Bruno: What's So Funny? Lol!


Do you know this guy? Please, welcome! This is Bruno. He is also Sacha Baron Cohen. Maybe you remember him as Borat. But these three are not the same. Bruno is not Borat. This is a special English humour. And maybe not everyone understands it. Me, for example....
"Bruno" is a very popular and scandal comedy of 2009. Some countries even prohibited to show this film because of its homosexual topic and kiss of Bruno and other man. And I think those countries have not lost much if did not watch this movie. I watched. I am not lucky. It was just killed time. Not funny, not serious, no plot, no good actors....
Well, this is my opinion. what is yours?
P.S. Or maybe I just do not like to watch comedies about gays?...Sorry....

The new comedy: Guinness World Records.

No, no, my friends, this is not the name of any new comedy film. Though, I think it could be a very popular and really funny comedy if someone decided to make a film based on this word-famous book. Some records from there can not leave us without a smile at least. Well, it could be one of the best 21th century's comedy film.
Never mind! I've just read the article about some Guinness records and was surprised by them. Here they are! I hope they'll make you smile too. Or.... even laugh. Who knows...


Guinness World Records continues to build on the intriguing, informative, inspiring and instructional records and superlatives that have made Guinness World Records one of the most famous brands and an annual best-seller around the world.

First published in 1955, the annual Guinness World Records book is published in more than 100 countries and 25 languages and is the highest-selling books under copyright of all time with more than 3 million copies sold annually across the globe.

Each year, Guinness World Records releases a reference book containing an internationally recognized and verified collection of world records, man-made and natural.
If you were to break a world record, what would you choose for your competition?
During all the time of the book existence it’s nominates were really unique and different.

The fastest time to create one balloon dog sculpture is 6.5 seconds by John Cassidy (USA) at the Balloon Saloon store in New York, USA on 28 March 2006.

The world's longest running TV variety show is Sábado Gigante (Univision Television Network, USA), which has been broadcast every Saturday evening since 8 August 1962.

An original pair of Levi Strauss & Co (USA) 501 jeans aged over 115 years old were sold by Randy Knight (USA) to an anonymous collector (Japan) for $60,000 (£33,230) through internet auction site eBay on June 15, 2005.

Highest-time female pilot and the oldest flight instructor in the world.
Fastest to cycle the Pan-American Highway-Scott Napier sets world record
Largest tiramisu-world record set by French chefs

But also there are too extravagant records as for me… What is the most extravagant world record that you can think of?
World's Most Pierced Woman - Elaine Davidson sticks her pinkie through a hole in her tongue at a 2003 Guinness event in London. As of May 2008, she had 5,920 piercings all over her body.

World's Smallest Newspaper - British children's publication First News shows off the minuscule edition that took the Guinness record for smallest newspaper, November 2007.
I think now it’s the time to talk about new nominates, not less crazy actually.
Well, see for example a lady, who crashed more than ten autos while trying to park her car. She just closed her eyes and turned the wheel, because of being afraid of scratching the one nearby.

Or world record for having the ten longest fingernails (28 feet, 4.5 inches combined), for balancing the heaviest car on their head (352 pounds), or having the largest collection of key-chains (41,418).
Or for example – Natasha Bloomberg, a Czech girl who can beat every fan of dating sites in a number of virtual husbands.

Not yours?
Try to check out the guy who holds the record for wearing the most T-shirts at once. That's 227 T-shirts! If you can squeeze on 228, the world record could be yours!
Do you still think it’s easy to find the non-trivial idea to gain the record? You bet!

Spread


This film could be “one of the….” if it had the predictable ending. But! The end of this film is the only one thing for the sake of which you can watch it and say: “Hm… Nothing special, but…”

Well, as far as you understand, this is a comedy. The name: Spread.
Actually, I do not like films about the guys who consider them to be the best lovers only because of the fact they are young and handsome. Ashton Kutcher, who played the main role in this film, shows us exactly the same. Nothing new happens: he is lucky, all ladies are his ones and so one and so forth… But suddenly he meets a girl who is not interested in him at all. Nikki (the name of our hero) fells in love and tries to pay this girl’s attention…
‘Bla-bla-bla..’ you will say and you will be right! But stop! Do not forget about the film’s ending! There will be a surprise for you!

