On Brokeback Ennis could live a hassle-free life, before he had an inquiring wife.

You sure got a lot of mileage out of slicing, dicing and splicing.

The Oscar for Best 'Brokeback' Parody Goes to...

From 'Top Gun' to 'SpongeBob,' Trailer Parodies Put Buddy Movies Through the 'Brokeback' Blender

On the Internet, computer nerds, time travelers, "Top Gun" pilots and SpongeBob himself have all had that "I wish I knew how to quit you!" feeling.

=reply= Sandy
I sure did!

When young Alma lisped, "Bring me a fish"
Ennis gave her a hug and a squish,
Kissed his wife as she worried, then out the door hurried
To grant Jack's impetuous wish.

As she burst upon the scene, Jack seemed mildly interested in Lureen, and found himself in the backseat of the car with the rodeo queen.

"On the Internet, computer nerds, time travelers, 'Top Gun' pilots and SpongeBob himself have all had that 'I wish I knew how to quit you!' feeling. The Oscar-nominated kissing-cowboy saga 'Brokeback Mountain' has provided comedic grist for some of the sharpest wits on the Web, where savvy amateur editors have created dozens of 'mashups' and parodies of the film's trailer by slicing, dicing, and splicing clips from other popular buddy films."

"Some critics have accused the filmmakers of creating one-dimensional women characters who torment their husbands rather than understanding or caring for them. This is simply an unfortunate misunderstanding. Alma, for instance, is devoted to Ennis until she accidentally discovers that her husband is having an affair with Jack. Betrayed, she keeps his secret in silence, continues to try to win him, and only when she fails does she leave him. Michelle Williams' performance is truly top-notch and deserves consideration from the critics and nabobs of Hollywood awards."

"A one shot thing" was what they called their pact, which later that night they had to retract.

Jack and Ennis squared off at the lake, their anger rumbling, emotions jumbling, confidence crumbling and reconciliation fumbling.

Like vast clouds of steam from thermal springs in winter the years of things unsaid and now unsayable -- admissions, declarations, shames, guilts, fears -- rose around them.
