If we just ignore this piece of trash masquerading as art, it will probably die all on its own. Who will actually go see this? Only the pervs, who don't need any convincing. Normal people will not be swayed by the propaganda because they will stay away from it.
In his monologue the other night, Jimmy Kimmel started a joke about it by saying, "Have you heard about this gay cowboy movie, 'Brokeback Mountain?' It's the one everybody's talking about it, even though there's not a single man on our staff who plans to see it."
I tend to agree...up to a point.
My first impression after I even read this film was in preproduction was to refuse to even discuss it. Just not provide any mention of the thing.
I think the expectation by homosexuals is that there will be increased discussion about homosexuality becuase of the film, with the film as flint, or, well, "fuse" to get the public and mostly conservatives again discussing their ongoing attempts to make homosexuality the leading issue among the public of discussion, all that.
So, I hesitated to even discuss, mention this film up until about two, three days ago for that reason.
On the other hand, I've since decided that to not discuss it in very straightforward terms of declination of the title and contents, all the enthusiasm about the film from homosexuals about homosexuality in entertainment and otherwise remains the only public statement (and that should not be).
The people making the loudest and most exuberant comments and promotions of BMountain are predominantly those in the press and in cities such as New York, L.A....and, among the entertainment press, there's always a lot of excitement about homosexuality, so no surprise there (Golden Globes are awards by the Foreign Press, for example).
As an aside but an important one, to put a perspective on New York City's exuberance over this film, NYC has the highest rate of abortions nationwide, and among those, the highest rate of abortions among underage females.
