Bruno Gets An NC-17!

Filed under: Film Flickers > Sacha Baron Cohen

bruno-nc17.jpg

The first cut of Sacha Baron Cohen's Bruno has - not surprisingly - received an NC-17 rating from the MPAA society.

Among the "objectionable" scenes is "one in which Bruno — a gay Austrian fashionista played by Baron Cohen — appears to have anal sex with a man on camera. In another, the actor goes on a hunting trip and sneaks naked into the tent of one of the fellow hunters, an unsuspecting non-actor."

Because scenes of graphic violence are a-okay, but you can't let the kiddies know that people are - gasp! - naked under their clothes!!!

Universal refuses to release the movie with an NC-17 rating, so Baron Cohen will have to return to the editing room to make the appropriate cuts.

After all, they still need to make money off of the unrated DVDs!

While some sources are saying that Baron Cohen is struggling to re-edit the movie to conform to the MPAA's inconsistent ratings systems, another source is saying that the filmmer is just fine because "With the quantity of material available, I cannot foresee a problem. It's not even April and the film comes out July 10 so it's nonsense to say there's a struggle of any kind."

We don't doubt that Sacha will be able to appease the MPAA while still getting his point across.

Just look at Borat!

    Re: UrMajestyMsG – you getting paid to write that?



  17. 17

    i'll go see it anyway. I'm so sick of that prudish MPAA. They will let the most crazy violence get by with a PG-13 but show a flash of Male nudity and it gets an NC-17. Apparently they think that all kids will have their ears cut off or be shot int he face but don't think they will ever be naked.

    Re: Lol Girl Loves Chuck – It doesn't take much to lose it around here!!!! Keep going though, you are cracking me up!



  19. 19

    NC-17 = $$$$$
    .
    The best way to get buzz going about your movie is great publicity (such as the NC-17). How many of you lemmings will now go see it?

    Re: Melissa is always RIGHT
    LOL Not alot people are posting, are they?
    O well. Theres always time for my bullshit:
    -
    Your butt is wide, well mine is too
    Just watch your mouth or I'll sit on you
    The word is out, better treat me right
    'Cause I'm the king of cellulite
    Ham on, ham on, ham on whole wheat, all right

    My zippers bust, my buckles break
    I'm too much man for you to take
    The pavement cracks when I fall down
    I've got more chins than Chinatown

    Well, I've never used a phone booth
    And I've never seen my toes
    When I'm going to the movies
    I take up seven rows

    Because I'm fat, I'm fat, come on
    (Fat, fat, really really fat)
    You know I'm fat, I'm fat, you know it
    (Fat, fat, really really fat)
    You know I'm fat, I'm fat, come on you know
    (Fat, fat, really really fat)
    Don't you call me pudgy, portly or stout
    Just now tell me once again who's fat

    Re: Bushwack

    Not true actually. NC-17 movies tend to get no publicity whatsoever, and most theaters will not show it. They make up an extremely minuscule part of box office business. Only two NC-17 ever have actually broken the 10 million mark.



  22. 22

    bahahaha sooo funny!

    Re: UrMajestyMsG – not at all, you are sounding like you are his agent..



  32. 32

    It's amazing how the MPAA treats violence less severe than nudity. Look how many kids are taking guns to school.



  33. 33

    Re: JigSaw – no but if i were id do a fantastic job at it like everything else in my life!

    Re: Lol Girl Loves Chuck

    Showgirls and Henry & June. And even at 20 mil. Showgirls was considered a bomb.



  35. 35

    its all because they have some asshole charlie church on the mpaa committee. he will end up having to probably cut out the funniest sequences.



  36. 36

    THAT UNSUSPECTING, NON-ACTOR HUNTER NEEDS TO PRESS CRIMINAL SEXUAL ASSAULT CHARGES ON BORAT AND SUE HIM FOR PROFITTING BY SEXUALLY EXPLOITING HIM!!!!
    .
    THIS GUY EXPLOITS PEOPLE VULGARLY FOR MONEY!!!
    .
    HE IS NOT FUNNY AND CANNOT WRITE ANY MATERIAL SO HE WAGS HIS DICK AT PEOPLE AND CALLS IT COMEDY!!!
    .
    IT IS NOTHING MORE THAN THE MOLESTER DIRTBAG THAT EXPOSES HIMSELF TO LITTLE KIDS IN PARKS. EXCEPT THAT BORAT THEN MAKES MILLIONS BY BELITTLING AND HUMILIATING OTHER PEOPLE!!



  37. 37

    cant fucking wait



  38. 38

    The First Amendment is being held hostage. This is censorship. Sadly, the filmmakers will capitulate.
    "Borat" was a scream. Let's hope Azamat (Ken Davitian) is in "Bruno," too.



  39. 39

    Yeah, just what I want my kids to see at the movies - two guys having anal sex. Yup.
