Re: Movies you Want to See Made

You mean "isn't" a big deal, I think, but YES so much seconded on that.

Especially if it's some action-filled spy movie with a team of BAMFs, one of whom is just gay, No biggie. He has a boyfriend and they're totes sweet together, but his boyfriend gets pissed off when he finds out the guy is a spy but then forgives him in the end, and it has nothing to do with being gay but the romance is in the plot for a reason, not just shoved in for the sake of having a gay romance.

Or two of them are gay and a couple and keep bitching casually at each other about their kids while they're trying to do their super-dangerous job, just like they'd be doing if they were a married heterosexual couple instead.

Or like, an explosion-filled action movie without much romance where the main character makes a totally offhand comment three-quarters of the way through the film (after the audience has cheered him a load of times and decided this guy is really cool) that reveals that he's definitely gay but has nothing to do with the plot — he might as well have mentioned that he's allergic to shellfish or something.

I wish the no big deal thing happened more often, not just with gay characters, but with like, women and stuff too.

I would love more stuff like this! It's so simple and low-key to include if you don't want to risk anything onscreen, a great way to ease gay action heroes into the consciousness without making a major thing of it. Like how Jack Harkness (Torchwood) dropped droll comments about his various boyfriends between the action and nobody stopped to remark on them because it was just another character quirk.

Also the rest of your points, too. Need moar casually gay/bisexual heroes, man.

Idk, I think this could turn into a double standard because tons of movies have a romance in the plot that is just shoved in for the sake of having a straight romance.

Dunno if it "counts," (since it could be taken as a joke), but about halfway through the latest Mission Impossible movie, one of the guys (while doing something dangerous for a job, IIRC) says that next time he wants to be the one to seduce the rich guy. So, yay, I guess?

You are talking about Jeremy Renner's character therefore I am justified in posting this here.

You know, the more I think about it, the more alluring the idea of making a collage out of pictures of Jeremy Renner's ass and setting it as my desktop background sounds...

My sister did that to her phone for fifteen seconds once. My mom was like "You are thirteen years old!" and my sister said, "Yeah, I'm thirteen not dead." Now her phone just has a picture of a cute kpop boy that my mom thinks is a girl.
