    *sigh* It never stops huh, these ridicilous things in the US?

    "It is very important to me that my children not be exposed to this," said Kenneth Richardson, Turner's guardian.

    Well, and can I sue these people back for exposing my kids with this kind of retarded discrimination against gay people?

    Man, and it's just a movie, actors were acting, how can you get a trauma of that? >.< They should have hid themselves under a rock if they don't want to see other ways of life.

    There was some nudity but nothing like porn or something explicit.

    Wow, if they are SO concern with their grandchild's affairs, they should home teach their granddaughter so that she will grow up to be a PROPER homophobic bigot.

    The state of the affairs in the states can be so retarded at times...

    I think there was a semi-clothed sm3x scene and a few kisses.... Nothing explicit.... 'cept blood. Maybe that was what peeved the old man off? XD

    Weren't they looking after sheep on the mountain? I remember seeing a scene where they showed a dead carcus or something, and they got scolded by the owner for not doing their job properly. =S Or maybe I'm just hallucinating. XD

    Then again, I think it got pretty bloody in the scene where Heath Ledger's character imagines Jack's death.... That blow there was.... owch. *Shudder* I feel sorry for you guys.... =(

    it's just a movie, nothing special about it. i found that it was a bit long and slow paced.

    Hmm... so a couple of guys kissing and making love is normal to you arh?
    lol.. i cringed when I watched any romantic scenes in there... but the end was quite touching though.

    Or the fact that we recognize the distinction between fiction and fact =_=b

    I mean, watching a film with a gay theme doesn't turn a person gay...

    I don't see them complaining when their child see those thrillers and say "OMG my child is going to be taught to be a killer/murderer!!! SUE YOU!"

    It's just retarded =_=b Freedom and equality my a$$.

    I think it's sheer hypocripsy to say "OMG Homosexuals on screen" and make a HUGE deal about it while not even batting an eye at those violence gory bloody twisted killer-flicks.
