Saying the quiet part out loud. (h/t to @glennkenny.bsky.social#filmsky šŸ“½ļø

from Jeffrey Wells:

Down With ā€œGladiator IIā€ With One Condition
Iā€™ll be okay with Ridley Scottā€˜s Gladiator II as long as it avoids gay or trans characters, and of course sidesteps any depictions or suggestions of homoeroticism or, God forbid, full-on sodomy. No ancient hard-ons of any kind, in or out of the arena, and no ejaculations. As long as thatā€™s understood, weā€™re good. Or I am, at least.

Iā€™m mentioning this because Scott is known for being receptive to story suggestions from his cast members, and because thereā€™s a fair amount of pressure these days to include LGBTQ material or at least references to same in films, and because this sequel to Scottā€™s 24-year-old Gladiator costars Paul Mescal and Pedro Pascal, both of whom played gay characters last year in Andrew Haighā€˜s All Of Us Strangers and Pedro Almodovarā€˜s Strange Way of Life, respectively.

Iā€™m sorry but when I think of these guys I thinkā€¦I donā€™t know what to think. But I canā€™t forget the cum droplets scene in All Of Us S

The world is tough, but it has its finer moments. Case in point; @glennkenny.bsky.social new book on Scarface is available. I ordered mine! If it's anything like Made Men, it is going to be excellent.
