Not surprisingly, Latter Days is more popular with gay Mormon's although it's ranks quite high on AfterElton. I am surprised that Prayers for Bobby doesn't rank higher on AfterElton. Perhaps it has more meaning for those who have some sort of religious upbringing.
What is a bit surprising is the movie Rent. It ranks quite low (#47) on AfterElton but is very popular with gay Mormon's. I haven't seen the movie and, frankly, it doesn't seem to be a movie I would enjoy. So, what is it about Rent that makes it so popular with MoHo's?
FWIW, here are the movies I've watched ranked and enjoyed, ranked by how well I liked them

What? You haven't seen Shortbus! Fix it. Fix it soon!
Thanks for the new ranking! I'll definitely have to update my Netflix queue.
Rocky horror is trans/drag camp, not so much gay. Completely sicked me out- but my tolerance level is quite low.
You have to watch C.R.A.Z.Y. By far the best gay movie I've ever seen, and one of my favorite movies in general of all time. Very well made, and very relatable. A definite must-see. If you have netflix, it's available for instant viewing.
C.R.A.Z.Y. is a great movie, but if you have an aversion to subtitles or dubbing you might take issue. If you speak french, like moi it's a great movie.
"It's just a jump to the left. And then a step on the riiiiight!"
Go see Rocky Horror Picture Show! I don't know if I would even call it that great, but the weirdness will keep your attention. When I was in the university choir, we would always sing it for our Halloween concert.
Blech. Rent makes me puke.
Rent is all about the music. I have only seen the musical once (live) and I wasn't able to grasp fully everything that was going on, so I can't really comment on its story/characters.
I know I'm always ragging on Latter Days, but it really was a terrible film. TERRIBLE.
Angels in America was very well done, but you have to remember it was an HBO film. Be prepared for some very graphic language and sex. I felt like the miniseries didn't really know where it was going, but it had an amazing score and some very poignant moments.
Brideshead Revisited is another one that o-mo (I think) recommended. The miniseries was quite good, and I liked a few of the characters better in that version, however, it was SOOOOOO LOOOONNGGG I couldn't finish all TWELVE episodes. Check out the shorter version.
Sad. None of my favorite gay movies are on your list.
I just showed "Heights" to my BYU friends a couple months ago. Apparently nobody ever heard of it while it was in theaters. (Glenn Close, James Marsden, Elizabeth Banks.)
"The Hours" and "Far From Heaven" are two favorites as well because of Julianne Moore. And of course, just about any Don Roos movie ("The Opposite of Sex," "Happy Endings.")
