discussion Big budget romcom gay film Bros acclaimed by critics, surprised?

[MingYouToo]

We finally get a tacky, cleverly written and cliche romantic comedy written by us, for us and with us in it! And the critics love it!

 

85% on RT

75 on MC

Review bombed on IMDb but 93% on the Popularity scale

 

A win for the gays I fear, will you be SEATED for the romcom of the season?! OUT ON SEPTEMBER 30!

 

 

 

[GraceRandolph]

I’m just scared it’ll flop and send us gays back to the Stone Age.

 

[Headlock]

Gay people playing gay people works, who knew 

[Solaria]

Is that Miss Lawrence? HE WON!

early audience reviews have been RAVING about it being a genuinely good romcom, straight or not, box office predictors are predicting a 20-30M opening, big for a romcom especially given its queer!

[Mr. Blue_Shirt]

Of course it's male (possibly straight) in their 30s to 40+ who review bombed it on IMDb  

 

It's giving desperate

I love his "Billy On The Street" skits on youtube. He's a genuinely funny guy

[getBusy]

Ok getting tickets to see this ASAP

[Nido]

[Uncatena]

I’ve been waiting for a movie like this tbh, I’m so over the tragedy porn. Give me mid, cheesy gay romcoms all day.

RIGHT and Billy has constantly said that this isnt some deep faux artsy romance film. This is ******* popcorn cheesy romcom through and through and thats what this is WE WON!

[mxoonlight]

Not interested but good for them, hope it leads to more queer films getting theatrical releases

[lovedaddy]

 

Harry Styles can't relate

[Sharapov]

thats looks so unapealling

[monologueNacafe]

looks cute

[elevate]

Cute. Gives off a bit of a Fire Island vibe, which was also pretty fun. Definitely here for more lighthearted queer romcoms.

[TaylorNation]

i’ve been a Billy OG stan since his Conan days, but ever since he became another generic LA muscle gay he changed so much..

 

it’s kinda sad 

 

this movie is great for representation but still feels toxic af. I will probably skip it

They're all trash?

 

OT: I watched the whole trailer with a straight face. Hard pass.

Well if the community had any unity and vision they would support movies like this so more queer movies were made, but as you can see in this thread being petty and bitchy is more important...

[slik]

Billy Eichner is obnoxious and I have no interest in seeing it.

It's also not okay to call people names like that... The queer communities across the world have been very segmented and it makes sense why when you think about it. All that persecution and taught homophobia has kept most queer people away from each other and so identifying as one is only getting better now. There will be a time when the communities across the world will learn to stand up for each other and rally together for things that we can all relate to like this..it's not pettiness, it's just that others haven't seen the light yet

Cant wait to see the Mariah endorsed flick
