I love the bit at the end of the trailer where he insults the guy's wife. Great stuff.

Big improvement. Should be fun.

I love the Borat character. I still think that "Throw the Jew Down the Well" bit is one of the funniest things I've ever seen.

The scenes with him singing the national anthem at the rodeo were filmed in nearby Salem VA.
Here's the article from the local paper from when it happened:

Caught a preview screening in NYC. Definitely the funniest movie I've seen in years. I share Jack's concern that some of the funniest stuff may have to be cut in order to score an "R" rating.

I didn't know it was going to be him screwing with real people like the tv show. But hey, that's cool. I must confess there were some cringe worthy moments in that trailer. That shot he takes at the guy's wife....ouch!

That bit was sooooo funny! Just the look on that guys face.
For some reason I really loved the shot of the bear in the back of the van.

I still love the response from last year when the Khazak government said they would sue him, and he said "I fully support you to sue this jew". Still kills me everytime I read or hear it...

Does anyone have the story from when he did the wine tasting one?
I think he almost got his ass kicked as he was hammered.
This is the video
