Austin Robert Butler, born August 17, 1991, in Anaheim, California, is an American actor and singer. Butler was discovered at the very young age of thirteen when he was approached by a representative from a background-acting management company at the Orange County Fair, who helped him get started in the entertainment industry. He found that he really enjoyed it, and began taking a few acting classes.

Love me Not – Short Film Stills by Bell Soto

Bell Soto continues to impress me with his wide range of artistic expression using not only photography but also short films. He has a unique way in capturing the human experience and its expressive soul in ways which are so unique it makes you wonder about the meaning and beauty of it all. In his short film Love me Not, he takes on a different approach to the human interaction known as Love. It gives a sense of loneliness, dream like state as well as a deep feeling of existential dilemma when dealing with such an important feeling to most humans. Love is an abstract notion, it is volatile. It is as much invigorating as it is consuming, one can almost say love is a living entity in its own, non corporeal as much as imaginative, ethereal…

Disney Revisited

I grew up watching Disney movies. I used to watch them with such passion I would get lost in them for hours. I grew up watching prince charming after prince charming. Princesses of all sorts, blond and brunette, red head, all waiting to find their one true love. Villains and good guys. Evil Queens and lovely fairies, and so I too had a crush on the goodhearted princes and wondered what it would be like to be awaken by a kiss… Unfortunately life never turns out to be that way, but I always felt deep inside a sense of longing and of course erotic. Here we have a few representations of the homoerotic subtext of Disney movies, which if you’ve paid much attention has grown rapidly in the last decade (check out some of the phrases used during each movie). So for your enjoyment and of course mine as well here we have alternative versions of how love stories should have gone. Enjoy them… 😀

The way Snow White spoke, always gave me the impression of a girl suffering form abandonment syndrome, daddy issues and a bit of psychosis, so no wonder she went straight for the bottle when her dreams didn’t come true.  I guess the evil Queen gave the apple to the right two guys 🙂148577_552591638102547_707212993_n

Poor Ariel, she exchanged her voice for legs and when she got them and walked to the shore Robin Hood was already there to gladly take her place, so she went to get her fins back. What’s the point of having legs if you’re not gonna use them right?538143_191492380978341_1003458321_n

Ah evil doers. We call them villains, we demonize them, but did we ever stop and think that behind that hard-ass facade there was a creature who was waiting to blossom?312322_560303290664715_1499703212_n Continue reading

Bruised

Roy Cohn[delirious, under the impression that Belize is the Angel of Death] Can I ask you something, sir?

Belize: “Sir”?

Roy Cohn: What’s it like? After?

Belize: After…?

Roy Cohn: This misery ends?

Belize: Hell or heaven?

Roy Cohn[laughs]

Belize: Like San Francisco.

Roy Cohn: A city! Good! I was worried… it’d be a garden. I hate that shit.

Belize: Mmmm. Big city. Overgrown with weeds, but flowering weeds. On every corner a wrecking crew and something new and crooked going up catty corner to that. Windows missing in every edifice like broken teeth, gritty wind, and a gray high sky full of ravens. Prophet birds, Roy. Piles of trash, but lapidary like rubies and obsidian, and diamond-colored cowspit streamers in the wind. And voting booths. And everyone in Balenciaga gowns with red corsages, and big dance palaces full of music and lights and racial impurity and gender confusion. And all the deities are creole, mulatto, brown as the mouths of rivers. Race, taste and history finally overcome. And you ain’t there.

Roy Cohn: And Heaven?

Belize: That was Heaven, Roy.

Roy Cohn: The fuck it was!

 

Supernatural – The Gay Under-Current Of

I didn’t say it, and I can’t take credit for it, but after watching this video, which by the way made me laugh so hard (specially the leather daddy thing), and I know all of you want “hard” evidence, see for yourself how Supernatural is a bit on the brother/lover side. If you ever happened to catch the bloopers and behind the scenes, it’ll be more apparent to all of you. Enjoy the video…

P.S. It’s a pity the video is called “Funny Gay Moments”, cose it kinda underscores the whole fun part, and they sure are not moments, the homosexual under-current is visible in more than these just these few clips.

