New Adam Sandler Movie. Anti Gay or Gay Friendly?

[romantico]

Not sure what to make of this.

" I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry "
There is a new movie about gay couple but this time it's gay firefighters by Kevin James, playing Larry Valentine, a single dad trying to raise two kids on his own and Adam Sandler, in a role of Chuck Levine, a notorious playboy who has a new girl(s) every night.

I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry is a soon released comedy film about two straight, single Philadelphia firefighters (Sandler, James) pretend to be a gay couple in order to receive their department's domestic partner benefits. They try to keep their relationship a secret but it eventually gets out that they're a couple. Everyone they know starts treating them differently and they are witness to the discrimination homosexuals face on a regular basis. When they defend themselves, they defend gay people in general.

1. sounds like it could go either way

2. Then how come I'm laughing?

:rofl:

3. "anti-audience" if it's Sandler

[skygazer]

4. I don't know but those are 2 of the least funniest people

I can't stand either one of them.

5. It's an Adam Sandler movie so it's probably going to suck.

I sure there will be a lot of cheap jokes using gay stereotypes.

6. I agree

They're not even playing gay characters; they're playing straight characters who pretend to be gay. :eyes:

7. Maybe they are counting

on outrage from the gay community to help build publicity around the film.

8. If it's a Sandler movie

it's anti-comedy, anti-taste, anti-brain function...

9. If it's truly funny, it's probably a little of both.

I'm sure someone will be offended, both on the gay side of the issue and on the conservative anti-gay side.
