It's weird because if they remember him to the point of not being able to film it, then his earlier work was more than successful. I'd love to see more from him though.

Borat 2 was not a good movie at all, he completely forgot how to do the character, the accent sounded nothing like it did in Da Ali G Show or Borat 1, and he focused way too much on the cheesy lines like "Very nice," instead of what actually made the character really funny in the original show and the movie. He didn't have the true wit or humor that Borat did originally, it felt like it was someone else doing a really bad impression of Borat, not actually Borat. He definitely needs to keep Borat retired unless he can remember how to do the character again.

@@Masterpieceman16 I highly doubt it, if he lost his touch he lost his touch, age and more time away from the character isn't going to improve him, it will have the opposite effect. I don't think he even cares about the character much anymore, he only used the 2nd movie to push a political message before the elections, the main goal obviously wasn't just making a really funny movie.

It was staged. The whole thing was staged. Everyone laughs at Borat's "victims" because they don't realize it's fake... whilst everyone at home is being fooled by the promotional team who puts on ridiculous productions like this to further perpetuate the con job. The joke is on you. SBC is no hero. He's pretty good, but he not THAT good. 11:34 - Look carefully and honestly at that frame. It's stage-lighted for film. That's "Hollywood magic" right there, in front of your face. Sure, there was probably a lot of improv, but everyone knows they're starring in a movie.
