More SBC Brüno BS: Friend or Phobe?

Now we give permission for all the bitching, complaining, laughing, applauding, etc. to commence. Sacha Baron Cohen's much-talked about and much-maligned in some quarters flick Brüno: Delicious Journeys Through America for the Purpose of Making Heterosexual Males Visibly Uncomfortable in the Presence of a Gay Foreigner in a Mesh T-Shirt finally unspools this weekend and folks can finally make up their own damned mind. (Here's the full theatrical trailer in case you've somehow missed seeing it.)

More drama: Some in the Austrian press claim it's based on a real person.

Last night on the Late Show with David Letterman, SBC showed up in his full "gay fashionista" regalia and did the Top 10 list - topic being reasons to go see Brüno. Most of it was pretty stupid, but I definitely liked Reason Number 6: "Don't you want to see a crazy gay Austrian who isn't the Governor of California?" (Touché on that one.)

The flick will prob make a shitload this weekend; as of this writing it's already done $1.6 million from just 700 theatres' midnite showings. We wanna know if you think SBC is a great satirist, or if he's jumped the shark. Click here to see the Letterman Top 10 list, and if you've actually seen the flick let us know what you thought of it. Just note that this ain't Amazon - if you haven't seen it don't comment on it, ok? Danke! (Yes, I know... that's German.)
