At The Movies

I got lippy with Mr. Peenee's movie meme and ended up getting tagged. Here are the rules:

Blog Cabin's Alphabetical Movie Meme. The rules of the meme go something like this:
1. Pick one film to represent each letter of the alphabet.

2. The letter "A" and the word "The" do not count as the beginning of a film's title, unless the film is simply titled A or The, and I don't know of any films with those titles.

3. [As regards franchises and sequels,] movies are stuck with the titles their owners gave them at the time of their theatrical release. Use your better judgment to apply the above rule to any series/films not mentioned.

4. Films that start with a number are filed under the first letter of their number's word. 12 Monkeys would be filed under "T."

5. Link back to Blog Cabins in your post so that I can eventually type "alphabet meme" into Google and come up #1, then make a post where I declare that I am the King of Google.


6. If you're selected, you have to then select 5 more people.--

So, rather than just post a bunch of movie titles, I really challenged myself to come up with something different. I have created a list of Gay Themed/Sensibility Alphabetical movies! And yes, I have seen every one of them.
  1. All Over The Guy
  2. Boys In The Band
  3. Connie And Carla
  4. Doom Generation, The
  5. Edge of Seventeen
  6. Fluffer, The
  7. Gods And Monsters
  8. Hanging Garden, The
  9. I Think I Do
  10. Jeffrey
  11. Kiss Me, Guido
  12. Love! Valour! Compassion!
  13. Mambo Italiano ( very My Big Fat French-Canadian/Italian Wedding!)
  14. Notes on a Scandal
  15. Opposite of Sex, The
  16. Paris Is Burning
  17. Queen, The (because NOTHING is gayer than Royalty)
  18. Rebel Without A Cause
  19. Stonewall
  20. Touch of Pink
  21. Urbania
  22. Velvet Goldmine
  23. Wizard of Oz, The
  24. Xanadu (not much choice here, thankfully a rollerskating ONJ is pretty gay)
  25. Y Tu Mamá También (which wasn't really a gay movie, but ...)
  26. Zero Patience (A BAD Canadian movie musical about "Patient Zero")
If you've read this far, you should consider yourself tagged. Do try to come up with a different theme.

  1. That's a fun challenge - I'm impressed you came up with the whole list!

    Of course now you've pointed out several films I haven't seen, so now I have to get to work.

  4. Ooooh, congrats. I knew you'd knock this out of the park, but I had no idea you'd make it all gay and stuff. I'm VERY impressed.

    As to Connie and Carla, Billy WIlder must be spinning in the mausoleum. But the songs were good.
