It would hardly seem fair if this year’s Oscars promotional campaign (see above billboard captured by a Defamer reader in the Valley) were playing favorites; yet one look at the art, featuring two meaty, rugged hands firmly grasping their suggestively placed 13.5 inch (mercy!) “trophy” all but screams that the fellas of Brokeback Mountain have got this baby wrapped up.

If they are being serious, I agree
I find it slightly amusing nonetheless.

For the record, there is a companion poster which shows an elegant woman holding an award, as well.
I wonder what the BBM conspiracy theorists would say about that one.

NYadgal, the companion billboard of the woman holding one is a sign that Felicity Huffman will be a winner! Woohoo.
Girlfriend wears a penis like it's nobody's business.

A curious positioning of the gold, to say the least.
Nothing "sells" like d*ck.

Since when do penises grow out of your stomach?
And couldn't the same be said for GOOD NIGHT AND GOOD LUCK? It's black and white! Scandal!

please, the presence of a phallus just means patriarchy isn't just a relic.
it doesn't mean anything gay. even though it'd be cool if it did.

Posted: 1/31/06 at 11:52amWell, my phallus ALWAYS means something gay.

Posted: 1/31/06 at 8:01pmUpon looking at the billboard, the first thing that went through my head was not Brokeback, but CAPOTE. It looks exactly like a detail of the CAPOTE poster.
