| I realized somewhere along the line seeing these trailers I've seen the Bruno character somewhere before. YouTube - Terry Goes Home - Reno 911 Miami Terry+Eurotrash=Bruno. |

+10 Internets | I hope you also realized that the character Bruno was in existence way before Terry and Reno 911. Cohen's characters have been around for over 10 years now.

+2 Internets | Caught the screening of this today at my theater... all I can say is that it's outrageous and completely over the top, I don't even know what to think of it. Some parts were hilarious, most parts were very awkward. I'd say the satire was pretty effective, but I think the movie's um, shall we say, sight-gags far overshadowed the message at times. And by sight-gags I mean Spoiler Alert, click show to read: Last edited by Malice; 07-10-2009 at 02:46 PM.. |

+19 Internets | How is this guy any different from Tom Green? He's pulling the same "boogabooga I'm gonna make you feel uncomfortable" routine that Green did for years and was reviled for. I don't understand what makes Sasha Baron Cohen such a genius. |

| The difference was that Tom Green was actually going up to people and yelling "boogabooga" in their face. Cohen is walking up to homophobes, engaging them in semi-awkward conversation about how much they hate fags, and then in the middle of the conversation whipping out a dildo and felating it. With Cohen there is at least a little bit of point to what he does. He did the same kind of thing in Borat at the rodeo. He tries to get rednecks, racists, homophobes to look stupid and I am far more ok with that than with Tom Green. |

Cohen clearly isnt deep like a thesis. But Tom Green would put a plastic ass on his face and dance around people going "Im the ass face! Im the ass face!". Id say Cohen's stuff is slightly deeper than South Park, which isnt saying much, but there is a point to it.
