Did you know Chronicle is a really good movie?

To be honest, that lampshading kinda bugs me, given the poor representation of gay characters in popular entertainment and generally mocking tone such a lampshading has. I generally felt that the themes of the character would have been better reinforced by making Matt gay. Since each character's "theme" was such a major part of the movie, it's a bit frustrating, beyond my own personal bias, that that was held back in an attempt to make it easier for straight guys to identify with.
