This is the second vertical AI BL drama I've sat through, and honestly I went in knowing better. I had it on while I was doing cardio at the gym, and what struck me was just how much the plot echoed the last one I watched. Same step brother romance angle, same mystery girlfriend showing up near the end, same extra guy pining after one of the leads. Genuinely the only thing going for it was the runtime, the whole thing wrapped up in forty five minutes flat. The setup kicks off with Finn moving schools because his mom just married into money. He finds out his new step brother Aiden goes to the same place, and he's warned to keep his distance from him. Their first run in at school is rocky, just like you'd expect, but there's this odd pull between them neither can shake off. Finn keeps telling himself not to read into it because Aiden's straight and openly homophobic. Things shift when some kids start bullying Finn and the student council president, Ryan, steps in to ...

A contemporary Western about the conductor of a tourist steam train who thinks he’s going to find excitement ditching his boyfriend for an outlaw… but of course, the reality is something much different. I wanted to like this film but somehow didn't connect with me.
A group of alien energies come to Earth and inhabit male human forms. Under the guidance of an unseen mentor they learn how to be "male" in order to be able to successfully impregnate women. This film is weird AF. Also, the film is marketed as a queer film and somehow I fail to see the relevance.

This 3 part min series each of about 12 minutes is absolutely ridiculous. A gay couple lives together with thier cat.

Following Roelof's confession that he wants to become a woman, Finn struggles with feelings of shame, love and loyalty, as he examines his father's identity and his own. The film is almost 50 minute and really needs to be trimmed to be under 30. An interesting watch, that focuses on how the kid reacts to a transitioning parent.
A short documentary about film makers voyeurism to a sexy man over 24 hours over which he shakes his ass, undress on couch, take a shower, play around, do his rehearsals. Maker sees sun bursting on the skin. A dialogue free, clearly showing a man's obsession tribute to another man's beauty.
