I watched the Oscars intermittently last night, caught between playing Angry Birds on my iPhone and looking for the actual “nip slip” from JLo online. However, I missed the one thing I actually wanted to see, which was Sacha Baron Cohen as THE DICTATOR on the red carpet. It seems like the Oscars, after allowing Baron Cohen to show up, relegated him to the background, effectively silencing him anyway.
Thanks to Monday morning recaps my life can finally be complete. Well, I won’t go that far, but at least we can all now be amused by the antics of Baron Cohen’s Admiral General Aladeen as he seemingly douses an unamused Ryan Seacrest with the “ashes of Kim Jong Il.”
Pretty funny stuff. I wonder if this will make it into the actual film…
THE DICTATOR opens on May 11th, 2012.
