Borat


Could be funny.  Might not be.  Nevertheless, I present (courtesy of YouTube) the first 4 minutes of the already controversial Borat: Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan.

Oops...







BORAT star Sacha Baron Cohen was beaten up by a passer-by after he tried to play a prank as his alter ego.



He approached the man and said: “I like your clothings. Are nice! Please may I buying? I want have sex with it.”


But the bystander didn’t see the joke. He took one look at Cohen and punched him in the face.

If all else fails... sue...

Sheesh. I haven't even seen the movie... and actually know very little about it so no idea if these arguments have even the slightest bit of merit... but still seems a bit much to sue. I mean, they signed releases, right?

They came off as morons in the movie.  I don't think they can blame the movie for their moronity.  Maybe they should sue their parents!


Anyway - it looks like absolutely everybody who appeared in the film is suing:






Cohen used Glod's Gypsies as stand-ins for Kazakhs in his runaway hit movie, "Borat: Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan." Now offended villagers are threatening to sue the film's producers for paying them a pittance to put farm animals in their homes and perform other crude antics.


Residents and local officials in the hardscrabble hamlet 85 miles northwest of Bucharest said Tuesday they were horrified and humiliated to learn their abject poverty and simple ways were ridiculed for a movie now raking in millions at box offices worldwide.
