An Austrian culture minister is pushing movie-goers to boycott Sacha Baron Cohen's new movie Bruno.
Austria's British envoy Emil Brix has blasted Cohen's new satirical comedy, in which he plays an Austrian gay fashionista, insisting the Brit's latest satirical is full of "cheap" gags.
In the film, Bruno declares he is determined to become Austria's most famous citizen "since Hitler" and even calls convicted rapist Josef Fritzl the embodiment of the "Austrian dream." Brix says, "It's totally inappropriate. Everybody should speak up against that."
Oh Emil get over yourself! Get your panties out of a bunch and learn how to take a joke. Maybe Bruno should've set you up with a tea bagging from his bare balls, for the movie... Then you'd have something to be upset about. :)

This movie is one big excuse for people to whine and threaten lawsuits. They should know the drill by now. Get over it.

@Amy - Agreed with you here, too! Everyone knows that Sacha Bara Cohen, ahem Bruno (haha), straddles the territory on almost anything and it's unfortunate that it paves the way for subsequent criticism. That Austrian diplomat should grow some balls!
