Borat!



According to the Daily Mail, President Bush is set to hold talks with Kazakhstan president Nursultan Nazarbayev, and among other topics, is scheduled to discuss the threat of Sacha Baron Cohen's upcoming film “Borat: Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan” to Kazakhstan's image worldwide. Late last year, the government of Kazakhstan took out a full page ad in the New York Times protesting Cohen's portrayal of the country and reserved the right to sue Cohen for "future pranks." In response, Borat released a video, whose most memorable line was "In response to Mr. Ashykbayev's comments, I'd like to state I have no connection with Mr. Cohen and fully support my Government's decision to sue this Jew."

The New York Times ripped on the movie because of its anti-semitic humor (and as Borat pointed out, Cohen is Jewish). I'd be more worried about Lethal Weapon 5. "Borat" has the potential to be the greatest movie ever made.
