"
I think a lot of people went to see Brokeback because of curiousity about the "gay" movie."

I would go one step further and say that not a lot of people actually did see Brokeback--I think a small % of the population goes to see Brokeback 5+ times, thus driving up its profits.

I don't think anyone's mind on homosexuality has been changed because of Brokeback. The movie preaches to the choir. If you're gay, or you're a pro-gay blue stater, you saw the movie (repeatedly) and praised it. If you're not towing the gay party line, you not only have not seen and given money to the film, but films like Brokeback merely strengthen your resolve to oppose/ignore the gay agenda. Brokeback, like the first series of "legalized gay marriage" in CA and MA, may be a Pyrrhic victory for homosexual activists.

I agree. I didn't think twice about choosing to avoid Midnight Cowboy in 1972 or so and I didn't need to go see Brokeback Mtn. in 2006 to validate my earlier decision. I'd say gays just need to keep their mouths shut but I guess that would destroy their sex life so forget I said that.
