Just watched this movie with my husband and he said they must have been gay writers and they had a field with the gay subtext in this movie with Jeremy Piven and John Cusack. At first I disagreed but as I watched their relationship I think he was right. They really do act like gay lovers.....
"An idea isn't responsible for the people who believe in it."
No, they don't. Your husband is a homophobe and you are an idiot.
Yeah...well, that's just like your opinion, man.
when they were in the Bloomingdales storage warehouse looking for the credit card application, Eugene Levy starts to massage Piven's shoulders, and Piven gets angry...so prob nothing gay about Piven or Cusack, but Levy would seem to be gay.
shareThat seemed to be a 'Hollyweird' placement.
Can you fly this plane?
Surely you can't be serious.
I am serious,and don't call me Shirley
I don't think there's anything particularly homophobic about picking up on a gay subtext in a story, and there is nothing in the original poster's comments to suggest anything more than a mere observation.
It wouldn't surprise me at all if the writers of this film were gay themselves (since it absolutely plundered Sex & The City left, right and centre). I found the Eugene Levy salesman character to be a bit of a cheap laugh at the expense of gay men though.
#1. You and your troll girlfriend didn't "spot" anything. Piven made overt jokes implying that their relationship was gay, and he was joking.
#2. This movie was not written by gay writers. If you've seen things that definitely were written by gay writers about straight people, like Capote (meaning the straight supporting characters), or the show Glee, you can see common themes in their perception. For example, in their point of view, straight people are boring, not artistic, not imaginative, slow-witted, and have terrible interior decor.
#3. No gay writer, in my opinion, from what I've seen of movies by gay writers, would ever envision a woman who acted like Sara, because they would never see her as able to be smart or spiritual. They wouldn't write a character like John, because he has too nice an apartment, or like Lars, because they wouldn't see a straight man as being into world music, or being quirky and talented.
I see that scrapmetal7 is still running around on the boards accusing everyone else of being a troll...

Because you watched Serendipity. (not to mention your username LOLOLOLOLOL)
shareAaawww, what a snappy little comeback from you! Still doesn't negate the fact that you were wrong. Or is a troll.
But I'm sure that at least your mommy likes you.
But I'm glad that you at least were able to follow the dialogue in The 40 Year Old Virgin. Because Dear Zachary was apparently too complicated for you.

Maybe that movie had words with too many syllables for you to be able to follow the story?
hahaha! They had great chemistry is all :)
It's like there's a party in my mouth and everyone's throwing up.share
