Can you think of a better birthday present than a gay cowboy update?

30 minute interview with Ang Lee - I haven't downloaded it yet.

There are some colourbars here but I'm betting someone on my flist could make a better one... *bats eyelids*

Ang Lee's 'Brokeback' explores 'last frontier'

Newsweek Article.
The day Jake Gyllenhaal was cast in "Brokeback," the chatter around the industry was not about what a wise choice he'd made. "It's the most stupid move he could make," said one top producer over lunch that afternoon. "It'll alienate his teen-girl fan base and could kill his career. What a waste."
LOL they obviously don't know the teen-girl fan base that I know. For my sister's 15th birthday I'm taking her to see Brokeback Mountain. She's stoked. Seriously, I could have gotten her a car and she'd be less excited.

In an early meeting, Schamus told Lee that, from a marketing standpoint, they were making this film for one core audience. "Yes, of course," Lee said. "The gay audience." No, Schamus said. "Women."
Now, HE gets it.

When it came time to design the poster for the film, Schamus didn't research posters of famous Westerns for ideas. He looked at the posters of the 50 most romantic movies ever made. "If you look at our poster," he says, "you can see traces of our inspiration, 'Titanic'."
...okay, you know what? I want to quote the whole article. So just go read it. The only sad thing is that some blogger apologised for calling it a gay cowboy film...but I've ranted about that often enough, I think.

So what's big deal? Some cowpunchers in Wyoming are gay - this one's in response to this article that I linked in my last post.

Proulx shoots holes in mythic Wyoming (you have to scroll down for this one) - an older article about the book.

Mountain Man - Jake gets himself all exited about his girlfriend who lives in Canada Alberta. Aww, Maggie cried at the movie!

ENNIS (cont'd)
Me and my brother we...we went
and got ourselves some work on a
ranch up near Worland. Until I was
nineteen. He got married and ahh...
no more room for me. That's how
come ahh... me end up here. What?

Silence

Jack looks over to Ennis, smiles.

ENNIS (cont'd)
...What?

JACK
Friend, that's more words than you've
spoke in the past two weeks.

Ennis smiles for the first time.

ENNIS
Two weeks? Hell, its the most
I've spoke in a year.













Is it gay cowboy month yet?

Thanks so much for the links/pics. I'm not sure if you noticed that I friended you I couple of weeks back, primarily for icons, but the BBM news has been awesome, as I've been following it really closely myself and passing info onto my own friends list.

So, thanks again. *tips hat*

I'm sorry, I didn't notice. I mean no offence to you, but I have rather a large friends-of list. I'm flattered that you enjoy my journal though, and I promise I'll keep updating with BBM news :) If you want news on a more regular basis I reccommend [livejournal.com profile] wranglers, it's a great community!

Oh, haha, nooo, I'm not offended. I have a pretty large friend-of list myself, so I totally feel you there. I'm not expecting a friend back or anything, just wanted to let you know why this random person was commenting. ;o)

And I do watch [livejournal.com profile] wranglers and [livejournal.com profile] gay_cowboys both, thanks. Oh, and have a happy birthday!

It's not the 15th here quite yet, but Happy Birthday! :D

That's Mrs. Maggie Grace to you. We'll just move to Canada where it's legal. XD

Thankyou!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY :D

Have a wonderful day, and spam all you like!!!!

*flail*

Good GOD. I CAN'T WAIT.

And this is me, who generally tries to get as far away as possible from her prairie roots as she can at all times, who will not date a man who owns a Stetson unless it is in jest or he's as hot as that, and who cannot abide cowboy boots.

Jaaaaaake. Heeeeeath. *drools on keyboard*

Oh, yeah - Happy Birthday. Sorry. I think I must have got distracted. I can't imagine how. :D :D :D

From: [identity profile] green-queen.livejournal.com


That's more than understandable. XD

I don't like dickheaded closed-minded cowboys but there's something about the cowboy look that's just *guh*.

Happy birthday!

Having read those quotes...I have to see that movie immediately.

From: [identity profile] green-queen.livejournal.com


I want to see it so badly that I was actually considering buying a plane ticket to Melbourne on the spur of the moment to leave IN TWO HOURS TIME on the weekend just to see a preview screening that I probably wouldn't get into. It's like love, I think.

From: [identity profile] snuffkin.livejournal.com


It`s still the 14th here *g*

But anyway!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY *hugs*


Happy Birthday to youuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

Happy Birthday! and how sucky was it that Lee left last night on Idol?

From: [identity profile] green-queen.livejournal.com


Sucktastically sucky. What a boring final it will be.

Although I was watching Rove tonight and he said the title of the song was "Maybe Tonight" and I suddenly went "I am SO GLAD neither Dan nor Lee had to sing that piece of shit song, ever."

If you tell me what pictures you want me to use, I'll make you a colourbar!

From: [identity profile] green-queen.livejournal.com


Awesome, thanks!

Personally I think it'd look good in that order, but feel free to experiment.

From: [identity profile] flamingo-killer.livejournal.com


Sorry about the delay! I was at school.

There are a bunch of different options--so far. If you want different text, border, colouring, order, size, or anything, tell me and I'll do my best to make it exactly how you like it!

^For this one, I used a slightly different order and different colouring to show you what other options there are.

Let me know what you'd like, and I'll get on it asap!

From: [identity profile] green-queen.livejournal.com


I really like the third one, it's awesome, but I think it looks better in the same order as the fourth one - do you think you could do the same colour/text/etc. as the third one just with the same order as the fourth?

Thanks, it's looking fantastic!

Let me know what else you want changed :)
