Hitman:badass assassin, but still not gay.I know it's not really a gay movie, but Has anyone seen Hitman?I wanted to see that movie so bad.I love movies like this.I also kind of like Timothy Olyphant.I know 47 is supposed to be a loner, but I really wished he were gay.*LOL*I was on the message boards on IMDB and people were debating whether, or not, he was right for the role.There were a lot of people who wanted this to just be another Jason Statham flick. As if there aren't enough movies with him just kicking peoples' asses and blowing shit up with no plot, and fucking some chick *yawn* they want another one.Why can't we get one of those?I want one of those movies for our guys.I think it would be hot if 47 tapped Vin Diesel in this movie.*LOL*He's just the first guy I could think of because When I saw the trailer I couldn't see 47's face, just that bald head, and thought he was going to be in this movie. Something like this would reach gay icon status.......atleast in my eyes.Whenever I watch LOGO, and they're talking about gay icons I all I ever hear about are pop divas.I want to see a movie like that so bad, yet I know it'll never happen.Meanwhile, hollywood has no qaulms about churning out shit like The marine, which people forgot about like 5 seconds after it came out.The role of the hero, the bad ass, the sexy and mysterious assassin agent 47, this seems to be exclusively the domain of straight men.It's just not fair.

Must admit I usually
take a pass on hitman movies unless there is a twist to them. "Road to Perdition" was the exception since I love Tom Hanks as an actor, and Jude Law is one of my all-time favourite sexy actors. His performance as the psychopathic hit man was chilling.
Why don't we have gay hit men movies? Frankly I hate to say it, but most people would not believe the premise, just like they have a hard time accepting that hockey or football players may be gay, and until "Brokeback Mountain", cowboys.
That is not to say it won't happen, but the next movie with mainly gay characters will likely focus on professionals such as teachers or lawyers (I swear half the gay people I have met in Toronto have been teachers). Or perhaps blue-collar workers, which would actually be a nice change.

We Want Gay Action (Not neccessarily that kind of action)
I hear U dude. I always wanna watch flicks like James Bond or Indiana Jones with gay leads, maybe something like Scream or Fifth Element (Bruce Willis seems gay in that movie 2 me). But the only thing that matters 2 Hollywood is $$$ so U can rule out anything with special F/X. It's a lot cheaper 2 rent out a cruise ship 4 something like Boat Trip than to fly several film crews 2 multiple locations. Something like Sin City could work though cuz shooting B&W (not green screens) could create so many effects pretty much anywhere cheap. Even still Hollywood wants 2 make $$$ and gay doesn't sell to middle-America. Corruption, violence & every other sin is OK though (hypocrites!). Hollywood is trying though. They gave us Troy and 300 after all.
