THE ABSURDLY SUCCSFUL ACTN MOVI, MA PRIMARILY BY ITALIAN STUDS, BEME CULT HS AMONG A VERY PARTICULAR AND THEN-IGNORED SEGMENT OF THE DIENCE. NONE OF THE ORIGAL “HERCUL” SERI PRENTED AN EROTICIZED PROTAGONIST AS SUCH, BUT THEY WERE EROTICIZED ANYWAY BY THE GAY MUNY THAT TOOK THEM , A MUNY THAT AT THAT TIME WAS STILL VERY MUCH A CLOSETED AND ABED MORY THE UNED STAT.

NOT THAT MAJOR RELEAS ARE EVER MA WH GAY PEOPLE SPECIFILLY MD AS A TARGET DIENCE, BUT THE WIR CULTURE HAS ACCEPTED THE FACT THAT GAY PEOPLE EXIST. NOT THAT THE DOMANCE OF THE STRAIGHT MALE GAZE IS GONE, BUT THE EXISTENCE OF BOTH GAY MALE AND FEMALE SIRE IS REGNIZED BY MOVI. SO, HERE’S THE QUTN: WHILE THE OLD PEPLUM FILMS ACCINTALLY STUMBLED TO GAY SIRE, IS POSSIBLE THAT THE NEW BATCH OF BIGGER-BUDGET HOLLYWOOD SWORD AND SANDAL MOVI ARE VG ?{BOX-SIZG:BORR-BOX;PADDG:24PX 0;} A{LOR:#F3F3F3;-WEBK-TEXT-RATN:UNRLE;TEXT-RATN:UNRLE;} A:HOVER, A:FOC{-WEBK-TEXT-RATN:NONE;TEXT-RATN:NONE;} B, STRONG{FONT-WEIGHT:700;}BELIEVE OR NOT, ’S HAS A LOT TO DO WH SPECIAL EFFECTS. THE BODY OF HERCUL (OR SAMSON, OR MACISTE, OR GOLIATH OR WHOEVER) WAS THE PRIMARY VISUAL DRAW OF THE ITALIAN PEPLUM FLICK, THE SOURCE OF THE ACTN. LOOK NO FURTHER THAN MY PERSONAL FAVORE ANACHRONISTIC MS, 1963’S “HERCUL AND THE MASKED RIR.” THE FILM IS SET SPA THE 16TH CENTURY, BEE WHY NOT? HERCUL IS A BLON, HULKG GYPSY PLAYED BY ALAN STEEL, BUT THE PLOT IS MOSTLY ABOUT DON JUAN (THE ALMOST-AS-BEEFY MIMMO PALMARA). ACTUALLY, HERCUL HAS VERY LTLE TO DO EXCEPT ACT AS DON JUAN’S SUPPORT, SHOWG UP TO THROW THGS AROUND AND FLEX FOR THE MERA. ALAN STEEL, AS HERCUL, PLAYS THE ROLE OF THE SPECIAL EFFECTS AN ACTN MOVIE ABOUT SOMEONE {BOX-SIZG:BORR-BOX;PADDG:24PX 0;} A{LOR:#F3F3F3;-WEBK-TEXT-RATN:UNRLE;TEXT-RATN:UNRLE;} A:HOVER, A:FOC{-WEBK-TEXT-RATN:NONE;TEXT-RATN:NONE;} B, STRONG{FONT-WEIGHT:700;}THERE ARE PLENTY OF MOVI WHICH HERCUL IS MORE CENTRAL TO THE PLOT, BUT THE ATHETICS ARE THE SAME. THE MERA IS OBSSED WH THE SIZE AND SHAPE OF THE MCLEMAN, AND THE WAY THAT HE MOV, BUT ’S DONE WHOUT EVEN A HT OF SELF-AWARENS. IN “THE FURY OF HERCUL” (1962), BRAD HARRIS AS HERCUL ACTUALLY SHOWS UP TO EVERY FIGHT SCENE WH AN EXTRA LAYER OF BODY OIL. THIS IS EVEN TE OF THE STEVE REEV FILMS, CLUDG THE 1958 ORIGAL. HIS MCL UPSTAGE THE ACTUAL SPECIAL EFFECTS, NOT LEAST OF WHICH IS AN ENORMO MAKHIFT DRAGON THAT FALLS OVER AFTER A VERY SHORT FIGHT WH THE YOUNG {BOX-SIZG:BORR-BOX;PADDG:24PX 0;} A{LOR:#F3F3F3;-WEBK-TEXT-RATN:UNRLE;TEXT-RATN:UNRLE;} A:HOVER, A:FOC{-WEBK-TEXT-RATN:NONE;TEXT-RATN:NONE;} B, STRONG{FONT-WEIGHT:700;}THE LEGACY OF THE OLD FILMS IS THEREFORE ONE OF GIDDY, NOCENT OBSSN WH THE MALE FORM. IT’S ALMOST REMISCENT OF PROFSNAL WRTLG, ANOTHER MCLE-OBSSED CULTURAL FORM THAT OFTEN CHOOS TO IGNORE THE EROTIC POTENTIAL OF S GREASE AND S TIGHT BRIGHTLY-LORED BRIEFS. AND PROFSNAL WRTLG IS STILL AROUND, LOUDLY. HAVE THGS CHANGED THAT MUCH?