unintentional gay moments in movies
Everyone remembers the gay volleyball scene in Top Gun and at the end of LOTR: Return of the King where Frodo's hobbit friends jumped on his bed to frolick around with Gandolph and Viggo standing over smiling creepily. So are there any other unintentional gay moments in film?
...not that there's anything wrong with that.

What the hell was with that cut-off tank top Stallone was wearing? As if that Rocky scene wasn't bad enough, you had THAT to deal with.

Pretty much any scene in filmed Batman (serial, movie, TV series) with Bruce Wayne and Dick Grayson. The Batman pilot (1965) with Adam West and Burt Ward has a great bit where they talk about going on fishing trips together. This always gets a laugh at comic conventions.

How about in "Let the Right One In" when Oskar visits his dad? His dad's "friend" comes over to visit and Oskar gets weirded out and shuts down. Everyone thought that a homosexual relationship with this male friend must be the reason the parents weren't together anymore.
IIRC, the director was confused by the American audiences jumping to this conclusion, as clearly the dad was an alcoholic and this friend was a drinking buddy that he was going to get drunk with rather than spend time with his son.

I think another 'unintentional gay scene' is the locker room scene in Top Gun where they are all arguing in their underwear.

I guess I'll offer the standard "this tells me more about the person than anything" thought. I mean really, what state is your mind in if you see LOTR as gay?
