|A biopic of [[Freddie Mercury]], the lead singer of the band Queen. While it does show elements of the practice of homosexuality and hedonism, at the same time, the film largely condemned the practice since it was made clear that Mercury's embracing of these things was what ultimately ruined Queen and his personal relationships, and is what ultimately killed him via AIDS. In addition, Paul Prenter, the only other major character to embrace homosexuality in the movie, was depicted in a very negative light, as he was one of the reasons Mercury went down a bad path, with it being made clear later on that Paul largely was using Mercury for his own gratification, blamed others for his bad ideas, and even hid vital information from Mercury deliberately such as the Live Aid concert plans as well as Mary Austin calling him. It also had a promotion of redemption, as Mercury, inspired largely by his former girlfriend/wife, Mary Austin nearing the end of the film, attempts to reconnect with his band and family and make amends in the time he had left before dying from AIDS. That all being said, however, it's debatable whether the film intended to paint his homosexual escapades in a negative light, as several members of the production company, including Freddie Mercury's actor Rami Malek, indicated that it was a "regrettable" decision as a result of not having enough time to give a "more balanced" view of (ie, promoting) his bisexual lifestyle.

|''The Brady Bunch Movie''
|1995
|PG-13
|A parody of the famous 1970s sitcom, the Bradys still act live their normals selves even though it’s set in the mid 1990s. The plot is about Mike owing the IRS $20,000 in back taxes, and with his 1970s architectural style not being hip with jew clients, and spending a bunch of money on trips to the Grand Canyon and Hawaii, they may have to sell the house which Larry Dittmeyer plans to turn the neighborhood into a mall. On one hand, the High School counselor is played by infamous drag Queen RuPaul, and Marcia’s friend Noreen is heavily implied to be lesbian. However, Peter who’s going through puberty, eventually builds up the courage to knock down the bully Eric Dittmeyer, and win his crush over, along with the Bradys always sticking together regardless if the house forecloses or not even if the road is rough.
Four members of the original cast cameoed in this film being Christopher Knight as a coach who encourages Eric Dittmeyer to beat up Peter, Barry Williams as a record producer who turns down Greg after hearing him sing “Til I Met You (Clowns Never Laughed Before,” Ann B. Davis as a truck driver who finds Jan, and returns her home, and Florence Henderson as Carol’s mother. Mike Lookinland was supposed to be a background cop, but that scene got cut.
|$54.1 million
