An Apology From Big Gay Picture Show

October 1, 2020 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

What can we say, except sorry. As those who’ve visited Big Gay Picture Show in the past will know, there hasn’t been any new content on the site for the past 18 months or so. After six and a half years the site didn’t go out with a bang and there was barely a whimper. It just kind of stopped.

In my defence I can only say that life took over and the various pressures of existence meant that I needed to take a step back and recharge. Unfortunately, that recharge has taken longer than originally planned.

However, the site is now coming back. A few things will be different – there’ll probably be less news about non-LGBT titles and fewer posts in general – but the hope is that will allow us to be more focussed and offer a few new and different things. Of course, we’ll be keeping what has always been the backbone of the the site – news and reviews of LGBT-themed TV, movies, web series and more.

We’ll be gearing back up over the next few days, so if you have any thoughts about things you’d like to see, feel free to Contact Us. While we can only apologise for disappearing for 18 months, we’re happy to back and hope you’ll enjoy what we have to offer in the future.

The Ice King Director James Erskine Discusses His Film About Gay Olympic Skater John Curry

February 22, 2018 By Paddy Mulholland Leave a Comment

“What would it be like to grow up in a society that said you cannot be who you are?” A provocative premise to derive from a sports documentary, or at least one ostensibly about sports, and not an entirely expected one. Yet, for many, such a thought lies at the heart of a life lived in fear and self-doubt. It is what Winter Olympic gold medal-winning ice skater John Curry created from these potentially self-destructive qualities that inspired Emmy-nominated director James Erskine to explore his life and career in The Ice King, a new documentary due for release in the UK on February 23rd.

Curry earned his status as an international sports celebrity through the early 1970s as a revolutionary character in figure skating, transforming the sport from a simple display of physical prowess into an art form. He won Olympic, World, European and British Championship medals, permanently changing the worldwide public’s perception of the sport. Yet Erskine recalls his recollection of Curry as being only vague prior to embarking on the documentary, with his primary inspiration coming from author Bill Jones’ 2014 book, Alone: The Triumph and Tragedy of John Curry: “This was an amazing story and I thought, ‘I must make it!’” [Read more…]

Big Gay Picture Show’s Top 10 LGBT- Themed Films Of 2017

December 30, 2017 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

It’s hard to believe that 2017 is coming to an end. Indeed, it’s somewhat hard to believe we managed to get through the year without the apocalypse happening, considering the likes of Trump and North Korea. Alongside the political tumult, there have been some great LGBT-films doing the rounds, and it’s time for us to round up what we think are our Top 10 of the year. There are certainly plenty of films below that are worth checking out.

To be in for consideration the film needed to be released in either the US or UK in 2017, or to have been seen by us in connection with a recognised film festival. It should also be noted it’s not based purely on the score out of 10 we gave the movie at the time we saw or reviewed it, but also how we view it in hindsight and whether it’s stuck with us over the months. So take a look below to see what we think is the best of 2017. [Read more…]

BGPS’s Top 10 Christmas Gifts For The Gay Who Has Everything

December 5, 2017 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

Christmas is nearly upon us and while some people have already finished all of their Christmas shopping, others (such as me) are only just starting. So if you need a few ideas for what to give, we’ve pulled together a list of 10 things that should make someone very happy on Christmas day. Many of them are – as you’d expect for a site like this – linked to film, but some we just liked.

They range from festive sweaters to ethical porn, and from under £10 to over £1,000 – so there’s certainly a variety to choose from! Take a look below for some great gifts we think you should be buying for the gays you love below. [Read more…]

Apropos Of Nothing: Get Your First Glimpse Of The Sexy, Naked Men Of Dieux Du Stade 2018 (NSFW)

September 20, 2017 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

There are many calendars out there filled with hunky men in various states of undress. However, the one that arguably started the current vogue for sportsmen to get their kit off for a calendar is Dieux Du Stade.

