Blake T

Back in 2006 this movie came out.

There was also this movie that came out in 2002

But now there is a new persona for Sacha Baron Cohen, who is known as Bruno as is apparently fabulous.

It comes out on June 10th in the US and UK and June 9th in Australia.

I'm looking forward to this, when I saw Borat in the cinemas I don't think I had ever laughed that hard in the cinema before. The naked fight was just, wow.

In this thread you should talk about the upcoming movie or maybe some of Cohen's previous work.

Robcham

it's all shocking

except Ali G

Which Sex in the City girl are you, Blake?

Blake T

I'm not any, I'm Blake.

AMP'd

That is such a Samantha thing to say

I was really hoping he'd get more out of Alan Keyes in the last movie.

Oden

bruno isn't a new persona, just the one that wasn't featured as heavily on the show

Robcham

this will piss off so many people

Vivixenne

I thought Borat was pretty funny but this one strikes me as far less hilarious just because, you know, it's more of the same

only now he's pretending to be gay as well as foreign

Penguin Incarnate

Oh man so wacky. And edgy. How does he do it.

Robcham

and babies
adopted babies

I'm seeing it just for this

Kazhiim

I'm looking forward to this because it's such a radically different character than borat

I'm intrigued by his, shall we say, "range"

Faricazy

borat was okay

Hacksaw

"I have given him a traditional African name... his name is OJ."

Oh Borat

UnbreakableVow

Borat was pretty funny in theaters the first time.

Second time on DVD...not so much.

Koshian

I hope people don't latch on quoting bruno like they did borat

I might have to kill myself if that happens

I see a lot of people quoting a mock-foreign guy over a mock-flamboyant gay guy.

gaaaaaaay

The Otaku Suppository

When I watched Borat, I kept thinking of the Hungarian/English dictionary and thinking that this movie was done so much better 30 years ago and in only a 3 minute sketch.

Yeah, pretty much.

I still liked it on repeated viewings. Random Americans threatening to fuck him up. The pastor's wife saying with training he could almost be allowed in society. Shit like that doesn't get old.

You should try laughing at americans, it's pretty awesome.

Robcham

oh those silly Americans

UnbreakableVow

Why would I laugh at Americans

I can laugh at the rest of the world

#pipe

I am looking forward to him walking up to the Westboro Baptists picketing with a gimp attached to his groin

other than that eeeehhhhh

all his movies are like 10 minutes worth of saying inappropriate things and everyone laughs, 10 minutes of hamhanded storyline, rinse, repeat

Peter Ebel

Not watching this.

that might (thankfully) make things more bearable in real life, but the internet will lap this shit up

Yeah, it's that kind of obnoxiousness that wears thin real fast. A lot of people can and should make fun of Americans, since, let's face it, we kind of have it coming, but when it's a graduate of Cambridge, he can go screw himself.

I think Borat is an incredibly mean comedy and I can only sit down and watch so much of it at a time.

Janson

I never saw Borat

It looked too uncomfortable for me

Janson

Also holy shit

Blake T

Where did you find that Janson, cause that looks awesome.

Penguin Incarnate

We're all gonna die

Photos of clouds; the Cloud Appreciation Society is proposing that those clouds be classified as a new type, since the current descriptive names used for clouds don't really apply

That photo is from Scotland, this one from New Zealand is also pretty neat:

Blake T

It's like someone put the ocean on the ceiling.

Vivixenne

those clouds look fucking apocalyptic is what they look like

Janson

It's like you could turn the Scottish one upside down and it'd be Mordor
