Love, Simon

[LOVE 4,465]

kjdffhskhg okay so i saw love simon yesterday with my best friend, and we ran into our other two friends who were on a date-- so they sat in the row behind us

and i havent seen a romcom in a while so it was really refreshing to not see a "serious" "artsy" movie in theaters and just laugh, and this movie has some really golden funny moments.

the plot was really solid too, it warmed my heart to watch an lgbt movie that had a happy ending with no taboos in it (sorry CMBYN)

 

i wasnt crying until the takeaway moment at the end and i started UGLY SOBBING in that theater, but all of my friends were too 

it was like having my second bisexual awakening honestly and i was so proud of our community and of my friends and our coming out journeys and i just had to release those happy tears

 

definitely made me think at the end "this is one of those teen movies i'll show my kids someday"

and i was at peace with that

 

have any of you gays seen it yet?? it's worth it tbh, i'd say it lived up to the hype

 

based on the novel Simon vs. The Homosapiens Agenda

I love the book and the movie with all of my heart! I saw the movie yesterday with my mom and we both loved it! It’s such a beautiful story with great characters!

Also props for the racial diversity and casting actual queer actors in some of the roles

I was in this movie!! I had the most wonderful time shooting it, it’s one of my most favourite movies I’ve done. I actually haven’t had the chance to see it yet (I’m going this weekend with a friend) but I filmed multiple scenes & I know I’m really featured in the Ferris wheel scene towards the end. I was wearing this in that scene if you want to look out for me!


Part of the scene I’m speaking about has a group shot in the trailer you can see me in at 2:06, all the way towards the left with my hands over my heart -

 

I’m so happy to see so much love for this movie as not only did I have the most incredible time filming it, but I think the story is sooooo important to be shown x

OMG you are actually a legend :defeated: :wowcry: :kiss3:

I saw it with some friends and we were all in tears by the end. Probably because it hit too close home. My friend comes from a religious family and she's scared about coming out. We all really liked the film and it was a fun night overall.

@@Elle congrats, you're a movie star

[SparkleJumpropeNoose 8,750]

im seeing it this weekend!!! i've been waiting for some good gay content that isnt the vile CMBYN

[mrborntolose 9,943]

i was crying so hard when i saw this because it’s all so real to me. very great film. instant classic<3

[salvatore 21,769]

im js if y'all can get that ugly ass cmbyn to 30 somethin pages y'all can get this one to the same and more

[AKASAKA SAWAYAMA 7,882]

call me by your name is amazing, accept this fact. deal with it

[abombnd 6,440]

I kinda wanna watch it but I would go alone and that would be weird. idk if it's even screening in North Dakota : /

[Solar Fields 4,163]

Love, Simon is great because

1) Racial diversity

2) Some of the actors are queer in real life

3) It’s funny and not trying to be artsy which makes it more accessible and relatable for more people

 

Edited because I was being messy

[AKASAKA SAWAYAMA 7,882]

Don’t get me wrong CMBYN is good but I prefer Love, Simon because

1) More racial diversity

2) Some of the actors are actually queer

3) Love, Simon is funny and isn’t as artsy which makes it more accessible and relatable for more people

whatever but i agree with the 3rd

i don't see the reason for comparing these movies when they're not even thematically about the same thing 

 

anyway i'll probably watch this some time next week.

How do i block this thread so i don't have to see it pop up on the homepage?

[HunterSThompson 4,646]

What we are NOT going to do is pit two LGBTQ+ movies against each other 

 

Both are amazing LGBTQ+ movies that expose different facets of the gay experience. Both deserve love and respect

CMBYN Prettier Sister! CMBYN was overrated AF. It was a good film though, just not as good as this one! A fave!
