After Bruno's massive failure I'll probably wait until there's a general consensus, and then pirate it.

[Vandole]

......massive failure? that movie was a fucking glorious mockumentary.

[MF Perm tha Fineass]

I hate to be the guy that says Vandole is correct, but Bruno was brilliant. Maybe you're upset that there weren't enough dicks in it?

[Brill Weave]

Seriously, did you even watch Bruno? It was fantastic.

[Pirian]

Saw it day 1, and thought it was terribad. The whole movie felt forced and the only part I genuinely laughed at was the campfire scene.

It's like they say though, opinions are like asses -- everybody has one, and they usually like the smell of theirs best.

[Tyrath]

Bruno wasn't as good as Borat. That in no way means it was a massive failure though lol.

[Omniyoji]

Unfortunately I think the trailer showed the funniest part in the movie already

If you're referring to the track scene, I was laughing my ass off when I first saw that.

[Laugana]

I've never liked Sacha Baron Cohen from his days of AliG, can't stand his brand of 'humour'. His thing on the Oscars red carpet with the ashes earlier this week was just horrible.

[Tyrath]

If you spell hilarious as 'horrible' then sure. I couldn't stop laughing when I saw him with the Kim Jong Il urn. The thing on Ryan Seacrest was a bit over the top, but its to be expected.

[Guyverarmor]

Saw the trailer when me and the wife went to see "The woman in black" ( which was fucking awesome ! ) and I laughed all through out the trailer. Even the wife wants to see this movie..and she normally doesn't like Sacha Cohen. Day 1 people

Also, has Ben Kingsley, fuckin BOSS right there.

[GavinBandura]

An individual disliking a film makes it a massive failure, right.

This film looks hilarious, will definitely be going to the cinema to watch it. Loved the 100m sprint scene at the end.

I never said it would be a massive failure, but that his brand of humour is unappealing to me. I like the guy in other roles, eg. in Sweeney Todd.

He was referring to the 2nd post in the thread that states Bruno was a massive failure.

[Laugana]

Sorry, forgot about that post.

[Pirian]

Sorry, forgot about that post.

Really late, but how could you forget about me lol


2nd trailer was better, but it still feels lacking, but then again, I'm a conceded bastard

[Laugana]

Really late, but how could you forget about me lol

Never really thought about it, but are you the Pirian I used to play FFXI with on Cait Sith?

Didn't bother watching the trailer...

[Saga]

Only funny part was the last 30 seconds of the trailer with the 9/11 bit. Everything else looks hilarious, if you're 13. Just seems like a collection of jokes I've heard a million times that he put together into a film with no real story. A joke about trash can babies. His "gift" to the girl is his dick. He says she's talking too much instead of putting it in her mouth. He kicked a douchey kid. He swore at a woman who called him nice.

It's just not...that funny. Either I'm really jaded when it comes to comedy or most people have really low expectations for what makes them laugh.
