"Rush Hour" director Brett Ratner's gay experience...

| | Comments (0) |

Director Brett Ratner has another "Rush Hour" movie coming out with Jackie Chan and Chris Tucker returning for a third go-round. The Advocate has a free-wheeling interview with this anything goes director who shares a story of his first sexual experience that will blow your mind. Here's the juicy part:
Q. Rush Hour 3 follows a trend in action films. Being gay has increasingly become a punch line. It happens several times in this film.
A. Which ones? Where? I don't remember.

We make fun of Chinese people. We make fun of French people. We make fun of gay situations. We make fun of whites. It doesn't matter. It's the type of movie it is. It's a fish-out-of-water comedy. You have to have those types of situations to have the comedy. That specific idea was because it's happened to me. It's happened to my friends. We'll get together with a girl, and it'll turn out to be a guy. The reaction is “Oh, shit!” if you're not gay, which is funny, I think. Getting into the situation is funny. I laugh whenever I see one of my friends talking to a girl, and I'll ask, “Is that a man or a woman?” It's funny, especially if you don't know about it. If you know about it, fine. If that's your preference…
