Borat. Discuss.

'Azamat - they are Jews! They changed their shapes! How much money should we give?'

Never saw the show, trailer looks hilarious. I'm in.

Right, I forgot it wasn't in general release yet. I saw it in a special preview screening about a week and a half ago. I don't think you will be disappointed.

The best clips from the show are on youtube.

Looks very funny. I'm having trouble getting my friends to go because they heard it was anti-semetic. It's ironic anti-semitisim right? He's jewish I thought.

I'm very excited about this movie... Big fan of the Ali G show and this looks like more of the same- which is definately a good thing

It's anti-anti-semetic.

I saw it ages ago at a pre-release, and it changed my life. The funniest, most offensive, most amazing movie ever.

Wow. I've really been missing out on this stuff, thanks for the youtube tip. Man now I'm really excited to go see this after hearing all of this.

I envy you.

have been working in a news centre when the raw footage of his antics and publicity stunts have come through reuters.... absolutely clasic.

the first 4 mins of borat are on aintitcoolnews.com and after watching it I cant wait to see this.

Ya I been watching Ali G show for years. Dude is hilarious. Can't wait til he makes a better Ali G movie, and even a Bruno one. Bruno rules. And TD I hate you for seeing this 'ages ago'. I read your comment in my mind with you saying it so nonchalantly, goddamn you.

All sacha characters are brilliant.The gay fashion designer is also very funny.
I saw him live at the european video awards.He practically alienated the show.He was borat all the time even after the show talking to the press!
A very funny man indeed.

"Hello you're on Austria Gay TV! What do you have to say to Austria's gay community?"

Fash, I was saying it in the most obnoxiously nonchalant way possible. I had a ticket that got me into an advance screening where they wanded us and took away our phones. The back half of the theater was press and critics.

Ditto, but no press or critics (that I noticed). Other than myself.

Why are the people doing the 'scanning' at these events always old retirees?

Wow. This movie was amazingly awesome. I've seen it twice already. It's disgusting, offensive, and downright hilarious.

Saw it last night, never laughed so hard in a movie before in all my life. I really can't believe they got away with an R rating though.

28 million in only 850 theaters...that's insane.

I saw it opening night. It was funny, but it wasn't the funniest movie I've ever seen. It certainly had some amazing moments (the "Running of the Jew" was probably the best part of the movie), but I don't understand how people are calling it revolutionary and whatnot. I mean, South Park has been breaking these same boundaries for the past few years, Borat is only a sign that America is finally starting to loosen up a little.

I still noticed nobody laughed when he mentioned the "Jews repeating their attack of 9/11". No one in the theater knew what to do, sort of half laughing and groaning at the same time (yet the running of the Jew was met with unanimous laughter).

My theatre exploded with laughter at the 9/11 thing, odd.
