How do he and his friends keep getting is this kind of situation anyway? Doesn’t make much sense. I think he blew his cover with this article, but stat’s still no reason to see his flims. MEH.

It’s hard not having seen the film (and I probably won’t anyway) but this just seems like the typical attempt to have a laugh at the expense of “the other.” Just like “Chuck and Larry” which exploits the gay marriage issue to get a few cheap laughs becuase they still can. I wonder if they could get away with black face would they still do it? Gays are probably the only minority left that it’s socially acceptable to disrespect in a mainstream movie.

And you know, if it were done well and interestingly I would be cool with it. But something tells me it won’t.

To me, it seems odd to say you can see the scene in the film being okay (a so-called “post-homophobic” scene) but not one where someone reacts to two gay people kissing (I guess that would be — what? — “pre-homophobic”?)

I don’t see anything to “defend” from the film but, since Ratner chose that approach I agree: his anecdote was an odd way to do so.
