I'm having a shite time atm, went to pictures to see Rocketman yesterday and found the sex scene between Taron Egerton and Richard Madden the hottest thing I've ever seen. Seriously, if you're a menopausal old hound looking for a boost in the fanjo, go and watch this on a loop.

The term. 'menopausal old hound looking for a boost in the fanjo', is going to keep me smiling for the rest of the week Grin Grin

Taron really doesn't look his best in this film though! He's cute and geeky but not very "hot"

M/M Romance is now a very big sub-genre, Harlequin are now publishing a range. Slash (which is pairing up male couples on mainstream shows as in Kirk/Spock) is enormously popular.

It's a bit controversial - some gay men think its basically objectifying their sexuality - similar to straight men getting off on lesbian sex.

You really see the fragmentation of culture here - a massive sub-culture basically unknown to the mainstream.

If you want to know whether it's for you try from 1:11 here - shirtless guy is very hot!

Let's be honest: we could all be doing with a boost in the fanjo!

It did nothing for me either. It was a bit cringe and certainly not graphic.

However I was surprised the sex scene showed so little and was so brief after the way it had been discussed in interviews.

Me too. Given the hype I was expecting something much more explicit. If it had been a hetero sex scene I think it would have barely registered a weak PG. It seems the mere fact of gayness is still enough to make something shocking.

It did nothing for me either, in fact I barely noticed it. Didn’t find Elton attractive either, although he is slightly better looking than the real Elton Grin his partner/ manager just looked like a young Neil Diamond, but it was the 70’s.
The actor playing Bernie Taupin on the other hand.......Mmmm

Great film though, even better than the recent Queen one imo.

@OldAndWornOut

The one I just looked at on YT (purely for research of course) was edited of the ‘best bits’ 🤬

Yes watching two men is hot totally because it's safe. Chinny reckon.

It's exactly the same as het men loving watching two hot women. And I totally get the gay objections to both. still hot though.

I was taken aback by the hugh jackman faking an orgasm scene in the eddie the eagle film. That was quite unexpected in a gentle comedy film and definitely a fanjo boost Blush

I just texted DH asking him if he wanted to go and see "Rocketnan" with me this weekend. That sounds like a very different film!

I really enjoyed the film but not keen on that scene and wanted it to end.

I've got to admit the tentsex in Brokeback mostly makes me wince, involving as it does absolutely no lube or prep.

Thanks for the tip about this, though. I too am a slash lover 4 lyfe. Grin

I thought it was a bit bland; I must have seen the same clip, also purely for research purposes. Grin

Hi @pgqio

You'll be pleased to know that your boosted fanjo is now going viral on twitter and being recommended as advertising slogan for the film Grin

Congratulations, pgqio. A fine achievement Grin

I love the "menopausal old hound" bit even better than the "boost in the fanjo", although I can see why the latter would make a better poster strapline.

I went to see Dorian Gray with both my mum and my nan when I was in my late teens. Did not expect the orgy scene.

Brokeback Mountain isn't sexy at all. NO LUBE.

I went to see it with my DH and 12yo DD, as I couldn't see a rating listed. Poor girl kept sticking her head between her knees!!

I did involuntarily exclaim "Wow" at that sex scene and made my neighbour look over 😂

Taron Egerton is one of the few actors I've seen whose been able to show pure lust towards another man just in his expression (see trailer).

Brilliant film but preferred Bohemian Rhapsody (which also has John Reid played by another actor).

I'm surprised she got in Occidental we had a heck of a problem and the dc are 15 & 17 - (note to self keep a copy of passports on your phone in future)

Comefromaway we saw it at a small independent cinema and she's also taller than some of my friends! I'd like her to stick to age appropriate films though - it was a bit too much.
