Our Staff Picks column is a new addition that takes you back to a time when video stores reigned supreme and the "Staff Picks" section was the place to find out what films were worthy of one's time. Of course, our version has a decidedly nude angle, as we suss out which films from a certain genre with great nudity. This week: gay comedies!
It's summertime! It's Pride! There is no need to be serious. All we need to do is laugh and spend time in the sun. So let's do that by checking out these fun, flirty picks for gay comedies that you need to see. Check out the sexy gay scenes that will also make you laugh:
Priscilla Queen of the Desert
In 1994, we all got a heaping helping of hilarious drag queens with this Australian film about two drag queens and their trans friend who get jobs in a cabaret in a small Australian desert resort. This Oscar-winning film is fun, celebratory, and hilarious! It also helps that Guy Pearce shows off his pearcing beauty in this movie. He, Hugo Weaving, and Terence Stamp are standouts in the movie that features some booty.
Edge of Seventeen
Ready to laugh at the hottest guys trying to cope with the sexuality in 1980s high school? I have good news for you then about the 1999 film Edge of Seventeen. This indie comedy focuses on Chris Stafford as a teenager trying to figure out his sexuality on the last day of school in 1984. He has a girlfriend, but he becomes very interested in Andersen Gabrych...and I get it. I mean...don't you?
Chris and Andersen go at it a couple of times and Andersen shows off his terrific ass. There are even well-lit closeups of his hairy legs and booty! To make it all better, Andersen's character's name is Rod. We never see his rod, but it is enough of a tease for me that I found myself begging for it with each makeout scene that these two hotties had.
Eating Out
Q. Brocka directed this R-rated dramedy that will lead you laughing and lusting over these hunks. A man named Caleb learns that a lot of hot straight women tend to be attracted to gay men (cause gay men are hot, duh), so Caleb decides to essentially queer up his life. He tries to expand his sexual horizons to see if he can impress a straight woman who likes gay men. Oh, honey, everyone in this movie has problems!
While Caleb, played by Scott Lunsford, tries to impress this girl he winds up becoming super impressed by Ryan Carnes. We are also impressed by Ryan Carnes who takes off his pants and shows off his penis. He is one handsome hottie! Is he on the menu? Because I want to eat out!
Fire Island
We've been talking about Fire Island all week. Eveyrone has! It's a great movie with a lot of laughs that celebrates hot gay actors who are the next It Boys in Hollywood. Written by Joel Kim Booster, the films star him and Bowen Yang as besties who are helping each other find sex and love on Fire Island and look hot doing it.
Their friends are the real scene stealers! Tomas Matos, in particular, delivers some of the movie's most iconic moments (like when the sun sets and he tells the sun 'I'm proud of you, girl' - I was fully dead). He also looks SUPER sexy and shows off his twerk skills while wearing a stripper thong. Strip the night away, Tomas! Make us proud!
The dolls are sexy and hilarious in this movie and I love this scene that shows Zane Phillips' ass and some extras who are working hard in the background to make us hard.
