"In America" wank, because it was just too purty not to share.
I want the IMDb message boards to have my children. It's just so wonderful there. Everyone is happy and full of joy. People give virtual hugs and bouquets of flowers to each other. Children laugh and sing.
Wait, wait, sorry, I'm thinking of the wrong place.

So in this lovely thread for the movie "In America", monty_clift asks if anyone else was utterly embarrassed by how badly acted That One Scene was. You know, THAT scene. It was in the movie, at that one point...
It banters back and forth for a few posts. Most people seem to be agreeing with monty, that scene sucked acting wise. A few people retaliate saying that the scene was supposed to make you uncomfortable, DUH! A random few others mention that the writing was bad, the actors did the best they could.
The fact that they've all figured out what scene he was talking about in the first place still has me confused. But in general, it keeps itself in the realms of a civil disagreement.

By this point everyone knows that they're referring to the scene between Johnny and Mateo. The inevitable happens when joekay decides to point out that maybe some people are just a little homophobic and that's where the discomfort stems from. Americans get uncomfortable when guys are touchy feely apparently.

Watch the fit hit the proverbial shan. Laugh as it splatters.

I'm gay, and I say that wasn't it at all, therefore you're WRONG

It had nothing to do with being gay 'cause he mentioned loving chicks too, so there. =P

Watch as Joe backpedals himself right off the nearest cliff

It's badly written!
No, the actors just suck!
Stop generalizing about homophobic Americans!
Did not!
Did too!

People stop making sense

One guy actually makes a good point in Joe's defense. But it made coherent sense, and we all know that there just isn't a place for that kind of thing on the IMDb message boards! So it's totally ignored.

After that it stays pretty much on topic with people just debating the original issue of whether or not that one scene just sucked donkey balls. There's some name calling, deleted posts, and a whole lot of Americans versus the rest of the flipping world.
