an almost lesbian brokeback mountain


Everytime i watch this i kind of get that feeling that this would've been close to a"lesbian" version to brokeback mountain. The reason also why is both films' main focuses were on real-life issues: Brokeback mountain:Homosexuality,Homeroom: school shootings. And each real-life subject on each of these films brought both of each 2 main characters together in a peaceful environment away from the horrors of the world that both doubted and misunderstood them and gives them a chance to rethink over their lives and decisions. Another strange ironic thing of all this is that the titles of both these movies are nick named. Homeroom got its titled 'cuz when the 2 girls walked around the hospitial it was like a big "room" and they both kind of felt like they were "home" in peace away from reality and are both dreadfully forced to go back into it, kind of the same thing with"brokeback" when they were up on the mountains alone. There is also a scene in "homeroom" when erika christensen & Busy Philips are standing up on a hill, it kind of sanked in to me that scene was similar to "brokeback" and the scene at the end were busy breaks down on the ground and erika cuddles her in arms was similar to both heth legder and jake gillynhal in"brokeback" and of course,the other scene when erika and busy kiss but not because they loved each other,like i said before "homeroom" was close to being what "brokeback" became. I don't want u guys to think i'm crazy and all but what do u guys think,huh?

I don't see the relation. Sorry

i didn't see it either. i think the scene at the end was symbolic. it showed that alicia was finally breaking down all of her defenses. throughout the movie you can see that she keeps all her emotions bottled up. and through out the movie you see that alicia likes to give deanna a hard time but eventually they both learn to get through the hard times they are going through

I hate to say it.. but I think thats completely wrong.
I don't see any relationship between either of the movies.
Home Room is in a league of its own

LOL, i was about to say that too, its called Homeroom coz it took place in homeroom!
At my school in Australia, its called START or PREP or somthing they change it all the time, but its been the same group of like 15 people since year 7.

Thats not what I think about Home room, It has really nothing to do with Lesbians, at all.
I think it is the farthest thinig from from broke back mountian.

I didn't say it was a story about lesbians. What i meant was it kind of had a little bit of the elements to what brokeback mountain had, like for example: the 2 characters from both films: ennis & busy whom both started out as tough and with a bad attitude problem & goes to jack & erika who had like the more sensitive gitty schoolgirl/cowboy attitudes. both characters from each 2 films came from different worlds and just like i said before, Real -Life issues brought them together: brokeback: Homosexuality, Homeroom: School Shootings. and gave them a chance to rethink over their lives and decisions in a peaceful envirvonment away from a world that judged and misunderstood them like in: Brokeback: when they're up in the mountains alone in peace talkin' about their problems & of course,Homeroom: when their in the hospital & hospital room talkin' about each others problems in peace. The main reason why i prefered homeroom to brokeback was because of the kissing scenes 'cuz when i first saw Homeroom and when it got to the scene when busy & erika kissed( and i know they were not lesbians,first of all.) I quickly rethought back of the whole movie in my head & all of sudden "Brokeback Mountain" popped into my head. and the other scene when their standing up on a hill in the dark.( kind of similar to brokeback.) and of course the scenes from both movies close to the end when ennis & busy both brokedown and jack & erika comfort them in their arms. and Don't forget what i said before, when i first saw "Homeroom" the scenes between the 2 was almost that close for them to end up like lesbians, while i was watchin it the first time i was glued to see what might happen between them, would they go that far or not? was the kiss between them an example of what i thought would come? and of course, anyone who saw this movie the first time might had thought of,course the same thing. but of course, it didn't end up that way. and don't forget my title of this entry: ALMOST!!!!!! lesbian brokeback mountain....ALMOST!!!!!(WOULD'VE BEEN). and speakin' of it, after all the video parodies that was made on "Brokeback" on the "YOUTUBE" website like:Lethal Weapon: Brokeback Weapon, Rocky: Brokeback "Rocky" mountain and of course: Die Hard with a vengence: BrokeBack with a vengence, They should do one ON "Homeroom." Why not?, its perfect. You guys can take YOUR digital camcoders and take the scene of erika in "Swimfan" when she says:"YOU CAN STOP ALL THIS IF YOU JUST ADMIT IT...THAT YOU LOVE ME!!!!! and cut back to busy in "Homeroom" when she says:"WHO THE HELL DO YOU THINK YOU ARE?!!!!! AND OF COURSE, CUT BACK TO ERIKA IN "SWIMFAN" when says yells out:"YOU LOVE ME,I KNOW IT.!!!!!!" and of course, to have the "brokeback" theme music play over it in the back ground. and finally upload it in the"youtube"site. So,please guys do that for me 'cuz i don't have a camcoder and i'm totally dying to see it myself and i'm still looking for a job, so do that for me ,guys i would really appreciate it. "BROKEBACK HOMEROOM" perfect ring to it doesn't it? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!

Lay off the crack, chummy.
A single girl-on-girl peck on the lips does not a lesbo movie make. Get out in the real world and learn the difference between "blossoming friendship" and "bad excuse for porn".

I didn't have time to look through the other replies, but maybe, just maybe,its called homeroom because the shooting took place in homeroom.
Not because they feel home in a room.
idiot.
honestly I was wondering why people on this board were so rude but I get it now.
