BILL MAHER IS SUBTLE

Written by Vince Mancini / 08.07.08

This is the Canadian poster for Religulous, Bill Maher and Larry Charles’ documentary about religion.  Very subtle, I thought.  I noticed that they missed Buddhism, so I sent them the picture I took of the Buddha passed out at a frat party after I drew a cock on his face.  On second glance, it might’ve just been a Korean guy, but I still say he had it coming.

BILL MAHER, LIVE AT THE BURQA STORE

Written by Vince Mancini / 07.30.08

Religulous is an upcoming documentary from Bill Maher and director Larry Charles (Borat, Curb Your Enthusiasm).  In this clip, Maher visits a burqa store in order to… uh, in order to do material, it looks like.  I like to make fun of people as much as the next guy (who’s probably a douchebag), but if I were standing in front of a scary, stone-faced Muslim, I’d at least pretend to listen to what he was saying.  I also wouldn’t show up with a chick wearing a tank top.  That’s probably the equivalent of showing up with a naked hooker covered in dog crap at a burqa store.  But hey, as long as we’re insulting the guy’s way of life for cheap jokes, why not go with "Boy, this burqa really is ‘da bomb’.  ‘Da bomb’, get it?" 

"Hey, you guys think bees convince each other that they get 72 bee virgins in the afterlife if they sting you?  Because they die right afterwards, so they’re kind of like the suicide bombers of the animal kingdom when you think about it.  Is this thing on?  I think we got a cold mike here."

RELIGGA WHAT?

Written by Vince Mancini / 06.09.08

Coming in October, Religulous is a documentary from Bill Maher and Borat/Curb Your Enthusiasm director Larry Charles that follows Maher’s quest to stomp the yards of churches, temples, synagogues, altars, and wherever scientologists pray everywhere.  On the one hand, having been bombarded with religion growing up I kind of like seeing religious people get served.  On the other, I wonder if Bill Maher has to be so goddamned (literally!) smug while he’s doing it.  I hate people who are comfortable with themselves.
