Welcome to Brokeback Halloween!

We all bemoan that Ennis and Jack probably never were able to spend holidays like Christmas or Thanksgiving together. But did you know that they spent Halloween together? Yup, they did. Ang Lee chose not to show it to us, but I got hold of some top secret material, and I know some of you have more of it.

We want to see it!

This is our mixed Halloween thread for socializing and being creative! Tell us a Jack and Ennis Halloween joke, make a Halloween/BBM photoshop creation, think of new captions for screenshots of the movie! Mix Brokeback Mountain with Halloween in any way you can think of and share it here with us!

All contributers will be rewarded. Since our BetterMost Halloween party will last the whole weekend, there's plenty of time to think of something. Don't be afraid if you're not a photoshop magican, simple manipulations will do (and BTW, that's all I'm capable of, too). And if you have no picture editing skills at all, take a regular screenshot from the movie and write some Halloween-ish caption for it. Here's the best source for BBM screenshots: stripedwall.com (just click on the link).

You can also think of some Halloween dialog between LD and Fayette, Old Man Twist and the ghosts of past, present and future Halloween or whatever comes to your mind.

Contributions should preferably have a BBM connection as well as being Halloween specific, but hey, it's all for fun and nobody is strict with rules!

Don't forget to comment on other peoples contributions, collect your candy and simply say hi and socialize!

Happy Halloween everybody and have fun!

Leslie brought those last year for my kids when she visited. My oldest loved them!

Thanks for adding more beans to this thread. More choice for the trick or treaters to choose from!

The sour beans? They are. And much safer than sour skittles. Not quite as sour

CellarDweller · « **Reply #22 on:** October 31, 2008, 11:02:32 am »

Oh, but sour skittles are soooooo good.

the Boston baked beans look good too.

Whoo-eee-yeah, for TheWishWitch!!! This thread is so great Friend!

I love the BBM characters "in costume"

And just to complement your bean theme, we're giving out Jelly Belly beans for Trick or Treating over in Social Events (complete with a poll!). http://bettermost.net/forum/index.php/topic,29517.msg430662.html#msg430662

BetterMost certainly is a very bean-y place!

I love Boston Beans too! I think their one of the oldest manufactured candies along with things like Clark bars (I seem to recall learning this on the Food Network once).

More beans. 'Sugar beans' (I don't know what they're called in english, so I just literally translated). They are given as a present when a baby's born. It's chocolate covererd with sugar in all possible colours.

Brokeback Halloween

Ennis: "You know I'm sorry we can't spend Thanksgiving together. But we do have Halloween. Look, I made a Jack-O-Lantern for you. Also made pumpkin pie and pumpkin soup."

Jack: "Don't need no soup 'n no pie."

Ennis: "C'mon Jack, lighten up on me. Take a look at least. I left the beans out of the soup this year."

Jack: *sighs* " 'k. M'comin. But you know, Christmas ..........."

Ennis: "Next year Jack. Promise!"

ENNIS: What exactly is Samhain? I mean, my folks was Methodist.

JACK: Samhain is ... I don't know what Samhain is. My mama never explained it to me. I guess it's when sinners like you and me march off to trick-or-treat.

Great images, Laura! I especially love the first one, with Ma Twist.

Q: What did Jack say to the coyote?

A: Missed you so much I can hardly stand it.

(OK, so it's not very Halloweeny, but I thought of it and couldn't resist.)
