justanotherfarkinfarker: Everyone always forget his gay czech fashion reporter bits too. Those are frickin classic too.


When he got the one Fashionista to agree that ugly people should all be packed on trains and sent to camps, that was beautiful.

Wait.. wait..

but Cohen isn't even American, he's British. Why the fark is Bush talking to him about it? Is everything that's culturally insulting these days just attributed to the US because why the hell not?

Besides, Borat is funny and the movie will be awesome. fark Kazakhstan. I only remember that country because I labeled it '7th level of hell' on my geography test a few years ago and Lake Aral as the lake of fire.

This is the country and the same leader that tortures and boils people alive. Uhh, promoting democracy was our goal? Don't you love the smell of hypocricy in the morning?

No, it isn't, brainiac. Read the article you linked. It's about UZBEKISTAN, not KAZAKHSTAN.

Forcing the President of the United States to explain your actions to a foreign dignitary has got to be a huge accomplishment, particularly if you aren't even American.

I'm impressed.

The only thing I've ever heard of to top that is to get your government to pass a new law for the sole purpose of forbidding some specific thing that you have done, and got away with because no one had thought to outlaw it before.

Wow. I forgot about the Andy Rooney interview. I shall youtube THAT at once.
 
2006-09-13 01:11:34 PM
Yeah. I forgot about Rooney. I think I'll watch those DVDs when I get home tonight. That show is the only thing that makes me laugh no matter how many times I've seen it, as hard as the first time I watched it.

Especially the roundtables. How can these people not know when they're being put on?

He wasn't Czech he's Austrian. Funkyzeit mit Bruno. Best one was when he asked that minister who converts gay to straight about being fabulous or eating chocolate and whether or not it's ok.

/being fabulous is a niche niche, eating chocolate is an achyatan only if you do it in the name of Christ

I was in Kazakhstan a few weeks ago. I got along really well with most everyone I met. I happened to be in a park listening to some kids play guitar at around 2 in the morning. We got to talking and one guy says to me that the only thing he knows about American humor he learned from the TV show "Alf". I said that's funny, the only thing I know about Kazakh humor I learned from Borat. He got so pissed off he got up and into my face. He was about to start throwing down until he was pulled away by his buddies. The chick I was with calmed him down and we talked about it. They are VERY sensitive about Borat. I didn't mention him again with anyone that I didn't really know for the rest of the trip.


Other than that, I friggin' love Kazakhstan! People are really nice, beer is really cheap. Ciggies are about 50 cents a pack.

/good times!

Andy Rooney....I could kind of guessed that a big headed political wonk like Rooney is a humorless fark.

lazymojo: Andy Rooney (not politician but sounds like a dumb republican)

Rooney is very liberal, and highly critical of the Bush administration...

with respect to all the previously noted borat/ali g segments- and the national anthem, throw the jew down the well square dancing, and the roundtable interview where he accuses someone of leaving a floater backstage are all awesome- the BEST moment from the show comes with the gay fashion guy character when he goes to daytona beach and finds a bunch of high school wrestlers. they act all bad ass and buff because they think theyre gonna be on MTV or some shiat, and at the end, he goes- 'now say hello, we're here for Swiss Gay TV!' and they all flip out and lose their shiat. farking priceless...

You have a time machine?
 
2006-09-13 01:23:15 PM
Damn you, submitter. Damn you to hell.

Now I have "throw the jew down the well" stuck in my head.

The Ali G movie sucked, but apparently, Borat is supposed to be decent. I love Sacha Baron, though. Man has had me in hysterics so, so, so often.

My favorites are the Ali G interviews with legit government officials / public figures.

a) Like the Daily Show, I can't figure out how the personal assistant / secretary / whatever doesn't Google before booking the freakin' interview.

b) Like Colbert, he's great at staying in character, which ironically ends up throwing the figureheads off of their game.

c) Was it Dan Rather who did a rap with Ali G at the end of one of the episodes? Can't remember, damn.

America national sport is called baseballs. It very similar to our sport, shurik, where we take dogs, shoot them in a field, and then have a party.

I saw a screening of the movie about 4 months ago, and I can honestly say that I have never laughed so hard in a movie in the theatre in all my life. The movie is an hour and a halfs worth of material that is just as, if not more funny that the skits on the hbo series. I was hurting from laughing.

This movie will be the new dave chappelle lil' jon / Will Farrell / Wedding Crashers, etc that drunk frat boys quote constantly. Honestly, as long as they understand the satirical context I'm fine with that.
 
2006-09-13 01:26:57 PM
they way they tricked people is they would set up fake corporations, get official looking letterheads, set up official looking websites and so forth so when they googled the company it would look legit.
 
2006-09-13 01:27:54 PM
I just wanted to say I'm so glad to find out that there are Ali G/Borat fans on Fark. Cheers to all of you.



/MORE WINE!
//"Furthermore, I am a bell end."

2006-09-13 01:32:24 PM
The wine tasting skit is definately the best. When Borat asks if the black dude pouring the wine is their slave, wow, just wow.
 
2006-09-13 01:37:33 PM
How about the lingering image I have of Kazakhstan being a repressive nation that tortures rendered terror suspects? Do you think Kazakhstan will devote as much time fighting that image as a movie goof on American dipshiats?

"If you do not vote for him, he willa takea power by force.!"

"I need to ah, how you say, make a shiit your house, please."

"I had job with camel for to make big sex explosions."

-Borat fricken rules. I can't wait.

I hope Meester Bush and Meester Nazarbayev will have happy time to make romance inside each other with big sex explosions--but not by force. Never.

A. No, we did away with slaves years ago.

Q. Good for them. Bad for you, yes?

A. Well, yes.

floridian62: they way they tricked people is they would set up fake corporations, get official looking letterheads, set up official looking websites and so forth so when they googled the company it would look legit.

No need. The Ali G show was produced by a run-off the mill production company. There's zillions of those and really you can't keep track of the ones that produce gag shows and those that don't. Especially with new series, with nothing on air, they'd just have to say "yeah, we'd like to get the minister to do an interview on our totally new radical youth show. What, the presenter? No, he's a total unknown, in fact, we've not settled on which one to choose yet, but definately a genuine geezer off the streets that vibes with the kids, right?"

By the time the politician is in the studio and one of his PAs might notice, it's all too late.

The daily show and The Colbert Report? Well people come on there thinking they can beat the system I guess. Or, in the case of Colbert, they didn't get the irony.

Check out Aintitcoolnews. Borat is getting amazing previews, it's so funny it's actually dangerous to your health.

Could be worse. I saw "The Producers" again the other day and I've had "Springtime for Hitler" going through my head ever since. I keep finding myself idly whistling, or even worse, singing it aloud.

He should just tell them they need a democracy like they have in Iraq.

That should go over great.
