Well I went and saw this movie last night, I must say it was possibly one of the funniest movies I have ever seen. I couldnt take offence to any of it because it was just so damn silly! I see how some people could take offence, he is getting a laugh at the expense of other peoples uncomfortability.. but I just found it funny :naughty:

I thought the movie was absolutely hysterical! I laughed so much, it made my stomach hurt. :phones:

 

It was interesting that the audience laughed loudly at all the jokes aimed at Jews, but suddenly fell silent when the humour was directed at Christians. Funny how people are very willing to laugh at others, but not at themselves. :naughty:

A very wise and insightful comment, indeed. If I hadn't repped you recently for an exploding sperm joke in the strongest material thread, I'd have done it here.

 

Self-deprecation is not when you poo on yourself... ;)

All satire is good (yes, I also laughed at the muhammed cartoons). I am going to watch Borat next week and it's incredible how much attention he has managed to raise. I love stuff like this. :)

[moo]

Not interested at all because from the clips I've watched, it seems more moronic than funny. Some folks are actually suing over the film, and I don't really blame them (am fairly amazed the guy managed to avoid any beatings).

 

Just my opinion of course, different strokes for different folks I guess. :confused:

 

[EDIT] BTW I didn't vote as there was no "Too stupid to be funny" option. :circle:

That movie was a total joke, i would have agreed to see any G rated movie than to see BORAT. 1) racist, offensive to women 2) I found it "stupid" funny