 

If You Go Away (Ne Me Quitte Pas)

It seems at times the universe works so that you can finally get in touch with the pain you’re feeling, but never allowed yourself to admit to it and allow it to come to the surface. This is how I came across this video collage this afternoon, with a wonderful song sang by Barbara Streisand.

I would like to re-dedicate it to all those we have loved and lost. Most of all I want to dedicate it to myself, the ME which has been lost and replaced by a shadow of my former self.

Scary Movie – The Best of Brenda

In the spirit of Halloween remember tonight when you got to the movies, not to end up like Brenda, she became Halloween itself…

And of course you can’t count on her for any help she’ll leave you high and dry right away…

 

You’ve Got to Love Star Trek

How can you not love Star Trek? I mean when you have two hunks like Zachary Quinto and Chris Pine. I never understood how in the 24th century these two never tied the knot?

Lucianus and His Two Dads

 

Just like Rachel Berry on Glee, I’m also proud of my two gay dads, and I just like her I wanted them to be known in my blog. So here they are Adam and Steve, love you guys… 😀 You taught me so much about what to wear, when and how to match up outfits. The difference between black leather and brown leather. Safety and limits of S&M and BDSM, and the kind of lube to use for best satisfaction (which BTW it’s called GUN Oil, for real). See u guys when u come back from your cruise featuring Margaret Cho, Ice Capades, Wanda Sykes and The San Francisco Gay Men’s Chorus.

 

Torch Song Trilogy (Revisited)

As most of you already know, Torch Song Trilogy is one of my all time favorite movies for many reasons. It is funny, witty, sad and full of moments where you see yourself in one character or the next. After having said this, there’s one message, one saying in the entire movie which encompasses my feelings exactly, and thus I had to share it with you…

True Blood Season 5 (June 10th 2012)

Ok you blood sucker loving fans + one (me), True Blood season 5 is almost here. In a weeks time we’ll be sinking out teeth in our favorite character which has kept us glued to our TV sets for the last 4 years. Needless to say this will be a very happy reunion for myself since sinking teeth into people is my favorite pastime, which also tells a lot about the reason I’m alone and dateless, lol. Here’s a riddle for ya; who’s gonna live, who’s gonna die, tell me who’s gonna be sucked dry? Anyhow here are some posters from the upcoming season five of True Blood. Enjoy them

I loved Sookie from the very first episode where she told vampire Bill not to sass her…that’s how you make a vampire want more than just be fed…Girl, I love me some Eric Northman a.k.a Alexander Skarsgård. He’s bad, he’s the sheriff, and he sure knows how to make a girl just give it all up, so since Sookie ain’t giving any, I’m available Eric, they say me and Sookie look just alike…

Günther: Maybe it’s true that people are only truly happy once in their lives. Just once. And then they are punished for it. For the rest of their lives. The punishment is that they never forget that one moment.

Beautiful Men – Joe Kavitsky / Sex by Crucifixion

Joe says, “You need to be comfortable with who you are. Know what you are willing to stand for and how far you are willing to go to realize your dreams…sometimes people will try to compromise your art. It is at those definitive moments where decisions must be made. By understanding your own belief system and having clearly defined goals, you can make educated choices that you are proud of.”

The Divine Sophia Loren

In 1962, Sophia Loren, among 21 other awards, won the Academy Award for Best Actress for her role in Two Women, becoming the first actress to win an Academy Award for a non-English-speaking performance. Loren has won 50 international awards, including one Golden Globe Award, a Grammy Award, a BAFTA Award and a Laurel Award. (source http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sophia_Loren)

Torch Song Trilogy

Arnold: There’s one more thing you better understand. I have taught myself to sew, cook, fix plumbing, build furniture – I can even pat myself on the back when necessary – all so I don’t have to ask anyone for anything. There’s nothing I need from anyone except for love and respect and anyone who can’t give me those two things has no place in my life. –  Whoops? Ed, did you say “whoops”? No, Ed. “Whoops” is when you fall down an elevator shaft. “Whoops” is when you skinny-dip in a school of piranha. “Whoops” is when you accidentally douche with Drano! No, Ed. This was no “whoops.” This was an AAAAAAAAAAAAAHA-HA-HA-HA! – A ugly person who goes after a pretty person gets nothing but trouble. But a pretty person who goes after a ugly person gets at least cab fare. – Torch Song Trilogy (1988)

