I'm watching Bruno right now. Love the Ron Paul scene.  ;D

Favourite and Sacha Baron Cohen Movie do not belong in the same sentence.  But if there was a gun to my head forcing me to pick a favourite, it would have to be Talladega Nights.  The only movie I could stomach him in, and I didn't even like that movie

I have only watched Borat, however he'll never be my favorite actor.

Sacha Baron Cohen is one of those people that I just plain can't understand the appeal.  He isn't funny to me at all-very contrived and self conscious which kills any humor I might find.
Seems to me he is best used as a supporting actor without a whole lot of screen time; a (very) little of him goes a looooooooong way.

Wow, you like him better than I do  ;D

I can't stand him at all.

Reminds me of the reactions people had to Andy Kaufman.  People either loved him or they hated him.  Not much in between
I'm a big fan of Andy Kaufman, btw.

I think SBC is hilarious but I can see how he isn't everyone's cup of tea. Some of the sexual scenes in Bruno were pretty cringeworthy even for someone like me who isn't easily grossed out.

The real question now: Borat vs. Zardoz?

(Having seen both movies, yeah, I gotta go Borat on this one.)

Don't really care about SBC. However, I'm interested to see how he does as Freddie Mercury in that planned biopic coming out in a few years.

Feeling kinda sick to my stomach now. Can't imagine that a$$hat playing Freddie.

I'm a Freddie fan and I think it's fair to to say there is kindred spirit between FM and SBC.  I think he'll do a splendid job.

I'm a Freddie fan and I can't say that I agree...but everyone has their own opinion!
