But the character isn't, only the actress.

Condemning homosexuality is the problem. You can be scared of it all you want, as long as you don't act on that fear.

How did you jump to that conclusion? And yes, I feel that the deconstruction of a gay stereotype is indeed the best way to... well, deconstruct gay stereotypes. At least one of them, anyway.

And I actually believe that to be valid.

Wed, 17 Jun 2009 15:27:13 +0000 http:/www.slashfilm.com/2009/06/17/gay-friendly-bruno-reshoots-rumoured/#IDComment24604716 http:/www.slashfilm.com/2009/06/17/michael-cera-has-no-interest-in-ghostbusters-3-jack-black-would-bust-ghosts-if-he-could/#IDComment24587293 I think there's more to Jack Black than the loud crazy man. I guess his appropriate employment would depend on the script, and on the basis of all Eisenberg and Stupnitsky work I've read so far, I feel really very good.

Was given an 18 by the BBFC. Never "banned" by them. Kubrick personally withdrew it, with no input from the BBFC at all. And when he died, the film reappeared almost immediately.

Mon, 15 Jun 2009 16:46:08 +0000 http:/www.slashfilm.com/2009/06/14/comparing-the-bbfc-and-the-mpaa-and-how-antichrist-illustrates-the-differences/#IDComment24324341 http:/www.slashfilm.com/2009/06/14/comparing-the-bbfc-and-the-mpaa-and-how-antichrist-illustrates-the-differences/#IDComment24229831 As a footnote: after creating cut versions of their films to secure an R or PG-13, studios will often use those cuts for the UK market when, in fact, the uncut original would have been passed. The studios' fault, again, but tied in with the screwy MPAA ratings selection. Sun, 14 Jun 2009 19:14:26 +0000 http:/www.slashfilm.com/2009/06/14/comparing-the-bbfc-and-the-mpaa-and-how-antichrist-illustrates-the-differences/#IDComment24229831 http:/www.slashfilm.com/2009/06/14/comparing-the-bbfc-and-the-mpaa-and-how-antichrist-illustrates-the-differences/#IDComment24223887 I wasn't blaming the MPAA for the NC-17, I was blaming them for the R. Most R rated films should really be NC-17, by my reckoning. I intended no aggression towards the MPAA for their NC-17 rating at all.

REALLY? I'm glad I don't work where you work.

Kermode is hilarious! He says the most ridiculous things. Don't you remember him talking about Ethan Coen's input to Tropic Thunder as though he could perceive it, or his infamous line "All matter in the universe is satan making his way back to God" or... or... or... I'll tell you what, after his show tomorrow I'll come back here and add some of the choice drivel he dribbles out.

You are confusing communism with the actions of several "communist" regimes.

What a daft trailer, so astonishingly chock full of spoiler material.

Peter Hedges is making a new film and its a fantasy one? That's big news where I come from.
