay Short Film)
-It's about a boy who lives in a "castle" and all he ever does is study, but when a Swedish jock comes sweepin into his life, he takes a look away from his books to study something... or someone else. His mom is so nosey! Just saying, otherwise, it's just a cute little thing, no action or anything, it just makes you go awww at some parts
~~
Triple Standards - Gay Film
- Now when I say beautiful...omgosh! The message...the guys...the romance...the acting...it all just makes sense to me. It may require you to log in to view it, cause there are some naughty bits in there, mostly some cupcakes, not quite in the oven, but it's so sweet. Like, this is one of my favourites...
~~
And there are plenty more on youtube, but these are my favourites. Hopefully I indoctrinate some of y'all into my sappy romantic tendencies and that you'll look up and/or share a film you've seen and liked with some same gendered lovin' <3
Got into argue with a friend over which Red Dawn was better,The Original version of Red Dawn or the remake verision of Red Dawn.I said the orignal version was better,he said the remake version was better.But anyway I just wanted to find out what the forum users thought about this.
In watching "low budget" style movies over the years, Ive discovered that just because an ass load of money was dumped into a movie, doesnt make it a good movie.....or even a great one.
Some "B" and even "C" movies have been better made with a lot less money thrown into it.
Here are a couple of low budget movies that I have place in my "Fucking Awesome" category of movies:
Jesus Henry Christ
Gone, but not Forgotten
Have you seen any low budget, "B", "C", or underground movies that were so good, they put mega budget movies to shame?
Anyone else here a Sci-Fi nut and looking forward to seeing the Ender's Game movie slated to be released this November?
I read the book Ender's Game several years ago and it was one of those really good page turners that you just could not put down. The movie has the chance of being very good in that there are some good names cast for it like Harrison Ford, Ben Kingsley, and Asa Butterfield.
When I first read the book(several times), I thought that it would make a great move, of course there is also the chance that something so good in book form could be very difficult to translate to the screen and not work out. Frank Herbert's Dune would be the first that comes to mind as having a bad transition from book to the screen.
In any case. I'm looking forward to seeing it on the big screen. Anybody else here read the book? or expecting to see the movie?
