Borat
Hey!
Last week i went and saw Devil Wears Prada, just beacuse of SDISJ  , but anyway today im looking forward cause im ganna see Sacha Baron Cohens: Borat.
I dont think (and i really hope) there are any jamiroquai tracks on it  .
Anyone else like Borat and Sacha Baron Cohen, i actually enjoy all of Sachas Character as i wanna be a comedian myself, i just got to find something equal smart as he did with Borat.
Anyone else seeing the film?
Im giving my review after ive seen the film. |

Hope the movie's good - I love his TV show - he's so funny - especially when he shows the American's the photos of his family in 'inappropraite' positions  - very funny 
Can't wait to hear your review as I'd love to see it

Copycat?
http://www.wired.com/wired/archive/14.11/play.html?pg=4
In the highly anticipated mockumentary Borat: Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan, second-world superstar Borat Sagdiyev (aka Sacha Baron Cohen of Ali G. fame) travels the US in search of love, understanding, and Pamela Anderson's welcoming bosom. But Borat's shtick –exquisitely inept English, caterpillar 'stache, sleazy non sequiturs – reminds us of another heavily accented, hirsute symbol of the sex: late-'90s Internet celebrity Mahir Cagri, whose Web site, www.ikissyou.org, implored women of the world to visit his native Turkey, "stay my home," and, yes, kiss him.
Turns out, we're not the only ones who noticed the similarities: "All people know Sacha Baron Cohen imitate only me," Cagri recently fumed via email. "He is stealing my character and giving bad message to USA people." Cagri, who's been struggling to start a career in show business ever since his boom-era glory days, says he intends to sue Baron Cohen. "He never contacted me or got my permission," he writes. "If possible you can help me too for stop this or find good lawyer?" Sorry, we can't do that, but we can give Cagri the third degree – and let Wired readers be the judge.
WIRED: In the mock-doc, Borat is a globe-trotting journalist. Are you also a man of letters?CAGRI: I do journalism as a freelancer sometimes. I go travel sometimes and take pictures-video-write, meet people for documentary.
Borat travels the US, examining American culture. Any memories from your visit in 1999?I can't forget party about me in San Francisco. Many people kissed me, took my signature, and took picture. America mix culture and big country, but people don't think about other people. They love their own life only and fun-sex-game-drink.
Borat plays the guitar and sings Kazakh folk tunes. Are you also musically inclined?
I can play many instruments, but best I play accordion-flute-mandolin-violin-drum-and-saz (Turkish instrument). I like Cher and Shakira. Their voice and songs nice I like it.
Borat's signature is his mustache. Didn't you rock it first?
I start first grow mustache, 10 or 15 year ago. Sometimes, I been no mustache. I'm male and mustache shows a male mature.
Borat has his movie. Any plans for the Mahir Cagri story?
I'm trying to find USA publisher, and I hope I can receive good offer from Hollywood and play my own life and share with my fans, Julia Roberts, Spielberg, David Bowie, or others, this movie.

I am SO gonna see this as I liked Cohen in 'Ali G Indahouse' and 'Talladega Nights.' I'm actually hearing fantastic early reviews, the Boston Globe gave it four stars...

That article looks very like a (dreadfully inept) attempt at poking fun at Borat himself, Deesh... not that I'm doubting you, in fact that'd be a good indicator that it's real! But the man has to take his inspiration from somewhere, after all...
Personally I prefer Ali G., because there's an element of realism in him that I don't see from Borat (at least until I read the article Deesh posted!). There really ARE people living in England like Ali G., whereas it's hard to imagine anyone quite like Borat. That being said, he's also utterly hilarious.
The film itself is very, very, VERY funny indeed. I'm not really a big fan of Jewish humour - so much of it seems to stem from the fact that it's funny because it's a Jew saying those things, and that's not how humour should work. But otherwise it's absolutely superb. There's a very funny scene when Borat has to go to the toilet in the middle of dinner with some posh Americans, and the denouement, when he meets and proposes to Pamela Anderson (who, I swear blind, doesn't seem to have a fucking clue what's happening - I really don't think she was prepared for it at all) made me almost fall off my seat laughing. Go, watch, enjoy. It's great.
Sam

Ah yes, Borat, the character with a funny accent. I think the character himself is mostly the joke, the jokes themselves get pretty old pretty fast. Therefore I wouldn't even want to see 1½ hours of him. But I think I'm a minority on this one. |

I once knew a guy from Italy and he was a 50/50 mix of Borat and Mr. Bean... you wouldn't believe the things he managed to do/get himself into. Had I videotaped him when we were in the UK I'd been a rich man today. Seriously!

I'd love to see Borat, I have heard some very funny quotes from the film and I do believe there is some reality to the character.
@ Space Clav - I think I went to school with that idiot you mentioned - LOL !!!