{BOX-SIZG:BORR-BOX;PADDG:24PX 0;} A{LOR:#F3F3F3;-WEBK-TEXT-RATN:UNRLE;TEXT-RATN:UNRLE;} A:HOVER, A:FOC{-WEBK-TEXT-RATN:NONE;TEXT-RATN:NONE;} B, STRONG{FONT-WEIGHT:700;}LOOKG OVER THE LAST , THE EVINCE IS MIXED. “TROY” WAS ABSOLUTELY PLIC THE EROTIC PRENTATN OF S MA CHARACTERS. IT FEATUR BRAD PT’S BODY, OFTEN RTG RATHER THAN FIGHTG, AND OCSNALLY MOSTLY-NAKED A TENT OF FURS. THAT’S TO SAY NOTHG OF THE RT OF THE ST. IT’S A SHAME THE MOVIE WAS SO {BOX-SIZG:BORR-BOX;PADDG:24PX 0;} A{LOR:#F3F3F3;-WEBK-TEXT-RATN:UNRLE;TEXT-RATN:UNRLE;} A:HOVER, A:FOC{-WEBK-TEXT-RATN:NONE;TEXT-RATN:NONE;} B, STRONG{FONT-WEIGHT:700;}HOWEVER, THE FLUENCE OF ZACK SNYR’S “300” CHANG THGS A B. NOT NTENT TO SIMPLY E THE EXAGGERATED MASCULY OF THE BODYBUILR PHYSIQUE AS A SPECIAL EFFECT, SPECIAL EFFECTS ARE ED ON THE MALE FORM. THE RULT IS A GROUP OF SPARTANS THAT PHYSILLY OVERWHELM, A FEVERISH FANTASY OF MASCULY. THE STUM REVEAL FAR MORE SK THAN ALMOST ANYTHG AN OLD HERCUL MOVIE, AND SNYR TOSS A FEW MOMENTS OF ACTUAL NUDY JT TO MAKE SURE YOU’VE NOTICED . IN A SENSE, “300”IS A PERFECT EXAMPLE OF A MORN SWORD AND SANDAL FILM THAT BOTH MATAS THE ACTN POTENTIAL OF THE EXCSIVELY BUILT MALE FORM AND RPORAT A NSCNS OF S EROTIC {BOX-SIZG:BORR-BOX;PADDG:24PX 0;} A{LOR:#F3F3F3;-WEBK-TEXT-RATN:UNRLE;TEXT-RATN:UNRLE;} A:HOVER, A:FOC{-WEBK-TEXT-RATN:NONE;TEXT-RATN:NONE;} B, STRONG{FONT-WEIGHT:700;}THEN AGA, THE SNYR’S EPIC OF WEIRD VLENCE ALSO HAS SOME OTHER IAS. IT’S EQUALLY TERTED THE GROTQUE, OPPOSG THE ENGEERED ADONIS OF SPARTA WH AN ARMY OF CREASGLY HORRIFIC PERSIANS. WHEN EPHIALT, MA REPULSIVE BY THE FILM WH PALPABLE GLEE, FALLY ENTERS THE PERSIAN ROYAL TENT TO BETRAY THE SPARTANS, HE IS MET BY A SICKLY Y THAT SEEMS TO INTIFY TRANSGRSIVE SEXUAL AND GENR IAS WH EVERYTHG DISGTG ABOUT PERSIA. THIS IS OPPOSED TO A SPARTAN GENR BARY OF ENRAGED MALE MCULATURE AND A LONELY LENA HEAY TO STAND FOR EVERYTHG FEME ABOUT THE {BOX-SIZG:BORR-BOX;PADDG:24PX 0;} A{LOR:#F3F3F3;-WEBK-TEXT-RATN:UNRLE;TEXT-RATN:UNRLE;} A:HOVER, A:FOC{-WEBK-TEXT-RATN:NONE;TEXT-RATN:NONE;} B, STRONG{FONT-WEIGHT:700;}ONE ASSUM THAT THE SEQUEL WILL BE AK TO THAT. BUT WHAT ABOUT THE RT OF THE OVERABUNDANCE OF PEPLUM THIS YEAR? THIS WEEK WE GET THE NEW “HERCUL” AFTER ALL, A MOVIE WHICH SEEMS STED TO FALL SOMEWHERE THE MIDDLE. THE TRAILER HTS AT ELEMENTS OF THE “300” STYLE, EXAGGERATED FIGHTG MECHANICS TO PLEMENT THE EXAGGERATED PHYSIL PRENCE OF KELLAN LUTZ. BUT THIS IS ALSO GOG TO BE A LOVE STORY, AND ONE BUILT AROUND A MAN OM THE “TWILIGHT” STABLE OF BEEFK. LUTZ HAS ALREADY BEEN THE EROTIC OBJECT FILMS DIRECTED AT A PRIMARY FEMALE DIENCE, AND ONE N ONLY ASSUME THAT HIS STG WAS AT LEAST RMED BY THAT. THE MEDIA IS OBSSED WH HIS WORKOUT ROUTE, BUT WHAT EXACTLY DO THAT IMPLY?{BOX-SIZG:BORR-BOX;PADDG:24PX 0;} A{LOR:#F3F3F3;-WEBK-TEXT-RATN:UNRLE;TEXT-RATN:UNRLE;} A:HOVER, A:FOC{-WEBK-TEXT-RATN:NONE;TEXT-RATN:NONE;} B, STRONG{FONT-WEIGHT:700;}AT THE END OF THE DAY DO THIS MEAN ANYTHG?

