Saturday with the Celebs in LA

Boratthumbsup Yesterday we went with some friends to see Borat at the Mann Criterion on 3rd Street Promenade in Santa Monica. Afterwards we went to Nobu in Malibu, (an insanely impressive dining experience). Here is a list of celebs that we saw in the theatre or  at a table near us in the restaurant. Now, you tell me which celeb we saw at which venue.

Ted Danson
more recently known for Becker than Cheers, but has a new show Help Me Help You
James Caan most recently of the TV show Las Vegas
Ray Liotta most known for Goodfellas, but I can't get his role of Unlawful Entry out of my head.
Peter  O'Malley (his dad owned the Dodgers and brought them from NY to LA) "under the leadership of Peter O'Malley, from 1970-1998, the Dodgers went 2372-2035 and won five National League titles and two World Series."

If you're really into celeb sightings, the blog Defamer is a must read.

Do You Have Your Borat Tickets?

Boratposter_1 I got our Borat tickets yesterday. It was just about the only thing that John wanted to do for his bday. In case you've been living in a cave and haven't noticed, this is the most talked about event going on right now.

Borat: Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan

Sacha Cohen (mostly known for Da Ali G show) has truly outdone himself.

I can't wait, even if we are going to have to sit in a packed theatre of laughing idiots. Saturday, 3rd Street Promenade. Heck, if they sell out before then, we might want to scalp our tickets!

Are you going?

The Washington Post writes about the uproar, "Some Kazakhs Brush Off Borat Shtick, but Others Fume"

If you want to see what all the fuss is about, and why people are saying this could be the funniest movie ever made - watch some Borat clips on YouTube.

I could not buy tickets to the theatres I wanted yesterday, but found out that many tickets are available via MovieTickets.com. You absolutely want to buy online instead of waiting in hell right at the theatre,
