Hi Lex,

Before I go to the main issue I want to raise with this comment, let me say first that I am really appreciative of Queeriosity with its drive and campaign in producing pink films, albeit, mostly direct to video and of the short film genre.

Now to the main point. I know that you have explained this to me already before and I do understand what you said about the challenges that film makers (both straight and gay) have with the MTRCB.

Now having said that and my earlier commendation to Queeriosity, I do have a contradicting comment for them. The films that they produce, sorry to say, I have to be frank with my comment, but they stink. I know that they are not after a film academy nomination, whether local or foreign. I know that they have budgetary constraints.

But really, have you seen the videos that they have produced? To be fair, why don't you make an informal poll from your readers on what their thoughts are as far as the videos of Queeriosity is concerned?

If they are only after the prurient interest of the gay viewers, I cannot say that the videos were able to do it. Are they after eliciting deep thoughts from the gay viewers on their presentation of gay themed videos? Again, I don't see it happening.

I am not trying to be bitchy about the matter but sadly, for someone who is in the forefront of promoting for the rights of gay people plus a film writer too, I am hoping that you will also understand where I am coming from with this comment.

Thank you for the space as usual.

Regards,

Alex

Alex, I'm with you on this. I watched this film yesterday and I was rolling my eyes to no end because everything in the film is rubbish. The character of the supposedly rich guy is just ridiculous. Acting is hideous. Why can't they make a sensible film?