However, it looks like things are getting a bit of a makeover, as traditionally Dieux Du Stade has tried to at least pretend to be a bit arty by keeping its photos in black and white. For 2018 though, things are getting colourful and pretty sparkly.

The calendar has expanded from its early days when it just featured French rugby players, as it now has a variety of sportsmen from around Europe. This year the men taking their clothes off include rugby players Maxime Mermoz (who will be on the cover), Baptiste Serin, Arthur Retière, Djibril Camara and Damien Chouly, as well as the likes of handball player Nikola Karabatic and swimmer Camille Lacourt.

To get us in the mood, a NSFW teaser video and some pics have been released, which you can take a look at below. [Read more…]

Crush Of The Day: Colton Haynes Shows Off A ‘Full Moon’ He Knows His Fans Will Like

August 28, 2017 By Tim Isaac 1 Comment

It’s been a busy couple of years for Colton Haynes – as well as appearing in the likes of Teen Wolk, American Horror Story and Arrow, he’s been talking publicly about his battles with anxiety, coming out as gay and more recently getting engaged. In between all that he’s been very active on social media, offering up the kind of pics that have made his fans swoon.

He may have outdone himself with a pic of the ‘full moon’, but not the one in the sky.

While vacationing in the Turks and Caicos with fiance Jeff Leatham, Haynes found time to post a few pics, including an Instagram ‘Celebrating last nights full moon’. While the first pic seems like a fairly innocuous shirtless shot, a click right reveals a bit of ‘full moon’ skinny-dipping was going on. Turn out Colton wasn’t the only one naked, as Leatham released an accompanying shot showing he wasn’t wearing much at the time either.

The pics come at the same time as a new clip reveals that Haynes’ reappearance for the final episodes of Teen Wolf will see his character come out and be in a relationship with fellow gay thespian Charlie Carver’s Ethan Steiner. That was revealed in an extended and action packed clip you can take a look at below – along with the ‘moon’-ing Instagram pics, of course. [Read more…]

Apropos Of Nothing: Take A Look At The Hot Naked Men Of The Body Positive meat Calendar (NSFW)

August 22, 2017 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

It’s time for a major Hotties alert – as long as your tastes aren’t solely limited to barely legal, mega-skinny twinks and/or the types of guys who look they live in the gym (and haven’t seen a piece of body hair they didn’t feel the need to shave). A selection of pics from the 2018 meat Naked calendar have been released, and all we can say is – Woof!

The calendar features 12 regular guys of all shapes, sizes, ages, backgrounds and professions, who agreed to strip naked and get into the bed of meat Founder and editor, Adrian Lourie.

Lourie, who first published the gay pin-up zine meat in 2010, says his portraits of men, “defy the body shaming that goes on in the gay community. Photographing naked men in bed is a great way to celebrate the bodies of ‘ordinary’ gay men.”

The calendar’s cover star Fernando, a HR professional in London’s busy Mayfair, comments, “It wasn’t an easy decision to pose naked for meat but, now I’m absolutely proud of myself for doing it. I thought I would never be picked because of my body shape and I wanted to prove that you can be hairy and have a belly and it can be sexy.”

Another of the calendar’s stars, Warren, a Digital Marketing Manager, adds, “So many of us have issues with our bodies; we think we’re too fat, too skinny, too pale, our cocks are too small, our bums not pert enough or we’re too hairy. We are constantly comparing ourselves to others, but we need to take a moment to learn to be with happy with what we’ve got and see that there’s no such thing as the perfect body.

“I’m not toned, I’m ginger, hairy, I don’t go to the gym and don’t have big muscles, I’m pale as snow and my bum jiggles but I now love being naked again. Confidence is sexy – so own what you’ve got and be proud lads!”

The meat Naked 2018 Calendar is available now from meatzine.com, alongside a special edition of meat zine featuring exclusive pictures of the guys from the calendar.

