That's lovely, Chris.  I love that Brokeback Mountain has given my husband and I a deeper understanding of each other and has made our marriage stronger.

I love Brokeback Mountain because it has managed to bring so many diverse individuals from all over the world onto this forum. 
It has such a universal appeal that it crosses over our different backgrounds, cultures, languages and religions.
It is truly an epic movie!  :)

And I love that Brokeback is a movie you can think and/or talk about practically every waking hour for MONTHS ON END ... and still remain fascinated by it!

I love that Brokeback Mountain the film, the short-story, the screenplay, and months of analysis by fans and critics alike, never falters and always holds true to the very real: Jack and Ennis.

I love bbm because after countless viewings and all these hours on message boards, the film doesn't lose it's impact (or in fact only becomes more powerful).

I love  Brokeback'a ability to sustain, to influence, and yet to entertain so many people, whether they are on their first viewing (welcome newbies), the initiated, and those who continued to exude such passion for everything BBM in spite of (or maybe because of) uncountable viewing of this masterpiece. (someone at work, yesterday asked me what I used to do with my time before I "discoved" BBM!)
