I mean, I hate to break it to some of you guys, but camera guys/sound crews are not, in fact, invisible.

They stage themselves as filming for a television show...for that kind of thing, you would kind of like...NEED camera and sound crew.


Yea, thats how they do it.

In the Ali G Show (USA), they used letters with the official HBO letterhead to get people to interview.

Ali G used a tv show for 'street kids'.

Borat used a tv show for 'Learning American Culture for Kazakhstan'

Bruno used a tv show for 'Austrian gay TV'.

Indahouse really sucked, I wonder if he will use that character in a semi-real sense like he did with borat and now with bruno.

For those of you wondering, he probably is not going to do an Ali-G or another Borat movie due to the fact that those characters are too well known by the public. He has effectively "retired" these characters, he said so himself.

Ah, ok. Indahouse still sucked though. It was like an actual movie and no live jokes on the public or anything.

And to the sub argument going on in this thread, of course it's not all real. If you think we think it's 100% real then the joke's on you. Obviously it's a movie, so they create a lot of false situations; like the Pamela Anderson kidnapping for example. The movie still has a plot, so the climax of the plot line. All the filler jokes along the way are the good parts. Some of these people are duped into thinking he's got a camera and crew there and is doing some show or documentary, when he's really using them for his jokes in his movie. Duh.

If you don't like the candid camera/silly humor that's another thing. You're entitled to that.

These sites might be of more use than a StarCraft site, where the majority of posters look on WCIII as the dense misformed fetus produced during Blizzards latest miscarrige.

Ok, I guess I didn't realize it was being covered by the fact that they were an actual film crew, so I guess I was wrong.

However, some of the reactions ((stripper (prostitute?) (Dominatrix?)) and the people at the talk show), idk, they just seemed really not genuine.

Why is it important that they be totally real and unstaged? It's a movie, entertainment for the masses.

Because, the whole premise of this movie is that he is trolling people who have no idea. . .

Anyway, this is the best sketch, imo:

An ugly planet. A bug planet.

Haha yeah I was thinking about this earlier

One of the big things that borat brought on was the whole borat quoting spree. Everyone was using the "HI FIVE, ITS NICE" stuff at every opportunity they got. Im curious as to what it will be like when bruno comes out. Whether people's homophobia will stop them from quoting just in case they are misinterpretted.
