What was your Favorite Bruno Skit?

Bruno is still the hot topic of debate with the movie crowd for its outlandish skits and homo erotic scenes. The debate for whether or not the movie was quality or not will go on for awhile. In my video review of Bruno, I mentioned how it is a funny movie, but clearly not as good as Borat. That seems to be the consensus throughout much of the word of mouth. Even social media tools like Twitter could have pushed this neutrality opinion around, maybe even hurting the movie. Regardless of how much it made, there were still very funny scenes, even if they were fewer than in Borat. It also doesn’t help when the studio removes what was probably a very funny Michael Jackson scene
even if it would have been tasteless and bad timing.
This may end up being a movie that is funnier to watch on DVD than in theaters with the deleted scenes accounting for much of the humor that was most likely left off the rated R movie version. Out of the scenes that were in the movie, which was your favorite?
1. When he interviews Paula Abdul and makes his Mexican workers act as a table and chairs as he performs his interview of her?
2. When Bruno interviews the terrorist?
3. When Bruno brings his newly adopted black baby named OJ on to a talk show?
Twelve Monkeys buy Last of the Living movie 4. When Bruno interviews an Alabama state government official?
Resurrecting the Champ release
5. The ending MMA scene (although it was clearly scripted)
6. Other?
These are just a few of the skits that Bruno performed and although some may have been more set up than was the case in Borat, they still added to the humor. Clearly in this day and age of the internet and his characters fame growing, it was impossible to do the same type of movie as Borat with all skits leaking on the internet before they happened. Still it was a good attempt, may be the last of its kind.

Mu favorite skit had to be either when he went on the hunting trip or when he went to the swinger’s party. I loved the whole movie, but yeah, the ending was clearly scripted. Whatever, still a good movie!

@Nick I liked the hunting as well, but you got most of it in the trailer. Same with a few of the scenes. The trailer actually ruined some scenes for me because of it.
