I had no interest in seeing this movie, then it won all those awards. It better have won because it is good, not because it is the first gay cowboy movie

Why is there all this crap in the commercial about love, romance, love, love, more love, romance romance!

Rated R

What the hell is that?
 
I didn't think love and romance was crap
although if you want to go there I can see the gay cowboy-crap-romance connection
 
That ice skating show really changed you.
 
haha oh tribdog, you are such a catapult.

I was hopen this was some sort of sweet shoot em up western but no, its romance. That's like thinking you're about to drink a cold beer on a hot summer afternoon and instead, getting married.
 
Id rather get married than drink a cold beer on a hot summer afternoon.
 
Opps, sorry. I though I was replying to the thread "Are we in a black hole?"

Well, Titanic would have been rated R, but people die in that movie as well so it's safer for youngens than Brokeback Mountain.
