Bruno - trailer

looks to be more a physical comedy than borat was, though i guess when i look back on it borat was pretty physical in a lot of places as well..

zis is a gay show lol

Lol, should be good, of course you lot wouldn't find tis funny... since it's actually funny.

Me and my friends always make that fist pumping motion in reference to that guy in the beach skit, it's so funny even after all these years. I can't believe how the guy is able to slowly manipulate those kids, only because "it'll be on tv!"

this trailer got me so excited i threw up

Sascha watered down Borat so heavily for the movie i don't have high hopes for the Bruno one

i think the only genuinely awesome things Bruno did on the show was the one where he got all those college wrestlings kids to practice with him on the beach and then at the end told them to say hi to the viewers at home of 'austrian gay tv' and the guy had a total jock neck vein freakout

and the other is when he got the fashion mogul guy in an interview to use the phrase 'send them to Auschwitz' for things that were passe

i'm one of the only people i know who thinks the Borat movie was mostly shit, not only because they watered down the offensive nature of his character but also a good percentage of the movie was totally staged unlike the show. The whole pamela anderson capture at the end was VERy cringe worthy for me on several levels , one of those levels being that people i knew believe that Pam Anderson was not in on it!

:confused:

I must have seen a completely different film, I've seen both the British and American series and I didn't see anything about Borat that seemed watered down to me. If anything I felt like he did the opposite. He hired a few actors like the guy that played his manager and the women that played the prostitute that became his wife at the end, but he used the other actors to give credibility to his character. So the comedy was still about the reaction he got from real people. That Anderson bit was staged, of course, but everything else I've read about the production of the film indicated the situations he put himself in were very real.

i think i just have a very selective memory, i don't remember anything on the movie exceeding or even matching the intensity of him getting the guy who owned his own hunting grounds to say out loud that it's unfortunate we have laws preventing us from murdering blacks or homosexuals.

in conclusion i probably just prefer Borat in small doses

i think the bruno character is very funny but this movie looks weak. didn't laugh at the trailer at all. hard to tell though, i'll see it when it comes out.

i agree 100%. Let's make out.

i liked Borat quite a bit. I don't have high hopes for this... will probably wait till it comes on cable...

qft

For me the worst part about Borat was the fallout afterwards, with everyone screaming High five and Very nice after every sentence for the better part of two months. I'm praying to god that this won't happen with Niche Niche or Ach Ya. I think it will.

oh shit, you're right, dr L ...i forgot about the legion of idiots going "EHH, VERRRY NIIICE!" months after borat.

i was looking forward to this wholeheartedly, but now you've planted the seeds of doubt within me.

i think it will be a great film. he will get funny responses like he did in borat and i will laugh at them.

Bruno will be on the Tonight Show with Conan O'brien on Thursday. Should be hilarious.

this alone sums up my feelings about sasha baron cohen's films

this doesn't look funny at all. also a lot of it looks staged. the talk show is really fake looking.

sashca baron coen is a one trick pony

the only way he can redeem his career right now for me personally is to play Freddy Mercury in this Queen biopic because obviously he is perfect for that role

and don't get me wrong i think the guy is insanely talented, his balls are gigantic in that he's able to stay in character during such intense situations however since he HAS set the bar this high in the past its a shame hes wasting his talents milking the same characters, watering them down for american audiences ( i bet in the Bruno movie there isn't a single 'back to auchwitz' or insensitive german fashion mogul nazi killing jew joke) instead of moving onto new characters and or just doing more character acting roles. i think he's a great actor but he's just going through his career on auto-pilot right now or so it seems.

Bruno will always be this hairy stubble face mohwake brandishing crazy man to me :

Bruno on Letterman Tonight

did you watch bruno on couple of weeks ago ??

It was pretty funny, Conan got a lap dance

I think Sascha is gonna be himself on Letterman, not as Bruno
