I've been trying to stop my Grammar Cop ways, but this has provoked me.
It's GONNA, not 'gunna.'
It's MOS DEF, not 'most def.'
Is it too much to ask that we use proper slang, people? The nerve!!

Mos Def is a rapper sorry...I say most def. Knapp, I know my slang...You can't put grammar into slang, that's the frickin' point!
I saw it on friday way above this earth! Funny as hell! I loved the people who walked out in like the first 45 mins. and the people who walked out during the Azamat Borat fight, and than the people who watched the whole fight, than left like 15 mins. after it. That was by far the grossest part of the movie!
Great movie!

I caught Borat this weekend and while funny, I didn't think it was ALL that funny. Was thinking that this would have been more of an "intellectual" mockumentary thing, but it was more low-brow physical humor than anything. Still pretty good though, considering the level of crap coming out of Hollywood lately. And the wrestling scene was a bit too long IMO. Too much hair too, but I guess that was the point of the humor, lol.
Anyways, have you guys seen the news that a couple of the frat guys from the RV are suing the studio for supposedly tricking them into saying rascist and anti-feminist stuff? They want money to compensate for the "damage to their reputation and standing in the community" and they also want the movie to be pulled from theaters. Pretty lame, trying to cash in like this.

They're not trying to cash in, they were humiliated. Supposedly, the film crew took them to a bar, got them sloshed and put them in the mobile home. They were also told that the video wouldn't be shown in the United States.
I don't know if they have a case or not, but more and more people that were in the movie are coming forward. The frat boys didn't bother me too much because they were drunk idiots, but the little town that was supposed to be "Borat's" home town is also suing. After reading their complaints, I kind of felt bad for lauging at them.
Just a word to those who haven't seen it, they will thank me for this later. When Borat shows the picture of his son... just close your eyes if you are a straight male. Trust me.
Aside from that... enjoy! It's worth the $50 price of admission at the movie theatres nowadays.

There, fixed it for ya!
Sooo.... any man who doesn't like to see two males in a "loving act" is homophobic? That's a pretty broad brush to paint the world with.
