I still can’t understand whether the rest of the audience in the theater (filled with mostly suburban teenagers) were laughing for the same reason I was laughing. And whether that matters. I want it to matter, but then maybe it shouldn’t.

I, of course, posted first.
This brings us back to my Beavis and Butthead theory:
You said ahnus.

Okay, are we connected or what? Cindy and I are in different parts of the city and both thought of the same line about 4 minutes apart. Guess I should sign in and look at comments before I post–

“…you mean, the man who tried to poot the rubber fist up my ahnus was…a homosexual?

I was slightly disappointed too, but for a different reason. I realized that I enjoy the skits much better. Forcing the interaction with dimwits into a narrative structure ended up decreasing my enjoyment of it. If it had been an hour and a half of the usual Borat shtick I would have loved it even more. Although I laughed the hardest at the wrestling, which of course was part of the narrative structure, so there you go.

Truth is, I was a little disapponted in it. The main reason is that all of the best lines were included in a 30-minute preview I’d already seen. I also think I’d anticipated it for so long that nothing could have lived up to my expectations. Much as I love Borat (Bruno, too), I’m really an Ali G girl at heart.
