Clearly inspired by Smigel’s “Ambiguously Gay Duo” cartoons on Saturday Night Live, Cracked magazine has published a list of “10 Movie and TV Duos Who Were Probably Gay.” While some of the usual suspects made the list (Maverick and Iceman come to mind), there are some surprises there as well.
Okay, Brandon Walsh and Dylan McKay I totally buy (no wonder Dylan always wore that squinty-eyed look of inner torment), and even Schroeder and Linus are a conceivably cute couple…but “Pulp Fiction”’s Vincent and Jules?! No way. That’s going too far. No self-respecting gay man would accessorize with a wallet that says “Bad Motherf*$ker” on it, despite the potential lowbrow camp appeal.
Oh, and Miyagi and Daniel-San? That’s just sacrilegious…no matter how fey that crane kick may have looked. Let’s let poor Pat Morita rest in peace, shall we?
