To quote myself from an old thread:
Your favorite "Gender Bending" movie.

I mean, To Wong Fu wasn't that much of a surprise seeing those guys in dresses, but General Zod?
And how prominent does the TS theme have to be? Does Ace Ventura count? :D What about Austin Powers? Or Silence of the Lambs? Ya know, in Nighthawks, Stallone is in a skirt in the first scene and in a nightie in the last scene. Shallow Hal had an awfully manly tranny.
Princesa, Beautiful Boxer, Wild Side and Normal are all good movies, but not things many people would want to see more than once.
And why doesn't anybody ever mention Dog Day Afternoon? Or Dressed to Kill? Or Orlando?
The Iron Ladies is supposed to be really funny. |
And I forgot to mention
The Badge and
Hedwig.
Transamerica is a pretty absurd movie that people seemed to like.

They say about 50% of TS people have attempted suicide and 25% have succeeded. You missed my favorite quote. Probably everybody's favorite. It just wandered into my mind along with a peaceful feeling as I was hallucinating after a whole lot of pills and alcohol as I faded out.
I've ... seen things you people wouldn't believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched c-beams glitter in the dark near the Tanhauser Gate.
All those ... moments will be lost ... in time ... like ... tears ... in rain.
Time to die.
