About... 1/4 of the people I know who saw Brokeback Mountain declared it dull/mediocre/not-all-that, and many of these people were themselves gay. I haven't seen it (the trailers put me to sleep, so I couldn't imagine sitting through a whole movie of it), so I can't comment, but it does not at all seem like a cut-and-dried, "Brokeback was robbed!" situation. There were lots of good movies up this year.