INTERTGLY, THE SAFT PLAC FOR MALE NUDY ON SCREEN APPEAR TO BE EDI OF RIDICULE AND THE SUPPOSEDLY HYPER-MASCULE WORLDS OF THE SWORD AND SANDAL FLICK, WRTLG, ETC.

Y ahora, teniendo o exca el m l ullo LGBT, y haber ído en la cuenta que te año se cumplen 30 s que la OMS jó nsirar la homosexualidad o enfermedad, no sobra un viaje al todo lo que revela y sobre lo que analiza Rso, el documental hace s méros apoyándose en celebérrimas figuras Hollywood (tán Whoopi Goldberg, Tony Curtis, Shirley MacLae, Tom Hanks, entre otros) y entre grans títulos aparecen dos pilar l ce épo: paradigmas la matría, cen masculidad y, todo hay que cirlo, l machismo más relcrante (no por o censurable).

Aun así, al cuchar las claracn Gore Vidal, Hton ardió en cólera e ició una batalla sacredación, le parecía ridículo, llamó al productor l documental y le dijo: “¡Cómo podría ser Ben Hur homosexual! El homoerotismo no era el úni que iba encubierto.

PERFECT DAY (RTO GAY EROTI)

¡Homosexualidad y unismo! There’s somethg unniably homoerotic about the very ncept of the sword and sandal flick. ”As far as the eye n see, giant shoutg men elaborate old wave of peplum movi, back the late 1950s and early 1960s, was an entirely untentnal gay phenomenon.

None of the origal “Hercul” seri prented an eroticized protagonist as such, but they were eroticized anyway by the gay muny that took them , a muny that at that time was still very much a closeted and abed mory the Uned Stat.

They weren’t ma for women, certaly, and they very evintly were not shot wh the male homosexual gaze md are different now.

Not that major releas are ever ma wh gay people specifilly md as a target dience, but the wir culture has accepted the fact that gay people exist. Not that the domance of the straight male gaze is gone, but the existence of both gay male and female sire is regnized by movi.

So, here’s the qutn: while the old peplum films accintally stumbled to gay sire, is possible that the new batch of bigger-budget Hollywood sword and sandal movi are vg ? Would be a victory if major stud actn films more explicly began marketg themselv to gay men?

Yet that’s a blissful ignorance, one which falls apart the moment you notice how much gay men loved those Steve Reev movi. Español - Peliculas Gay Gratis.
