Ah, I love when people profess to be the experts on open minds.
Where in that quote did John say he was an expert on open minds????!! I though Johnthrax's comment was spot on and my respect for him has grown.
One can psycho analyze Metal thrashing Kansan's post on this matter. Let me begin:
The thoughts of this movie irked him enough to start a thread about it on, of all places, an Anthrax message board.
He mentions that you couldn't pay him enough money to watch it. I'm sure most of here would drop whatever we were doing and kill two hours if someone offered us, say a hundred bucks to go see this. A hundred not enough, maybe a G?? But Metal thrashing Kansan would avoid watching it at all costs. Why? Fear of liking it.
Fear of liking it. After all, he does end his original statement with, " Although the thought of cowboys being gay is amusing....."
Let's pause here for a moment to define comedy. Which is a genre of film that metal thrashing kansan has already professed his fondness for. When we watch stand up comics, they make us laugh by saying things we already knew. Their delivery of saying things that we all relate to, is just funny. It's amusing.
So if cowboys being gay is amusing, could it be that metal thrashing kansan is a closet case homophobe?? I would not be surprised at all. I'm probably gonna get a shit storm by him now. Maybe even racist remarks. He did once on the board rag on latino's. Made the ignorant comment of calling us all "mexicans".
Throwback Mountain is not a movie me and my friends would choose to go see. But I live in DC and I have friends of all races, age, color, gender, sexual orientation etc etc. If I happened to be with a group of friends that chose to watch this movie, I wouldn't cry like a bitch. I'd watch it with an open mind.
