Good Morning, World


The 2020 version of The Boys in the Band is out on Netflix today -- I reviewed it with scant enthusiasm yesterday, but I'm sure mileages will vary and some of you might like it -- it's gotten plenty of good reviews! Anyway I'm not here to talk quality -- I'm here to talk about Matthew Bomer getting naked in it. (Admittedly its own kind of quality!) When I watched the movie over the weekend I tweeted:

... because you quite plainly see some of Matthew Bomer's dick as he gets out of the shower. Anyway it's a quick flash and the moment's dark and distant (although zooming in and lightening it thanks to the wonders of technology gives the moment some more oomph, as you'll see below) but I was excited! That was sure more than I ever thought I'd see of Matt Bomer! But then that tweet traveled around and some expectations got... bigger than they maybe should have? I don't know, it's not my job to police y'all's imaginations, and I have review embargoes that limit what I can say. 

Of course this morning, after the movie's been online for 12 hours, I'm seeing some people furious that we didn't get more explicit nudity, and... best of luck with that, I guess? That seems an exhausting way to be, for me. I'm not picky or a nitpicker when it comes to this stuff, measuring light-scales and on-screen inches; you've got people saying we're just seeing a cock-sock? I don't know -- I am just always happy for whatever nudity we get. I am excitable! Don't kill that within me, please.

I always to a T regret when I get involved in these conversations -- it's like James Ivory screeching about Call Me By Your Name's dicklessness -- with a movie that sexy who the fuck is even keeping track of that? I'm sorry you need full penetration to get off but Matt Bomer doesn't owe anybody anything; I'm going to enjoy all we get and then live my life. I think we all learned a valuable lesson: just don't listen to me. Or how about I put it this way: just be grateful we're talking about the shaft of Matt Bomer's Penis this morning and not last night's godforsaken nightmare of a debate. I got plenty to say about that! On that note hit the jump for several more gifs...





(Looks like dick to me!)

Doing the best work on the internet. Thank you for spending so much time with this scene. :)

Peggy Sue said...

For the love or Aaron Taylor-Johnson, this is not the frontal your promised!

The Bad-Ass Penguin said...

Peggy Sue, I cosign that sentiment!

Jason Adams said...

I'd love for you to point me in the direction of that promise, Peggy Sue! Pretty sure I said "a certain something is about to break the internet" as seen right here in this post and y'all assumed from there that Matt Bomer was going to be flopping his balls on your collective chins

The Bad-Ass Penguin said...

Jason, if it catches your attention enough to tweet, I expect my chin to get ball-full! ;-) Still love you to death!

ugh he is so beautiful it hurts

Mike Johnson said...

If a gorgeous shadowy semi leak from Captain America can break the internet, Matt Bomer's love pillows can too. Not every actor has to be Ewan "look at my big, beautiful dick" McGregor. Also, totally agree that "CMBYN " didn't need graphic scenes of Armie actually penetrating Timmy to be sexy. The film is a love poem, not porn.

Could you also post gifs from the bathhouse sex scene, Matt is so hot and dom in that! thank you.

When is he going to film a scene making out with Henry Cavill?

Unlike Aaron Taylor-Johnson - his is real.

Unlike Chris Evans - his is nice looking.

I’d like to thank you for this! And as an expert on penises, I’d be happy to testify under oath in a court of law to the effect that we do indeed see Matt Bomer’s penis in this scene. So there!
