Been looking around the site and can I just mention the funniest…and also saddest quote I ran into. From a veiwer’s comment on “Will and Grace”: “I watched this show the other night and I was appalled. The character Jack (played by an actor who went to my college) especially is bad because he is the “funniest” gay character and is therefore the most appealing to young children. Also, he is played by a handsome young man, …I fought to suppress my attraction to him. I am a reformed homosexual who is now married to a wonderful woman, and people like me don’t need such horrible filth on TV to tempt us back into sin. –Eric Ellington, age 20” If we could only eliminate all the handsome men…I mean, horrible filth from the world I could be hetrosexual! Damn those smut peddlers for making me attracted to Sean Hayes!!! Oh dear… ---

> [@Eric Ellington](#): > > …I fought to suppress my attraction to him. I am a reformed homosexual who is now married to a wonderful woman, and people like me don’t need such horrible filth on TV to tempt us back into sin. This is one of the most pathetic things I’ve heard this week. Just…wow. His poor wife. His poor fucked-in-the-head self. I just pray their “marriage” breaks up before they have kids, but I bet right now he’s thinking to himself that 5 kids are just what he needs to bond himself to his wife and make him forget his sinful thoughts. What an idiot. ---

Okay, he’s had some movies that weren’t great and there were certainly some less than stellar moments on ST: TNG, but is he controversial? Is he a Scientologist or does he raise money for the Wiccan Abortion & Gay Adoption Society? To the best of my knowledge he’s Christian, straight, keeps a generally low profile, isn’t outspoken on politics or religion, and other than a divorce or two (which who doesn’t have in the industry?) leads a pretty clean life. Hmm. ---

He played gay in _Jeffrey_, duh. Plus he’s Professor Charles Xavier in the X-Men, which is obviously a homosexual metaphor. ---

The review of _Munich_ gave it a better rating than I expected. It’s an excellent movie, but I figured the swearing, killing and sex would take it down a few notches. I liked this reader response: “I…don’t recall any sexual themes and only a few violent sequences.” :eek: This leaves me to wonder what movie that guy saw, because I remember some pretty graphic shoot-outs and some pretty strong sexuality (albeit within the bounds of marriage). To each his own. Oh, and a nitpick. The _Syriana_ review says it’s “chalk full of politics,” etc. It’s _chock_ full, people. I don’t know what “chalk full” is, but it doesn’t sound pleasant. ---

Since the thread’s been bumped anyway, let’s see who today’s celebrity is… [it’s…](http://christiananswers.net/spotlight/home.html) DONALD TRUMP. Yeaaaa! And let’s see if the review is up for Brokeback Mountain… damn, they sure aren’t. But check out what a reviewer says about \*[The Producers](http://christiananswers.net/spotlight/movies/2005/theproducers2005.html) \*: > [@](#): > > It was way over the top, as a stage play would be… > That being said, the gay thing was waaay over the top and would have been more offensive, except that it’s Broadway, which is known for stuff like that. Only go if you can deal with it. My daughter is a theatre major in LA, and Broadway is her goal, so of course I pray a lot! Actually ,the gay thing was more ridiculed than presented as a desired lifestyle, as in most Hollywood movies now. I don’t know if anyone else would enjoy it like I did, but I really had to suspend Truth, remembering the show’s popularity, and just enjoy the interaction, knowing it’s mild for Broadway. Uh honey, I don’t care what the mean tour guide told you, but that show you saw in The Bronx with the Mexican boys and the pony and the 40 year old naked girl… that _wasn’t_ Broadway. ---

Ooh ooh ooh…and from the review itself: > [@](#): > > The Prodocers is not a wholesome Rodgers-and-Hammerstein production like The Sound of Music or Oklahoma… the content is so besmirched with sexual (and homosexual) “humor” that the whole production is degraded beyond pardon. It is a shame that a number of genuine belly laughs must suffer alongside such tastelessness. Mel Brooks… tasteless? Excuse me while I whip this out from the same review- > [@](#): > > None of the swindlers, reprobates, or Nazis receives any comeuppance in the film… This is quite a contrast to the character of people that Jesus commends in the Beatitudes (Matthew 5:3-10), and it ignores nearly all sense of morality that humanity ought to possess as image-bearers of God. I swear, sometimes I think that Mel Brooks isn’t even _trying_ to make a statement about how to lead a Christian life. ---

> [@Homebrew](#): > > He played gay in _Jeffrey_, duh. Plus he’s Professor Charles Xavier in the X-Men, which is obviously a homosexual metaphor. Apparently he also played gay on _Frasier_. And he’s got an Amnesty International scholarship named after him. Even if it’s not gay, that’s kinda bad. ---

> [@Mr2001](#): > > Isn’t it obvious? He shares a last name with Jon and Martha. Thanks for the laugh. I do believe that this is the thread to their logic. We must find the Stewarts and warn them–any one of them may be at risk. I wonder if it holds true for “Stuarts” as well? I am deeply shocked that Mel Brooks is somehow avoiding intertwining Christian “values” into his works, both past and present. It’s a sad day… RE chock full vs chalk full–I think these folks are indeed CHALK full and it has made them dyspeptic and crabby. ---

> [@Homebrew](#): > > The reviewer must have a limited vocabulary of profanity. I’m not sure about that. The Pakistani guy in the movie pretty much goes OFF. It’s hysterical. Mooj: Life is about people. It’s about connections. Andy Stitzer: It’s all about connections. Mooj: It’s not about cocks, and ass, and tits. Andy Stitzer: Yeah. Mooj: And butthole pleasures. Andy Stitzer: It’s not about butthole pleasures at all. Mooj: It’s not about these rusty trombones, and these dirty sanchez. Andy Stitzer: Please stop. Mooj: And these cincinatti bowties, and these pussy juice cocktail, and these shit stained balls. Andy Stitzer: Mooj, just please stop. Mooj: Everybody dick look big on 60-inch TV, my sister’s dick look big on TV. In one of the cut scenes from the DVD he forgets his line and says something along the lines of “Alligator Fuckhouse” which totally cracks up everyone on the set. If “Alligator F\*\*khouse” doesn’t pad your profanity dictionary, you’re a fouler man than me, Gunga Din. 🙂 [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/click-here-to-pierce-jon-stewarts-heart/335390.md?page=1)
