Great Moments In Unintentionally Homoerotic Filmmaking

It takes a real man to ditch their inhibitions and engage in a questionable montage. They just don't make them like they made them in the 80s, the golden era of the homoerotic montage. Here are some of the best.

5. Brett Favre just having fun with the boys.

Brett Favre has always proven to be a trail blazer, and he's not afraid to take things back to the days when guys playing football in questionable attire was all the rage. You know, when you could just go out and play football with your best guy friends and everybody wanted to play O or D line so they can smile and put their hands all over each other. How many blockers do you need Brett?



4. Kevin Bacon gets loose.

Kevin Bacon, the quintessential 80s actor in probably the best solo dance scene of all time. Kevin Bacon cements his place in the annals of great homoerotic scenes with the under appreciated solo punch dance scene. Most guys put holes in walls when they are angry, Kevin Bacon thrusts his hips about, alone in an empty warehouse.



3. Slider, Cerrano, Sheen, and guy in pink shorts knock around a few balls.

Navy Seals, one of my favorite movies of all time contained a little known, but classic montage. Just a few guys having fun, playing golf, and performing choreographed golf cart routines. The attire in this clip really ties it all together. Come on Charlie, if a guy wants to run his club down your crack, you'd better let him.



2. Cruise, Kilmer, and friends lube up to side out.

In perhaps the greatest upset since Giants/Patriots, the Top Gun volleyball scene is not the most homoerotic montage of all time. Who would have thought a classic fighter pilot movie would break out during your average lubed up, tension filled weekend volleyball game. Lost amid the action is Kenny Loggins cementing his status as the go-to guy for homoerotic movie montage music.



1. Rocky and Creed move in unison to a silent tune.

Not much to say, the video says it all. A timeless example of former enemies sharing a friendship that transcends the word. Two boxers in their primes running on the beach, dancing back to chest, and wrestling in the water. Nothing wrong with that.