Take a look at some of the images from the calendar below, along with a behind-the-scenes video. [Read more…]

Todrick Hall Brings Us A Get Out 2 Parody Trailer That’s Really, Really Gay

August 8, 2017 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

Todrick Hall is known for his great, gay takes on everything from The Wizard Of Oz to Pitch Perfect. One thing you probably wouldn’t have expected to take on was this year’s racially tinged horror hit, Get Out. However that’s what he’s gone, with a trailer for a very ga sequel to the movie.

In Hall’s follow up, a white girl takes her black boyfriend to meet her very, very, very gay family – and things get creepier as things go on. It’s time to Get Out Of The Closet!

To be honest, I’d love the see an entire movie of this, as it looks like it could be hilarious, but sadly I think this is all we’ll be getting. Before you watch though, be aware that it does give away some of the major plot points of Jordan Peele’s movie, so once you click play you’ll be heading into spoiler territory. [Read more…]

Apropos On Nothing: Charli XCX Is Busy Thinking About Boys (& Maybe Sexualising Them)

July 27, 2017 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

Sometimes you get a music video with a guest star or two, but Charli XCX​’s vid for Boys is all guest stars all the time. There’s is a point to all these guys, which is to partially sexualise them in the way women so often are in music videos, and to do something that can’t be subverted by straight male eyes.

Charli XCX told Junkee, ‘The whole idea behind my video was to avert the male gaze. All the guys are in this video because they have a sense of humour and because they understood the concept. I told them about the whole idea of averting male gaze and they were all really into it and reacted really positively to it.

She adds, “But I just have to be clear, it’s not me digging at any of these particular people. I don’t feel like anyone in the video has done any wrong. But yes, you can read into that deep or as little as you want.”

So who’s featured being a bit romantic and sexy: Well, there’s Aminé, AG Cook, Barns Courtney, Brendon Urie, Buddy, Cameron Dallas, Carl Barât (The Libertines), Charlie Puth, Chromeo, Cobra Snake, Connor Franta, Dan Smith (Bastille), Denzel Curry, Di Casp (YouTuber), Diplo, DRAM, Fai Khadra, Flume, Frank Carter, Fred Macpherson (Spector), G Eazy, Jack Antonoff, Jack Guinness, Jay Park, Jay Prince, Joe Jonas, Joey Bada$$, Kaytranada, Khalid, Laurie Vincent (Slaves), Liam Fray (The Courteeners), Mac DeMarco, Mark Ronson, Max Hershenow (MS MR), Mic Lowry, MNEK, Oli Sykes (Bring Me The Horizon). ONE OK ROCK, Poet, Portugal. The Man, Prince & Jacob, Riz Ahmed & The Swet Shop Boys, Rostam Batmanglij, Sage The Gemini, Shamari Maurice, Shaun Ross, Shokichi, Stormzy, The Fat Jew, The Vamps (Tristan & James), THEY, Theo Hutchcraft (The Hurts), Tinie Tempah, Tom Daley, Tom Grennan, Tommy Cash, Ty Dolla $ign, Vance Joy, Ezra Koenig (Vampire Weekend), will.i.am, Wiz Khalifa, Wstrn.

Crush Of The Day: Outlander’s Sam Heughan Strips Shirtless For Men’s Health

July 26, 2017 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

Scottish-born actor Sam Heughan is one of the best reasons to watch Outlander. In case you don’t know, the show period sci-fi about a Second World War nurse who gets thrown back in time  to the 1940s, where she has to marry a young, Scottish warrior (played by Heughan) who is involved in the Jacobite risings. Their romance is complicated by the fact that she was already married in the 1940s.

It’s a role for which Sam needs to keep fit, and he’s been showing off quite how muscular he is for Men’s Health South Africa. After the mag teased the shoot back in May, we now get a far better look at the final product, with Sam being very sporty and allergic to shirts. Not that we’re complaining, of course, and we’re also appreciative that he didn’t feel the need to take a razor to his chest.

You can take a look at some of the pics below. And if you want to, you can check out the Men’s Health South Africa website. [Read more…]
