Can straight people enjoy gay-themed films?

[Asgehgsj]

There's a gay comedy I want to buy on DVD cos I saw a trailer for it & it seems quite funny but just a bit worried about what people will think

 

[rkuchan1]

Make SURE you wear THIS then when you go to buy the DVD.

 

[Me_rdrgz]

It's not gay porn...

 

[FALCONKING]

Is it Another Gay Movie?

 

[oreo_luvr]

Just the same a gay people can enjoy straight themed films.

 

[fgjfjfjn b]

99% of stuff shown on TV is dedicated to pleasing heterosexual audiences. I still enjoy a lot of it.

No it's Eating Out - All You Can Eat...

Saw the trailer on YouTube

I'm straight, and I would not watch anything gay-related.

Sugar Rush

 

[Skyler--That Grey Box]

I think anyone can enjoy a good story. However, that film just looks like a pile of crap!

 

[junglelion46]

I think you are way out there. As someone who bats for my OWN side, I reckon there is more than 1% of stuff for you lot! And to be honest, MOST tv programmes arent aimed at straight OR gay people, just people. So that pushes the % much higher.

Oh,and OP, I would quite happily watch a gay comedy, but not a gay drama. I cringe at Eastenders ( The Syeed & Christian snogging bits), but laugh at any gay comedy.

A film is a film, whatever the theme. There's no reason you wouldn't enjoy it, OP, and who cares what other people think.

 

[voicefromparis]

Its an awful mess of a movie. please OP don't waste your money.

 

[blouhoender]

Well I adored Queer As Folk (the UK version). I thought it was excellent

 

[slay247]

Me too, wonderful drama.

 

[sammi(:]

A third vote here for Queer As Folk. I loved it! I'm a straight female btw.

 

[chandu]

I should add that I am a straight female too.

 

[deaththekid]

Only if they are good films.

Same goes for all viewers.

 

[Alex]

And me.

Queer As Folk had a wonderful blend of humour and drama. Obviously the 'gay' aspect of it was central to the story but pretty irrelevant to how much I enjoyed it.

And I love the soundtrack too

I wouldn't use that movie as the benchmark for gay comedies. All three Eating Out films are low-rent sub-John Waters movies. The only reason you'd watch them, or should I say the only reason I watched them, is for the occassional flash of hot male nudity.

This, I suspect, would not interest you enough to continue viewing.
