1. No, you're not.
I'm also sick of seeing him everywhere.

9. I agree.
It's just aggravating. I might have been interested in seeing the movie if I didn't hear about it all the time

3. I once had a friend like him, if I may offer an analogy.
I understood what he was trying to do, and i could appreciate it.

But a LITTLE bit of him went a LOOOONG way, knowhutImean?

And he never ONCE stopped at a little.

4. Never found him funny as Ali G
Don't find this Borat creation funny. Not my type of comedy.

5. I can't stand him. I've probably seen less than 10 minutes, but
I really cannot stand him. I think his "humor" is stupid.

8. Borat was on the TDS last nite
He had Jon Stewart laughing so hard at one point that he had to turn his back to the audience.

10. But what a brilliant marketing campaign.
After all that, the movie better be good. That's all I have to say.

12. I've never seen his act.
Never watched Da Ali G show.
Nothing.

But the movie looks kind of funny.

13. Seems like a one-trick pony
I can see the schtick being mildly amusing for a skit or two... but to carry it on for a movie seems a bit too much.

Plus, he kind of reminds me of Andy Kaufman, and I hated that hack. I don't hate Borat.

Yet.