So, do not miss this film. You should watch it once and forget about it! Lol!

They are the best comedy actors!!!!




















My friends!

Be frank: what first comes to your mind when you see them? I think it is joy, fun, smile and tender emotions. Am I right? Please, do not forget about the fact they did not graduate from any actors' schools, universities and so ones. Their talent is always with them and they do not take money for showing this talent to us, people. They are the sincerest actors and they are so cute!


Just look at these pictures! It is impossible to teach them to behave so!

Animals are really the best comedy actors!

"Year One": well, maybe it is stupid but anyway - watch it!


Yes, yes, I know what you will say. "If it is a stupid film why should we watch it?" or something like that. Maybe you are right. Frankly speaking, I had the same thought when the friend of mine invited me to watch this film with him. I read the description, watched the trailer and said: "Oh, no! Thank you! I like comedies of course but this one is strange and stupid". Nevertheless, my friend insisted. He was just bored and had nothing to do. And I gave up.


What can I say? It should be watched once to know why critics were so negative about it. It should be watched once if you want to watch something non-serious and relaxed. It should be watched once if you want to sleep and need a soporific. And it should be watched once if your friend begs you to watch something with him (her) but does not have anything except this film. Enjoy!



"When a couple of lazy hunter-gatherers (Black and Cera) are banished from their primitive village, they set off on an epic journey through the ancient world".


P.S. I wanted to introduce you the official trailer of "Year One" but Bogger has some problems today with adding video. *sad*. Anyway, you can see it here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RTNBwIAY9Zo

What would be your best comedy film?


I’ve found the list of 100 greatest comedy movies. And you know what? The comedies of the 21st century are almost absent there! Why is it so? There are only 5 comedies of the 21st century in this list:


38. Borat - (2006) (Sacha Baron Cohen, Ken Davitian)

52. Meet the Parents - (2000) (Robert De Niro, Ben Stiller)

63. Little Miss Sunshine - (2006) (Greg Kinnear, Alan Arkin, Steve Carell)

66. Scary Movie - (2000) (Keenen Ivory Wayans, Anna Faris, Shawn Wayans)

83. The 40 Year Old Virgin - (2005) (Steve Carell, Catherine Keener)


How do you think what is the reason of it? Have we lost the sense of humour? Or is anything left for us to laugh at?


Please, pay attention that the 1st place of this list was won by the film of 1933! Here it is: Duck Soup! (see the picture above).

Well, each decade has its humour. I do not think I would laugh at this film now.
And what would be YOUR best comedy film if you made such a list by yourself?

Zombieland: a comedy or a horror??




Have you watched the new film of 2009 already? It is called "Zombieland" and it is considered to be American zombie comedy horror film. Comedy and horror together?? Hm... I think it is really stupid. But you know, this film has already become so popular and so many people like it very much. They laugh at this film. And laugh A LOT!!


You know, my strong opinion is the following: this film is so popular because of Bill Murray's presence there. But you know, one actor (even so famous one) is not enough to make a movie one of the best comedies. Moreover, this film is not funny and not scary. It is stupid!


The rating of this film is 8.3/10 according to IMDb!! Wow!


You know, I completely understand the following phrase now: the more stupid are jokes - the better is the film for the audience.


There are some jokes form the film:


1. Columbus: Fuck this clown



2. Wichita: Let's play the quiet game.

Columbus: I've actually been meaning to ask you...

Wichita: Have you never played the quiet game?



3. Little Rock: [as he is dying] Do you have any regrets?

Bill Murray: Maybe Garfield.


Are they really funny for you?


http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1156398/ - here you can find everything about this film if you did not know anything about it yet. But I bet you do! Because it is everywhere now!
