Honorable Mentions: Spiderman, and Pirates of the Carribbean

I like a lot of the movies you've listed but a few I've never even heard of. Would love some info on "I Think I Do," "Beautiful Thing," "The Edge of Seventeen" and "Big Eden."

I LOVE the song "The Edge of Seventeen." Do they use the song in the movie?

As in not queer per se but very gay anyway.

"I Think I Do" is a gay romantic comedy. It's about a group of college housemates who get together for a wedding and the hilarity that ensues. It's very amusing.

"Beautiful Thing" is a must see. It's a British movie based on the play of the same name about two boys in a London housing project who fall in love.

"Edge of Seventeen" is a coming of age story set in an Ohio suburb during the 80's. It's very good, though not always happy. But very true to life. It's been a while since I've seen it, but I don't think the song is actually in the movie.

"Big Eden" is cute. A New Yorker moves back to the small Montana (might be Minnesota, doesn't really matter) town where he grew up to care for his ailing Grandfather. He's still hung up on his high school crush and doesn't realize when another man in town starts making romantic overatures. The really cute thing about it is, that he's all concerned about how the town will react if they find out he's gay, but pretty much everyone in town is secretly working to get him together with the guy who likes him.

Well, I will have to rent them. There is a video store about a mile from my house that is owned by a gay man and pretty much all the workers are gay and a big chunk of their customers are gay so I'll bet they have them all.

Oh, by the way, your icon is steamy hot! Have you ever posted a picture of yourelf?

Have you not seen "All Over the Guy", or did you just not like it?
