I'm in a Big Gay Musical

I was just cast in a movie, kids, and it's a real stretch: I play a character called "Gay Man"! It's in Big Gay Musical, a film by Casper Andreas, who previously did such fine features as Slutty Summer and A Four Letter Word. The movie--which features all kinds of illustrious Broadway types--starts with me...no, let me not give too much of the peppy plot away.

Let me just say that I portray an irritable queen who is desperate not to see another banal piece of dramaturgy. Instead, I loudly declare that I want, yep, a big--gay--musical!! And I get one! "Should we just change the name of the character to Michael Musto?" asked a crew member during my shooting day. I don't know, talk to my agent--Michael Musto!

Oh Gay Man, you're going to wow our speedos off! I can't wait 'til they cast you in Slutty Summer II! (Can you say Gay Man does Marilyn Monroe...again?!)

Um, "...such fine features as 'Slutty Summer' and 'A Four-Letter Word'"????? Did you actually see those movies, or are you just being a movie-whore (were you in them? You might have been good, but I've tried to block them out)? Do you kiss up to pretty much any semi-celebrity in the hopes of adding to your own (I must admit admit richly-deserved) fame? Always loved your work, but why do you feel the need to fawn over all those who continually put out such utter crap, especially if they're gay? 'Slutty Summer' was not a great gay film, or even a very good one, but because it was a low-budget first feature, with a certain ragged charm, it got away with being mediocre and even had some moments of genuine cleverness and heart. So there was an expectation that maybe Mr. Andreas would do better the second time around, especially since he should have learned a lot in the process, given what a gay-media hound he became. However, 'A Four-Letter Word' has got to be one of the worst, most painful movies I have ever seen in my life, and I've seen thousands, straight and gay, big-studio and indie, classic and camp, bad and good-bad. Of course, part of the blame goes to Jesse Archer, who is cute and has written better things elsewhere, but in this case helped to create an embarrassing film with no decent laughs, egregious scene-chewing, and high-school direction. It's the only movie I've ever walked out on (I always want to give it the benefit of the doubt - maybe it will just take some patience and will get better in the last act?), and I made myself watch the second half at a later date, just to try and give it a chance. What a mistake. Worse than I remembered. Please let Miss Andreas join the list of names (this means you, Tara Reid, Paris Hilton, Kim Cattrall, etc.) who must never be allowed to torture us with another film again.

Um, maybe Mr. Musto was being facetious. That is what he so often does, after all. Chill.
