I probably won't be seeing this one....although the satire seems on target.

[LottieDah]

They only love Sasha Baron Cohen when he mocks the right...

[Blood of Tyrants]

I doubt that many people will see it.

[reagan_fanatic]

After seeing the hotel room scene in Borat’s last movie, I’m convinced Sasha Cohen is a turd burglar himself. No sane straight guy would do something like that.

[elhombrelibre]

The film will mostly mock the Right. The Left only tolerates those who agree with them.

[SolidWood]

I didn’t like Baron-Cohen... until he landed with his butt in Eminem’s face. No one deserved this more than this shameless blob of trash.

[pennboricua]

no need to, we can see the same thing in any gay rights parade if we have an inkling to see such behavior and worse, it is not made believe.

The Bible is very clear about what God thinks of homosexual acts. In Leviticus 18:22, Leviticus 20: 13, and Deuteronomy 23:17-18, participating in homosexual acts is called “abomination.” In 1 Corinthians 6:9-11 and 1 Timothy 1:9-10 Paul says those who “go to bed sexually with a man” are violating sound doctrine and will not inherit the kingdom of heaven. In fact, the word translated in the quotes above was a Greek word that Paul apparently invented to be clear what he was talking about. In Romans 1:26-32 Paul said that God “gave up” those who would not acknowledge him as God to homosexual acts and other sins, such as murder and disobedience to parents.

...Brad Luna, a spokesman for HUMAN RIGHTS CAMPAIGN..

C’mon Brad—you’re acting like a Special Olympian. (A little Presidential humor, there.)

[MuttTheHoople]

C’mon, Baron....GET REALLY EDGY!!!! Play Ragheadi al-Goatlover, the Muslim performance artist! Do the act in Saudi Arabia! Pi$$ on the Black Stone of Mecca!!! I think everybody will get a HUGE laugh out of that!

Eminem admitted that was a pre planned publicity stunt.

[posterchild]

"We strongly feel that Sacha Baron Cohen and UNIVERSAL PICTURES have a responsibility to remind the viewing public right there in the theater that this is intended to expose homophobia."

I've not seen any of his movies and have no intention of starting now, but it is extremely arrogant for some outside organization to presume to tell an 'artist' what his product is intended to do and how that message should be expressed to the audience.

[SolidWood]

I’m not so sure. Could be, but Eminem might have said that to play down the humiliation. Do you know whether Baron-Cohen has admitted that Eminem knew about it?

[frogjerk]

Another bunch of people I could care less about.

[mark3681]

BFD! Tell them to get over it!
We’re expected to.

[Vigilanteman]

The Bible is very clear about what God thinks of homosexual acts.

The clearest statement is in the Book of Genesis when the Sodomites press against Lot's house demanding access to the visiting holy men. God was rather intolerant of their "alternative lifestyle", wasn't he?

[GSWarrior]

GLAND does not desire accurate depictions of homosexuals in the arts. They are in favor of censorship and only want positive depictions of homosexuals.

[a fool in paradise]

Hmm, they didn’t voice the same outrage at the Hollyweird youtube clip against Christians over the prop 8 measure.

Thanks for the links. Shows then that Eminem doesn’t mind a male crotch in his face.
