The film gave a very negative portrayal of gays and used a character being gay as a way of showing him as contemptible.

Is it your opinion that gays should only be portrayed in a positive light? That gays should not ever be shown as evil, lazy, weird, or stupid? Because that's just not reality. Gays are like the rest are world - some are great people, some are terrible, and some just go along unnoticed. Positive stereotypes are no better than the negative ones.

That's twisting the situation. I'm hardly saying gays should only be portrayed in a positive light. In this situation their gayness was a subject of mockery and it was clearly portrayed as being a negative trait.
