Black Knight of Keno Posted November 11, 2006 Share Posted November 11, 2006 Yeah, thought it would be time for a lawsuit. I would've just expected it to be from Kazakhstan instead of two idiot frat boys who try to rip off the movie industry for some money Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TSR Posted November 11, 2006 Share Posted November 11, 2006 I think the world needs a lesson on humor. It seems to lack knowledge of it atm... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoxStar Posted November 11, 2006 Share Posted November 11, 2006 Not sued over the Borat Character, but because of their inclusion in the film. Misleading thread title. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dark jedi 8 Posted November 11, 2006 Share Posted November 11, 2006 lol. i personally think they deserve the shame they get but instead of sueing a film company they should just stop drinking or take it a bit easier next time. i know Cohen pissid off alot of people when making/releasing that movie but it was after all just intended to be a joke.

Datheus Posted November 12, 2006 Author Share Posted November 12, 2006 Not sued over the Borat Character, but because of their inclusion in the film. Misleading thread title. But it's the type of humor that the Borat character uses that is embarrassing to them in the first place. If this were family friendly Candid Camera, they'd probably not be suing.

IG-64 Posted November 12, 2006 Share Posted November 12, 2006 They signed, they're responsible, drunk or not. they probably shouldn't have been drinking so much anyways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Sitherino Posted November 12, 2006 Share Posted November 12, 2006 I don't buy this loss of reputation, etc. crap. If they were drunk enough to do that on camera, they've no doubt been drunk enough to do it in any situation. Plus maybe they shouldn't have been assholes in the first place, then they wouldn't have any issue. Bottom line, **** 'em. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nalukai Posted November 12, 2006 Share Posted November 12, 2006 The film "made plaintiffs the object of ridicule, humiliation, mental anguish and emotional and physical distress, loss of reputation, goodwill and standing in the community," the lawsuit said. most frat boys do that anyways without being in a movie.
