Seen or heard the promos for this stupid new movie coming out about some lame barely english speaking middle eastern moron named "Borat"????? Could quite possibly be the single stupidest piece of celluloid ever produced!!! Saw this clown open Saturday Night Live the other night.....the worst piece of comedy (attempted) that I have ever witnessed!!!! Absolute trash......straight to dvd next week!:behead:

I keep seeing this jacka$$ everywhere. I've about seen enough and the movie isn't even out.:gorez:

You guys should see his sister. She is very niiiiiiiiiiiiiice.

......something 'bout a wizards sleeve.

borat.....was on the news....where....they were interviewing
his countrymen and women...apparently boiled horsemeat is
a favorite food there... one guy was asked "what would happen if
Borat came here?"....the guy answers ....they would kill him :rotf2:

Best known for his character Ali G, comedian Sacha Baron Cohen was born in London in 1971 to a Welsh father and an Israeli mother. He first assumed the role on Channel 4's The Eleven O'Clock Show in 1999, embarrassing himself as well as clueless interviewees as a British hip-hop wannabe, acting as the "voice of da youth." The character was wildly popular, gaining Baron Cohen his own program, Da Ali G Show, in 2000, which was brought to the U.S. in 2003. Baron Cohen employed a comedic technique that consisted mainly of acting stupid as many well-known guests such as Pat Buchanan, Buzz Aldrin, and Boutros Boutros-Ghali, afraid of looking uncool, would play along and try to answer his inane or bizarre questions. He eventually took his alter ego to the big screen with the feature film, Ali G Indahouse: the 2002 movie found Ali G trying to prevent his neighborhood from being demolished after he is elected to Parliament.

Da Ali G Show also included segments from two of Baron Cohen's other characters. Bruno, an Austrian fashion reporter from a fictional program called Gay TV, frequently put homophobic guests on the spot, while misogynistic Kazakhstani immigrant Borat showcased his flagrant anti-Semitism to clueless interviewees who, failing to catch onto the satirical nature of the show, would either join him in his bigoted beliefs or try to explain American values to him. Controversy surrounded all three of Baron Cohen's characters, as critics blasted him for endorsing racism, anti-Semitism, and homophobia. HBO, which aired Da Ali G Show, insisted that all of the show's characters were meant to make fun of the prejudiced and ignorant, not the persecuted. It has also been noted that Baron Cohen himself is Jewish and comes from an active Zionist background.

In 2005, he lent his vocal talents to the animated film Madagascar, marking a departure from his Da Ali G. Show characters that he would cement in 2006 with a role in the Will Ferrell comedy Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby, as a flamboyant French Formula 1 driver who challenges Ferrell's NASCAR supremacy. A comedy match made in stock-car heaven, the summer release was the perfect chance for the comedian to try his hand at ensemble work, but he was soon growing his mustache out to reprise his Kazakhstani alter-ego for the feature film Borat. Though followed by the usual controversy from those who misunderstood Baron Cohen's style, the film began generating buzz when it earned massive praise at Cannes, and despite beginning with a relatively small core audience, became the talk of Hollywood as perhaps the most innovative form of comedy to grace the screen in years.

Looking ahead, Baron Cohen signed on to star in Curly Oxide and Vic Thrill in 2007, a fact-based story about a young Hassidic Jew who forms an unusual musical partnership with a grizzled old rock musician. Tina Fey, writer of Mean Girls and longtime head writer for Saturday Night Live wrote the script, with Lorne Michaels slated to produce

sorry to differ but I think the Ali G charachter is pure genius. I saw a piece of his movie where he is elected to parliament and it was pretty damn funny. Its a different kind of humor. Hey Andy Kaufman was out there too, and history remembers him as a comedy genius, not comparing him to Andy but his style is also just as unique I think along with the alter Ego. The funny thing is I heard this same comparison on a radio show today too.

I agree Tinman, I think he is absolutely hilarious.

I watched the Ali G show on HBO. The best character by far was Borat. Some funny a$$ stuff.

Check out this video of Borat. :rotf2:

Not sure who I liked better, his sister who he proudly proclaims is is the #4 Prostitute in all of kasakstan, or his wife who calls him a skinny **** that should do something useful like dig his mother a grave. Nice wholesome family.

VERY VERY FUNNY.

-spence

Oh Larry, with your extensive knowledge of the Bomba humor system, I can't believe you don't like Borat!
He makes me pee my freaking pants every time he talks.
I've been a hug Ali G fan for years...can't wait to see the movie.
Maybe you, me and Mikey can go...I guarantee you'd laugh...especially if Mikey got to you with the funny stuff, first (I stay away from that stuff, freaking drug tests!).
Later,
Rick

I have been brought to tears by borat many many times. He is by far the best SBC character.

BTW, I own the Ali G movie and it is not good, but I think Ali G on HBO is very good.

Well you fans of the movie can get ready for another one. It starts shooting next year, this one has Cohen as "gay Australian fashionista Bruno".

He's laughing all the way to the bank, Time says he signed a 42.5 million deal.

OMG!!!! that is one of the funniest movies I have ever seen.....very, very funny stuff......:jump1: :shocked:

I've seen it two times in the last week, took a little break from the rules on the last trip:smokin: :eyes: :huh:
Wow, my girl made me move down three seats cause I couldn't stop laughing so loud.
Think I'm going again next week, last time I've been to see a movie more than once was "Better off Dead" 1987?
20 freaking years!!!
