That was my first thought when it came onscreen in Sabrina: where’s that demon’s titties?!? Read more
They LGBT movies always seem to be either coming out/suffering/transition. Give me a queer bank heist! A trans scientist working to stop flying electric eels. A lesbian couple exorcising ghosts from the haunted house the just bought. We have entire lives between coming out and dying of HIV (according to Hollywood), so… Read more
Openly gay actors struggle to get roles of any kind in the still homophobic film industry, and many actors are pressured to stay in the closet so as not to lose the advantage of being perceived as straight by a system that will happily trot out “but it’s acting, they’re just playing a part” when they cast a white,… Read more
I adopted a very classy and erudite system of evaluation for gay cinema: do they bang, can I see it? a few years ago, and it’s pretty much pushed all mainstream gay films right off the radar.

It’s an art piece more than anything. It is truly mind boggling that the Sabrina producers thought they could just copy the whole thing… Read more
Also, In Touch should probably realize that they are NEVER EVER going to get the “Official!” scoop on royals news. Rumors like skipping-Charles will always, always run on BBC, unless Andrew and Fergie manage to sell the story to Sky News. Read more
Thank you! I knew I knew that name! Read more
Peri Gilpin, Jane Leeves, David Hyde Pierce and the late John Mahoney have been like family for years (Gilpin and Leeves are godmothers to each other’s kids, Pierce and Mahoney are/were godfathers to one of Leeves’ kids, Leeves and Gilpin and their respective husbands are next door neighbors, etc.) Notably missing… Read more
After all these years, Kelsey’s still that bitter about being upstaged by that dog, eh?

I knew that he died right before the first preview of Rent. I guess I had always accidentally thought it was due to AIDS. Wikipedia has information that Rent is somewhat autobiographical (with regards to the Maureen character) so color me surprised. Read more
