30 of the Gayest Straight Movies Ever Made According to Lifehacker

"Queer movies are still mostly a trickle at the box office. 'Bros' was marketed as the first mainstream gay romantic comedy ever released by a major studio. Some movies have made waves, but still represent only a tiny fraction of mainstream releases: even while the usual suspects will scream about how it's impossible to find any straight-centered entertainment these days. LGBTQ representation in the modern blockbuster era is generally limited to half-hearted queer-bating, background smooches between minor characters, or cautious, sexless relationships. Hollywood has been making gay movies since the advent of the form - the filmmakers sneaking in themes that would go over the heads of the censors but land with the right audiences, or arising as unintended subtext. Sometimes even the straightest movies are gay as hell—some of the following movies have a definable context that makes queer readings plausible. Others are just really gay, without meaning to be." - lifehacker.com
