Regardless of how good or bad the movie is FINALLY, more penis. I know that sounds shallow but come on. How many movies do you have out there with gratuitous boobs.

I never equate boobs to penis, but there's definitely more muff than dick on mainstream film.

You're right. But yeah, naked women, in general, are all over the movies. I don't mind but let's make it even.

Bruno was funny, but I didn't laugh as much as I laughed at Borat. Some scenes were downright disturbing, like when he was getting whipped by the plastic surgery swinger chick.

It's also disturbing that Sasha Baron Cohen is literally risking his life to get his comedy on film. He's almost TOO desperate to make us laugh.

Desperate, no. Ballsy, yes. SBC is doing a fine job of keeping the envelope pushing art of comedy alive. With the exception of maybe Sarah Silverman or Bill Maher, there are few who are willing to go there. And I love him for it. PS - Saying it wasn't as good as Borat is getting old -- many said the same thing about Around the World In A Day after Purple Rain, but the album was still a fine piece of art and miles ahead of other releases at the time.

I ended seeing it anyway because I was trying to get this girl in bed. lol

Anywho, as I thought, it was terrible.

You ever just know some movies you should not see? I knew going in I wouldn't enjoy it.

I understood what mr. Cohen was trying to do, I just he failed horribly at it.

Ron Paul is permanently on my shit list.

Does dick on film make you guys nervous? It didn't seem to be that much to me.

The college boy sitting next to me was adjusting his board shorts, if that's what you mean.

No. I just notice the guys (straight) on the thread keep mentioning how much dick was on the screen.

If his intention was to call people on their shit, make many uncomfortable, make just as many laugh, and cash in with millions, THEN HE CERTAINLY DIDN't FAIL.

When a person is used to seeing zero dick on the screen, yeah, it was a lot.

Did I say he failed? confused

More power to those who dug it. I think he could have proved his point without the Hitler jokes or the racial shit. Plus too much of it was staged to really be calling people on their shit.

i thought being in theatre (lol) had totally expunged me of all homophobic skittishness

but at that fullfrontal widescreen dick swinging shot, i just couldnt look, even tho i wanted to be strong enough to...

its like a knee jerk reaction

somehow tho, i knew when the word "bruno" was screamed, it was from "the opening" :shudder: disbelief

Part of the humor and entertainment is derived from being offended, so, yes!

Do you know what I mean though? That's part of the confrontational, shocking humor. Of course, Bruno was a walking stereotype. The people he interacted with were reduced to "types" too.

I listen to 2 Live Crew albums.

I know what you mean. I just don't think he was shocking or funny.
