calm down man. I’ve never seen American Pie, but if it’s not as vulgar (which is what you’re suggesting), that’s because American Pie was meant to be a movie with a plot, not a social commentary. Bruno was MEANT to be gross for that reason alone…like I said, it’s meant to test people’s comfort level. People didn’t get that though and continue to not get it.</p>
<p>Bruno was critiquing both the notion that all gays are flamboyant (his identity was clearly exaggerated) AS WELL AS the shallowness of many gay people (this is why he ended up with his publicist). It was not really meant to advance the homosexual cause or whatever you guys are saying.</p>
<p>I just checked some reviews for it and guess what, the New York Times agrees with me. haha That said, I do acknowledge that it’s not as good as Borat.</p>
<p>Finally, your reaction is exactly the kind of reaction that the film was trying to incite. It’s perfectly okay to feel that way. People have different comfort levels with this kind of thing, and I myself am slightly uncomfortable with many of the graphic scenes.</p>
