I have no intention...
...of seeing Brokeback Mountain. Will I be branded as anti-gay too?

I was about to post on this, then I had to leave my computer and it rebooted itself due to installing an update.
My point was going to be the usual: unless you're in 200% agreement with GLAAD and other liberal groups, you're branded as anti-whatever-their-cause-is. These people seem to forget that by nature, a critic offers his opinion. An opinion, is just that - an opinion. Everyone's welcome to one, even if everyone else doesn't agree with it. So if Shalit chooses to label one of the characters a "predator", well, that's his opinion.
Anyway, I can't think of a movie I'd rather not see.
