JiMBO's Hollywood Screen Kiss [Movie Transcript]

(Playing ♫ This Is My Song ♫ by Petula Clark)

I know why the world is smiling,
Smiling so tenderly,
It hears the same old story,
Through all eternity




During my senior year of high school, I found a movie called
Billy's Hollywood Screen Kiss, starring Sean Hayes a.k.a. "Jack" from Will & Grace. And I really enjoyed the movie--so much that it inspired me to come out to my two best friends at one of my Halloween parties.



Love, This is My Song
Here is a song,
A serenade to you

I showed them this clip of "The Tuxedo Dance" because I think it's one of the most romantic things I've ever seen on film.

The world cannot be wrong,
If in this world,
There is you.

I NEVER WANTED KIDS: But Then I Met Someone And Everything Changed (Katelin)

I’ve been in love, fell out of love, wished I was never in love. I believe in “lust at first sight,” which can definitely turn into love, but I can't say "love at first sight" exists. There is no typical length of time for me to turn something into a relationship. Generally, I prefer becoming friends first, but then again the "friend zone" sucks. It depends on the situation, the girl, and everything else. And usually, I like relationships, but in college, that’s harder because I'm terrible at the long distance thing. So, casual dating is usually how it goes.

Marriage... Yes, sure, I want to get married. All these laws, amendments, and, excuse my language, but BULLSHIT, they have been putting us through is unbelievable. People... it’s the 21st century, why are we writing HATE into our constitution?? Anyway, yeah I've been close to proposing before. Only once, but I guess I should be glad I didn’t since we didn't last. I was never one to sit around planning a perfect wedding. That's Wifey's role.

I use to say, no never, not me. I never wanted kids. Then, I met someone I would have actually wanted to have children with and everything changed. We had the plan that she would have the children. One from my egg, one from hers, and they would have the same father. Sounded like the dream family, I think I want to keep that plan.

I'M IN LOVE WITH LOVE: But I'm Not Meant To Be A Mother (Tory)

I believe in love and I LOVE love. I do not believe in love at first sight (though my sister swears the first time she saw her husband, she knew she would marry him), but I think the first encounter can say a lot about a relationship.

I'm very relationship-oriented...I've never really done a dating thing, only long-term things. I've been in 2 serious year and a half relationships. I loved both of them very much and at the time believed I would marry them.

I definitely want to get married one day, but I'm not the type of person to plan it out before I even meet the right man. I did go to prom in a wedding dress though...

I have no intention of having children. Growing up, imagining my future, I never thought of children as being part of it and I don't think I am meant to be a mother.

KIDS? YES, PLEASE!: I Need Someone Who Wants A Big Family (Adaeze)

Love is what drives me to get up every morning. I'm a super passionate romantic to the T. Not only for a lover but also for family and friends. That's just how I get down. I want to believe in love at first sight, because it does happen but most times, people are only physically attracted to another person that they may like.

I've never been in love but I know that when I do it is when I love the "flaws" in that person and vice versa. When I can argue with my love and some time later make up. I know it maybe impossible but I want a everlasting love that my mother and father had before he passed away. I told my mother that if she wanted to remarry that my siblings and I would support her but she told me that my father was the only man she could ever love. I want to love and love in that way.

Ok. So I've been planning my dream wedding since forever! *squeal*

My wedding will take place in a stone castle in Ireland during the fall season. I love rich royal colors but I can come to a compromise with my wife or husband (if either is into party planning). I want my sister to be my maid of honor. Also I want bridesmaids and “bridesmen” because I have more guy friends then girls.

My wedding dress is going to be form-fitting Victorian-esque with a trumpet skirt, very elegant. The back will be a upside down curved triangle cutout and as the cutout turns into the skirt seam, that seam will be lined with 4 or 5 buttons. The dress will be a strapless dress made of silk and has a lace like design. The top of the dress will be an attached lace (kind of like a lace borelo with a high neck (as seen here).

The after party: I would like an opening speech and couple's first dance but after that, let the party begin! Open bar and buffet!

Oh, I will have a registry for presents because getting 10 toasters, >.<, Epic fail.

All this can change over time (maybe not the dress ^_^) but a girl can dream, can't she? ^.^

Sad reality: more people may show up to my wedding if it’s to a guy, sigh...silly relatives, oh well

Kids? Yes, please! I really want 10 kids (5 girls, 5 boys). I need someone who wants to have a really big family and live on a farm.

If I'm married to a guy, I'll have two kids the “Birds and the Bees way,” but the other eight, I will be adopting because I've wanted to adopt since middle school.

If it is to a woman, it depends, I wouldn't want to go to a sperm bank or shag a friend but if she wanted to go this route then I would be fine with it, but I'm still going to adopt. ^^ Pwease?

LOGICAL PROGRESSIONS: Getting Married and Raising Children (James)

"Love's the only label that matters, and it never goes out of style." You'll have to excuse me, I just finished watching the Sex and the City movie for the 20th time this month! >.<

Well, when it comes to love, I believe there are soooo many different levels of intensity. But unfortunately, it's not an exact science. I do NOT believe in love at first sight. Lust, yes. Love, no. Most of the time when I enter a relationship, I'm fully aware that we'll just get what we want out of each other and part ways long before I even start loving him.

I don't really have a strict time-frame for when liking someone turns into loving him, but I'd say, for me, it takes more than three months. Usually, I can tell if I'm falling hard for a guy when I no longer view his flaws or shortcomings as such and start seeing them as powerful turn-ons, unique only to him.

