Gay Rights Comedy “Pride” Playing in Russia

(via The Hollywood Reporter)

Apparently, it’s just got a really stern rating in the theaters where it’s playing. 

While there are very many homophobic laws currently in place in Russia, the very funny Pride from last year is screening, apparently to favorable reception. 

The film from last year tells the he story of gay activists in the U.K. joining forces with miners in the 80s and is a pitch perfect feel good period piece dramedy. Many pro-gay movies apparently get protested in Russia, but Pride hasn’t seen any protests yet.

We can only hope that is the start of trend in Russian cinemas.

Knowing that, Funny or Die has come up with a new game show that runs with that idea called “Here’s How You’re Getting F*cked”. The title pretty much explains the game and we’ll let host Bil Dwyer take it away from here.

People who talk to their computer screens, record it, and just say whatever comes to their mind with no filter often say the most ludicrous things ever. Uploading their rhetoric online has resulted in a myriad of people speaking their mind when they should probably speak to someone else first.

So with that in mind, the very funny Jared Logan satirizes this fad with “Don’t You Think” where he adds a green screen and a guest in Guy Branum and comes from a place where you constantly quote your HS football coach.
