The movie was outrageous, over the top and actually quite an intelligent movie. It made several points about celebrity, homo and homophobe hype and although was uncomfortable to watch, was interesting to look at people's natural reactions- even funnier to see similar reaction on this series of comments.

I found it more interesting when I did a bit of surfing afterward to find out how it was made and to determine what was real and fake and had more respect for Sasha Baron Cohen and the production team as a result.

I didn't rely on Twitter to tell me what to think, and although I read the reviews I paid to see the movie so that I could make up my own mind about what I thought. I guess I'm not a twitter twit that needs my mind made up for me by a bunch of tards without a life.

Just another opinion.

In my opinion I think they just over exposed it - not my kind of humor, but every time I turn on the net - thier was a clip. Turn on the tv there was a clip - and basically it was down right looking to offend... I named him with a traditional black name --- OJ....

Cohen MUST be a fag, his movies SUCK. I be he sucks cock for real, as well.

I pity the people that went and then Tweeted about it.

Couldn't they tell it was going to be utter crud from the write ups and adverts ???

Movie is really great!

I agree with... one of you guys, anyone that saw that movie and thought it wasn't a gay parody was blind or really out of it. But that's why it was funny. Just like Borat made fun of foreigners this movie made fun of gays. Who hasn't seen humor in that culture? I'm not even gay at all, but think it's funny stuff. Why would a homophobe watch this movie anyways? That's like saying nazis would hate this movie. Or skinheads. It was obviously an outrageous comedy and that's the only reason anyone wants to see it. Nobody is going to turn gay from watching it. The star of the movie isn't even gay. People need to get with the times.

As for Twitter, it's slightly possible that a bunch of homophobes have nothing better to do but Twitter each other. Twitter rocks!

The movie is funny much and is worthy for watching again...

Twitter didn't do anything toward this sucky movie.

It was a sad attempt at soft porn and frankly I'm surprised that it bilked as much money as it did from the pockets of mindless movie-goers.

The $30 mil would have been better spent donated to a worthy charity.

I doubt if Twitter really cost this movie any money. Twitter is a form of social sharing. The tweets simply reinforced individual opinons about an over-hyper piece of crap. People were just excited to find, "Hey, it's not just me... this is a bad movie".

I thought all publicity was good publicity. Apparently the introduction of Twitter has changed this philosophy?

What happened to the "good old days" when a movie didn't bring in enough money because it just wasn't good?

Why do we have to blame twitter? Why arent the people who wrote the review responsable?

Do people really have that much of a sheep mentality? Can people not make decisions for themselves any more? What a sad situation.

In my opinion, people would value the opinions of people they know and trust. How do you know if people on twitter have the same taste/sense of humor as you?

I am not defending the film, just commenting on the role of twitter in the situation.

Sounds to me like Twitter has turn up some very good redeeming qualities. Or maybe all the twitters out there deserve an extra pat on there back. Also sounds like a positive impact on the box office for a change!
