So, I think instead of trying to analyze this movie, we should just post our favorite scenes from the movie.
Warning : Spoilers below, colored in black. Just so that we dont ruin anyone else's experience, I think we should all do this.

I thought when he had the camera Blair Witch style pointed at him with the fistful of dollars and cross was the funniest thing I'd ever seen. Ever. Honestly, the fact that the guy is Jewish and can be so incredibly mean to his own race in such an innovative way, that he deserves a standing ovation. And coming in a close second is probably the running of the Jews.

This is actually a MC "rule," but I'm happy you had the common sense to take it upon yourself. That is a great scene by the way Big Grin

It's been emotional.

I agree wholeheartedly with both those choices. I also laughed my ass off at the Pamela Anderson 'wedding sack' scene which took some serious cahones to pull off.

The whole movie was gut-bustingly funny.

The scene Tyler described above was friggin' hilarious. And then he starts throwing money at the cockroaches. That had me rolling.

Overall I thought Borat wasn't quite as funny as people were leading me to believe...I never laughed as hard or as long as I think I was supposed to. Still one of very few movies worth seeing in a theater.

The fight was easily the funniest parts in the movie if not the funniest part EVER in a movie, no joke! I couldn't stop laughing. Also when he stayed at the house and found out they were Jewish, that was hillarious!

If people can handle this kinda humor, you need to see this movie.

Obviously the fight scene has got to be the funniest. A few other scenes I enjoyed include: the rodeo before it got out of hand, the Jew house, the part where the bear scares the little kids, and when his chicken is loose on the subway. ("Careful, he bite!" lol)


I read somewhere that the drunk frat boys from the RV are trying to sue because their drunkenness made them say things that they do not believe to be true. Yeah, we've all heard that line before...cough cough, Mel Gibson, cough cough.

I saw Borat tonight and hadn't laughed that much with a film in many years. Now I feel like singing the Kazakhstan national anthem.

I can't believe noone has mentioned the dinner table scene where he says, "In my country men would go crazy for these two...not so much that one." And the conversation with the feminists was my other favourite part.
Over all I think it was the funniest movie I have seen since Super Troopers and should get serious Oscar consideration if for nothing else because of the size of balls it has to take to make something like this and make it humourous.

Since there's an already existing (and longer-lived) Borat thread with more discussion here, I'm closing this one. I've moved the other thread to the Comedy Forum, where it fits better.
