In response to Jack's thought that he might get shot by Lureen or Randall for having a "thing" with Lashawn, Ennis joshingly replied that he probably deserved it.

After all than kissing and jouncing, a "starving" Jack leaned against his pickup, waiting for Ennis to pack up and go fishing.

"M" is masterpiece

Brokeback Mountain is a masterpiece of the short story genre, and the movie is a masterpiece of cinema.

OMT's (Old Man Twist's) narrow-mindedness knew no limits.

"O" is objectively
« Reply #9047 on: November 30, 2006, 05:44:24 pm »
We can objectively say that Brokeback captured the popular imagination more than Crash did. Parodies abounded. The word 'brokeback' became immediate slang on the lips of every radio d.j. It was a cultural touchstone. But that doesn't automatically make it Best Picture. In 2000, Fight Club wasn't even nominated.

"Q" is quakiness

There was a quakiness to Ennis's voice when he was on the phone with Lureen.
