I forgot about that reverend been so long since I saw Porky's movies. It's funny how they will spend their entire days looking at stuff they know will offend them just so they can be all rightious about it later on. You want to tell these people to get a real job and maybe they won't have so much free time on their hands.

IF....the threat is real, I would not want to be on his security staff.

Judging him by his movies, don't be surprised when someone kills him. It seems though terrorists really don't have a sense of humor.

WE have had bombings by the IRA since the turn of the centuary.

From Borat, to Bruno, to Beefcake.

Hopefully it is a stunt because London is definitely a hotbed for terrorism so if it is true he should be very careful.

London is not a hotbed for terrorism. Where you read that

On the other hand, this means some terrorists watched Bruno. Ha!

They have to have a sense of humour to have beards like that

Yeah, but Cohen has proven time and time again that he'd do anything for publicity. Especially after Bruno has tanked at theaters.

Bruno and Borat are really funny but come on, it's just like all those so called "reality shows" which are all but reality. The terrorists in the movie are merely actors.

I have always felt that playing f*ck f*ck games with very bad people removes you from my "empathy" radar. Just like those journalists and peace-nicks go to North Korea thinking they are immune. Like the people who pretend like they are above it, and immune to the repercussions...

Uhm....

This is one time I hope the terrorists win.

I expected that to happen. not surprising. The fact is that he went to a region that has a history of violence and conflicts to make a funny matter out of it. was just plain stupid on Sacha's part. I actually find it amazing he made it out alive.

lets hope that it will just become a war of words not actions.

I hate the idea of siding with Al Qaeda on anything

I guess Sacha will need to hang out with Salman Rushdie for a while.

I agree with you +1.

I love all his characters & think he's a genius, & I hope he does invent a new character so we get another hilarious movie like Bruno & Borat, too bad he'd be recognized as Ali G that show was phenomenally funny!!
