Billy Eichner

For some time, I was seeing bus stop adverts all over San Francisco including one mere steps from my building for the movie "Bros". That artwork and title; by sight - made me think it was a mid 2000's circa "Seth Rogan" type of comedy about obnoxious young guys doing what they do in obnoxious comedies. I dunno - I think the marketing killed the film. The print ad seemed more playful in that young straight-guy humor kinda way - like when Harry Styles squeezed his One Direction bandmate's package (that GIF is somewhere on this board, lol).
Anyway, as a seasoned gay film viewer (sans social media, so maybe I'm old and don't get it), even I managed to overlook a potentially fun film because the adverts just didn't seem to do the actual film justice.

Oh, the US marketing for the movie was a disaster. They seem to have learned from their mistakes and come up with a better approach by the time it went overseas, but I don't think there was enough of an audience in Europe and Australia to boost ticket sales that much.

I just got around to seeing Bros.,it was great! People were being unduly mean to Billy I hope he doesn't take the low box office personally. View attachment 87083451View attachment 87083461
“Unduly mean”
The guy’s the worst. Calls you homophobic for jot watching the movie. Calls you a “traitor” if you don’t agree with him politically.

he’s truly awful

Is the guy that keeps showing up in his Instagram story his boyfriend?
 
What is he doing right now? Why is he having such a long vacation and being silent.

I want to see difficult people 4 on apple tv :worried:

He is very high-end, upper-class, sad and lonely type now. Apple should hire him
