Hollywood has to take a decent movie and add their modern, liberal agenda to it with the addition of the gay character. People are getting sick and tired of this agenda being forced on them everywhere you turn.
sharehahahahahahahahaha................ wait this wasn't a joke?
you have to ask yourself are you a fighter, or are you zombie food

Please.
shareI understand your point somewhat. I rather think that adding gay characters can sometimes just be tokenism and can be unnecessary to the plot or character dynamics.
However, in this case, Vardalos is sharing a real experience from her family. It's her family story and her life on screen so she should be allowed to tell it the way she wants to.
I did not know it was based on a family member.
Sweetheart, open your eyes. Gay people are here and have been for all time.
Hollywood didn't invent them.
you re gonna need a bigger boat.
I understand that. What I don't like is this whole agenda continually being forced into our faces. Myself and a whole lot of other people are getting sick of it. I don't care what you do in your personal life, just stop shoving it in our faces and forcing us to accept it.
sharehere's an idea, stop shoving religion down our throats.
shareYeah. Guns are the only thing conservatives like to have shoved down their throats. And Jesus. Jesus is always welcome to come inside them.
share"This whole agenda"? What are you talking about? Being gay is just normal real life. Nobody is "shoving it in your face". It's just people living their normal lives.

Thank you.
shareYou clearly DON'T understand, since you think it's an agenda.
No one's shoving anything in your backwards face. You really need to stop expecting anyone to do as you say. If you don't like it, don't watch.
You should just stick to movies like Heaven Is For Real or God's Not Dead, the typical crap you hardcore, homophobic nutters make. Maybe ask Kirk Cameron for his recommendations.
'I don't care what you do in your personal life, just stop shoving it in our faces'
I have a funny feeling that you like it having it shoved in your face. The bigger and blacker, the better.
It's that man again!!
Silly. Just stop watching movies then. The rest of the world has moved on. Save the energy you're wasting on outrage for more important things.
shareWhen homophobes complain about gay people existing as having it "shoved in their faces", when heterosexuality is shoved in the faces of the LGBTQ community 24/7. Think about that, ok?
share> Sweetheart, open your eyes. Gay people are here and have been for all time.
> Hollywood didn't invent them.
I think the issue here is the gay character didn't have a storyline. It was just kind of "shoved-in" there, and there was no relevancy to the plot, and they're was no story arc, and it wasn't developed.
They added a gay character to simply add a gay character to pander to an audience. And it fell flat.
Yes, this exactly. I think the OP just worded their post wrong
shareNo, he worded it quite clearly. He didn't like the fact there was a gay character in the movie because he does not agree with the homosexual lifestyle, and that this addition was an attempt at forcing him to accept homosexuals. "Liberal Hollywood agenda" is what he's calling it.

Agenda? Being shoved in your face? Did we see the same movie? I remember a brief passing mention that a minor character had a partner, and then that partner met and said hello to his boyfriend's family at the wedding. The storyline took up less than a minute of screen time. I honestly had forgotten that small element until reading your post. If after seeing this movie, a gay agenda is what you got from it, you may need to seek treatment from a professional.
sharegod I am so *beep* sick of you stupid conservatives, "liberal this liberal that" gtfo of the country if you don't like progress, you un-American pieces of *beep* In fact, get off the planet because we're all sick of you childish ignorant BRATS.
shareOh get the hell out of here with your ignorant BS! WTF is this "gay agenda"? Its not being forced on you or anyone, you piece of $hit, its natural to be gay and they are living their lives.

There isn't a "gay agenda". I'm gay and I don't have an agenda. Never got the hang of them. Plus, we're too busy focusing on actual matters than worrying about what is being shoved down your throat and trust me, what you do behind closed doors is your business. Just remember to come up for air every once in a while
shareWow! What a tolerant and enlightened response, So much for being accepting of diversity and everyone's beliefs huh? Isn't that what your side is always screaming? Hypocrites...
shareNo tolerance for self-righteous prick a_s_s_h_o_l_e_s.
shareThanks for proving my point.
You're doing a great job, keep it up.
What point? That you're a c_u_n_t? You proved that yourself with your first post.
shareKeep it up with the with name-calling. It just shows how immature you are and keeps taking away any credibility you might have had.
shareWhen you post homophobic comments, you should expect insults to be thrown at you. Your initial post was highly immature and insulting (and just because YOU don't see it that way, doesn't mean it's not), so I don't know why you'd expect anyone to be nice to you. It's also ironic that you have the nerve to say something like "and keeps taking away any credibility you might have had." when you've shown zero credibility in this thread. Sorry.
That user's right in calling you that.
Sorry, wrong again.
There was nothing insulting in my initial post. I made the post to have an intelligent conversation with mature adults, there was no name-calling in it whatsoever. If you somehow found that insulting...then wow...I don't know what to say other than you got to get out more into the real world. It's a big scary world out there, with people who have beliefs different than yours, I know you find that "racist, homophobic, bigoted", or whatever other labels that are the popular fad right now, however it's the world you live in. It would be a boring world if everyone agreed with each other.
Move along folks, nothing to see here. Just your average title baiting homophobe.
Ya know OP, if the lgbt community were simply afforded the same rights and protections as the rest of us you'd have no leg to stand on.
You people and your slight differences disgust me.
