“Borat: Gift of Pornographic Monkey to Vice Premiere Mikhael Pence to Make Benefit Recently Diminished Nation of Kazakhstan"
apparently already been filmed and to be released soon
fun fact 1, Fox screened the entire nude fight scene at Comic Con to an audience that had no idea who Borat was, a lot of parents complained and Fox were banned from Comiccon the following year !
fun fact 2; Kid Rock was so angry about Pamela Anderson being part of the film, he divorced her
In the Grauniad today? Made me smile. I gave my DVD copy of the first film to a charity shop as it made me feel dirty owning it but my goodness did it make me laugh.
Very nice!
fun fact 2; Kid Rock was so angry about Pamela Anderson being part of the film, he divorced her
🤔
🤦🏻♂️
Look who claims that was the case.
Was first reported from a friend of Anderson in 2006
A pal tells the New York Post that Rock's "male insecurity and major anger issues," are to blame and that a big fight over her participation in the film "Borat" caused tension between them.
"(Universal Studio chief ) Ron Meyer held a screening of 'Borat' at his house for a bunch of people, including Pam and Bob (Rock's real name is Robert Richie)," the model's pal tells the Post. "It was the first time Bob had seen the movie, and, well, he didn't like it."
Court “What is the reason for this divorce? Is Anderson trying to control your money, partying away even when pregnant possibly contributing to a miscarriage or her making you try and change life by being controlling?”
Rock “No, it’s because got angry at Borsy.”
the first film is free on Amazon Prime at the moment also...
Just a reminder this is released today - I shall be watching it tonight.
Is it only available on Prime? I'm far more excited than is reasonable for a 34 year old about this!
I’ll be watching it too. I may try to watch it without alcohol.
Niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiice
It's a good watch, similar to the 1st in level of jokes.
I have never seen Borat. (I feel a sense of STW shame being bestowed upon me) Should I watch it first or just watch this one??
is it free on prime now? thats my evening movie sorted out if so!

I'd watch the first one first, but I don't think it would really matter other than topical relevence... it's a cringingly disturbing expose of what some sections of society really think...but also hillarious.
Darker than dark humour.
Think Louis theroux on acid.

SOLD!!! I'm in 😂
Will watch this later, always good fun watching his stuff, not all work for everyone, but there's usually 2 or 3 bits that are worth it!
Still laugh at the Bruno MMA fight, best trolling ever!
I seriously cannot think of anything worse than the first film, except perhaps this one.
If I'm lucky I'll never find out.

I kinda know what you mean, but the way he gets people to let thier guard down and talk freely about how ****** up they are without irony, is a master stroke. Enligntening and disturbingly frightening in equal measure.
The first one was great. This one is embarrassingly bad - if the kind hearted black lady isn’t an actor the “setup” borders on pretty exploitative.
Wow. The fertility dance. Wow.
Ditto teethgrinder!
It’s certainly an experience.
The whole scene with Rudy Juliwhatnot is, erm... indescribable and as shocking as anything I’ve seen from louis theroux and at any other time would be career ending for Rudy.
That’s not Rudy on the bed or in the bedroom. it’s clearly edited with an actor.

Is that why he’s been making excuse about it for the past couple of days.. rearranging his microphone?
I laughed most of the way through 😂
Ok, on further evidence it was him. Not a good look.
rearranging his microphone?
Thought it was 'tucking in his shirt'? 😂
Not a big fan of borat/ali g, too cringy for me but, given the Rudy 'scandal', thought we'd watch it. ...had its moments, funny, cringy and shocking
Well that's my weekend sorted! Jagshemash!

That's it though. I wasn't sold on the first film till I saw it.
Really enjoyed it, but do wonder how many were actors and how many were real.
If the latter, then I think he's really cleverly portrayed the good natured side of all factions, as well as exposing their (sometimes incredulous) beliefs. Except Rudy - here he's just shown him for the despicable **** he is.
The two Trump supporters that he stayed with were brilliant.
And yeah, fertility dance!
Wow. The fertility dance. Wow.
Ditto teethgrinder!
And yeah, fertility dance!
just seen it. the fertility dance. another wow!
Just watched it, loved it, was exactly what I expected it to be.
Fell asleep....
Says it all really.
The first one was amazing the first time I watched it in a cinema.
Tried watching it again a few years later, not funny.
Oh well, some thing are best left alone
Superb
Found it quite uplifting
His daughter was a great way to keep it fresh
Amazing that he made it in covid times, in secret!
I thought it was fairly crap until the last 10 minutes , The Covid theme redeemed it. The Guiliani thing had to be an actor as why would he cough if it wasn't. My kids watched It (17 and 19) and I did cringe half way through and advised them to watch the original as no body knew who Baron cohen was so it seemed real.
Still for a freebie it was worth it.
Watched it tonight too. Lorra laughs
His daughter, Maria bakalova, is amazing. For a complete unknown to do such an accomplished comic and fearless turn was fantastic.
You have to suspend your disbelief a lot though. We re expected to believe he spent lockdown with 2 Qanon guys, in character, with a camera crew with him? No, sorry
But fearless, ballsy comedy and Bakalova is a revalation, particularly the bit where she 'discovers herself'.
The Giuliani 'sting' is funny but we all know he's a sleazy guy, I like the bit where SBC says something about his cousin
Really? People thought that Baklova was funny or accomplished?
There was such a glaring absence of subtlety in so much of the film. The fertility dance was weird enough, why did it need to be accelerated beyond believability?
Really? People thought that Baklova was funny or accomplished?
Yep I thought she was great, she'll do well
Yeah I thought Baklova was great, I'll bet she does well
As for subtlety....?
It's Borat!
Thought Baklova was great, she'll go far
As for subtlety
Its Borat!
That’s 90 mins of my life I’ll never get back. Agree with the lack of subtlety and the Fertility dance piece was a step across the mark with regard to poor taste in my opinion.
perhaps the only redeeming factor is the continued expose of the naivety and stupidity of some American people.
Watched it last night and had to see what is real or not:

That’s 90 mins of my life I’ll never get back.
You managed to watch the whole thing? I got 15 minutes in to find it was the same jokes done badly so switched it off.
Today I've mostly been playing the guiliani clip over and over for the bit at the end:
"PUT DOWN YOUR CHRAM!"
"Please take my ah-nus instead"
"I will let you enjoy my CHRAM"
:))))))
Poor taste? Nah! Yeravinalaff! 😆
Pretty disappointing I thought, not a patch on the first one. OK that had more of a shock value as we'd not seen anything like it on that scale before but it was also just funnier. Very few laughs from me, that said if Rudy ends up in political exile as a result it will be a great film...
YEp. Me and Mrs. S laughed and gasped at about the same ratio. Baklova very good.