I've gone back and forth on this next issue, but I definitely DO want to get married someday. When I was dealing with my homosexuality in high school, I sunk into a deep depression once I realized that I was never going to have my "Happily Ever After," I was never going to get married or have children, and I was just gonna live and die alone. ...Let's just say I don't feel that way anymore.

I think that marriage is less of a fairytale concept and more of a practical course of action that two committed adults take, not just for love but also for security reasons. Sadly, I definitely have not loved anyone enough to even consider the idea of proposing.

My ideal wedding would be an outlandish outdoor ceremony in a lush location, probably in Australia or Miami or Los Angeles, and it would be EPIC. For songs, I'm partial to one of Britney Spears' old B-sides, "When I Found You." FAB-U-LOUS.

Once again, it's practical for a married couple to have children, so of course, as a Capricorn, I think raising children (2 sounds like a good number) would be part of our obligation as a married couple. Ideally, I would want to pay a surrogate mother, who would only play a minor role in our children's upbringing but wouldn't be completely hidden away.

It is important that my partner want to raise children, because after a certain point, every relationship has to evolve... otherwise, you're just dicking around. But then again, there would be one loophole: nieces, nephews, godchildren, and pets just might fill the void if my partner was totally against us having kids... or if the process became too complicated or expensive.

MY FIRST TEENAGE LOVE AFFAIR: The 1st Woman To Truly Break My Heart (Nelly)

First woman I ever fell for was my first real ex-girlfriend and the only one to ever truly break my heart and screw me up for relationships to come. She wasn't my first crush; no, that belonged to a girl I met in 8th grade... younger sister to another girl we went to school with. And I think she might've liked me back, but I never knew for sure. She was in 6th grade then, and made my heart pound in ways it's never done before.

I never told her, as I wasn't completely aware of my sexuality then. All I knew was I liked to hang around after school, walk her halfway home, and part ways with her when I needed to head back to my house. Some days I'd go back to school to walk her home.

It was weird, because it felt most natural to just hug her... hold her close and just keep her there, where I knew she was safe. No one really knew about her, let alone that I was so attracted to her. And, because all grades went in through different entrances back then (yes, our middle school was *that* stupid), when she and her sister (same grade as us) came to the front entrance I sometimes walked her over to the other one; or, in most cases, she just stayed with us.

I wasn't out in 8th grade; I had an inkling that I was gay, as something else happened that year: one of the other girls came up to where my friends and I were sitting at lunch and asked me if I wanted to go out with this guy named Jamal. I automatically responded with a no, citing it being weird that he shared a name with my brother. Of course, I wasn't attracted to him either; I just thought he was a nice guy.

Unfortunately, when I graduated middle school and went on to 9th grade, I rarely saw her. After about a year, she disappeared from the area entirely (as some people do). I'm half tempted to look her up on MySpace now, but wouldn't really know what to say to her. It's been years, y'know?

MY ROCKETMAN: I Will Always Love You (James)

The first (and possibly, the only) man I ever really loved was... well, let's just call him by his old petname, "RocketMan." ;-) He and I met in the 6th grade. He wasn't all that bright, so the only classes we had together were Band and Gym. To tell you the truth, in the beginning, I actually had my eye on his best friend, who was also in the class. BUT... HE was the one who seemed fascinated with me and for some reason, loved to horse around in the locker room.

But I digress. I didn't start falling for him until the 6th grade overnight Band Trip to Busch Gardens. We shared a hotel room with two other guys with only two beds, so we chillaxed on the floor; as you might guess, fooling around ensued.

After nearly three years of courting back and forth and after his best friend moved away, he and I started hanging out at each other's houses every day after school. As I got to know him and realize that he was NOT as dense as I originally thought, I fell head over heels for him. And so, on one fateful Saturday afternoon in May of 2001, we both lost our virginity... while my parents were in the living room right above us. XD

Our relationship was almost entirely a secret, until one of my girl friends heard him say something she shouldn't have (about a "private sleepover invitation"), one day in English class. Back then, I liked the secrecy, I liked holding onto the hope that I was just bisexual... but nowadays, I feel that there's no place for secrecy in a mature relationship and VERRRRRRRRRY few men out there are worth hiding who you are.

Sadly, once we reached high school, we never had another class together and rarely ran into each other, but whenever we did and STILL do, it's as if no time has passed whatsoever and just the sound of his voice makes the hairs on my neck stick up... in a good way.

I'm extremely glad and lucky that my first time was with someone who I genuinely loved and will always love, now as a friend. We're forever connected and nothing will ever change that. ♥

GOD LOVES US ALL: I Hate When People Harm Others In God's Name (Adaeze)

I was raised Catholic and will start attending church regularly again. I'm a Christian, I believe in God, but I don't believe in a lot of Christian ideology, especially with the treatment of homosexuals and so on. I do know deep down in my heart that God loves us all and created us purposefully. I hate when people use God's name for war or say that whatever they are doing (no matter how wrong it is) God is backing them up. I know God is just ROTFL-ing.

I would marry someone of a different religion because the core of all religions are the same. I want to study as many religions as possible so I can fully understand them. The only religion I don't like is Satanism. I know it is about thinking about only yourself but I'm a put-others-before-yourself kind of person and I couldn't deal with such an idea.
