Line 3:
Examples of [[Foe Yay]] in [[Film]].
----
Line 22:
** Not to mention that Le Chiffre didn't seem particularly bothered about the thug threatening to chop off his girlfriend's hand. Of course, that was probably supposed to be a [[Kick the Dog]] moment for Le Chiffre rather than a statement on his sexuality.
** It's likely his indifference was because the girl was actually a [[Mook]] posing as his girlfriend. Of course, that in itself [[The Beard|implies something]].
** Craig's Bond is not the first to have [[Foe Yay]] with the villain -- there was an amount of homoeroticism between Bond and {{spoiler|Alec}} in ''[[
{{quote|'''{{spoiler|Alec}}:''' "James and I used to share everything...''absolutely everything''"}}
* ''[[National Treasure]]'' fandom has a ''lot'' of Ben/Ian. Gag.
Line 41:
*** Add in the fact that Johnny Depp has stated that Jack is Bi...
** And then there's Davy Jones, who leaves Jack feeling "sullied and unusual" after basically molesting the Black Spot off his hand.
** Actually, can we just say anyone who comes in contact with Jack Sparrow?
** Barbossa and Elizabeth in the first film.
** In At World's End, Elizabeth is taken to Captain Sao Feng's chambers where they talk for a bit before he plants a [[Forceful Kiss|violent kiss]] on her. (An explosion soon interrupts him.)
Line 49:
* Basically the plot of ''[[D.E.B.S.]]'', which is centred around a lesbian love story between one of a team of [[Charlie's Angels]]-type heroines and the [[Big Bad]]. In fact the short film on which it is based has the villain having to think up all these nefarious plans simply so the two of them can get together for some quick sex without attracting suspicion.
* ''[[Star Wars]]'': Pre-''Empire Strikes Back'', you could have made arguments for Vader/Luke... then it got [[Squick|Squicky]]. Also: Jabba/Han (especially in the Special Edition), Jabba/Leia ([[Victim Falls For Rapist|considered fanon]] [[Rape as Drama|verging-on-canon]] by certain segments of the fandom), Palpatine/Luke...okay, I'm starting to [[Squick]] myself...
** Speaking of Palpatine, he was getting pretty cozy with Anakin while trying to bring him to the dark side.
*** In the [[Star Wars Expanded Universe]], we actually see a naked Palpatine fighting Luke.
** Anakin and Obi-Wan arguably get ''more'' slashy after Anakin [[Jumping Off the Slippery Slope|jumps off the slippery slope]]. Obi-Wan's "I loved you" certainly helps.
Line 66:
* There are ''[[Rocky Horror Picture Show]]'' fanfics that pair up Riff Raff with Dr. Frank N Furter. This is possibly due to when Frank whips Riff... S&M anyone? Or due to this line (which seems to indicate that Riff was jealous of Frank):
{{quote|'''Riff Raff'': They didn't like me. [[This Is Sparta|HE NEVER LIKED ME!]]}}
** Of course, considering the whole nature of ''Rocky Horror'', there's also fanfics that pair Brad/Frank, Janet/Frank, Magenta/Frank, or pretty much anyone with Frank considering he's the antagonist of the film.
*** And has, according to various bits of dialogue and action, already paired ''himself'' with most of the major cast members at one time or another.
* In the live-action He-Man movie ''Masters of the Universe'', Skeletor takes He-Man as his "slave" by threatening his friends. He strips him to even less clothing, then has him tortured with a sort of laser-like whip while watching with almost aroused glee. To make it worse, it actually looks like He-Man is ''leaning his butt into the whip as if he enjoys it''.
* There is a strong albeit disturbed vibe from Hannibal Lector towards Will Graham in ''[[Red Dragon]]''.
{{quote|''Clever boy. I think I'll eat you heart.''}}
* At one point in the movie, Khan uses an, ahem, interesting ''[[Moby Dick]]'' quote to describe his feelings towards Kirk in ''[[Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan|Star Trek II the Wrath of Khan]]'':
Line 77:
* ''[[Spartacus]]'' has so much [[Ho Yay]] between Spartacus and Antoninus, along with Crassus and Antoninus, but [[Foe Yay]] was shown between Crassus and Spartacus.
* Jason Statham got no end of ribbing from the film crew on the second [[The Transporter]] movie for the "[[Kiss of Life]]" he performs on a thug in order to survive crashing into deep water. There's also that fight scene of him fending off a ton of [[Mooks]] shirtless and covered in motor oil...
