Line 154:
* ''[[Die Another Day]]'', and it wasn't just the [[Shipping Goggles]]--there's fic out there. Villains on the whole don't get... [[Unholy Matrimony|close]] with one another. It cuts down on the villainy factor.
** [[James Bond (film)|James Bond]] already did the foe-on-foe-yay bit with Mister Wint and Mister Kidd in ''[[Diamonds Are Forever]]''.
** Likewise in ''[[GoldeneyeGoldenEye (film)|GoldenEye]]'' when Alec is trying to seduce Natalia on the train, and he says "James and I shared everything...''Absolutely everything...''"?
* [[Lampshade Hanging|Lampshaded]], like a lot of things, in ''[[Dirty Work]]'':
{{quote|'''Mitch:''' Okay, you go back to doing something vaguely homoerotic!}}
Line 227:
** And Abe/Krauss.
* Tiffany and Kirsty in ''[[Hellraiser]]'' also seemed to be a [[Ho Yay|bit more then friends]].
* ''[[Hercules (Disney1997 film)||Hercules]]'' features Pain and Panic. Nude S&M demons with a somewhat homoerotic relationship.
* ''[[High School Musical]] 2'': The school's [[Ambiguously Gay]] theater king is challenged to a baseball game by the school's [[Jerk Jock|Jock]] [[Jerk with a Heart of Gold|With A Heart Of Gold]]. They sing a song in which said jock proclaims loudly about how macho he is, and the line "show you how I swing" is sung. The jock asks "I'm not saying I'm going do it it, but ''if'' I did, what would have me do?", the other one smirks to himself, and the scene ends. The next time they appear, they're ''[[Sexy Shirt Switch|wearing each other's clothes]]''. And yes, this was shown on the Disney Channel.
** Also note that in the shirt switch scene, they appear to be eating hot dogs.
Line 323:
** I recall reading an article, I think in ''Vanity Fair'', that mentioned that Voight and Hoffman asked Schlesinger if their characters were "fags." Apparently the answer was yes.
*** Quite the contrary. As an openly gay director, Schlesinger stated that part of his intention with Midnight Cowboy was to show that two men could be friends without being homoerotic. This is in addition to the various interpretations of Joe being a closet-case. Though the movie has plenty of hoyay, Rizzo and Joe are specifically formed against that.
* In ''[[Mission: Impossible]]: Ghost Protocol'', Ethan very soulfully and intensely looking at Brandt during a conversation about secrets: "You tell me yours, and I'll tell you mine." The fact that [[Tom Cruise]] is [[Top Gun|no]] [[Interview with the Vampire|stranger]] to Ho Yay...
{{quote|'''Brandt:''' Next time, ''I'' get to seduce the rich guy.}}
** It's not just Ethan that he has subtext with. There's this slashtastic quote directed at Benji after he asked why his codename is Pluto.
Line 384:
* [[The Paper Chase (film)|''The Paper Chase'']]: Ford's "Wanna get drunk?" invitation to Hart may be ambiguous, but the latent acrimony between Bell and O'Connor reeks of a failed affair.
* ''[[Paul]]'': Graeme and Clive.
* How about ''[[Pee Wee-wee's Big Adventure]]'' for some examples of this in a kids' movie? The character of Mickey (who, let's not forget, is an ex-con and so has spent an AWFUL LOT of time in an all-male environment) rather pointedly tells Pee-Wee, "I like you, kid. I like you a LOT." And the bikers in the bar when they gleefully threaten to tattoo Pee-Wee's body before they kill him...
* The [[Peter Pan (film)|2003 version]] of [[Peter Pan]] did make some viewers leave the theater with some rather obfuscating pictures involving Hook and Peter in their head.
* ''[[Pineapple Express]]'' is full of three-way ho yay between Dale, Saul and Red.
