We are SO thankful that Hollywood has finally stopped their bigotry and made a few movies with LGBTQ+ representation. But the film industry has a long, long way to go if it's going to undo decades of cis-heteronormativity! Here are several classic moves that DESPERATELY need a reboot with better LGBTQ+ representation!

Top Gun - the football scene in Maverick was a HUGE step backwards for LGBTQ+ voices. More volleyball and more body oil please!!!
Braveheart - a movie supposedly about bravery and nobody comes out? Ridiculous.
Saving Private Ryan - can we please just stop with the idea that Private Ryan needs saving? There's a little Private Ryan in all of us, and he just needs to hear he's perfect like he is!
12 Angry Men - ooo talk about some real tension in the jury room!
Brokeback Mountain - so ignorant assuming two cowboys who ride off together must be gay, not even considering that one might identify as a woman! Get with the 21st century, Brokeback.
Roots - how can you even talk about slavery without addressing those enslaved to heteronormativity?
It's A Wonderful Life - oh it will be wonderful alright, when George Bailey abandons his family to live his truth! Slayyy!
Avengers: Endgame - ughh they made Hawkeye so lame. Do better, Marvel!
SAW - far too long have horror movies perpetuated the myth that deranged serial killers are all cisgender, heterosexual males.
Ken Burn's Civil War documentary - get ready for a FABULOUS battle between the blue and gay!

It's not much, but it's a start, Hollywood!

Ten Years (now 25 years later) After 9/11: a Recollection, a Time to Remember

It was a clear beautiful, royal blue sky day on Wall Street. The S & P futures were up markedly, awaiting a positive open, as I turn to get my first cup of coffee. I return to CNBC to get the morning business news, when I notice that the S & P futures are falling, and they're falling fast.
