Of course the big news over here at the moment, isn’t the Congressional elections happening today, but the way BORAT took out the #1 spot at the Box Office over the weekend.
Surprised? You shouldn’t be. It was directed by Larry Charles, one of the masterminds behind Seinfeld, Curb Your Enthusiasm and Entourage. And how many of you remember Mahir Cagri, the guy who stormed the net back in 1999, the days of the Dancing Baby? He claims he was the original inspiration for Borat and he intends on suing Sacha Baron Cohen.
Cohen, meanwhile, is in negotiations to make a film based on his character Bruno. Last night at the Cup drinks we were talking about this clip where Bruno takes on the Frat Boys during Spring Break. It’s a classic.
Biggest news? What news are you watching Cam? Everywhere I have looked the last 4 days has been the elections. The only moment I saw anything on Borat was the last 30 seconds of an NBC report last night.
I don’t need to watch “the news” to know what the real news is Thomas! I AM THE NEWS.
How very silly of me to forget that Cam. Deepest Apologies.
That’s ok Thomas, no hard feelings. Remember – it happens here first. Even if it doesn’t really happen at all.
