Comment on Whoever wrote this headline has never encountered a passenger train before in their lives

It’s like how Bros kept trying to imply it was the first gay movie, or even first gay romcom, but it was the first gay romcom that was created and released by a major studio who’s initial release was a “wide” release in more than one country.

Torch Song Trilogy (1988)? The Birdcage (1996)? I don’t know about “more than one country”, but they were major studio movies with wide releases.
New Line isn’t one of the “major studios”, so Torch Song is out, and I’m not sure that Birdcage is a romcom.
Maurice, Trick, and The Broken Heart’s Club, are also older and much better than bros, but not major studio releases.
But all of these movies are watchable, so they’re better than Bros.
The Birdcage is definitely a romcom. Two for one, in fact!
Ok I know when people say gay like that they mean gay male, but D.E.B.S. is one of the greatest queer movies ever made and is a romcom between two women. But it like many other classic queer movies wasn’t a major studio or anything

Well then I would argue that that’s some Giga Bullshit on their part.
