True, campness is used to greater effect (affect?) by straight guys, Robin Williams in Mrs. Doubtfire, Jim Carrey in everything, Kevin Spacey in Superman Returns.
Camp has become associated with being gay, but its not like a defining factor. Plus, neon does not equal camp.
However I agree that looking at the bigger picture, even if Schumacher did bring some 'gay' into the films, thats not the reason they failed. Crappy acting, corny dialogue, rubbish special effects, and studio meddling ruined those films... Not nipples and neon...