* Arrow to Rudolph from ''[[Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer]]'' [[The Movie]]. A common [[Alternate Character Interpretation]] is that he was trying to break up Zoey and Rudolph because of his [[Ho Yay|love]] for Rudolph.
* Many Narnia fans pointed out the unintentional foeyay between Caspian and High King Peter.
** The White Witch and Edmund in the first film.
Line 100:
** Also (in a way, since it's just personal hatred rather than actually being enemies) Snape/Harry. Snape does like invading Harry's personal space when he attempts to discipline him, and in ''Order of the Phoenix'' he drags him by the hand down to the dungeons and then spends several scenes trying to penetrate Harry{{spoiler|'s mind}}... it doesn't help that Alan Rickman's voice is the sexiest thing in existence.
** [[Les Yay|Bellatrix pinning Hermione to the floor]] when torturing her during their "girl talk".
** Bellatrix grabbing Harry by the hair and pulling his face close next to hers after his face got hit by a spell from Hermione. Bellatrix/Harry is also a popular pairing in fanfiction.
** Scabior, the head Snatcher in Deathly Hallows to Hermione. After he captures Hermione, he calls her "My lovely" and sniffs her hair.
** Lets not forget Lucius/Harry. (that part in the second movie where he pulls Harry close to him after taking his hand to look at his scar). "Your scar is legend."
Line 109:
* Ching and Ling in the Hong Kong [[Organ Theft]] thriller ''[[Koma]]''.
{{quote|"No one can take your kidney... but me."}}
* Between approximately everyone and Louis in [[Interview with the Vampire]].
* [[Merry Christmas, Mr. Lawrence]]: Major Jack Celliers (played by [[David Bowie]]) and Captain Yonoi (played by Japanese rock star Ryuichi Sakamoto). The [[Foe Yay]] is entirely intended - Celliers has had "no romantic interludes of any real importance" and Yonoi watches him sleep when he's in solitary confinement.
* The Wicked Witch and Dorothy in ''[[The Wizard of Oz (film)|The Wizard of Oz]]''.
* ''[[The Prestige]]''. Borden and Angier spend the entire movie being obsessed with each other, at the sacrifice of their signifigant others.
* In the remake of [[The Taking of Pelham One Two Three]], Ryder has a ''ridiculous'' amount of one-sided Foe Yay with Garber. He demands to speak only with Garber for the whole movie and keeps getting more and more obsessed with Garber's life. Ryder spills his guts to Garber over and over and even admits {{spoiler|in his death scene}} that Garber is his hero. It culminates in this hilariously out-of-nowhere line:
{{quote|'''[[Meaningful Name|Ryder]]''': He sounds sexy. He would've been my bitch in prison!}}
* ''[[Megamind]]'' is absolutely ''drowning'' in this.
Line 121:
** Colossus: "In time you will come to regard me not only with respect and awe, but with love."
** Dr. Forbin: "Never!"
** After this comes more zooming in. . . and then still more zooming in on Forbin.
* The 1964 film "Becket" starring Richard Burton and Peter O'Toole is a textbook example. [[Turbulent Priest|Thomas Becket]] and [[Royal Brat|King Henry II of England]] are the best of friends...until Henry gets the [[Sarcasm Mode|bright idea]] to make Becket the Archbishop of Canterbury, which means Becket is now conscience-bound to oppose his king. As a result of their estrangement, Henry becomes unhinged and ultimately [[Moral Event Horizon|has Becket murdered]].
{{quote|'''Henry (to Becket):''' I would have gone to war with all of England's might behind me, and even against England's interests, to defend you, Thomas. I would have given away my life, laughingly, for you. Only I loved you, and you didn't love me. That's the difference.
Line 155:
** [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3vb9fyyzxI4 I Love You Dr. Zaius!]
* ''[[Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby]]'': Reeks of it between Ricky and Girard. They even make out in the end.
* ''[[Gilda]]'': In this troper's opinion, Johnny Farrell and Ballin Mundson. They even have a toast to a partnership ''without women'' with Ballin Mundson's [[Anvilicious|cane]] right between them.
* Elle in [[Kill Bill]] towards the Bride. She hates the Bride, but also feels a deep sense of respect for her and is enraged when she is apparently killed in an ignominious and disgraceful manner by Budd.
** There is also her relationship with Bill who was a former lover. They still obviously have a lot of attraction toward one another and don't even hide it while trying to kill one another.
Line 162:
