What tropes in gay movies do you like, want to see more of, dislike, and/or want to see less of? I’m interested in what you guys have to say!

I kinda dislike the trope of the shorter guy in the gay relationship being the bottom and the more feminine one. I know those people exist (cuz I am one lmao 💀) but being short/smaller doesn't inherently make someone feminine and submissive

One movie I’d recommend is Maurice. It was set in the Edwardian period and had a surprisingly not sad ending. (I shall not spoil)

I recently watched a japanese movie called Monster (2023), and I can honestly say it's probably my favourite movie ever. I HIGHLY recommend it, especially without reading anything about it before watching! It has a bittersweet/open(?) ending but it's ABSOLUTELY worth the watch ❤

I haven’t seen this one! I’ll put it on my must watch list

I just save the sad movies for when I feel like I can handle an emotional wreckage

It does feel off when the 'problem' of the story is being gay/queer and that's a doom or disruption of happiness. Or being queer is not fully actualized (temporary, an affair, called off, etc) and thus delegitimized. Not that the tropes you listed are absolutely off-limits, but it's pretty common for them to have that as the narrative. (Btw, respectfully, a bit difficult to hear you sometimes, the music was louder than your voice.)

Dang it, I hate when I accidentally make the music too loud lol. Thanks for telling me !

I really dislike love triangles (or angles, istg nobody does a love triangle right) or toxic ex. I generally dislike these tropes cuz they are just there to add unnecessary drama to the plot and is used to stretch out the story as well. If done right, then it is fine, for example in the show "We Are," (Thai BL) there is a love angle that happens and pushes the Love Interest's boundaries which advances the plot. Very good, I highly recommend Asian BL (Korean, Japanese, Tawain, Thai) Now for recommendations (These are all series, cuz movies feel too short) + Where to watch - We Are [KZbin] - Never Let Me Go [KZbin, Viki] - The Eight Sense [Viki] - KinnPorsche [IQIYI] - My Stand IN [IQIYI] - Not Me [KZbin, switch region to Thailand] - Love In The Air [KZbin, IQIYI, Viki] - I Cannot Reach You [Netflix, Viki] - I Hear The Sunspot [IQIYI] - Until We Meet Again [KZbin, Viki, IQIYI] - Between Us [KZbin, Viki, IQIYI] (Note : This series is a spin off from Until We Meet Again) Thanks for reading my paragraph lol, have a nice day/night to anyone reading this. (Have fun with the recommendations too!!!)
