Whoa...so I'm finally watching Borat on HBO on demand simply because Mel likes to laugh. Refer to Flight of the Conchords, also on HBO - but then again as a New Zealander pointed out to me, the humour is rather local, and since Mel did grow up in Australia, he gets the humour more then me but it is funny.
I didn't see Borat when it first came out because I was in Japan, so now I'm watching it. First ten minutes? My mouth is dropping more than I am laughing. The things people get away with these days, no wondrer Japan didn't want to show it there. I'm cringing more than laughing...OMG he is on the NYC subway, damn New Yorkers CAN be nasty.
