Program 6: BearCity

We have more amazing guests for Day 2. Join stars Brian Keane and Gregory Gunter as we present a funny and romantic film set in the bear community. Imagine Sex and the City with hairy chests (harness, optional!) and definitely a very different diet. BearCity will show you that being a bear is just a state of mind.

I was honestly not expecting to like this film, and went mainly because I had a pass and my friends all wanted to see it. This was far from the typical bear movie, and really showed some prominent topics, and a real sense of what the bear community can be like, pulling no punches.

I'm also ecstatic that we had the director there, and that there will be a kind-of sequel for this movie. I look forward to seeing that at a future ImageOut event!

Woody, unfortunately, the director wasn't there as Doug was in the UK for another film festival. But I thought stars, Greg Gunter and Brian Keane, represented the film really well.

I thoroughly enjoyed this film. It was nice to see the bear community depicted on screen at all, as few films have. There just aren't that many.
It was funny and sweet. The actors looked like they were having fun and my friends and I also enjoyed the eye candy! Looking forward to the next one.

Well, OK.

I thought that some of the sex stuff was kind of borderline porn. But...whatever. I'm glad people enjoyed it.

My favorite parts were when the young dude is doing the fit thing naked and his mate walks in on him, and when the 2 guys go try on all these outfits.

And all the relationship stuff was great.

Loved the movie! Story was completely engaging, dialogue was funny and the characters were entertaining.

It was difficult to hear the characters because the music dominated several scenes. Maybe it could be adjusted for future screenings?

Lovely -- more intimacy than I've seen in most films. Loved the kissing!

Great comedy and intro to Bear culture!

Bears, cute, funny, Bears.
The relationship between Tyler and Roger was a little superficial and overwhelmed by the other two relationships in there. But still very cute.

Some great sequences -- Ty and Simon trying on clothes, Uncle Mel, and some great laugh lines.

I loved the story. Someone actualy showed the truth about how us bears interact and love each other. A lot of the lines are things my husband and I have actually said to each other.

Amazingly funny and charming, albeit predictable. Nicely acted with some truly touching moments. Had some really wonderful story lines especially Michael's surgery story line and the open relationship story line. Would have liked to have seen more of the conflict with Michael and the surgery.

Woof woof. A fun and furry romantic comedy. My new favorite genre. Bears are so much more interesting!

There were some parts I didn't care for like the sleazy sex in the bars. But there were other parts that I loved like workout in the nude.

From the ballots:
Some cute scenes but I thought the script was weak, the acting ok. A little contrived.

A little mushy I thought and no matter what people's tastes are -- being overweight shouldn't be encouraged for health reasons.

Fun but no insight into the big difference between bears and growing up gay. A cub bear film about adolescent bears would be even better fun.

Very funny but I still had a hard time hearing.
