This doesn't look at all funny. Plus, it looks like it could potentially offend a lot of people, which isn't a problem if it's funny, but this just looks crude.

I've never liked him to be honest, not since the Ali G stuff on the 11 o'clock show.

Its just not my type of humour, you know.. like the office or Borat?

I watch them for 5 minutes and I have to switch off.. the cringe inducing stuff just makes me want to bite my own fist off in shame. I got ten minutes into Borat, and then he started kissing a random bloke on the train and I was forced to switch off. It just makes me uncomfortable.

On a side note, does anyone else get that?

I saw a male Shakira dancing in the street in NY and I got so embarrassed I just... I physically had to flee the scene and go for a few pints because I get embarrassed on behalf of the person involved!

Its funny eh? I can happily throw a grenade at a boy soldier, but Im really not comfortable watching a man in a bikini dance to pop music. :(

We are arming Syrian rebels who support ISIS, who is fighting Iran, who is fighting Iraq who we also support against ISIS, while fighting Kurds who we support while they are fighting Syrian rebels.

Cringe is indeed the word. I can't watch these things... it makes me die

We love what we love. Reason does not enter into it. In many ways, unwise love is the truest love. Anyone can love a thing because. That's as easy as putting a penny in your pocket. But to love something despite. To know the flaws and love them too. That is rare and pure and perfect.

Nice. I enjoyed both Borat and Bruno, but it would have been really old if he had done another one of those movies. This looks like it'll be hilarious.

Hey thats what me and some mates do when we want to sneak booze into a movie. We get one of those bladders and fill it with grog. Wear it on our stomach, pretend we have a beer gut and then go nuts once we're inside cinema. One of our female friends tried it once and an old lady asked her if she was pregnant. Shes didnt have the heart to come clean about it.

I watched Borat again yesterday, and still laughed my ass off.

I'll give this film a shot, based solely on the fact that they make fun of the Kardashians in the trailer.

Yeah, Borat is hilarious. I'm not sure 'enjoy' is a word I'd use, but I liked it a lot. It does make me cringe, though not as much as Bruno.


Sweet lord.



I think the appeal of such films is similar to the appeal of super sour sweets - it's kind of uncomfortable but thrilling. This new one doesn't look half as clever, though.

Eh, probably just going to contribute to this country's mass xenophobia against muslims. He's like the Tyler Perry of world issues. Sure, some intelligent people will watch it and think it's funny, but for the most part, idiots are going to watch it and blow it out of context.

Not a big fan of sasha. He's a smart guy and a decent actor, but he puts too much controversial "fuel" out there.

Bruno was disgusting, but I enjoyed it. There were certain parts that I considered cliche and unnecessary though. Just blatant over-the-top homosexuality that made it extremely uncomfortable to watch with other people. Borat was good, but again, objectified muslims a bit, and that was at a different time in our conflict in the middle east... I don't think it did them any favors, basically.

I can remember a lot of people my age, and a lot of people older than me just simply despising muslims because of what they saw in movies, Borat in particular. Any film that objectifies people irks me, really. I think Woody Allen's done a good job of portraying the jewish people without directly portraying them, if you know what I mean. There are certain references that you simply wouldn't understand unless you were jewish, and a lot of people don't pick up on the clues. If I had to watch a movie that objectified people of a certain race, I'd at least want it to be a little more clever than mocking Ghadafi.

I for one, am definitely going to go see. Looks like a great movie to watch with friends.
To be honest as well, people seriously need to lighten up in the world. They can only see the bad in something.

Borat was all about Muslims? ...I didn't quite get that. Just stereotypical American idioacy in general. 0.o

Anyhow it looks alright. Admitedly I'm expecting that it won't all be quite as funny as that last joke with the pistol, be it'd be a good watch if a little alcohol was involved probably.

Borat was all about Muslims? What? News to me.



Anyway, this looks funny. I find Borat (and especially Ali G) difficult to watch for the same reason I can't listen to prank calls. They make me cringe. Borat, the actual movie, was fine. And the Ali G movie was fine because it was a fictional narrative and not him interviewing real people. This movie appears to be in the same style - it's a fictional character in a fictional world, not him really trying to pass himself off as a dictator to unsuspecting Americans.

See, I enjoy the cringe-style humor when it's done correctly.

My favorite part of Colbert's early work, before everyone knew about him, was when he'd have those incredibly uncomfortable interviews with people that didn't know they were being messed with.
