I'd Like To Take You To A Gay Barn

[marycrawford]

To brighten up a gloomy Monday, I've put one of my favorite clips from Hercules: the Legendary Journeys up on SendSpace to download for anyone who wants. It's an .avi file, about 17 Mb, and better quality than you'll find on YouTube, but it'll expire eventually, so don't wait too long. *g*

When I say that it's the barn scene from Maze of the Minotaur, experienced viewers of H:tLJ will need nothing more (though I should perhaps add that it's *both* of the barn scenes, and I edited out the flashback inbetween.) I put this up for people who haven't seen much or any Hercules, and who might like to see one of the slashiest bits in the show.

I can't tell you how much I adore this, and I remember how hard it was to cut out bits of it for my first Iolaus vid. (And how elynross could not believe Iolaus' flirty looks over the winecup were being directed at Hercules. Hee.)

ETA: I think we broke SendThisFile in our enthusiasm, and I've re-uploaded the file to SendSpace, which is an annoying site but has unlimited downloads. The 'MotMexcerptjoined.avi' link is the one you want. (Yes, I seriously suck at naming files. Ahem.)

ltlj put up a link to her Hercules/Iolaus slash manifesto, and I shall too, because it's fabulous.

Oh, what a way to brighten Monday -- thank you!!

Ooh! Thank you, I got it!

I tried to get it, but the site said it was expired, she said sadly.

I got it! Thank you so much. I found myself thinking "So just kiss him already!" What a guy excuse for rolling around together. Plus I can't believe that Hercules actually grabbed Iolaus' crotch. *runs off to play it again to see if that really happened!*

Thank you!

Um. Yeah. Flirty looks¹, check. Half-naked fighting, check.

"Mommy, what's Daddy doing to Uncle Iolaus?"

"Back to bed we go." Said while Herc shoots Significant Glances over at Iolaus, no less. o.O

I. Wow. I don't remember that at all. *boggles a little*

¹IIRC, he did the same thing when they were drinking with Xena at one point, except then he was leaning shoulder to shoulder with Herc, too.

Holy cannoli! In all seriousness, I've seen gay porn films that weren't this gay. And stopping when interrupted by the wife just puts it over the top! My jaw is flapping. I cannot believe that this made it on to US primetime TV.

Thank you so much for the clip!

I can't download, since I'm at work, but just the thought of this leaves me with a happy grin on my face. :-> :->

H:tLJ is one of those series that I have and keep meaning to watch but haven't gotten around to yet, so this was all new to me. I'd just like to point out how very very much more interesting it is when you watch it with the sound off (which I did, 'cause I'm at work) and supply your own dialogue. *g*

Project for the weekend: Get out Hercules DVDs and start watching!

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

Thank you!

Do you mind if I post this link?

I remember when I was little and I watched this show, thinking that Hercules and Iolaus had something going on.

*Watches Clip*

I was a pretty bright 10 year old. Though I doubt I caught the subtext during the manure dialogue:

"Do you mash it in?" , "No, I spread it all around"...
You have just inspired me to rent/buy the DVDs

Hi there!

I don't mean to be a spamming pain-in-the-butt, but I was wondering if you could please - oh, pretty pleas - reupload this clip?

You are already my own personal god for creating your wonderful Hercules website (your fic, fanart and screencaps really rock my socks! And your fanvids - especially "Holding Out For A Hero", featuring the Widow Twanky - are made of awesome. Please, make more vids and write more slash fic soon! XD), and reuploading this vid would be merely one more awesome act of kindness to a fellow fangirl! :)
