Borat 2 to premier in the US on October 23rd

Bruno was the funniest thing I’ve ever watched. So wrong on many levels

anything to wind up the right wing muppets out there, he knows how to do it spot on.

It was awful. Homophobia is rife everywhere. Exposing it is hardly revolutionary.

it’s taking the piss out of homophobes more than anything and completely mocking them by exposing their pathetic hatred to homosexuals.

I've not watched it and not that intertesed other than the clip I saw where the women in it managed to get into the White House!

Are they not a bit samey thes Borat films? How many are there, I've watched at least one and my thoughts are that it wokrs in clips/sketches but not as an actual film

Some of his bits are utterly hysterical. I like when he "gets" some loathesome pol like Giuliani.

Less so when he entraps some regular person. Doesn't work as comedy for me as he is taking advantage of somebody who may not be sophisticated enough to know any better. And doesn't work IMO as social commentary because you can find ignorant hateful morons in any country. And of all political persuasions.

Not a patch in first one

The guy is a brilliant character actor imo. Good, well written comedy is meant to push boundaries, it always has, and always should. It's a vent for the steam of normality.
I'm glad he's still doing it, still being imaginative, keeping his characters relavant.
The fact that it stirs discussion and debate does it for me.
Weather you find it funny is irrelavant, he's out there doing it, when most would back out and do panto or something.
Fair play to him.

There’s two. The thread title is a bit of a give away. ;)

Yours?

That you seem to think that “straight to Amazon” is somehow equivalent to the old “straight to video” for things that used to be shit.

I thought the daughter was fantastic. How on earth she kept a straight face throughout and did not blow it, I will never know.
