Default Borat

Since I am turning against all forms of political correctness, and since I haven't been to a movie in the theatres in quite some time, I think a good comedy is in order:

It looks extremely funny. I'm looking forward to seeing it. The TV segment (trailer)where he laughs at the feminists makes me chuckle every time I see it.

They are shunning it here in the US. Not sure if anyone is going to run it.

I think it is because many of folks in the US don't quite get it and take it literally.

Also maybe I am right or wrong but I think the anti-defamation league might not be too keen.

either that or you guys have realised he is sending up the midwest Americans, reinfrocing a negative stereotype and thus people don't like it.

If you take it satirically and read behind the face value joke there is a lot going on.

The trailers I've seen indicate he's going after the established thought (PC) of many in the US. I think I'll be very funny!!!!!

Aaah, but Borat and Sacha Baron Cohen have been on in the UK for years, he started as Ali G, and I believe Borat was a sketch on Da Ali G show.
So, to us from the UK, he's already a legend.

I saw some fotage of the New York unvelling, The horse-draw streched old car, the fermented Camal Urine, the lifesaver in a full body G-string

No wonder kazikstan isn't happy, but I wonder if the Americans who feature in the film will have the same reaction, as many didn't know that it was and act...
