Original Bruno Ending Different From What's To Be Shown In Theaters

Ouch!
Bruno has caused serious concerns within the gay community, but if the studio went with the original ending of the film, it would have been extremely more controversial.
And it's already VERY controversial!
Warning: SPOILER ALERT!
In the current cut of the film, Bruno (Sacha Baron Cohen) and his abandoned, lovesick assistant Lutz (Gustaf Hammerstan) reunite at an Arkansas cage match where the two begin to make out inside the cage while an angry mob reacts with disbelief and hurl objects at the couple.
Bruno and Lutz end up in domestic bliss with their adopted baby.
The previous ending featured a more dismal reaction for the pair!
"The cage-match kiss resulted in a violent attack on the couple. They then cut to a press event where they are announcing their marriage or plans to, I forget which. But the boyfriend is now drooling, seemingly brain-damaged, and in a wheelchair, played for laughs,” said writer Richard Day.
Day and his partner, actor Jack Plotnick were the only members of the gay community invited to an industry screening in February.
They had concerns, yet none of the other attendees felt the same.
“Then I started in and Jack joined with his thoughts. By the time I got to the bashing, the audience started defending the movie. They were annoyed with us for ruining the party,” stated Day.“I don’t know if we’re why they changed it but if we are, I regret saying anything. It would have been better to let them expose their true point of view; thanks to us they had a road map of the most egregious offenses and can also claim to have been responsive to our concerns.”
Ouch.
Not cool at all, Sacha.
Not cool at all!
