Is it 'cause he is black?

Borat sucks

Post by Midnyte_Ragebringer »

I finally decided to watch this stupid thing. It has a few humorous moments in it, but for it to be proclaimed as this phenomenally funny movie is quite a stretch.

I'm so sorry. I searched back 3 pages before creating this one.

Oh I got it. I just found it to be as redeeming as its predecessors, Springer, all the court shows, Maury, etc. They take the very worst parts of society and put them on display for ratings. He did nothing different, but make it movie length and guise it as a documentary. Like I said before, it has some funny moments.

I could have told you that, and I didn't even see the movie.

Not my type of humor. Annoying humor like that is lame imo. I don't care what political slant it might be. It's one step up from slapstick on the comedy creativity scale.

People who like Borat are probably huge fans of the David Letterman stuttering reporter as well.

it's lame I say.

That's a nice feature especially for this forum.