The Dreamers

Matthew: I was one of the insatiables. The ones you’d always find sitting closest to the screen. Why do we sit so close? Maybe it was because we wanted to receive the images first. When they were still new, still fresh. Before they cleared the hurdles of the rows behind us. Before they’d been relayed back from row to row, spectator to spectator; until worn out, secondhand, the size of a postage stamp, it returned to the projectionist’s cabin. Maybe, too, the screen was really a screen. It screened us… from the world. – The Dreamers (2003)

Requiem for a Dream

Sara Goldfarb: I’m somebody now, Harry. Everybody likes me. Soon, millions of people will see me and they’ll all like me. I’ll tell them about you, and your father, how good he was to us. Remember? It’s a reason to get up in the morning. It’s a reason to lose weight, to fit in the red dress. It’s a reason to smile. It makes tomorrow all right. What have I got Harry, hm? Why should I even make the bed, or wash the dishes? I do them, but why should I? I’m alone. Your father’s gone, you’re gone. I got no one to care for. What have I got, Harry? I’m lonely. I’m old. – Requiem for a Dream (2000)

Guido: “What is this flash of joy that’s giving me new life? Please forgive me sweet creatures; I didn’t realize, I didn’t know. How right it is to accept you, to love, you… and how simple! Luisa, I feel I’ve been set free. Everything looks good to me, it has a sense, it’s true. How I wish I could explain, but I can’t… everything’s going back to what it was. Everything’s confused again, but that confusion is me; how I am, not how I’d like to be. And I’m not afraid to tell the truth now, what I don’t know, what I’m seeking. Only like that do I feel alive and I can look into your loyal eyes without shame. Life is a party, let’s live it together. I can’t say anything else, to you or others. Take me as I am, if you can… it’s the only way we can try to find each other.” ( –1963)

Renaissance (2006)

Though I’m not a big fan of anime, I decided to watch this movie last night as it was highly recommended on the net blogs I follow. Knowing very well how harsh I am as a critic of sorts of all the moves I watch, I decided to keep an open mind on this particular one. Continue reading

A Psychotic Episode (Puppet on a String)

I had the day off yesterday, and for the first time in a long time, I decided to stay in bed and do nothing. I watched two movies that totally changed me on many levels. I know it’s hard to believe two movies can do that in one day, yet their message was excessively strong for me to ignore. The first movie was Wristcutters: A love Story (2006) read more here http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0477139/. The second and most important was Stranger Than Fiction (2006), see more here http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0420223/.  This one, though a comedy, it’s precisely one of the most insightful movies I’ve ever seen. Never really been a big fan of Will Ferrell, I find him obsolete and absurd and to think he’s one of the mot paid actors in Hollywood proves how mediocrity rules today’s arts. Yet, in this movie, he gives a great performance of a man not in charge of his life, as his life is being written by an author (Emma Thompson). Now having Emma Thomson in any movie changes it into a real gem of art. She can express feelings in such a way that’s impossible not to just hang on to every word she says, every facial expression, and every move. Continue reading

Daniel Brühl – The Face Behind Acting

After watching Ladies in Lavender http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0377084/ and Was Nützt Die Liebe In Gedanken (Love In Thoughts) http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0325733/  I had to post something about this guy. He captivated me with his way of acting which is so natural and it just flows. Born Daniel César Martín Brühl González Domingo on 16 June 1978 is a Spanish/German actor. He is best known as Daniel Brühl. Brühl was born in Barcelona, Catalonia, Spain. His father was the late German stage director Hanno Brühl and his mother was a Spanish professor. He also has a brother and a sister. Shortly after his birth his family moved to Cologne, Germany, where he grew up and attended the Dreikönigsgymnasium. Brought up in a fully multilingual home, he speaks Spanish, German, Catalan, French and English.
